Introduction: The fabrication of coils using heavy gauge stainless steel wire for use in appliances such as the Churro Jumper can be a tedious task and can often result in spaced coils that lead to more flexibility than can be desired, leading to a decreased force application and hence overall lengthened treatment time. Using well placed, tightly adherent coils the force of which can be controlled by placement of the desired number of coils can help to mitigate this shortcoming. Technique: The spring winder described here is easy to fabricate using easily available stationary articles which can be repurposed to form an efficient winder that can coil springs with reduced effort as compared to that would have been required when using orthodontic pliers only. The stationary repurposed for this winder is the electric etching pen which provides a good framework for fabricating the winder. In addition, clear acrylic is used along with a syringe body to hold the winding components. The syringe is filled up with clear acrylic and winding rods are laid down within the acrylic which holds it firmly in place. In addition, the syringe body is embedded into the electric pen handle which allows for easy turning the winder so as to exert effective force while reducing operator effort and fatigue. This also allows for winding of heavy gauge orthodontic wire with little effort. Conclusion: A simplified spring winder can be best indicated for the fabrication of coils for fixed functional appliances like Churro Jumper.

Introduction: In diagnosing a disease in certain cases, the dentist also requires additional examinations such as radiographic examination. Many types of radiographs can help dentists in making diagnoses according to their indications, both intra-oral and extra-oral. The conventional X-ray photo technique requires a fixer solution as one of the stages in performing a process that serves to dissolve and inhibit the development of silver halide crystals in the emulsion process. Fixer solutions contain four components dissolved in water, namely the clearing agent, acidifier, preservative and hardener. The aim of the study was to determine the amount of silver contained in the fixer solution after fixing the occlusal film and periapical film using the electrolysis method. Method: was a laboratory experimental study, with a post-test study design. Results: showed that the occlusal film dissolved 6.0 grams while the periapical film dissolved 0.6 grams of silver in the fixer solution. Based on the results of the independent t test, p = 0,000 <0,05 was obtained. Conclusion: of the study was that there was a significant difference in the amount of silver from the fixer after fixing the occlusal film and periapical film using the electrolysis method.

Background: Chitosan is a natural biopolymer that has gained a special interest in bone regeneration in recent years. Objective: The objective of this study is to show the bone formation obtained following a transplantation of sponges of chitosan alone, chitosan combined with chondroitin sulfate or chitosan combined with chondroitin sulfate and collagen, in rat critical calvarial bone defects. Material and Methods: 12 Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups of 3 rats each. Critically sized bone defects were made in calvaria, and grafted by sponges of:collagen / chitosan / chondroitin (group 1), chitosan (group 2), chitosan / chondroitin sulfate (group3). Bone defects of group 4 remained empty for control. The animals were sacrificed 12 weeks after the surgery. Results: Histological analysis showed the formation of lamellar bone in the chitosan group. In the chitosan / chondroitin sulfate group, formation of a less mature bone than that of the chitosan group was also observed. However, the least bone formation was observed in the collagen / chitosan / chondroitin sulfate group. Histological sections showed the presence of fibrous tissue. The results for this group are similar to the control group. In groups 2 and 3, the materials appear completely resorbed while in group 1 the resorption of the matrix was incomplete. Conclusion: Despite the size of the sample, this study has shown that chitosan alone or in combination with chondroitin sulfate promotes bone formation. On the other hand, the combination chitosan / chondroitin sulfate / collagen showed a negative result.

Maxillofacial injuries sustained through Road traffic accidents (RTAs) is one of the leading causes of hospitalization in India. Numerous factors such as ever increasing amount of two wheelers, assault conditions, lack of safety measures such as helmets, seat belts and lack of strict implementation of such rules, prevailing socioeconomic, cultural and environmental factors results in a substantial number of facial fractures from RTAs. By 2020, RTA injuries will rise as the 6th major cause of death worldwide. One of the most commonly employed means to thwart such RTAs include the use of helmet, following speed limits, obeying stop signs and traffic signals. Among two wheelers, the use of Helmets plays a crucial role in protecting the cranial vault and potentially the facial skeleton if a full face helmet is used. 25% of the RTAs are caused due to two wheelers rather than four wheelers. Pillion rider, who ride passenger behind the rider on a two wheelers more suspectible to morbid injuries due to lack of safety measures like not wearing a helmet, improper sitting patterns especially by females in India. A study showed injuries such as contusion and skull fractures are common when riding pillion. Here we report a case of mandibular symphysis fracture along with bilateral subcondylar fracture with medial displacement of the fractured segment sustained via RTA while riding pillion.

