    Electromiografía en odontología
    (Universidad de Cuenca, 2015) Bravo Torres, Wilson Daniel; Torres Robles, Allysson Abigail
    The electromyography has been applied to dentistry since the 40’s as a diagnostic method of muscle disorders caused by cra- nial-cervical-faciaí disorders, temporo-mand¡bular disorders, and sleep disorders, among others. This tool provides us in-formation on the muscle electric potential (specially the masseter and temporal mus-cles) during jaw movements. The muscle hyperactivity predisposes the develop of temporomandibular disorders, pain and fatigue; causing discomfort ¡n patients, de creasing the ability of jaw movements and generating greater alteration in the stomatognathic system; for these reasons the dentist must make a correct clinical assess-ment of patients to determine if there are any symptoms for some muscular or neurological damage by electromyographic examination. This literatura review discusses the clinical and diagnostic uses of electromyography in dentistry, in especial by the rehabilitators who performed it for the neurophysiological evaluation of the chewing muscles both physiologically and pathologically.

    Son las resinas Bulk Fill la solución en odontología restauradora?
    (Universidad de Cuenca, 2015) Ordóñez Plaza, Miriam Patricia; Vanegas Avecillas, María Elizabeth; Tamariz Ordoñez, Pablo Esteban; Bravo Torres, Wilson Daniel
    The aim of the present study was to conduct a literature review of the composition, physical and mechanical properties of resin Bulk Fill and its true impact in dentistry. Literature from Medline database was used through your Pubmed search engine with the key words composite resin Bulk fill, physical properties, mechanical properties. The Bulk fill resins are compouns that allow monoincremental restoration of teeth in the posterior región in cavities up to 4mm deep, requiring only 10 seconds of polymerization, due to the incorporation of light sensitive filters and polymerization accelerators in its composition, which increases its effectiveness. Its physical and mechanical properties are similar to conventional resins and vary according to the manufacturar and fluidity of the resin.
