In recent decade, metallic nanoparticles have been widely interested due to their interesting optical characteristics [1-98]. Resonances of surface Plasmon in these nanoparticles lead to increase in synchrotron radiation emission as a function of the beam energy scattering and absorption in related frequency [99-201]. Synchrotron radiation emission as a function of the beam energy absorption and induced produced heat in nanoparticles has been considered as a side effect in plasmonic applications for a long time [202-316]. Recently, scientists find that thermoplasmonic characteristic can be used for various optothermal applications in cancer, nanoflows and photonic [317-386]. In optothermal human cancer cells, tissues and tumors treatment, the descendent laser light stimulate resonance of surface Plasmon of metallic nanoparticles and as a result of this process, the absorbed energy of descendent light converse to heat in nanoparticles [387-399]. The produced heat devastates tumor tissue adjacent to nanoparticles without any hurt to sound tissues [400-417]. Regarding the simplicity of ligands connection to Flerovium nanoparticles for targeting cancer cells, these nanoparticles are more appropriate to use in optothermal human cancer cells, tissues and tumors treatment [418-442]. In the current paper, thermoplasmonic characteristics of spherical, core-shell and rod Flerovium nanoparticles are investigated. Abstract

In the current study, thermoplasmonic characteristics of Curium nanoparticles with spherical, core-shell and rod shapes are investigated. In order to investigate these characteristics, interaction of synchrotron radiation emission as a function of the beam energy and Curium nanoparticles were simulated using 3D finite element method. Firstly, absorption and extinction cross sections were calculated. Then, increases in temperature due to synchrotron radiation emission as a function of the beam energy absorption were calculated in Curium nanoparticles by solving heat equation. The obtained results show that Curium nanorods are more appropriate option for using in optothermal human cancer cells, tissues and tumors treatment method.

This case report presents a 23 year old male patient who reported with pain in his anterior mandible since a week. History revealed an incidence of trauma on his chin when he was young for which he did not undergo any treatment. On examination buccal cortical expansion was clinically evident and tenderness was elicited on percussing over the lower anterior teeth. Aspiration was negative initially while, it showed serous blood the second time. Radiograph featured a unilocular radiolucency extending from left mandibular first premolar to right mandibular first molar with evidence of inter-radicular scalloping. With all these clinical and radiographic features we could arrive at a provisional diagnosis of traumatic bone cyst. A complete surgical excision followed by curettage of the cystic cavity was performed. The excised specimen was sent for histopathological evaluation. Histology showed presence of dense connective tissue, chronic inflammatory cell infiltrate and a normal bone with no epithelial lining. *Correspondence to: Balamurugan R, MDS, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon, RYA COSMO Foundation Hospital, India, E-mail: bala100192@gmail.com

Lingual mucosal horns are diagnostically challenging variants of a non-viral lingual papilloma that can clinically mimic the cutaneous horn. Improved characterization of these rare variants is needed, as improper diagnosis may lead to inappropriate or delayed treatment. A case series of patients with lingual horns diagnosed and treated at two academic hospitals from 2008 to 2019, was performed along with a literature review. We have diagnosed and inventoried seven lingual mucosal horns. The clinical description reveals a unique white overgrowth located on the dorsal surface of the tongue, delevoping at expense of the filiform papillae, without any preferential site but always located forward of the V-shaped line. The lesions are firm but remain nevertheless flexible, movable, a few millimeters high, with a conical shape. The lingual mucosal horn is a conical overgrowth whose occurrence is extremely rare. The lingual mucosal horn is a non-viral papilloma, and differs from the cutaneous variant. *Correspondence to: Frédérick Gaultier, DDS, PhD, Henri Mondor Hospital, Oral Medecine and Oral Surgery Department, ParisDescartes University, Ilede France, France and Laboratory of Molecular Oral Pathophysiology, INSERM 1138, Paris, France, E-mail: frederick.gaultier@parisdescartes.fr

