Traumatic injury to anterior teeth is frequent in children and adolescents owing to an active lifestyle. Proclined maxillary incisors are more prone to fracture due to their location in the oral cavity. Complicated crown root fractures present endodontic, restorative and aesthetic challenge and requires a multidisciplinary treatment approach to achieve predictable success. This case report describes, multidisciplinary management of such complicated crown root fractures following traumatic injury.

During World War I, the large number of destructive facial wounds led to an increased demand for facial surgeons. At that time, the specialties of plastic surgery and oral and maxillofacial surgery did not exist and very few general surgeons were prepared to treat these patients. Instead of being surgically reconstructed, deformed faces were covered by masks. To address this demand, the American Society of Oral Surgeons and Exodontists was established in 1921. This name was used until 1946, when it was replaced by the American Society of Oral Surgeons. In 1975, the name was changed to the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (OMS).

Lipomas are common soft tissue tumors, but occur infrequently in the oral and maxillofacial region. Incidence of oral lipomas are noted to be only 1 - 4.4% with common sites being buccal mucosa followed by lips, tongue and vestibule. In this paper we would like to report a rare case of an extensive lipoma in the chin region.

The keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT) is regarded as the most aggressive and recurrent tumor of all. The lesion does not pose any clinical symptoms until significantly large in size. The different treatment modalities are always a matter of dilemma as to which one would yield good results with less recurrence. A Conservative treatment approach for moderately large lesions such as marsupialization and decompression was carried out in this case with regular follow-up sessions. The aim of this case report is to treat cases of KCOT with a conservative surgical approach.

Aim and objective The study was aimed to comparatively evaluate the effect of different methods of cleaning and preparation of occlusal surfaces on microleakage of pit and fissure sealant. Materials and method: Eighty (80) sound extracted premolars served as samples and were divided into four categories according to the method of cleaning and preparation of occlusal surfaces. Prior to sealant placement. The groups were: A Dry Brush, B Pumice Slurry Air Polishing and D Prophylaxis Paste. In each group, subsequent to cleaning of occlusal surfaces with the method assigned to, pit and fissure sealant was applied. The samples were then kept in an incubator, thermocycled and then immersed in methylene blue dye. Each tooth was sectioned longitudinally into two halves and observed under stereomicroscope for microleakage using a criteria given by Cooley et al. Statistical analysis: Discrete microleakage score of groups is summarized in number (n) and percentage (%).Result: Comparing the microleakage score of four groups, χ2 test showed significantly different microleakage score among the groups (χ2 =33.96, P <0.001). Conclusion: Microleakage score showed both pumice slurry (Group B) and especially air polishing (Group C) to be significantly more superior than prophylaxis paste (Group D) and dry brush (Group A).
目的比较评价不同牙合面清洁和预备方法对窝裂封闭剂微渗漏的影响。材料和方法:将80颗声音提取的前磨牙作为样本，根据咬合面清洁和准备的方法分为四类。在涂上密封胶之前。分别为:A干刷组、B浮石浆空气抛光组、D预防膏组。在每组中，按照指定的方法清洁咬合表面后，应用窝和裂隙密封剂。然后将样品保存在培养箱中，进行热循环，然后浸入亚甲基蓝染料中。每颗牙纵切成两半，在体视显微镜下观察微渗漏，标准由Cooley等人给出。统计分析:以数量(n)和百分比(%)汇总各组离散微漏评分。结果:四组患者微漏评分比较，χ2检验显示各组患者微漏评分差异有统计学意义(χ2 =33.96, P <0.001)。结论:微渗漏评分显示浮石浆(B组)，特别是空气抛光(C组)明显优于预防膏(D组)和干刷(A组)。

An 18 year old patient reported with the chief complaint of pain in the lower left back region since 2 months. On intraoral examination, retained primary left mandibular second molar was open and tender on percussion. Radiographic examination revealed absence of its successor. A diagnosis of apical periodontitis was made based on the clinical and radiographic examination. Pulpectomy was performed and the tooth was obturated with gutta percha. The cavity was restored with glass ionomer cement and later on restored with zirconia crown. Keywords – primary molar, pulpectomy, gutta percha, zirconia

Radiology has a wide range of application in the field of forensic dentistry and has set many benchmarks over decades. The purpose of this paper is to revisit the applications where radiographic methods may be used to determine the identity. Age and gender determination, craniofacial reconstruction, mass disasters, trauma and abuse and virtopsy has been reviewed in this paper with focus on two dimensional and three dimensional imaging modalities highlighting the recent advancements incorporated in these techniques. The radiologists’ play a pivotal role in cases of civil litigation and fraud. There are gaps to be bridged between forensic speciality and maxillofacial imaging. Henceforth, this article offers several suggestions for possible research projects to close some of these gaps.

Introduction: Examining the tooth is considered as foremost segment in research in the field of oral biology and oral pathology. For studying various structures like enamel, dentin and cementum, ground section of teeth is used, while decalcified sections of tooth are used for studying the soft tissues. Objective: The present study was aimed at exploring the normal structures of hard tissue parts of the teeth where partially decalcified ground sections were stained them with routine hematoxylin and eosin stain. Methodology: For the present study, a total of 30 extracted teeth were collected. The freshly prepared ground sections were partly decalcified by putting ground sections of teeth in 10% nitric acid for a time period of 20- 25 seconds. After this, the ground sections of teeth are washed in tap water. The partly decalcified ground sections of teeth were stained with routine hematoxylin and eosin staining procedure and were mounted on clean glass slides using DPX mounting media. The sections were then analyzed for various histological structures under the microscope. Results: When hematoxylin and eosin stained partially decalcified ground sections of teeth were viewed under light microscope, variety of histological structures appeared as stained, while some structures did not take stain and remain unstained. Conclusion: After preparing and staining the ground section of teeth by our method, we hope that it would be of great help for undergraduate students and to some extent the research scholars to understand the various structures of the teeth in a better and easy way.

Ameloblastoma is the most common benign odontogenic tumor of the jaws that constitutes about 1% of all cysts and tumors of the jaws1,2. It is generally a painless, slow growing, locally aggressive tumor causing expansion of the cortical bone, perforation of the lingual or the buccal cortical plate and infiltration to the soft tissues. It has peak incidence in third and fourth decade of life but can be found in any age group with equal gender predilection (1:1)1,5. The relative frequency of mandible to maxilla is reported to be varying from 80% -20% to 99–1%. In the mandible majority of Ameloblastoma are found in the molar ramus region1,3. In a conventional radiograph, Ameloblastoma can present as either unilocular or multilocular corticated radiolucency. The bony septae results in a honey comb, soap bubble or tennis racket appearance. In some places, cortical plates are spared and expanded where as in other region they are destroyed; root resorption is a common finding6. Buccal and lingual cortical plate expansion is more common in Ameloblastoma than in other tumour7. Conventional radiograph is sufficient for small mandibular lesions but maxillary lesions and extensive lesions require CBCT, CT and MRI to establish the extent of the lesion7. The challenge in managing Ameloblastoma is by attaining complete excision and reconstruction of the defect when the tumor is large. Ameloblastoma is treated by enucleation, curettage or surgical excision depending on size and type of the lesion and conservative therapy also. This report gives a comprehensive knowledge regarding the conservative therapy using a Iodoform and paraffin paste which has been a boon in treatment of odontogenic tumor.
