Burning mouth syndrome is a debilitating condition of chronic oral pain and/or burning, which mainly affects pre and postmenopausal women. It can be characterized by the presence of other symptoms, such as a sensation of dry mouth (xerostomia), a bitter or metallic taste (dysgeusia) and tingling. BMS can be classified into two clinical forms: primary and secondary BMS. The primary BMS is essential or idiopathic, in which the organic local/systemic causes cannot be identified. The secondary BMS is caused by local, systemic, and/ or psychological factors; thus, its diagnosis depends on identification of the exact causative factor. Its etiology is complex and not well defined, suggesting neuropathic mechanisms. Its diagnosis continues to be a challenge for the clinician since there are no sufficiently objective and universally accepted criteria. This disease is usually characterized by presenting many symptoms, but without clinical signs, which makes its diagnosis difficult as it excludes lesions in the oral mucosa by its own definition. Therapy has been found to be effective for reducing the oral burning or pain symptom in some BMS patients previous clinical trials found that drug therapy with capsaicin, alpha-lipoic acid, clonazepam, and antidepressants may provide relief of oral burning or pain symptom but given the complexity of this syndrome, there are currently no widely accepted guidelines for its treatment. Aim :Update knowledge on burning mouth syndrome treatment, pathophysiology, analyzing current and innovative therapeutic procedures and assessing their effective efficacy.

The rehabilitation of the posterior sites of the maxilla with dental implants is a therapeutic procedure often influenced by the atrophy of the maxillary bone, caused by either the loss of dental elements or by the maxillary sinus pneumatization. Bone loss in the upper maxillae which prevents the placement of implant fixture, may be fixed with surgical bone regenerations techniques, such as the sinus lift, or with the placement of zygomatic and/or pterygoid implants. Although the proved effectiveness of these invasive therapeutic approaches, the biological and economic costs may be high. Also, the failure of these procedure, may further prevent the possibility of a second implant rehabilitation. In this scenario, the use of the short and ultra-short implants may be considered a valid minimally invasive alternative for the rehabilitation of the atrophic edentulous crests. Here, we describe a case of a female patient presenting with atrophic posterior maxilla which was rehabilitated with an implant of 3 millimeters in length after the failure of a previous surgical maxillary sinus lift through lateral window approach and with a total follow-up of 36 months.

The ageing process of the face involves a level of bone erosion that generates a morphological change in the main features of a person’s face. Consequently, the muscular structures of facial expression also undergo changes in their functionality. Another important factor that can shift bone ageing in one district over the other is altered mimicry due to altered skeletal growth. The study carried out that led to the standardisation of this technique involves the restoration of the bone gap due to physiological bone ageing and bone compensation in those cases where there is an alteration of normal maxillary and mandibular development and growth. The technique involves supraperiosteal bolus infiltrations of 2-phase hyaluronic acid-based gels with very high cohesiveness for maximum volumetric compensation with a small quantity of product. This functional treatment aims to achieve a dynamic and functional modification of each patient’s subjective physiological muscle contraction. The study was substantiated by a team of specialists who highlighted the changes by means of electromyographic and ultrasound examination and photography. Key words: miofacial function, miofacial treatment, Skeletal anterior open bite, Orofacial myofunctional status, Orofacial myofunctional therapy, Filler, Anthropometry; Facial beauty; Facial measurements; Quantitative analysis.

Fifty percent of the adult population suffers from periodontal disease. Patients with Stage IV periodontal disease have altered physiological dental relationships such as masticatory dysfunction, secondary occlusal trauma, increased tooth mobility, bite collapse, tooth migration and flaring. Occlusal forces can alter and adversely affect the outcome of periodontal therapy, thus orthodontic treatment can be considered to re-store occlusal harmony as well as improve smile aesthetics. The objectives of this article were 1) to underline the possible factors involved in the relationship between systemic conditions and periodontal disease during orthodontic treatment in patients with periodontal issues; 2) to propose an Orthodontic-Periodontal Risk Assessment model (OPRA) to account for risk factors associated with orthodontic treatment, estimating their impact on periodontal health in susceptible patients.

The aim of the present narrative review was to summarize the main indications of antibiotic prophylaxis in dentistry. A search was performed via the search engines Pubmed, Scopus and Web of Science. All types of articles were included in the study except for those found in the various search engines and publications not related to the topic addressed, which were excluded. With the limitations of this study, antibiotic prophylaxis could play a decisive role in avoiding post-operative infections, especially in more invasive surgeries and in compromised patients. Further clinical studies could be useful to further investigate the role of antibiotic prophylaxis according to individual systemic diseases.
目前的叙述回顾的目的是总结抗生素预防在牙科的主要指征。通过Pubmed, Scopus和Web of Science搜索引擎进行了搜索。所有类型的文章都包括在研究中，但在各种搜索引擎和出版物中发现的与所讨论的主题无关的文章被排除在外。由于本研究的局限性，抗生素预防可以在避免术后感染方面发挥决定性作用，特别是在侵入性手术和受损患者中。进一步的临床研究将有助于根据个体全身性疾病进一步探讨抗生素预防的作用。

There are many recognized dental anomalies, among the least common being the “triple tooth”, with a prevalence of 0.02% in the primary dentition. However, such malformation can more easily lead not only to carious pathology, due to dental dysmorphisms, and pulpal lesions, but also to rhizalysis and agenesis of the permanent elements, causing eruption alterations and malocclusions. Therefore, techniques such as CBCT and 3D anatomical replicas have been proposed to be able to study complex clinical situations such as the triple tooth in its entirety, in order to analyze anatomical structures and identify the best treatment plan. In this paper we propose a clinical case of a triple tooth in a 6-year-old child in the left mandible with fusion of incisor with a supernumerary tooth associated with the lateral incisor fusion.

A 40-year-old male patient presented with diffuse radiolucent lesions on the upper maxilla at the apex of the incisors, canines, premolars, and molars. Surgical excision of the lesions was performed, and the biopsy specimens were submitted for histological analysis: the lesions of the first quadrant were found to be a squamous odontogenic tumor, a rare benign neoplasm of odontogenic origin. The purpose of this article is to describe the clinical, radiographic and histological aspects of odontogenic squamous tumor.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the Tpredictability of orthodontic treatment with clear aligners monitored by Dental Monitoring® (DM) and to assess if using the DM system can actually lead to better results and shorter treatment times. A secondary objective is to assess whether the DM system can be more effective in monitoring one type of malocclusion over another, namely: crowding, crossbite and diastema. A total of 55 patients treated consecutively with clear aligners were selected. All patients were asked to use the DM system with scheduled appointments at 7–8-week intervals. Our results show that photos and scans taken in the chair correspond accurately to the photos and scan taken by the patient using the DM system. Results also show that the different malocclusions did not show any difference in predictability when using the DM system. This study concluded that treatment time was indeed reduced in terms of total number of in-office appointments.
