Pulp calcification is an example of this potential objection, as it represents partial or total obliteration of the entire pulp cavity by mineralized tissue and physiological aspects involved in the patient's dental history. In this context, a more specific and targeted approach is needed to analyze the number of cases of this pathology in a population and the profile of the patient and tooth, in order to learn more about the subject and improve endodontic planning and treatment in these cases. Therefore, the present study aims to evaluate the prevalence of calcified canals in teeth that have undergone endodontic treatment in a specific Brazilian population, correlating them with the patient and tooth profiles. To carry out this work, cases of endodontic treatment will be analyzed through digital dental records, over ten years of service (2014 to 2024) at a private clinic specialized in Endodontics, EndoMais, located in the city of Uberlândia, in the state of Minas Gerais.

Proper management requires comprehensive knowledge of injury patterns, etiological mechanisms, and therapeutic principles. This study aimed to perform an epidemiological analysis of maxillofacial fracture cases treated by the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Traumatology Service (CTBMF) at the Dental Hospital of the Federal University of Uberlândia (HO-UFU) between 2010 and 2022. A cross-sectional, retrospective, quantitative study was conducted through the review of medical records. The sample consisted exclusively of records of patients with facial trauma treated by the CTBMF team at HO-UFU from 2010 to 2022, resulting in a final sample size (N) of 395 records. The mean age of patients with facial fractures was 34,76 years, with a predominance of adults (41%) and individuals of mixed race (“pardo”) (22%). Traffic accidents were the main etiological factor (51%), followed by interpersonal violence (20%) and falls (11%). Some patients presented multiple fractures, totaling 594 fracture records, with greater involvement of the zygomatic complex (18%) and mandibular condyle (17%). Pain and edema were the most frequent clinical manifestations. Diagnostic evaluation involved multiple imaging exams, with panoramic radiography being the most commonly used. Regarding therapeutic approaches, surgical management predominated (55%). Additionally, several patients developed more than one post-traumatic complication, totaling 273 complication records, with persistent pain (24%) and paresthesia (20%) being the most prevalent, despite a high rate of missing information in some medical records. The findings reflect the epidemiological and clinical care profile of maxillofacial fractures treated at HO UFU, highlighting the institution’s role as a regional reference center and emphasizing the importance of systematic and well-documented clinical records to improve therapeutic decision-making and support future research.

Therefore, due to its high prevalence, it becomes a public health problem. Men, due to their greater exposure to risks and greater tendency to engage in reckless behavior, tend to be the main victims of this type of injury. This study aimed to identify the prevalence of facial trauma treated at the Dental Hospital of the Federal University of Uberlândia from 2010 to 2022, analyzing the differences in maxillofacial fracture patterns according to gender, comparing their etiologies, ethnicity, age group, marital status, area of residence, signs and symptoms, fracture location, imaging types, treatment choices, and complications. A retrospective quantitative analysis was conducted through indirect documentary research using patient records from the study period. The research was approved by the CEP, with number CAAE 74865223.6.0000.5152. A total of 17,466 medical records were examined, of which 332 met the inclusion criteria, where the majority were male (78.92%) and the minority were female (21.08%). The prevalence of adults was observed, with a mean age of 43 years for women and 41 years for men, residents of an urban area with the highest concentration in the city of Uberlândia (60% of women and 59.92% of men), single and self-declared brown. Regarding the etiology of trauma, traffic accidents were the most reported for both females (47.14%) and males (52.42%), as well as the jaw was the most affected site for men (49.12%) and women (46.15%). Most radiographic images were panoramic, for both women (26.62%) and men (32.23%). The most commonly reported complication was paresthesia, present in 19.23% of women and 12.6% of men. Furthermore, the average patient follow-up was approximately 4 months. The study enabled understanding the main patterns related to maxillofacial fractures, highlighting gender differences in their causes, management, sociodemographic, and clinical characteristics, which may guide the development of targeted preventive measures and the systematization of care.
