Dentigerous Cyst Associated With Impacted Inverted Mesiodens: A Report of Three Cases and a Brief Literature Review.

Dentigerous cysts are the second most prevalent type of odontogenic cyst, following radicular cysts, and are primarily associated with impacted teeth. These cysts are most commonly associated with impacted third molars and canines. Notably, approximately 5% of dentigerous cysts are found in conjunction with supernumerary teeth, predominantly mesiodens.

Fabrication of Air Cavity Structures Using DRIE for Acoustic Signal Confinement in FBAR Devices.

Acoustic energy penetrates into the Si substrate at cavity boundaries. Due to this, the air cavity-based bulk acoustic resonators experience higher harmonic mode, parasitic resonance, and spurious mode. To overcome these effects and enhance the performance parameters, a backside air cavity is fabricated using the deep reactive ion etching (DRIE) method.

Effect of sodium dodecyl sulfate on the corrosion protection behaviour of mild steel in acidic medium.

The effectiveness of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is investigated as an inhibitor against a 0.5 M HSO solution on mild steel (MS). The method was conducted for the calculation of critical micelle concentration (CMC) calculation, weight loss and potentiodynamic polarization.

Lateral periodontal cyst of the anterior maxilla: a rare case report.

Background: The lateral periodontal cyst (LPC) is a rare developmental odontogenic cyst, constituting approximately 0.4% of all odontogenic cysts and 0.7% of all jawbone cysts.

Orofacial Epidermoid Cysts: A Case Series.

Epidermoid cysts can occur anywhere in the body but are uncommon in the orofacial region, with a 7% incidence in the head and neck and 1.6% in the oral cavity. We diagnosed two cases in the left cheek and successfully operated on them through an intraoral approach.

Schwannoma of the Soft Palate: A Rare Case Report.

Oral schwannomas are rare, with only 18 cases of soft palate involvement reported since 1985. We report a case of a 15-year-old male with a soft palate schwannoma who was successfully treated by surgical excision and had no complications over a one-year follow-up. Histologically, schwannomas exhibit Antoni A and B patterns.

Custom alloplastic bilateral TMJ reconstruction and distraction osteogenesis in a 6-year-old with OSA secondary to bilateral TMJ ankylosis. A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis in children severely impacts mouth opening, orofacial growth, airway space, and overall quality of life. While costochondral grafts (CCG) are the gold standard for end-stage TMJ reconstruction in children, their unpredictable growth poses challenges, including potential overgrowth, undergrowth, resorption, and reankylosis. However, recent reports have suggested the feasibility of alloplastic TMJ in pediatric patients.

Orthodontic management of amelogenesis imperfecta: A case report.

Key Clinical Message: Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a rare developmental anomaly characterized by poorly developed or absent tooth enamel, which complicates orthodontic treatment due to weak enamel-bracket bond strength. This case report presents a successful management of AI using fixed orthodontic appliances and prosthodontic rehabilitation.

Abstract: Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) causes enamel defects, complicating oral hygiene, reducing masticatory function and lowering self-esteem.

Surgical orthodontic intervention for impacted maxillary permanent central incisors: A case series.

Key Clinical Message: Impacted maxillary central incisors represent a relatively infrequent occurrence. This condition significantly impacts the patient's self-esteem and aesthetic concerns. Effective resolution is achievable through a combined strategy involving surgical exposure, bracket attachment, and subsequent orthodontic extrusion.

Design, Optimization and Performance Assessment of Single Port Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator through Finite Element Simulation.

In this paper, the study is supported by design, FEA simulation, and practical RF measurements on fabricated single-port-cavity-based acoustic resonator for gas sensing applications. In the FEA simulation, frequency domain analysis was performed to enhance the performance of the acoustic resonator. The structural and surface morphologies of the deposited ZnO as a piezoelectric layer have been studied using XRD and AFM.

Management of bilateral temporomandibular joint ankylosis using bilateral custom alloplastic temporomandibular joint prosthesis and genioplasty: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis can be effectively managed through the utilization of autogenous grafts or alloplastic TMJ prostheses. Alloplastic TMJ prostheses are available in two forms: stock or custom. Custom alloplastic TMJ prostheses represent an emerging treatment modality for TMJ ankylosis.

Effects of modified twin block appliance in growing Class II high angle cases: A cephalometric study.

Background: Class II malocclusions represent anteroposterior dysplasia usually resulting from mandibular retrusion. Along with a retropositioned mandible, it can be associated with either upward or backward jaw rotation. High angle cases are often associated with a short ramal height, steeper mandibular plane, and large gonial angle.

Surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion for transverse maxillary discrepancy in adults - Case report.

Introduction And Importance: Transverse maxillary deficiency is one of the most detrimental problems to midfacial growth and the integrated dentoalveolar structures. Early diagnosis and proper treatment of such cases is most important to maintain the balance between the basal bones and stable occlusion.

Case Presentation: In our case, a 17-year-old male had irregular upper front teeth with an unpleasant smile.

Non-pancreatic pseudo cyst of oral cavity-case report.

Introduction And Importance: Cyst is commonly found in oral and maxillofacial region, but non-pancreatic pseudo cyst in this region is quite rare. None of the such cases have been reported so far. Presented here is the case of non-pancreatic pseudo cyst in the right cheek.

Does the Retromandibular Transparotid Approach Provide Quicker Access to Fracture of Mandibular Subcondyle Compared With the Retromandibular Transmasseteric Anterior Parotid Approach?

Purpose: Limited studies are available in the literature comparing various surgical approaches for the management of condylar fractures, and those comparing different types of retromandibular approaches are even fewer in number. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of 2 variants of the retromandibular approach-retromandibular transmasseteric anterior parotid (RMTMAP) and retromandibular transparotid (RMTP) in terms of exposure time, blood loss, facial nerve palsy, sialoceles or parotid fistula formation, infection, and esthetics of scar tissue.

Patients And Methods: A randomized controlled trial was designed in patients with mandibular subcondylar fractures requiring operative intervention.
