: Aim of the study was to determine the adjunctive role of subgingival irrigating solutions i.e., ozonated water, 0.2% chlorhexidine and 5% Povidine Iodine in Phase-I periodontal treatment and to compare the efficacy of subgingival irrigating medicament being used in studyRandomized controlled clinical trial was performed on 45 patients that were divided into three groups, the ozone group (Group A), chlorhexidine group (Group B) and povidone iodine group (Group C). Patients underwent scaling and root planing (SRP) in a single visit followed by irrigation with ozone water, chlorhexidine and povidone iodine in. The clinical parameters of Gingival Index (GI), Plaque Index (PI), probing pocket depth (PPD), Clinical Attachment Level (CAL) and modified sulcular bleeding index were measured at baseline, at 1 month and at the end of 3 months.All clinical parameters like plaque index, gingival index, probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level and modified sulcus bleeding index at baseline, 1 month and after 3 months. Ozone group was found to be superior than chlorhexidine followed by Povidone Iodine in terms of reduction of Plaque Index. However, intergroup comparison for other parameters did showed difference but it was not statistically significant.: It can be concluded that use of ozone can serve as beneficial irrigating solution to treat chronic periodontitis for home care and professional practice. More studies with a larger sample size may be used to evaluate the potential of these irrigating agents.

: The study described the patterns of malocclusion traits and the orthodontic treatment needs at a Dental Hospital using the Index of Orthodontic Treatment Needs (IOTN), Dental Health Component (DHC). We evaluated 2079 pre-treatment study models and clinical records of orthodontic patients from the Department of Orthodontics waiting list. The assessment of malocclusion was measured according to the molar relationship using Angle's classification.The DHC was further used to assess the five malocclusion traits: - missing teeth, overjet, crossbite, displacement of contact point, and overbite, including open bite (MOCDO). The MOCDO score was calculated to determine the orthodontic treatment needed based on the DHC grades 1–5. The data was analysed using SPSS version 28 and the level of significance was set at p≤ 0.05.: The sample consisted of 59.3% (n=1232) females and 40.7% (n= 847) males. The mean age of the study sample was 14 years (SD±2.3) and ranged between 12 to 20 years. Angle's Class I malocclusion was found in 57.7% of the sample, followed by Class II (35.4%) and Class III (6.9%). The orthodontic treatment needs DHC grade were: 53% grade 4 (need for orthodontic treatment), 21% grade 5 (great need for orthodontic treatment), 17% grade 3 (borderline need for orthodontic treatment), 6% grade 2 (little need for orthodontic treatment), and 3% grade 1 (no orthodontic treatment need). A statistically significant difference was found in Angle Class I malocclusion and the DHC grades (p=0.001), as well as MOCDO variables and DHC grades (p=0.001).Angle's Class I malocclusion was the most predominant in our study sample compared to Class II and Class III malocclusions. The DHC of IOTN was successfully used to evaluate the severity of malocclusion with the majority of the sample in Grades 4 and 5, requiring mandatory orthodontic treatment. A high frequency of the occlusal traits included missing teeth, overjet, crossbite, displaced contacts and overbite. The results of our study showed that most patients on the orthodontic waiting list require mandatory orthodontic treatment. Therefore, it is recommended that DHC be used to place patients on the waiting list to prioritise orthodontic treatment.

Cleft palate is a facial deformity that allows primary and permanent teeth to be affected by anomalies such as malpositions and malformations. The lateral incisors are the most commonly affected in patients with cleft palate. The diagnosis of malposition and dental malformation is established through history taking, clinical examination, and diagnostic evaluation in the form of study models, clinical photos, and panoramic radiographs. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between complete unilateral and bilateral cleft palate and maxillary lateral incisor malposition and malformation. The research method is analytic cross-sectional, with the research sample consisting of 35 primary data from clinical examinations and secondary data from panoramic radiographs of pediatric patients 5-13 years old at YPPCBL RSGM Padjadjaran University, Bandung. This study looked at the clinical condition of dental anomalies and the interpretation of panoramic radiographs. Data were analyzed using Kendall Concordal analysis and Spearman rank correlation. The results showed that the impaction is the most common type of maxillary lateral incisor malposition found in complete unilateral and bilateral cleft palate. Peg shape is the most common type of maxillary lateral incisor malformation found in complete unilateral cleft palate. The highest rate of maxillary lateral incisor agenesis was found in bilateral complete cleft palate compared to complete unilateral clefts. There is a relationship between complete unilateral and bilateral cleft palate, which was statistically significant at 78% with p-value = 5.69E-32 <0.05. The conclusion of the study is there is a relationship between the unilateral cleft palate; and bilateral complete with malposition and malformation of maxillary lateral incisors.

The over-denture is a frequently employed treatment for elderly patients who have two or more remaining teeth in the arch. The presence of these remaining teeth contributes to the preservation of the alveolar ridge, provides sensory feedback, and enhances the stability and retention of the denture. This is in contrast to conventional complete dentures, where stability and retention are typically improved by utilizing coping or attachments over the remaining portions of the teeth. The incorporation of these remaining teeth significantly enhances the overall stability and retention of the denture. This case report presents prosthetic rehabilitation of a partially dentulous mandibular arch with a tooth supported overdenture with extra coronal attachments aimed to attain normal structure and functionality.

