This study analyzes international historical trends in the use of different types of materials in dental practice. The author describes the chemical properties of their ingredients and the potential and observed adverse effects in patients and dental technicians resulting from clinical or occupational exposure to various metals like beryllium, used to produce metal alloys. The growing use of various products (resin cements, ionomer cements, aesthetic restorative materials, resins, endodontal cements, and others) based on the compound bisphenol-A, whose chemical structure is similar to that of estrogen. Considering the demographic and contemporary work force characteristics of those involved in dental practice in the Brazil, the study highlights the possible effect of the use of these materials in both male and female patients and all age strata, as well as in health professionals with occupational exposure to products containing bisphenol-A.

Dental Clinics

Currently, the number of private dental clinics is growing. However, there is also mandatory medical insurance for free dental care. The purpose of this study is to study the costs of health insurance in comparison of income and expenses of dental practice by type of treatment. The study examined all medical expenses for dental care, purchase of dental materials, depending on the type of dental treatment. The economic significance of expenses and revenues for dental materials was calculated depending on the type of treatment, as well as the optimal amount of remuneration for employees. In our study, regular dental examinations are covered by insurance, since patients who visit dental clinics for regular dental examinations carry out preventive measures at the expense of mandatory medical insurance. In the course of the study, we calculated the economic significance of preventive measures and the cost-effectiveness of dental care. Thus, early diagnostics of dental pathology and high-quality provision of dental services at the early stages under the mandatory medical insurance policy are effective for improving the entire management balance of dental clinics.

Allergic stomatitis or stomatitis venenata is a hypersensitivity reaction caused by an allergen from medicines, foods,dental materials (restoration material, prosthetic, orthodontic appliance, mercury, acrylic, cobalt). This report willdiscusses the management of food allergic stomatitis. The common cause of food allergy in adult patients are orange(citrus fruit), nuts, fish, marine fish and wheat. Oral manifestations of allergic stomatitis begin with multiple vesiclesand becomes fibrin-covered ulcers with erythematous edges accompanied by inflammation and pain. The patient was a53-year-old woman who has suffered stomatitis since 6 months ago, and had seen dentist in private practice andgovernment dental-practice (hospitals and health centers). The patient has an a allergy history. Intra oral examinationfound the presence of multiple ulcers on the buccal mucosa upper right, cheek mucosa lower right and tongue. Thefinal diagnosis of the case is allergic stomatitis due to daily food alergic base on anamesis, clinical examination andlaboratory tests. Treatment to prevent allergic stomatitis causes, symptomatic therapy, and topical corticosteroids. Itwas concluded that management of allergic stomatitis should avoid the food as primary causes, giving mouthwashcontaining analgesic/anti-inflammatory and topical corticosteroids.

The SARS-COV2 outbreak began as a zoonotic transmission, with Chinese horseshoe bats (Rhinolophus sinicus) and pangolins being the most likely origin of the infection. Once the  patient has been infected, the virus is significantly present in the nasopharyngeal and salivary secretions.  The professionals who are most directly exposed to the risk of contagion are dentists since the evolutionary process of virus infection occurs due to the inhalation of particles in the dental environment, the formation of aerosols during practice, and what is more important, in the expectorations emitted by the patients. Therefore, it is necessary to act diligently in professional practice, as well as take the necessary preventive measures to avoid the spread of the infection. The appearance of this new disease forces us to modify all the sanitary measures that have been taken concerning dental care by the professional, as well as auxiliary personnel and the protection of patients, requiring strict sanitary control by the authorities of health. In the university environment, the changes that must be made to allow an open channel of communication between students, teaching, administrative and hygiene personnel must continue to prevent this and future diseases.  The aim of this article is to propose a protocol for dental clinical care, considering the real conditions and needs that prevail in our practice, highlighting the risk and preventive measures that the dental professional must consider, as well as the management of patients.

Increased Risk

Cleft lip and palate (CLP) is the most common of craniofacial anomalies in humans. CLP results from disruption of embryonic processes during orofacial development; while syndromic clefts may have clearer aetiology, non-syndromic clefts are heterogeneous in aetiology. It is important for GDPs to understand the classification of CLP and the structure of centralized cleft centres in order to communicate with cleft teams. This article aims to clarify the role of GDPs within cleft management and discusses challenges in maintaining oral health in this group of patients, including increased risk of dental caries and periodontal disease, dental anomalies and psychosocial considerations. CPD/Clinical Relevance: The GDP should be responsible for maintaining good oral health for the patient with cleft lip and palate, focusing on prevention from a young age and restorative work if needed.
