In this study, the process of osseointegration on titanium implant surfaces with different physicochemical treatments subjected to a simulated corporal fluid submersion was evaluated using the concept of fractal dimension. It was found that different treatments led to rather different calcium phosphate crystal growth patterns, with fractal dimension ranging from 1.68 to 1.93. The observed crystal patterns may be explained by a general deposition, diffusion, and aggregation growth mechanism, where diffusing particle sticking probability plays a fundamental role.

Quantitative description of early stages of osseointegration on titanium implants with different treatments should help develop a better understanding of this phenomenon, in general, and provide basis for further systematic experimental studies. Clinical practice should benefit from such studies in the long term, by more ready access to implants of higher quality.

Modern Approaches in Dentistry andOral Health CareResearch Article periodontal disease. Furthermore, according to the National Research in oral health, SB Brazil 2010, nearly 25% of the children by age 5 had one type of malocclusion, also the numbers keep increasing among older children. Thus, malocclusion represents a serious public health problem due to its high prevalence and negative impacts on the quality of life of those individuals who are affected with it [3].Orofacial Motricity (OM) is related to the functional and structural aspects of the orofacial and cervical regions, including the functions of the stomatognathic system, such as suction, swallowing, chewing, breathing and articulation [4]. Due to the anatomical complexity of these muscular structures and because they are

The objective of this experience report is to draw a comparison between the adjustments made in the Welcoming, in a Family Health Unit or FHU in the city of Recife, Pernambuco, from March 2020 to March 2023. The initial phase of this study comprised a descriptive and qualitative approach to the experiences, particularly directed to the welcoming of users. This one was from 37 professionals from the FHU of Vila União, in the city of Recife, State of Pernambuco. The professionals belonged to four Family Health teams. Considering the data obtained in the first half of 2021, the dynamics of welcoming were directed to screening, with little participation of the Oral Health team and problems related to dissatisfaction with the solution established for their problem. It was observed the need for adjustments in welcoming, with a view to a better level of satisfaction for both users and the care team. After an interval of two years or 24 months, it was found that there were few changes. The established organization remains with the Community Health Agent or CHA, triaging and referring users, with the Oral Health team being away from the reception and taking turns with another team. In this context, the current direction seems to reflect a recovery in the demand for care, not necessarily the quality of care. What has been found to be a problem is in a larger dimension, but is not discussed, at least until the month of March 2023.
