It is essential to define the exact location of the mental foramen to avoid potential injury to the neurovascular bundle during surgical procedures in the mandibular interforaminal region. This radiographic study was aimed to evaluate the morphology and morphometric dimensions of mental foramen (MF) among Indian population. This study also investigated the dimorphic variations of mental foramen with respect to gender and laterality. The images of 80 subjects( 160 mandibular sites) with the age range of 20 to 60 years who had undergone cone beam computed tomographic (CBCT) were retrieved from the archives and examined for morphology and morphometry of mental foramen. Oval shaped mental foramen was one and a half times greater than round shape, which was predominant in females. Position 4 was the most common location on right and left side respectively. Type I and type III were the most common radiographic appearance of mental foramen on right and left side respectively. The mean mesiodistal, superoinferior and buccolingual dimensions of MF were 2.49 ± 0.86 mm, 2.83 ± 0.73 mm and 2.44 ± 0.72 mm respectively. The mean dimensions of the mental foramen were significantly higher among the males when compared to females. The mental foramen was positioned at an average of 11.13 ± 3.40 mm from the alveolar crest (MF-C) on the right side and was positioned at 10.79 ± 3.21 mm on the left side. The distance of the mental foramen from the alveolar crest was significantly higher among the Group I when compared to Group IV. The morphology of the mental foramen did not show any variations among the gender and age in the Indian population. The morphometric values of the mental foramen showed variability of 1-2 mm among different subjects of our population.

: The aim of this study was to determine the clinical effect of Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF) in combination with Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF) compared to CAF alone in the treatment of adjacent multiple Miller’s Class I GRs. A total of 10 patients with Class I Miller’s recession were randomly assigned by a coin toss method as Group I which received Coronally Advanced Flap alone (CAF) and Group II which received Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF) with Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF). The clinical parameters such as, Recession Height (RH), Recession Width (RW), Probing Pocket Depth (PPD), Clinical Attachment Level (CAL), Keratinized Tissue Width (KTW) and Thickness of Keratinized Tissue (TKT) were measured at baseline and 3 months postoperatively. The Mean Root Coverage (MRC), Complete Root Coverage (CRC) and Root coverage Esthetic Score (RES) were measured after 3 months postoperatively. Statistically significant difference in RH, RW, CAL, KTW, TKT, MRC and RES were observed on comparison of Group I and Group II at 3 months. On comparison, of Group I and Group II, no statistically significant difference was seen in PPD and CRC between the groups at 3 months.The present study indicates that CAF with a CGF proved to be superior. The KTW and TKT augmentation might improve the long-term predictability of the root coverage procedures, hence the use of CGF combined with CAF, diminishes post-surgical relapse and thus providing long-term stability.

The objective of the present study is to evaluate the surface changes like corrosion, surface roughness, micro-fractures and tensile strength of stainless steel mini plates and screws. The study was carried out at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Meghna Institute of Dental Sciences, Nizamabad for a duration of 3 years. Around 34 stainless steel miniplates and 101 stainless steel screws complied to treat maxillofacial fractures of 20 patients for the rigid internal fixation were retrieved. Then the surface changes like corrosion, surface roughness, micro-fractures were evaluated using stereo microscope and scanning electron microscope whereas the tensile strength was measured using a universal testing machine.: The surface roughness and micro-fractures were seen in 100% of the stainless steel miniplates and screws whereas corrosion degradation was seen in 65%. Thereafter, when the tensile strength was evaluated, a mean value of 497N was found to be exhibited by the retrieved miniplates which was enough to withstand the masticatory forces. Through our study, we emphasize to the need for the proper handling techniques to be followed at the time of implant placements so as to avoid implants failures and occurring of other biogenic complications.

Pulp canal obliteration (PCO) is defined as a deposition of hard tissue within the root canal space and a yellow discoloration of clinical crown. These tissues can eventually produce the radiographic appearance of a root canal space that has become partial or completely calcified. These teeth provide an endodontic treatment challenge. The critical management decision being whether to treat these teeth endodontically immediately upon detection of the pulpal obliteration or to wait until symptoms or signs of pulp or periapical disease occur. Success in root canal treatment is based on proper debridement, disinfection and obturation of the root canal system. However, this procedure may be difficult or even impossible to achieve if the pulpal space is calcified. The endodontic treatment performed under these circumstances pose the risk of root perforation, a complication that seriously affects the long-term prognosis of tooth. The present article discusses a series of cases of endodontic treatment in teeth with partially or completely PCO and methods for the clinical management of these cases using contemporary endodontic techniques.

Ludwig angina is a potentially lethal acute cellulitis of the floor of the mouth and neck, including submandibular, submental and sublingual spaces and ultimately leading to airway obstruction. Computed tomography (CT) of the neck with upper thorax has been used in emergency once the airway obstruction is secured to evaluate the severity of the infection, to assess any abscess and mediastinal extension. Therefore knowledge of imaging features of Ludwig’s angina is essential to ensure an accurate diagnosis and initiation of early treatment. CT also plays an important role in evaluation for need of surgical intervention. However, MRI is superior to CT because of its excellent soft tissue contrast and demonstration of various fascial compartments' involvement.

Developmental disturbances such as change in tooth shape, size and number are recognized conditions. One such anomaly is supernumerary root. The condition is more common in molars than in anterior teeth. The studies have however shown the variation in the morphology of single rooted mandibular canine. Adding to the literature is this case report which presents impacted mandibular canine with two roots and root canals using CBCT. The awareness of these variations through varying research materials is a must. The success of treatment depends on internal and external anatomy of tooth as well. Thereby, lack of knowledge of these anatomical aberrations could lead to failure of treatment, especially endodontic treatment. Proper pre operative imaging and interpretation is a key to hike success rates with anatomical complexities and variabilities.

Ameloblastoma is the second most common odontogenic tumor of the oral cavity with the primary site being the mandible. It affects more the mandible than the maxilla. The most common complaint is a painless swelling over the mandibular area. Despite its benign nature, ameloblastoma has a high local recurrence rate, with the most recurrences seen within 5 years after operation. Biopsy and radiological evaluation is mandatory. Although this tumor is benign, because of its behavior it is locally aggressive and requires the most often surgical resection. In our case, a male 36-year old reported with ameloblastoma crossing the mid- line. Ameloblastoma was confirmed on radiographic and biopsy report. The lesions crossing the mid-line made the reconstruction more challenging. As taking into consideration the advantages of free fibula flap, our reconstruction was planned using the same flap.
