Background: Lesions of the gingiva account for a significant portion of the diagnostic workload of any oral pathology practice. Biopsy is important in establishing a definitive diagnosis. The aim of this study was to determine the relative frequency and distribution of biopsied gingival lesions in a Nigerian population. Methods: This was a retrospective study of all gingival biopsies performed over a 10-year period. Data on age, gender, site (maxillary or mandibular) and histopathological diagnosis were recorded. The lesions were categorized into two groups: non-neoplastic and neoplastic, with the neoplastic lesions further divided into benign and malignant lesions. Data analysis was done using SPSS version 23. Results: There were a total of 501 orofacial biopsies during the period under review, with gingival biopsies accounting for 73 (14.6%) cases. The mean age of subjects was 29.6 ± 20.1 years. There were 48 (65.8%) females and 25 (34.2%) males. Non-neoplastic lesions were 50 (68.5%), while neoplastic lesions were 23 (31.5%). The non-neoplastic lesions had an average age of 25.9 ± 17.7 years, and were encountered most frequently in the 10-19 years age group. Eighteen (36.0%) cases occurred in males, while 32 (64.0%) cases were seen in females. The maxillary gingiva (56.0%) was affected more often than the mandibular gingiva (44.0%). Pyogenic granuloma was the most frequent non-neoplastic lesion, accounting for 35 (70%) cases, followed by peripheral ossifying fibroma (n=6; 12%). The neoplastic lesions had a mean age of 37.1 ± 22.9 years, and consisted of 20 (87%) benign and 3 (13%) malignant lesions. The mean age for benign lesions was 35.3 ± 21.6 years, with a peak occurrence between 20 – 49 years. Females were almost twice more frequently affected than males. The mandibular gingiva accounted for 55% of the benign lesions. The most common benign lesion was fibroma (n=8; 40%) followed by ameloblastoma (n=3; 15%). Malignant lesions accounted for 4.1 % of the biopsied gingival lesions, with a mean age 48.7 ± 33.2 years. There was one case each of Kaposi’s sarcoma, polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma and mucosa-associated lymphoma. Conclusion: There is need for histologic examination of all excised gingival swellings.
背景:牙龈病变占任何口腔病理实践的诊断工作量的显著部分。活检对于明确诊断很重要。本研究的目的是确定尼日利亚人口中活检牙龈病变的相对频率和分布。方法:这是一项对10年来所有牙龈活检进行的回顾性研究。记录年龄、性别、部位(上颌或下颌骨)和组织病理学诊断。病变分为非肿瘤性和肿瘤性两组，肿瘤性病变进一步分为良性和恶性病变。数据分析使用SPSS version 23。结果:本研究期间口腔颌面部活检501例，其中牙龈活检73例(14.6%)。受试者平均年龄29.6±20.1岁。其中女性48例(65.8%)，男性25例(34.2%)。非肿瘤性病变50例(68.5%)，肿瘤性病变23例(31.5%)。非肿瘤性病变的平均年龄为25.9±17.7岁，以10-19岁年龄组最为常见。男性18例(36.0%)，女性32例(64.0%)。上颌龈(56.0%)比下颌龈(44.0%)更常见。化脓性肉芽肿是最常见的非肿瘤性病变，占35例(70%)，其次是周围骨化纤维瘤(n=6;12%)。肿瘤病变平均年龄为37.1±22.9岁，其中良性病变20例(87%)，恶性病变3例(13%)。良性病变的平均年龄为35.3±21.6岁，以20 ~ 49岁为高峰。女性受影响的频率几乎是男性的两倍。下颌牙龈占良性病变的55%。最常见的良性病变是纤维瘤(n=8;40%)，其次为成釉细胞瘤(n=3;15%)。恶性病变占活检牙龈病变的4.1%，平均年龄48.7±33.2岁。卡波西氏肉瘤、多形性低分级腺癌及粘膜相关淋巴瘤各1例。结论:所有切除的牙龈肿胀都需要进行组织学检查。

