Multiple fibro-osseous lesions of the jaws: A report of a rare case with a literature review.

Fibro-osseous lesions are a poorly defined category of conditions affecting the jaws and craniofacial bones, and include developmental lesions, reactive or dysplastic lesions, and neoplasms. Fibrous dysplasia and ossifying fibroma are the 2 main types of fibro-osseous lesions affecting the jaw, and ossifying fibroma is a true benign neoplasm of the bone-forming tissues with several well-recognized variants ranging from innocuous to extensively aggressive lesions. However, multiple simultaneous fibro-osseous lesions of the jaw bones involving all quadrants are exceedingly rare.

Knowledge of Impacted Teeth among the Undergraduate Dental Students of a Medical College: A Descriptive Cross-Sectional Study.

Introduction: Third molar impaction is a common patient complaint in dentistry. Common symptoms are localized pain, swelling, bleeding, and difficulty in mouth opening.

Anatomical Position of Lower Third Molar in Relation to Mandibular Canal on Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Images in A Tertiary Care Hospital: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study.

Introduction: The positional relationship between the mandibularcanal with impacted mandibular third molar is the main factor of inferior alveolar nerve injury. The purpose of this study wasto classify the anatomical three dimensional relationship between the proximity of impacted mandibular third molars to the inferior alveolar canal.

Methods: The descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted inthe Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of a tertiary care hospital from July 2020 to August 2020 after obtaining ethical approval from the Institutional Review Committee (Reference number 2506202001).

Smoking, general and oral health related quality of life - a comparative study from Nepal.

Background: Perceived dental health has shown to have a significant predictive effect on overall health perception and life satisfaction. Thus, it seems plausible that Health Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) measures are associated with Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQOL) dimensions in Nepalese context as well. The adverse effects of tobacco on oral health are reported worldwide including Nepal.

A Comparative Study of the Effect of Sutureless Versus Multiple Sutures Technique on Complications following Third Molar Surgery in Nepalese Subpopulation.

Objective: To compare the effect of sutureless versus multiple sutures technique on postoperative variables such as pain, swelling, and trismus after surgical removal of the third molar in Nepalese subpopulation. . Forty-eight patients were equally grouped into multiple sutures (group 1) and sutureless (group 2) groups using a computer-generated random table.