Molars are frequently affected by caries among children and adolescents. An efficient endodontic intervention is crucial for their successful preservation in oral environment. Proper knowledge of the internal anatomy of a tooth is the stepping stones for successful treatment outcome in regular endodontic practice. Improper diagnosis with inaccurate treatment planning often result a failure in case of molars with extra roots leading to early tooth loss and development of inevitable functional, esthetic, and psychological problems. Though anatomical variation of tooth morphology is common, incidence of an extra lingual root distally in case of mandibular molars i.e. Radix entomolaris is relatively rare. In this article, two case reports of endodontic management of Radix entomolaris (RE) are presented.

Periodontal disease is the multifactorial disease that leads to the destruction of the tooth-supporting structures. A classification system provides a framework that helps in diagnosis and assembles similar disease phenotypes in a more homogeneous form. Several classifications have been proposed by many authors. Till date, the American Academy of Periodontology (AAP) 1999 Classification was the most extensively used classification, which was designed to overcome the drawbacks and deficiencies of the 1989 classification. However, presence of some drawbacks has limited its use in routine clinical practice. So, the current classification has been developed in 2017 by AAP and the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP) to overcome the disadvantages of the 1999 classification. The 2017 classification is extremely extensive and more intricate than 1999 classification, which is useful to the overall dentist and periodontists to select the best treatment options for the patients. This review summarizes the newer classification, key changes from 1999 Classification/modification and disadvantages of the newer classification.

Hemangiomas are benign vascular deformities characterized by an increased proliferation and turnover of endothelial cells. They account for the majority of parotid gland tumors in infants but are rare in adults. Changes in blood flow dynamics within hemangiomas can cause stasis, thrombus formation and phleboliths. Tonsilloliths are calcifications occurring primarily within the palatine tonsillar crypts. We report the case of a large hemangioma of the parotid gland with multiple phleboliths and tonsilloliths in an adult, highlighting the clini cal and imaging features on panoramic radiography, Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), cervical ultrasound, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Doppler imaging. A 20-year-old woman presented, complaining of a painless swelling below her right ear. Panoramic radiograph showed multiple randomly distributed round-to-oval radiopaque structures overlying the right mandibular ramus. CBCT revealed several radiopaque structures in the right palatine tonsillar crypts. Cervical ultrasound exposed a large heterogeneous and predominantly hypoechogenic mass in the right parotid gland. MRI displayed a well-defined lesion in the right parotid gland extending into the parapharyngeal pre-styloid space, hypointense on T1 and hyperintense on T2, containing several nodules. The diagnosis was: large hemangioma of the right parotid gland extending into the parapharyngeal pre-styloid space, with multiple phleboliths and tonsilloliths. Propranolol was delivered, with periodic follow-up on Doppler images, showing a hemangioma size reduction. Standard radiographs can detect tonsilloliths and phleboliths but additional imaging modalities disclose the exact diagnosis and location of calcifications and the diagnosis, structure and extent of the vascular lesion. Tonsilloliths and phleboliths should be considered in the differential diagnosis of radiopaque masses involving the mandibular ramus. Hemangioma with phleboliths should be considered in the differential diagnosis of parotid tumors when numerous intraglandular calcification nodules are detected on radiographs.

The ongoing episode and outbreak of serious intense respiratory condition called as Covid-19 has caused health concerns affecting the entire world owing to the community spread pattern of infection. The infection caused by the virus manifests in nasopharyngeal and salivary secretions of affected patients causing pneumonia or severe acute respiratory disorder. The dental professionals are at the highest risk for transmission due to the possibility of aerosols produced by salivary droplets as well as face to face communication. These aerosols can be either inhaled or can contact the skin and has a tendency to accumulate on the surfaces in the dental clinics. The aim of article is to provide an insight over etiology, pathogenesis, screening modalities, patient education, infection control, research and essential knowledge about COVID19 and management protocols amongst the health care professionals and clinical practioners

If the success rates in implantology display scores envied by many other medical and dental disciplines, the fact remains that the negative feeling is around 100% for the practitioner and for the patient in case of 'failure, especially when this failure occurs after prosthetic placement. The management of these situations rarely addresses the possible recovery of the prosthesis. This article proposes an original protocol making it possible to avoid having to redo the prosthesis following an implant loss and its replacement