Introduction: The objective of this work is to make a bibliometric analysis of publications in odontology of African universities between January 2008 and December 2018 based on publications published in indexed journals on Pubmed. Material and Methods: Our work is a comprehensive retrospective descriptive study intended to carry out a bibliometric analysis of articles in odontology published between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2018 by professor researchers from African universities. For each selected article, we determined the authors, the title, their affiliations, the year of publication. Results: Based on our sample of 19 African countries (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Nigeria, Cameroon, Côte d 'Ivoire, Ethiopia, Ghana, Guinea, Kenya, Libya, Madagascar, Mali, South Africa, DRC Congo, Senegal, Sudan, Zimbabwe) that included 66 faculties; the results of our study showed: In terms of the number of global publications, Egypt, Nigeria, Morocco and South Africa are the leading countries. With them 4, they account for nearly 80% of the published articles. Côte d 'Ivoire, Cameroon, Guinea and Mali do not participate. The number of African authors who have published is 489, which represents 38.99 per cent of all teaching researchers. South Africa Pr. Feller L ranks 1st with 61 published articles. Cross-sectional descriptive studies lead with an overall percentage of 37.84%. In vitro experimental studies account for 27.75%. Literature and systematic journals 10.50%.

Dentigerous cyst is benign odontogenic cystic lesion that envelops the crown of an impacted tooth. Like odontogenic tumors, dentigerous cysts may grow to large sizes before they are diagnosed, and the large radiolucent cystic lesions associated with an impacted tooth are often diagnosed as odontogenic tumors like unicystic ameloblastoma or others developmental cystic lesions like odontogenic keratocyst, but less likely to be dentigerous cysts. In this case report we highlight the first case of huge bi-locular dentigerous cyst in a 35-year-old woman related with impacted mandibular canine.

Introduction: The purpose of the present investigation is to determine the oral effects of regular khat consumption in Djibouti by placing risk factors and symptoms related to consumption as a contribution to the ongoing scientific discourse. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional epidemiological survey was carried out on 129 patients consulting in a health center affiliated to the CNSS, located in the capital of the Republic of Djibouti, Djibouti-City from August to October 2017. The support of the survey is a questionnaire including an interview and a clinical examination. The subjects are divided into regular khat consumers (CK) and non-khat consumers (NCK). Results: Our sample is divided into 48.1% CK and 51.9% NCK. 80.7% of CK and 38.8% of NCK are male. 58.1% of CK and 88.1% of NCKs report a frequency greater than or equal to 2 brushings / day. 62.9% of CK and 4.5% of NCK are tobacco users (CT). 77.4% of CK and 20.9% of NCK are consumers of sweetened beverages. 62.9% of CK and 16.4% of NCKs report symptoms of dry mouth. 38.7% of CK and 16.4% of NCK suffer from TMJ pain. 32.3% of CK and 14.9% of NCK complain of changes in taste perception. 29% of CK and 4.5% of NCK have burning sensations in the tongue or other parts of the oral cavity. 24.2% of CK and 7.5% of NCK report loss of prosthetic restorations and / or strides. The plate indices of CK and NCK are 1.6 (+/- 0.13) and 1.4 (+/- 0.13), respectively. The gingival indices of CK and NCK are respectively 1.64 (+/- 0.13) and 1.57 (+/- 0.09). 24.2% of CK and 1.5% of NCK have whitish lesions of leucoplastic appearance. 79% of CKs and 23.9% of NCKs have recessions. 22.6% of CKs and 6% of NCKs suffer from spoiled restorations. 24.2% of CK and 9% of NCK suffer loss of fixed prosthetic restorations. Discussion: Similar to studies in Yemen and Israel, there is a slight predominance of NCKs in our sample. The consumption of khat is also significantly associated with the male sex. A number of articular, mucosal and dental symptoms are significantly associated with khat consumption. Ethiopian, Yemeni and Israeli studies are in agreement with our results. In agreement with a Yemeni study but in contradiction with a Kenyan study, there is a significant association between khat consumption, poor oral hygiene and increased plaque index. Nevertheless, an association between khat consumption and gingival inflammation is not established. In agreement with Israeli and Yemeni studies, there is a significant association between khat consumption, whitish mucosal lesions of leucoplastic appearance and gingival recessions. Regular consumption of khat is also significantly associated with the loss of prosthetic and / or striated restorations. Our results are confirmed by a Saudi study. Conclusion: Regular consumption of khat is significantly associated with a number of oral disorders. Future prevention campaigns should focus on the male population and the concomitant use of tobacco.

