Peer Review Process

Manuscripts submitted to Memorias del Instituto de Investigaciones en Ciencias de la Salud undergo a double-blind peer review process, in which the identities of both authors and reviewers remain anonymous throughout the evaluation. Each manuscript is assessed by a minimum of two external reviewers with expertise in the relevant subject area, who are given a period of 30 days to submit their evaluation. Reviewers assess the originality, methodological rigor, scientific relevance, and clarity of presentation of each work. Based on the reviewers' reports, the Editorial Committee decides whether to accept, request revisions, or reject the manuscript, and communicates the decision to the authors as promptly as possible. This process ensures impartiality, transparency, and the scientific quality of published articles.

Abstract


El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar cualitativamente las regularidades de los conductos radiculares preparados con diferentes técnicas: técnica escalonada de retroceso programado, técnica Oregón modificada por la F.O.B. y técnica rotatoria Protaper. Fueron utilizados 30 conductos radiculares ex vivo de dientes unirradiculares de un único conducto. Los conductos fueron instrumentados de la siguiente manera: G1 (n=10) con la técnica escalonada de retroceso programado, G2 (n=10) con Oregon modificada por la F.O.B y G3 (n=10) con técnica rotatoria Protaper. Una vez acabada la instrumentación el material de impresión fue inyectado en el conducto radicular; después del fraguado del material de impresión los dientes fueron descalcificados para obtener los moldes de los conductos que fueron fotografiados con aumento 20x con microscopio digital Dino Lite plus para analizar la uniformidad de la instrumentación por tercios por las tres diferentes técnicas, clasificándolas en: CBI (conducto bien instrumentado), CRI (conducto regularmente instrumentado), CPI (conducto pobremente instrumentado). Los resultados mostraron predominancia de CBI para la técnica Protaper en los tercios medio y apical; en el tercio cervical para las tres técnicas y el tercio apical para la técnica Oregon modificada, siendo los peores resultados para la técnica escalonada de retroceso programado y Oregon modificada en el tercio medio, tercio apical en la Escalonada de Retroceso Programado. No hubo diferencias estadísticamente significativas en la efectividad de las técnicas escalonada de retroceso programado, Oregon modificada y Protaper cuando fueron analizados cualitativamente los moldes de los tercios. Concluimos que las técnicas coronoapicales resultaron en una instrumentación más uniforme y de mejor calidad que la técnica escalonada.
