One hundred patients completed a questionnaire on their anxiety level before and after surgical intervention. One dental piece was extracted per patient, and the groups were divided based on the subvariable procedure complexity into the Impacted Teeth Group (n=50) and the Erupted Teeth Group (n=50). Based on the frequencies, data were gathered to form subvariables such as gender, dental arch (the area where the extraction was performed), and the frequency of previous surgical treatments. The anxiety level was assessed using the modified Corah scale. The data were transferred to the SPSS v22 statistical program. The U Mann Whitney test was used to compare the anxiety level based on procedure complexity, gender, and dental arch, while the Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare it with the frequency of previous surgical treatments. A significance level of α<0.05 was considered.

(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2022-02-10) Cornejo Martínez, Jocelyn Isabel; Ascanoa Olazo, Jimmy Antonio
Objective: To determine the latency time of 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine at different temperatures using the upper infiltrative anesthesia technique. Material: The sample consisted of 60 patients who came with dental pain in the upper dental arch. The patient was thoroughly informed about the study, and upon their consent, the informed consent form was signed. The preparation of the syringe containing the anesthetic solution, 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine, was performed. The study included two groups: one at room temperature and another at 37°C, heated in a water bath. A digital thermometer was used to measure the temperature. Only one operator was involved in all cases, who administered the infiltrative anesthesia in the upper arch. The latency time was determined with a stopwatch and recorded in the data collection sheet. The patient was instructed to use the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) to report pain intensity (if the anesthesia was effective, the operator applied pressure with an explorer on the vestibular mucosa, and if the patient responded according to the VAS, it indicated that the effect had not been achieved). Method: The data was processed through Excel, where graphs and tables were created, and statistical and analytical data was obtained using SPSS 25. Results: Regarding latency time, at 37°C, the minimum value was 0.4, the maximum value was 1.3, with a mean of 0.9086, a median of 1.000, and a standard deviation of 0.29837. At room temperature, the minimum value was 1.34, the maximum was 4, with a mean of 2.074, a median of 2.000, and a standard deviation of 0.62792. According to the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), most participants reported mild pain at room temperature (40.7%, N=24), while at 37°C, 30.5% (N=18) reported no pain. Conclusion: The latency time of 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine at 37°C is shorter than at room temperature using the upper infiltrative anesthesia technique, supporting the researcher's hypothesis.

The objective of this study was to determine the latency time of 2% lidocaine and 2% mepivacaine using the direct trunk technique in patients treated at the Norbert Wiener University Dental Clinic in 2018. This research was descriptive, observational, non-experimental, prospective, cross-sectional, and comparative. The non-probabilistic sample consisted of 13 patients for each group, lidocaine 2% and mepivacaine 2%, using the direct trunk technique according to Lorenz Arranz, applying an anesthesia cartridge with a long needle (27G), reaching 20-25mm in 15 seconds, applied by a dentist. The time control was performed with a stopwatch, waiting for the tingling or numbness of the lip, tongue, and tooth, according to the administered sector. The data collection instrument was validated by expert judgment. The data were processed using SPSS version 23, applying the Student's t-test. For comparing categorical variables, independent two-sample tests were used, working at a 5% significance level (α = 0.05). The results showed that 2% lidocaine had an average latency time of 3.36 minutes, while 2% mepivacaine had an average latency time of 3.63 minutes. This study concluded that there is no significant difference between the latency time of 2% lidocaine and 2% mepivacaine.

Objective: To evaluate the alveolar healing efficacy post-extraction of Croton lechleri compared to Perio·Aid® bioadhesive gel in Oryctolagus cuniculus. Materials and Methods: The sample consisted of 30 rabbits prepared for experimentation, divided into two groups (A and B): 15 rabbits were treated with Croton lechleri tincture applied to the sockets of their lower incisors, and another 15 rabbits received Perio·Aid® bioadhesive gel in the same sockets (Group B). The rabbits were sacrificed by decapitation under deep anesthesia in groups of 10 on days 3, 7, and 21 post-surgery. Five alveoli per treatment were sectioned sagittally and evaluated under a microscope. Results: At 3 days, Perio·Aid® bioadhesive gel exhibited significantly greater inflammatory infiltration. At 7 days, Croton lechleri tincture promoted greater inflammatory infiltration. At 21 days, Perio·Aid® bioadhesive gel significantly stimulated the presence of osteoclasts (p=0.035) and osteoblasts (p=0.004), which was similar to Croton lechleri regarding osteoblasts (p=0.004). Conclusion: Croton lechleri showed similar healing efficacy to Perio·Aid® bioadhesive gel at 3, 7, and 21 days post-extraction, and both products accelerated the healing process.