: Haemophilia is a genetic X linked recessive bleeding disorder characterized by a deficiency or absence of certain clotting factors in the blood, primarily factors VIII (haemophilia A) or factor IX (haemophilia B). Dental caries and periodontal diseases are two main oral diseases affecting majority of population, but their effects are enhanced in hemophiliacs and medically compromised patients. There is a lack of epidemiological studies regarding oral health and oral hygiene of hemophilic patient especially in central India. This study therefore, aimed to evaluate the oral hygiene awareness and hygiene practices of patients with hemophilia in Indore district. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 30 hemophilic patients who were selected via snow ball sampling technique. The patients who were ready to participate voluntarily in the study were included. A study questionnaire in Hindi and English was given to the patients to obtain their knowledge about oral hygiene and dental health awareness.: Thirty hemophilic patients participated in the study with a mean age of 20 ±15 years. All the participants were male. Although hemophilic patients were conscious of oral hygiene, the study found most of them had poor dental practices. The majority of participants (56.67%) reported of using soft-bristled brushes. Only 56.67% of the participants reported cleaning their mouths after meals and having seen gum bleeding. The majority of hemophilia patients (46.15%) reported using Factor VIII, while some also used Tranexamic acid (15.39%).: Oral hygiene is crucial for everyone, but it holds particular importance for individuals with hemophilia. Good oral hygiene reduces the need for invasive dental treatments, minimizing potential complications.

The management of the resorbed mandibular ridge is a difficult task. Rehabilitating a patient who is completely edentulous is a common dental procedure, but it can sometimes be challenging and difficult. Making an impression with the available stock trays, even after modification, is difficult in extremely resorbed ridges.Many materials have been used to record and transfer the neutral zone in complete dentures. So here we present a new technique of making an impression with properly adapted wire for recording the impression along with recording the neutral zone with a heavy body addition silicone impression material that rests on the wire loops projecting upward on the denture base to achieve maximum retention and stability and also for the preservation of residual alveolar ridge.

Artificial intelligence (AI) in dentistry is poised to alter a number of aspects of the industry, marking a paradigm shift of profound significance. Dental diagnostic procedures are being streamlined and optimized with the use of artificial intelligence technologies. Machine learning algorithms have demonstrated exceptional competence in the early identification of dental disorders, including cavities, periodontal diseases, and structural abnormalities in teeth, thanks to their extensive training on large datasets of dental pictures. These developments make it easier to intervene quickly, which enhances patient outcomes and lessens the strain on healthcare systems.Furthermore, tailored care and AI-driven treatment planning have become important areas of innovation. AI algorithms assist in the creation of customized treatment plans by analysing patient data, including genetic predispositions and medical histories. The application of AI extends beyond diagnostics and treatment planning to optimize administrative tasks within dental practices. Automated appointment scheduling, billing processes, and electronic health record management systems powered by AI technologies contribute to increased operational efficiency, allowing dental professionals to focus more on patient care.Combining human knowledge with AI skills has the potential to completely change the dental care industry by offering more precise diagnosis, individualized treatment plans, and enhanced patient experiences all around. As AI develops, its application to dentistry serves as a shining example of advancement, bringing about a new era in oral healthcare marked by increased accessibility, efficiency, and precision.

In individuals with Class II malocclusions, there is an anteroposterior discrepancy between the maxillary and mandibular dentitions, which may or may not be accompanied with a skeletal discrepancy, the most effective treatment option to eliminate is by modified three-piece base arch combined with TADS for simultaneous deep bite correction and en masse retraction.The present case report showcases the treatment results and biomechanics involved for en masse retraction and intrusion of anterior teeth using three-piece intrusion arch and temporary anchorage device.The modified three-piece base arch combined with TADS is effective in controlled translation and intrusion of anteriors and would be a preferable mechanotherapy in low angle case with deep bite, proclined anteriors and Class II malocclusion.
对于Ⅱ类畸形患者，上颌和下颌牙体之间存在前后不一致，可能伴有或不伴有骨骼不一致，最有效的治疗方案是通过改良三件式基底牙弓结合TADS同时进行深咬合矫正和整体牵引来消除这种不一致。本病例报告展示了使用三件式固位牙弓和临时固位装置进行前牙整体牵引和内收的治疗效果和生物力学原理。改良三件式固位牙弓结合 TADS 能有效控制前牙的平移和内收，对于深咬合、前牙前突和 II 类错合畸形的低角度病例来说是一种理想的机械治疗方法。

Taurodontism is an infrequent dental anomaly that predominantly affects the molars and is commonly observed in conjunction with other anomalies or as a component of a syndrome. The phenomenon, previously regarded as a characteristic of early humans, is also observed in contemporary humans albeit with a lower incidence rate. This article presents a unique case study with a female patient who was 35 years old. The patient had taurodontism, a dental condition characterised by enlarged pulp chambers in the molars. Notably, this condition was not found to be connected with any further malformations or syndromes.
