Conclusion: claimants are mostly women, the most compromised dental specialties are endodontics, implants and prostheses, and most patients request only apologies/explanations about the facts and provided dental healthcare. The public and private mediations are not entirely comparable since data sources are dissimilar and contain partial information, so it is not possible to conclude about their differences.

Unerupted mandibular permanent second molars in Radiographicanalysis
Conclusion: S tatistically significant differences between cases and controls was found in all variables. The predictive model can identify likely molars with or without natural eruption. It is necessary to have further studies with population samples to establish what would be the normal values to diagnose this condition at an early stage.

Influence of the Passive Evaporation of adhesive on the conductance of dentin
ABSTRACT: Aim: Determine the influence of time of passive evaporation of the solvent in a universal adhesive on the hydraulic conductance and permeability of dentin in an ex vivo human model. Henceforth, 60 healthy non-occluding third molars, indicated for therapeutic extraction/removal, of informed and consented patients aged between 18 and 30 years, were used here in. First, extracted teeth were incorporated into epoxy resin blocks and then dentin disks (1mm +/- 0.1 mm thick) were prepared. Dentin was acid etched with 35% ortho-phosphoric acid for 15 seconds in order to remove the smear layer and obtain permeable dentin...

Biomaterials in maxillary sinus lift for dental implants
Conclusiones No se describen diferencias entre l os diferentes biomateriales utilizados en procedimientos de aumento de senos maxilares. El uso de biomateriales adicionales pareciera no ofrecer beneficios medibles al tratamiento. La técnica quirúrgica indirecta puede ser asociada a un menor número de complicaciones. Son necesarios más estudios de ensayos clínicos aleatorizados, con tamaños de muestra mayores, variables controladas y seguimientos a largo plazo para establecer conclusiones.ABSTRACT: Objectives The main objective is to describe the techniques and conditions in which the various biomaterials are used ...

Fibrin membrane versus connective tissue graft as gingival recession treatment
RESUMEN: Este caso cl ínico de boca dividida a 6 meses tiene como objetivo comparar los resultados obtenidos con una membrana de fibrina rica en plaquetas y leucocitos (L-PRF) y un injerto de tejido conectivo (ITC) en el tratamiento de recesiones gingivales clase1 de Miller en un paciente con biotipo gingival grueso. El resultado muestra que el uso de una membrana de L-PRF provee un parcial cubrimiento de la recesión y un menor malestar subjetivo del paciente cuando se compara con el ITC. Sin embargo, el ITC proporciona un mayor porcentaje de cubrimiento radicular y un mejor resultado estético que la membrana de L-PRF...
