    Análisis de longitud de obturación del conducto radicular en tratamientos endodónticos realizados por estudiantes de pregrado de odontología
    (Universidad de Concepción, 2024-07-29) Mora, Joaquín
    Introduction: Cross-sectional observational study whose purpose was to analyze the length of root canal obturation, according to the Barrieshi-Nussair criteria, in endodontic treatments performed by undergraduate students at the School of Dentistry at Finis Terrae University, in the year 2022.Results: 88.5% obtained an acceptable obturation length, 6.7% were overfilled and 4.8% were underfilled. Regarding the academic year, in the 4th year, 77.8% of the endodontic treatments had an acceptable obturation length; in the 5th year, 89.4%; and in the 6th year, 90%. In the lower jaw, 89.3% were acceptable and in the upper jaw, 88.2% were acceptable. In the incisor group, 83.3% achieved an acceptable obturation length, 100% in the canines and 89.1% in the premolars. Conclusion: The results obtained in this study were superior to some described in the Middle East, lower or similar to those found in Europe, and comparable to others reported in Chile. In all variables, the percentage of acceptable obturation length according to the Barrieshi-Nusair criteria was predominant (77.8% for 4th, 89.4% for 5th, 90% for 6th, 89.3% for mandible, 88.2% for maxilla, 83.3% for incisors, 100% for canines and 89.1% for premolars). This high percentage of acceptable treatments may be due, among other factors, to the use of the electronic apical locator and the accompaniment of specialists during undergraduate training and endodontic treatment.

    Patient experience and non-surgical periodontal therapy in a postgraduate periodontal training program: A qualitative study
    (Sociedad de Periodoncia de Chile, Sociedad de Implantología Oral de Chile; Sociedad de Prótesis y Rehabilitación Oral de Chile; Sociedad Chilena de Odontopediatría y Sociedad de Ortodoncia de Chile, 2022-04) Prieto, Diego
    Objective: To explore patient experience for non-surgical periodontal therapy using phenomenography. Methods: This qualitative study was performed in a postgraduate specialist training program in periodontics. Patients reported their experiences through in-depth interviews in order to recognize the impact of non-surgical periodontal therapy on their quality of life and their satisfaction. A homogeneous sampling procedure was used, establishing redundancy after the fifteenth interview. Interviews were audio recorded, transcribed and analyzed by three researchers who codified the answers into categories to determine the emerging topics. Results: The core emerging themes were: (i) lack of information about periodontal disease; (ii) experience during treatment; (iii) treatment implications; and (iv) clinician–patient relationship. Conclusions: Patients seem to have limited knowledge about periodontal diseases. Reasons for attendance mainly include bleeding gums, tooth mobility, and aesthetic problems. Therapy can generate pain, fear, and is considered invasive, whereas dentine hypersensitivity may occur post-operatively. Despite this, patients would be willing to undergo treatment again and were generally satisfied with the level of care and treatment received.
