MEV - Biofilme apical em dentes decíduos de humanos, com e sem vitalidade pulpar
Keywords in Portuguese
biofilme apical

infecção extra-radicular
lesão periapical
microrganismos
Abstract in Portuguese
O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar, por meio de microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV), a presença de microrganismos sob a forma de biofilme na região do ápice radicular de dentes decíduos de humanos, com diferentes graus de patologia pulpar e periapical. Dezoito dentes foram selecionados em três situações clínicas específicas: dentes decíduos portadores de vitalidade pulpar (Grupo I), portadores de necrose pulpar sem lesão periapical visível radiograficamente (Grupo II) e portadores de necrose pulpar e nítida lesão periapical visível radiograficamente (Grupo III). Após exodontia, os dentes foram lavados com solução salina e imersos em solução de tripsina a 0,03 g/mL por 20 minutos. A seguir, foram lavados com solução tampão de cacodilato de sódio a 0,1M e armazenados em solução de Karnowsky modificada. Após cinco dias, os dentes foram seccionados e desidratados em soluções crescentes de etanol e submetidos à secagem no ponto crítico, fixados em "stubs" e metalizados para análise em MEV. Nos dentes do Grupo I e II, a superfície radicular estava recoberta por fibras colágenas, sem a presença de bactérias, em 100% das amostras. Nos dentes portadores de necrose pulpar e nítida lesão periapical visível radiograficamente (Grupo III), o ápice radicular apresentava ausência de fibras e presença de áreas de reabsorção com microrganismos em seu interior, representados predominantemente por cocos e bacilos, porém filamentosos e espiroquetas também foram observados, em 100% dos casos. Assim, observou-se que houve a presença de microrganismos sob a forma de biofime apical na região do ápice radicular apenas nos dentes decíduos portadores de necrose pulpar e nítida lesão periapical visível radiograficamente.

Abstract in English
The purpose of this study was to evaluate, by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the presence of microorganisms organized as biofilms in the apical root third of vital and nonvital human primary teeth. Eighteen teeth were selected in three clinical situations: Group I - pulp vitality, Group II - pulp necrosis without periapical lesion and Group III - pulp necrosis with well defined radiographically visible periapical lesion. After extraction, the teeth were washed with saline and immersed in 0.03 g/mL trypsin solution during 20 minutes. Next, the teeth were washed in 0,1M sodium cacodilate buffer and stored in receptacles containing modified Karnovsky solution. After 5 days, the teeth were sectioned, dehydrated in an ethanol series, critical-point dried with CO2, sputter-coated with gold and examined by SEM. The results showed that in the teeth of Groups I and II, the root surface was covered by collagen fibers, without the presence of bacteria in all specimens (100%). In the teeth with pulp necrosis with well defined radiographically visible periapical lesion (Group III), the root apex showed no collagen fibers and presence of resorption areas containing microorganisms (cocci, bacilli, filaments and spirochetes) in all cases (100%). The presence of microorganisms organized as biofilms was detected only in the primary teeth with pulp necrosis and radiographically visible periapical lesion.
