Oral cavity metastasis from renal cell carcinoma is rare with poor prognosis. Recently immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have shown promising outcomes in the treatment of advanced RCC. Herein, we report a case of palatal lesion mimicking vascular tumor in a 60-year-old woman with locally advanced kidney cancer (T3aN0M0). She underwent an excisional biopsy, and histopathological examinations revealed an oral metastasis from clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The patient was treated with a combination of two ICIs with nivolumab, a programmed death 1 (PD-1), and ipilimumab, a cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA4). After 3 cycles of systemic immunotherapy, the palate was completely well healed and after 13 months of follow-up, there was no evidence of recurrence. Regarding treatments, radical surgery is often recommended due to a high local control in case of solitary lesions or oligo-metastases. However, this option therapy is associated with a poor quality of life. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case to suggest the benefits of ICIs in the treatment of oral metastases from ccRCC. Combining ICIs with conservative surgery could be another treatment option for oral metastasis in patients with renal cell carcinoma.

Objectives
The aim of this study is to presents an experimental method for surgical guide confection using an intraoral scanner to obtain a 3D model of the patient's complete denture and compare its accuracy with the conventional methodology using computed tomography.
Study design
This prospective in-vitro study used 30 polyurethane pre-manufactured mandibles which were divided into two groups, conventional technique (group I) and a new method using intraoral scanner (group II), establishing the virtually planned position of the dental implants as a control group, considered as the gold standard for postoperative comparison.
Results
The difference between these methods is close to zero and not statistically significant (p > 0.05), being heigh deviation (Xh) with p:0.130 and angulation difference of dental implants between the groups (Ang) with p:0.396.
Conclusion
The acquisition of stereolithography image of the prosthesis using an intraoral scanner has a clinically acceptable accuracy, being in agreement with the conventional method.

Polyacrylamide hydrogel (PAAG) is widely regarded as a safe soft tissue filler and has been extensively utilized for cosmetic enhancements, such as breast and facial augmentation in China from 1997 until its ban in 2006. Common complications associated with its use include inflammation, infection, granulomas, fibrosis, gel migration, and facial and soft tissue deformities. This case report describes a 45-year-old Chinese woman who experienced PAAG migration into her mandible 24 years after facial augmentation, causing irritation of the mandibular alveolar nerve - apparently the first documented instance of this occurrence. Surgical intervention was necessary to remove the migrated gel and associated calcifications. A literature review explored adverse events and management strategies for PAAG complications in cosmetic procedures. While generally considered safe, this report underscores the importance of meticulous injection techniques and careful anatomical site selection to prevent such severe complications.

Introduction
Oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC) seen in the oral cavity are a category of diseases for which dentists may diagnose and even cure. This study evaluated the performance of diagnostic computer software developed to detect oral cancer lesions in intra-oral retrospective patient images.
Materials and methods
Oral cancer lesions were labeled with CranioCatch labeling program (CranioCatch, Eskişehir, Turkey) and polygonal type labeling method on a total of 65 anonymous retrospective intraoral patient images of oral mucosa that were diagnosed with oral cancer histopathologically by incisional biopsy from individuals in our clinic. All images have been rechecked and verified by experienced experts. This data set was divided into training (n = 53), validation (n = 6) and test (n = 6) sets. Artificial intelligence model was developed using YOLOv5 architecture, which is a deep learning approach. Model success was evaluated with confusion matrix.
Results
When the success rate in estimating the images reserved for the test not used in education was evaluated, the F1, sensitivity and precision results of the artificial intelligence model obtained using the YOLOv5 architecture were found to be 0.667, 0.667 and 0.667, respectively.
Conclusions
Our study reveals that OCSCC lesions carry discriminative visual appearances, which can be identified by deep learning algorithm. Artificial intelligence shows promise in the prediagnosis of oral cancer lesions. The success rates will increase in the training models of the data set that will be formed with more images.

Introduction
The aim of this 11-year retrospective multicentric study is to evaluate the policy of 14 maxillofacial surgery divisions in terms of titanium plate removal from paediatric patients who had undergone open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) to treat maxillofacial fractures.
Material and methods
Patients ≤ 16 years undergoing surgical treatment for fractures of middle and lower third of the face between January 2011 and December 2022, with a minimum follow-up of 6 months, were included. Age (group A: ≤ 6 years, B: 7–12 years, C: 13–16 years), sex, fracture location and type, surgical approach, number, and location of positioned and removed plates, timing and indications for removal were recorded.
Results
191/383 (50 %) patients (median age, 10 years; M:F ratio 2.1:1) underwent removal of 319/708 (45 %) plates. Maxillary dentoalveolar process (91 %), angle/ramus (63 %) and mandibular body (61 %) had a significantly higher removal rate than other fracture sites (p < 0.001). A significant decreasing trend in removal with increasing age was observed, from 83 % in Group A to 24 % in Group C (p < 0.001). On the total of positioned plates, 11 % were removed for symptomatic reasons (5 % infections, 6 % discomfort/pain) and 34 % for other reasons (28 % scheduled removal).
Discussion
This multicentric study showed that plate removal was not performed routinely in the paediatric population. The incidence and causes of symptomatic plates removal were consistent with the literature, while the plate removal rate from asymptomatic patients was lower. A correlation was found between increasing age and a reduction in the frequency of plate removal procedures.

