Abstract(s)
A endodontia é o ramo da medicina dentária que visa o tratamento das patologias da polpa dentária
e tecidos adjacentes, permitindo a manutenção do dente no alvéolo sem presença de inflamação e/
ou infeção.
O sucesso do tratamento endodôntico está intimamente ligado à eficaz limpeza e desinfeção do
sistema de canais radiculares, que pode ser conseguido com recurso a instrumentos tradicionais e
mecanizados, contudo, estudos mostram que tanto a instrumentação rotatória quanto a mecânica não
eliminam eficazmente a smear layer e os detritos nocivos formados durante a limpeza.
Da análise efectuada até à literatura científica consultada, concluímos que o ultrassom é um recurso
indispensável para a prática endodôntica, pois a variedade de pontas ativas existentes no mercado
possibilitam a sua utilização nas várias fases do tratamento.
Nesta revisão abordaremos a sua utilização para criação de acesso ao sistema canalar, na ativação
de soluções irrigantes, para a remoção de instrumentos fraturados.
The endodontic treatment is the field of dentistry that aims the treatment of the dental pulp and adjacent tissue pathologies, allowing the tooth to remain in the alveolus without inflammation and/ or infection. The success of endodontic treatment is closely linked to the effective cleaning and disinfection of the root canal system, which can be achieved using traditional and mechanized instruments, however, studies show that both rotational and mechanical instrumentation do not effectively eliminate the smear layer and the harmful debris formed during cleaning. From the analysis made to the scientific literature consulted, we conclude that ultrasound is an indispensable resource for endodontic practice, since the variety of active tips available on the market makes it possible to use them in the various phases of treatment. In this review we will address its use to create access to the canalar system, in the activation of irrigating solutions and for the removal of fractured instruments.
