Avulsion of maxillary incisors following dentofacial trauma is common. Management of cases with multiple avulsed maxillary incisors is challenging and requires a multidisciplinary treatment approach. Various issues related to optimum esthetics, static and functional occlusion, restoration, and individualization of orthodontic appliances in the management of such cases are important for optimum results. The present article highlights the multidisciplinary management of a patient with three maxillary incisors avulsion following trauma.

Ameloblastoma is the term first suggested by Churchill in 1934. This is an odontogenic tumour where epithelium is the neoplastic component with no involvement of ectomesenchyme. As a well known fact that ameloblastoma is a benign tumour which invades locally with most common site being the third molar region mandibular jaw. Most commonly ameloblastoma occurs in mandibular third molar region upto 66%, followed by 11% in mandibular premolar region, 10% in mandibular anterior region, 6% in maxillary anterior and posterior region and only 1% in maxillary premolar region. Here in this case report we present a rare case of unicystic ameloblastoma occuring in anterior mandibular region crossing the midline along with radiographic investigations done in two dimensional and three dimensional imaging.

Strategic dentin preservation is the prime objective of this case report (i.e. leaving a truss of dentin between the 2 cavities thus prepared). Permanent teeth with an indication for endodontic treatment can be treated via the truss access cavity design rather than traditional access cavity protocol using copious irrigation. The teeth were then given post-endodontic restorations. Endodontically treated teeth did not show any post-operative symptoms or any presence of post-operative periapical radiolucency or flare-up. The main objective of Orifice oriented access/truss access approach mainly stresses on the preservation of the healthy tooth structure with the minimally invasive approach. This minimal invasive approach in truss access designs avoids the need for conventionally placed crowns. Thus, the aim of this case report was to strategically plan truss access cavity designs on premolars.

Background: The incidence of malocclusion varies among countries, ethnicities, races, and ages. The recognition of malocclusion incidence is an important role in planning public health services. Aims: To assess the occlusal features of Malaysian Malay adults aged 18-23 years. However, few epidemiological studies have been conducted in Malaysia and a little information is available on Malay malocclusion. Methods: A total sample of 191 subjects (73 males and 118 females) was examined to register the occlusal status by using Angle classification as normal occlusion, Class I, Class II/1, Class II/2 and Class III malocclusion. Other variables were recorded such as overbite, over-jet, crowding, spacing, midline diastema, crossbite, scissors bite, midline shifts, canine displacement, missing teeth, supernumerary teeth, traumatically fractured teeth, traumatic gingival contact, tongue thrust and lip coverage. Statistical analysis: Descriptive statistics were used for all measurements and the chi-square test was used for gender differences. Results: Class III was the most predominant with gender significant (P < 0.05). Class II/2 was the lowest incidence (1%). Overall, the anterior crowding was high (75.9%). There was a significant association between crossbite, scissors bite and genders (P < 0.05). The anterior crossbite was more commonly associated with Class III and the antero-posterior unilateral crossbite was found only in subjects with Class III. Conclusion: The incidence of Class III was higher in Malay; therefore, the orthodontic management of Class III would be more common in the clinic so that it is necessary to start a plan to promote the preventive and interceptive orthodontic treatment in Malay population.

Background: Despite improvements and advances in materials and methods, root canal treatment is not always satisfactory. After completing the obturation procedures, retreatment might be mandatory in cases of reinfection or inappropriately cleaned root canal. Retreatment strategy involves elimination of the obturating material, and then the whole mechanical and filling procedures are repeated again. Thus, root canal sealers removal shouldn’t represent an obstacle. Objective: The current study aimed is to investigate and observe the cleanliness of root canal walls that were previously obturated with two types of calcium silicate bioceramic sealers compared to a resin sealer. Materials and Methods: 21 single-rooted premolars were utilized. After complete removal of the obturating materials using Protaper retreatment universal system, the roots were cut by the use of a hammer and a chisel, then the middle third of the retreated canals were observed under a scanning electron microscope at magnification 1000x, the amount of clear, opened dentinal tubules was compared. Results: Among the three investigated sealers, ADSEAL showed the largest number of clear dentinal tubules while, a fewer open dentinal tubule were observed with Well Root and Ceraseal. Conclusions: None of the investigated sealers could be totally removed from root canal walls. However, the quantity of remnants of root filling material with well root and ceraseal were significantly more, compared to ADSEAL.