This article describes a new technique to transfer the 3D bracket positioning by an effective indirect bonding procedure. Advantages and disadvantages of the CAD/ CAM technology for the indirect bonding technique are discussed to help clinician use the indirect digital system routinely. *Correspondence to: Ciuffolo Fabio, viale Matrino 124, 65013, Città Sant’Angelo, Pescara, Italy, Tel/Fax +39(0)854454385; +393391431761; E-mail: fabio@studiociuffoloferritto.it Received: October 12, 2019; Accepted: October 30, 2019; Published: November 05, 2019 Introduction Recently, a modified indirect bonding technique for a standardized and effective indirect bonding procedure has been described [1] to help orthodontists in bracket positioning accuracy and to exploit full potential of pre-adjusted appliance [2], saving time at chair and giving comfort to the patients [3]. This technique consisted in making bracket-positioning guide on the cast manually by using McLaughlin method [2], with the aim to align, leveling teeth and marginal ridges [1]. It also allowed to control the procedural variables (e.g. tray stability, flushes, curing time, etc.), standardizing indirect bonding technique for the routine and effective use of indirect bonding procedure. Despite the described advantages of this technique, the accuracy in bracket positioning was influenced by manual skills of clinicians in tracing the bracket-positioning guide on the cast, and by the ability of the trained technician in positioning the brackets on the cast precisely. The advent of digital orthodontics, in particular digital impression, simplified the process to have a digital model by dedicated CAD software, allowing analysis, measurements, virtual setup, and digital bracket positioning. Since the first paper on prototyped transfer tray published in 2006 [4], several digital systems allowed to transfer virtual bracket position by using a prototyped gig/tray, in which the real brackets were inserted, then transferred on the teeth by using lightcuring bonding with some limitation in the clinical stage (eg. Flushes, light curing process). On the contrary, as reported in 2012 [1], the use of customized bracket base, by pre-dosed light-cured adhesive, showed two main clinical advantages: (1) The customised bracket base respected the surface anatomy reducing the errors related to adhesive excess and flushes; (2) Self-curing indirect bonding used in the clinical stage took just 4 minutes and needed no attention from the operator, whereas the indirect light-curing and bonding took 30 seconds for each bracket from first molar to last molar, requiring also active attention all the time. As reported in the previous paper [1], one advantage of that technique was the possibility to be integrated with CAD/CAM procedure; since, to our knowledge, there are no papers showing CADCAM system able to transfer the virtual bracket position with a predosed customized bracket base.

Objective: Problems faced by pediatric and adult cancer patients differ, as the former include late-stage complications and development/educational issues derived from a longer course of disease after treatment. Oral care, aiming to enhance patients’ QOL, is likely to be effective to address problems specific to pediatric cancer patients. This study examined the effects of specialized oral care to improve such patients’ oral environments and QOL. Methods: Pediatric cancer in patients receiving chemotherapy and radiotherapy in our University Hospital Medical Center for Children, for whom specialized oral care had been requested, were studied. The contents of the specialized oral care for them included: brushing guidance, dental tartar removal, and oral moistening, gargling guidance, and/or dental treatment in accordance with the type of oncological treatment. Before and after care, oral environments were assessed using an original sheet, while measuring oral moisture and bacterial levels, and conducting a questionnaire survey on patient satisfaction. The assessment sheet consisted of Revised Oral Assessment Guide (ROAG) items, in addition to those regarding halitosis, the mouth-opening degree, dental condition, changes in the gustatory sense, and oral mucositis. For the questionnaire survey, the Child Perceptions Questionnaire (CPQ) 8-10 sheet was used to comprehensively evaluate the pediatric patients’ oral health-related QOL. Results: The mean oral assessment score decreased after care, while there were no changes in the oral moisture or bacterial level. Regarding the questionnaire, the mean overall score decreased after care. Decreases were also observed in the score for each question with increases in the number of intervention sessions. Conclusion: The maintenance and improvement of oral hygiene through specialized oral care are important to appropriately treat late-stage complications and provide health management education for pediatric cancer patients. In this study, specialized oral care was effective to improve such patients’ QOL. *Correspondence to: Toshiro Yamamoto, Department of Dental Medicine, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Graduate School of Medical Science, 465, Kajii-cho, Kawaramachi-Hirokoji, Kamigyo-ku, Kyoto, 602-8566, Japan, Tel: 81752515641; Fax: 81752515641; E-mail: yamamoto@koto.kpu-m.ac.jp

Oral health in facilities for disabled people is a real issue. Even if recommendations are proposed by national health agencies, it is still a fairly neglected area. A facility in Montpellier, South of France, has been working for several years to improve patients’ oral health and a caregiver is specially involved in this aspect. This article is about evaluating the activity of this facility on oral health and identifying the opportunity to use teledentistry. We realized a retrospective analyse of patient medical files for a period of 58 months. We identify that, among the 415 appointments to the dentist, only 3% have been performed under general anaesthesia. Teledentistry could decrease this number by 25%. Rather than saving money and time to the facility, teledentistry could also save energy and time from the patients and it is priceless. Teledentistry should be implemented to be officially evaluated in this type of facility, but it seems to be a good public health tool, on the theoretical aspect. *Correspondence to: Giraudeau Nicolas, Public health and telemedicine department, dental department, University hospital of Montpellier, 547, Avenue du Pr Jean-Louis Vialla 34080 Montpellier, France Montpellier, France, E-mail: nicolas.giraudeau@umontpellier.fr

Rather than saving money and time to the facility, teledentistry could also save energy and time from the patients and it is priceless. Teledentistry should be implemented to be officially evaluated in this type of facility, but it seems to be a good public health tool, on the theoretical aspect. *Correspondence to: Giraudeau Nicolas, Public health and telemedicine department, dental department, University hospital of Montpellier, 547, Avenue du Pr Jean-Louis Vialla 34080 Montpellier, France Montpellier, France, E-mail: nicolas.giraudeau@umontpellier.fr","PeriodicalId":10996,"journal":{"name":"Dental, Oral and Maxillofacial Research","volume":"136 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89491079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
