Mucoceles are cavities filled with mucus and are one of the most common benign soft tissue masses that occur in the oral cavity. They are traumatic in origin and are formed when the main duct of a minor salivary gland is traumatized with subsequent extravasation of the mucus into the fibrous connective tissue forming a cyst like cavity. Mucoceles can appear by an extravasation or a retention mechanism. They appear as discrete, small, translucent, soft, painless swelling of the mucosa ranging from normal pink to deep blue in color and are most commonly found on the lower lip, lateral to the midline and may occur at any age, but they are more frequently seen in the second and third decade of life. The lesion has no sex predilection and occurs more frequently in children, adolescents. Generally managed by conservative surgical excision.

Proper finishing and polishing have become the indispensable step in clinical restorative dentistry due to increased aesthetic demands. There are several polishing systems containing fine particle size abrasives. The adhesion of bacterial plaque to restoration depends on the surface properties and composition of materials. In literature, surface roughness after polishing is well documented, but the timing, i.e., immediate or delayed polishing affecting the bacterial adherence and microhardness on the composite needs research. As the Streptococcus mutans has a major role in primary and secondary caries, so in this light, this study is conducted to investigate the best timing of polishing affecting the bacterial adhesion and microhardness of composite resin.: To evaluate the Streptococcal mutans adhesion and microhardness of composite resin after polishing them, immediately and after 24 hours of curing.: Sixty specimens were made from composite resin Filtek Z 350 XT (3M ESPE) of 6mm diameter and 4mm height, was cured by placing a Mylar strip and divided into 3 groups- Group 1 the control group with only MYLAR-STRIP, Group 2- Polishing system SOF-LEX (3M ESPE Dental products St. Paul, MN,USA.) Group 3- Polishing with SUPER-SNAP (Shofu Inc., Kyoto, Japan). Group 2 and 3 were further divided into two subgroups according to the polishing time- immediate and delayed. The Streptococcal mutans adhesion for each group was measured by colony forming units and compared. The mean log of CFU/mL present in the biofilm was also calculated. The results of bacterial adherence was analysed by three-way ANOVA (analysis of variance) (p<0.01) and the ANOVA two-way of variance was used for checking microhardness (p<0.01). A p value <0.01 was considered to indicate a statistically significant for both bacterial adhesion and hardness. Polishing after 24 hours of curing showed less bacterial adherence on the composite surface, regardless of the polishing treatment performed(p<0.01). Polishing with SOF-LEX(Group-2) had the lower bacterial adherence than SUPER-SNAP (Group-3), Control group (Mylar matrix strip) promoted the lowest bacterial adhesion on the surface composites. Micro hardness of composite was lowest in Mylar matrix group. Immediate polishing procedure showed lower microhardness values as compared to polishing that was delayed for 24hours for both polishing groups. SOF-LEX system can be used for chairside polishing of composite restorations in clinic and delayed finishing and polishing of composite shows better surface microhardness values.

Non-surgical periodontal disease therapy has traditionally been performed through a series of sessions by a jaw quadrant or sextant. Reinfection from untreated periodontal pockets, tongue, and tonsils might develop at this time. In contrast, in the full-mouth disinfection (FMD) technique, all teeth's root instrumentation is finished within 24 hours and comprises, Cleaning the tongue and using chlorhexidine on a regular basis.

Handful cases of anonymous viral pneumonia were registered in China in December 2019. The pathogen, a novel coronavirus called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV-2), was isolated from infected patient’s lower respiratory tract samples, and was referred to as Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).So far, insufficient importance has been given to the prevalence of fungal infections in patients infected with COVID-19 who may experience lymphocytopaenia, hospitalization in intensive care unit (ICU), broad-spectrum antibiotic and corticosteroid usage, intubation, cytokine storms, and possessing chronic illness which make them seriously immunocompromised.Here, we present a case associated with oral lesions manifested by this virus.

Odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) are epithelial developmental cysts. It occurs Mainly in the second and third decades, with a slight predilection for males Usually, OKCs are solitary lesions. They may occur mostly in the Mandible; most commonly in the posterior body and Ascending ramus. Radiographically, OKCs present as A well defined radiolucent lesions with smooth and corticated margins. They may present as a Multilocular or unilocular radiolucent lesion. In most of the cases, there is an unerupted tooth involved with the Lesion.OKC’s is one of the most aggressive odontogenic Cysts due to its high recurrence rate and its tendency to invade adjacent tissue. Treatment Approaches vary in different studies from marsupialization and enucleation, which may be combined with Adjuvant therapy such as cryotherapy or Carnoy’s solution, BIPP to marginal or radical resection.

Gene expression controls the cellular differentiation and morphogenesis for body organisation. Every species has different and unique body patterns and this is influenced by certain group of genes called as homeobox genes. Molecular events are involved in the tooth development process or odontogenesis and this is also controlled by homeobox genes. It was first identified in fruit fly Drosophila Melanogaster.

Traumatic fibroma, also called irritation fibroma is a common oral lesion which is benign and exophytic in appearance. It develops as result of tissue injury and can occur at any age. It is the healed end product of the inflammatory hyperplastic lesion. Sites most commonly involved are buccal mucosa, any soft tissue site, tongue, gingiva. Female predilection seen. It is the most common reactive lesion, and the treatment of choice is surgical excision. The aim of this case report is to present a benign lesion in a 33 years old female patient, who reported to the department with a complaint of pain and swelling in the right upper front tooth region since 12-15 days and on examination, the lesion appeared well circumscribed, lobulated, tender, smooth, firm and reddish pink swelling measuring 2 cm × 3 cm involving right maxillary premolars. Surgical excision of the lesion was done. No recurrence was noted 1 month postoperatively. Radiographic and histopathological examination is essential for diagnosis to accurate as it clinically resembles various lesions such as peripheral giant cell granuloma, pyogenic granuloma or odontogenic tumors.

In routine orthodontics practice anchorage is a critical factors that determining the success of an orthodontic treatment. For many years’ anchorage has been a strenuous factor. Many modalities have been tried for preventing the anchorage loss by using the extra oral and intraoral devices according to various scientific literature, yet the orthodontists did not find any convenient solutions to solve this problem until the mini- implants were emerged to the speciality. During the early 20 century introduction of various skeletal anchorage devices which includes prosthetic implants, palatal implants, mini-plates and screws. The implants used in orthodontics for the purpose of effective treatment are also known as Temporary Anchorage Devices (TADs), which helps in bringing down the strenuous efforts employed to prevent anchorage loss and they are easy and small and can be insert and remove without stenos efforts, they can be immediately loaded after insertion, and they can provide absolute anchorage for orthodontic treatment, which require minimal need patient compliance there by increasing its popularity. This article gives a brief reviews of indications, contraindications, safety zones for TADs, their insertion procedure, complications, failures and medico legal aspects.

This clinical report describes a comprehensive prosthodontic treatment of a young patient diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma in hard palate. The treatment procedures included surgical removal of the tumor, immediate surgical plate and interim obturator. The surgical plate and interim prosthesis were fabricated using conventional polymethyl methacrylate resin material with retention derived from wrought wire clasps to the remaining natural teeth. The follow-up system revealed satisfactory results with no deterioration in the prosthesis.