Aim: To find sites in human temporal bone for placing longer implant Materials & Methods: Dry human skull were procured from the anatomy department. External acoustic meatus(EAM) was taken as reference point from that point five arcs of radius15mm, 20mm,25mm,30mm,35 mm were drawn over the temporal bone. The temporal bone removed from the skull and the bone is removed from the outer most point towards the EAM. The thickness of the bone at 1oClock and 4o Clock position and 8oClock and 11o Clock position over the left and right side of the temporal measured using digital Vernier calliper. The temporal bone is thicker at the 3oClock on the left and 9oClock on the right side. The thickness at the new position also measured. Result: The mean bone thickness at 15mm, 20mm, 25mm ranges from 3.92 to 12.08mm. The mean bone Thickness at the 3oclock and 9 o clock position at the distance of 20mm from EAM ranges from 8.21 to 8.50mm.The Statistical significance within the group were analysed using paired t test and found to be statistical significant at P value less than. 05. Conclusion: The external surface of temporal bone at the 3oClock on the left and 9oClock on the right side denser and thicker. The bone availability is also more favours for placing longer implant.

Stamp technique is new and novel method for restoring mainly class I and sometimes class II with accurate occlusal topography with near perfection. Since proprioceptors of stomatognatic system react sensibly under pressure as such occlusal discrepancy after direct restorations, even if it is minor, leads to discomfort to the patients. Eventually patients compensate by adapting to new habitual occlusal position, which causes serious long term craniomandibular disturbances. The restoration of Class I cavities and erosively damaged teeth was the main consideration for Stamp technique but can be utilized for class II cavity restorations where marginal ridge is intact. This technique is possible in teeth where preoperative anatomy of the tooth is intact and not destructed by carious lesion. The stamp technique is perfomed in order to get a precise tooth‑like restoration with an accurate functional occlusion. This case report presents a case of stamp technique for simple class I composite restoration. The intent was to replicate occlusal anatomy by making a copy of the original unprepared tooth structure to get absolute anatomy in few minutes.

Introduction: Sodium Hypochlorite (NaOCl) remains gold standard as a result of its antimicrobial effect and tissue dissolution properties, but it has no effect on inorganic portion of smear layer. Thus the combination of NaOCl and EDTA has been proven to have the perfect ability in removal of both organic and inorganic debris. These irrigants when used with conventional syringe irrigation were unable to penetrate the apical portion of the root canal, so new activation devices have come in the market which claims to be effective in delivering the irrigant to the working length. Objective/Aim: This study evaluated and compared the efficacy of recently introduced irrigation activation devices EndoActivator, Passive ultrasonic irrigation and Laser on removal of smear layer from the apical third of instrumented root canal using Scanning electron microscope. Methods: Forty three single rooted teeth were prepared with the help of protaper files and divided into four groups. Group I: EDTA only, Group II: Endoactivator, Group III: Laser, Group IV: Passive Ultrasonic Irrigation (PUI). Three specimens were not treated with any smear layer removal protocol and were immediately sectioned and sent for SEM examination. The remaining 40 samples from 4 groups after treatment with different activation system were also sectioned and sent for SEM examination. The data obtained were statistically analysed using Friedman’s test. Results: All the four groups removed smear layer and the laser showed best smear layer removing capability compared to other groups but was significant only with respect to control and group I (EDTA group without any activation) (p<0.05). Conclusions: Within the limitations of the study, all the activation systems were able to remove the smear layer from the apical third of the root canal with laser showing the best result followed by Endoactivator and then PUI.