Objective
This study aims to evaluate the capacity of ChatGPT-4o to generate new systematic review ideas in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery. The data obtained from this study will provide evidence-based information to oral and maxillofacial surgeons regarding the academic use of GPT-4o.
Materials and methods
ChatGPT-4o was asked to provide four previously unpublished systematic review ideas each for the topics of impacted third molars, dental implants, orthognathic surgery, and temporomandibular disorders. A literature search was conducted in the PubMed database to check if the ideas generated by GPT-4o had been previously published, and the search results were compared with the ideas generated by the AI.
Results
The PubMed database search resulted in a total of 871 publications, with 37 publications found to be related to the topics generated by GPT-4o after the first and second screening. Out of the 16 publication ideas generated by GPT-4o, 9 (56.25 %) were determined to be previously unexplored according to the PubMed database search. There was no statistically significant relationship between the presence of ChatGPT's suggestions in PubMed and the subject areas of the studies.
Conclusion
ChatGPT-4o has a high potential to be used as a valuable tool for suggesting systematic review topics in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Additionally, this tool can assist researchers not only in proposing publication ideas but also in developing the methodology of the study.

Objective
Malignant transformation of craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (FD) is not common and its clinicopathological as well as molecular characteristics remain largely unknown with limited literature reports.
Study design
Patients diagnosed with FD including McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS), polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (PFD), and monostotic fibrous dysplasia (MFD), accompanied by malignant transformation at our institution over the past 18 years (2005–2023) were retrospectively screened and analyzed to investigate the epidemiology and clinicopathological features of these tumors.
Results
Three hundred and five patients were diagnosed as FD in our hospital from 2005 to 2023, with 176 females (57.7 %) and 129 males (42.3 %). The average age at diagnosis was 28.35 years, ranging from 7 to 70 years. A total number of 15 (4. 9 %) cases of FD with malignant transformation were selected. Among these 15 patients, the age of the initial diagnosis of FD ranged from 6 to 54 years (mean age 28.87 ± 16.77), and the ages when malignant transformation occurred ranged from 18 to 57 years (mean age 38.53 ± 13.05). Among 15 patients, 12 patients were female (80 %) and 3 were male (20 %). Fifteen cases included MSA in 2 patients, PFD in 4 patients, and MFD in 9 patients. Of the anatomical sites in craniofacial bones, the most common site of the lesion was the maxilla, followed by the mandible. Malignant neoplasm arising in FD were osteosarcoma (12/15), chondrosarcoma (1/15) and high-grade sarcoma of uncertain differentiation (2/15). The 3- and 5-year overall survival rate was 33.3 % (5/15) and 20 % (3/15) respectively. In secondary osteosarcoma from FD, MDM2 and CDK4 positivity were 33.3 % and 41.7 % respectively, and only one case was MDM2-amplified and CDK4-amplified.
Conclusion
Malignant transformation in fibrous dysplasia was an exceedingly rare event and with a female predominance. The overall survival rate was poor. Osteosarcoma was the most common malignant neoplasm arising in FD. MDM2 and CDK4 expression may aid in the diagnosis of secondary osteosarcoma in FD.

The extent to which maxillary anterior alveolar osteotomy alters the facial profile remains unclear. The present study retrospectively analyzed and evaluated changes in maxillary anterior fragments and soft tissue from the nose to upper lip from pre- to postoperatively in patients who underwent the Wassmund and Wunderer (WW) technique.
Methods
Thirty-seven Japanese patients with maxillary prognathism underwent orthognathic surgery with the WW technique were retrospectively included in the present study. Changes in both hard- and soft-tissue landmarks and correlations between both tissues were evaluated using lateral cephalograms taken immediately before and ≥6 months after orthognathic surgery.
Results
The maxillary anterior segment showed predominantly posterior movement, with only slight upward movement. Posterior shift and lingual inclination of the maxillary anterior teeth were prominent. As for soft tissues, the change in the nasal tip was small and posterior change was large in the subnasal and upper lip areas. Nasolabial angle, nasal height, and inclination of nasal tip increased, while upper lip protrusion, nasal tip angle, and philtrum length decreased. Correlations were found between posterior changes in hard tissues and posterior changes in soft tissues. Among these, posterior changes and lingual inclination of the maxillary anterior teeth strongly correlate with posterior changes of the upper lip.
Conclusion
Posterior shift of the maxillary anterior segment using the WW technique is useful because it can greatly improve the protrusion of the upper lip while minimizing nasal morphological changes, and the positioning of the maxillary anterior teeth may be an important key factor.