Introduction: Disc derangement disorders of the Tempromandibular joint (TMJ) are a group of intra-articular biomechanical disorders in which there is an abnormal relationship in the functional ‘articular cartilaginous’ condyle-disc complex. Arthrocentesis is a valuable effective non-invasive treatment option of many internal derangement cases. Adding benefit to arthrocentesis outcome through the use of platelet rich plasma (PRP) is a point of research taking benefit from growth factors to enhance tissue healing. Objectives: the present study aims to compare the clinical outcome of the use of arthrocentesis alone and arthrocentesis +PRP in management of TMJ internal derangement. Materials and Methods: Fourteen patients with disk displacement without reduction (DDwOR) were included in the study diagnosed according to The Research Diagnostic Criteria for Tempromandibular disorders (RDC/TMD). Cases are randomly allocated into two groups as follow; seven patients underwent intra-articular injections of 2 ml PRP after arthrocentesis (study group) and the other seven patients were treated by the conventional arthrocentesis using Ringer’s solution (control group). The patients were clinically evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively at the intervals of 1 month and 6 months. Results: there was no statistically significant difference between two groups in all the measured parameters were throughout the postoperative period. However both groups showed statistically significant improvement regarding mouth opening and joint pain. Conclusion: arthrocentesis either alone or with PRP injection is a safe and effective method in the treatment of TMDs.
颞下颌关节(TMJ)的椎间盘脱位障碍是一组关节内生物力学障碍，与功能性“关节软骨”髁突-椎间盘复合体存在异常关系。关节穿刺是一种有价值的、有效的、无创的治疗方法。通过使用富血小板血浆(PRP)来增加关节穿刺结果的益处是利用生长因子来促进组织愈合的研究重点。目的:本研究旨在比较单纯关节穿刺与关节穿刺+PRP治疗颞下颌关节内脱位的临床效果。材料与方法:根据《颞下颌疾患研究诊断标准》(RDC/TMD)诊断的14例无复位椎间盘移位(DDwOR)患者纳入研究。病例随机分为以下两组:7例患者关节穿刺后关节内注射2 ml PRP(研究组)，其余7例患者采用常规关节穿刺林格氏液治疗(对照组)。术前、术后每隔1个月和6个月对患者进行临床评价。结果:两组患者术后所有测量参数比较，差异均无统计学意义。然而，两组在张口和关节疼痛方面都有统计学上的显著改善。结论:关节穿刺单独或联合PRP注射是治疗颞下颌关节病安全有效的方法。

Arthrocentesis is a valuable effective non-invasive treatment option of many internal derangement cases. Adding benefit to arthrocentesis outcome through the use of platelet rich plasma (PRP) is a point of research taking benefit from growth factors to enhance tissue healing. Objectives: the present study aims to compare the clinical outcome of the use of arthrocentesis alone and arthrocentesis +PRP in management of TMJ internal derangement. Materials and Methods: Fourteen patients with disk displacement without reduction (DDwOR) were included in the study diagnosed according to The Research Diagnostic Criteria for Tempromandibular disorders (RDC/TMD). Cases are randomly allocated into two groups as follow; seven patients underwent intra-articular injections of 2 ml PRP after arthrocentesis (study group) and the other seven patients were treated by the conventional arthrocentesis using Ringer’s solution (control group). The patients were clinically evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively at the intervals of 1 month and 6 months. Results: there was no statistically significant difference between two groups in all the measured parameters were throughout the postoperative period. However both groups showed statistically significant improvement regarding mouth opening and joint pain. Conclusion: arthrocentesis either alone or with PRP injection is a safe and effective method in the treatment of TMDs.","PeriodicalId":263229,"journal":{"name":"Oral Health and Dental science","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133463098","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}
