Resumo: | Purpose: This study aimed to record the prevalence of dentine lesions under non-cavitated or minimally demineralized enamel in molar teeth of adolescents from the Recife metropolitan area, PE, Brazil. Methods: Sample was composed of 215 first and second permanent molars selected according the inclusion criteria: non-cavitated enamel, and absence of cracks, enamel defects, or stains. The teeth were collected from recently deceased adolescents, between 12 and 18 years-old, from the Recife metropolitan area, PE, whose legal representatives signed a donation term and an informed consent form. The World Health Organization criteria were used to classify molar teeth as having sound enamel. In bitewing radiographs, dentine lesion under non-cavitated enamel (hidden caries) was diagnosed as a translucent radiographic image visible in dentine under sound occlusal enamel, without any restoration or sealant. Results: The prevalence of dentin lesions under non-cavitated enamel molars was 13%. Most cases comprised lower first permanent molars (58%). Conclusions: These results suggest that the prevalence of dentine lesions in molars was high in this sample. It is important to associate radiographic exams with clinical exam to identify and follow-up this type of lesion in early stages.

Metodologia: Foram analisados 215 elementos dentários (primeiros e segundos molares permanentes), apresentando esmalte não-cavitado, sem trincas, defeitos de esmalte ou manchas, de doadores de óbito recente, entre 12 e 18 anos, da região metropolitana de Recife, PE, cujos representantes legais assinaram o Termo de Doação e o Termo de Consentimento Livre e Esclarecido. Para classificação clínica dos molares como hígidos (em esmalte) consideraram-se os critérios da Organização Mundial da Saúde. Na radiografia interproximal, classificou-se como lesão dentinária sob esmalte não-cavitado ou cárie oculta, a imagem radiolúcida visível em dentina sob esmalte oclusal diagnosticado como hígido, sem restauração ou selante. Resultados: Verificou-se uma prevalência de lesões dentinárias sob esmalte não-cavitado de 13% para os molares investigados no estudo, principalmente nos primeiros molares inferiores (58%). Conclusão: O resultado obtido permitiu concluir que nesta amostra a prevalência de lesões dentinárias foi alta, sendo importante associar o exame radiográfico ao exame clínico para que este tipo de lesão possa ser identificada e acompanhada de forma precoce.
