FOP currently has seven Graduate Programs. At the last evaluation by CAPES, corresponding to the four-year period of 2014 - 2017, four programs of our School received grades of Excellence for Graduate programs, two were 6 and two 7. This performance leaves FOP in a very comfortable position, considering Graduate Courses. From all Brazilian Graduate Courses with excellence grades (CAPES 6 …

A direct relationship between radiographic image quality and greater value of line pairs in the receptors has been reported by manufacturers of digital radiographs. The aim of this study is to compare two digital intraoral radiographic systems for the diagnosis of root fractures in order to assess the correlation between the number of line pairs per milimeters and the image quality for di…

Although dental computed tomography exams offer a relatively low radiation dose to the patient, substantial evidences regarding stochastic effects of ionizing radiation indicate that even small doses may induce effects such as carcinogenesis. Therefore, exposure parameters should be adjusted keeping radiation dose as low as diagnostically acceptable. The aim of this study is to determine …
The use of advanced methods such as cone beam computed tomography may help decision making in the diagnosis of the bucomaxillofacial region. However, the literature shows reduced accuracy of this imaging modality in the presence of high-density materials, due to the interference of artifacts. The application of algorithms called metal artefact reduction (MAR) has been suggested to minimiz…
Impacted third molars can lead to several symptoms and pathologic conditions; and among them is the root resorption of adjacent second molars. It is well believed that the resorption occurs as consequence of the pressure caused by the impacted third molar. However, there is a lack of scientific evidence to support this theory. Finite element analyses are important tools in dental research…
Although cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) exams offer a relatively low radiation dose to the patient, substantial evidence regarding ionizing radiation's stochastic effects indicates that even small doses may induce effects such as carcinogenesis. Therefore, exposure parameters should be adjusted, keeping the radiation dose as low as diagnostically acceptable. Increasingly, CBCT syste…
Image quality of Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) reconstructions is seriously compromised when metals are present in the scanned volume generating some artefacts. Shadows and streaks mask both the metal objects and the anatomical structures in the vicinity, thus prejudicing or even invalidating diagnosis. One of the possible solutions to reduce the artefacts and thus significantly en…
