A 3-year Retrospective Analysis of Dento-Alveolar Injuries at the University Children's Hospital Zurich (2018-2020).

Children and adolescents are vulnerable to dental trauma due to their active lifestyles, lack of coordination, and inexperience in recognizing potentially dangerous situations. Early recognition and proper management of dental trauma is crucial in order to minimize the risk of complications and ensure optimal outcomes. The aim of this study was to perform a retrospective analysis of all dento-alveolar injuries in children and adolescents who were treated at the University Children's Hospital Zurich from 2018-2020 by the resident physicians of the Centre of Dental Medicine of the University of Zurich.

Guided flapless apicoectomy of the palatal root of a maxillary molar: a case presentation.

This case report presents a novel approach for minimally invasive fully guided apicoectomy of the palatal root of a maxillary first molar using a custom-made 3D-printed template. To date, the development of diagnostic radiographic tools such as high-resolution CBCT devices, as well as of CAD planning software and CAM technologies, like 3D printing, allow for increased application in endodontics. The patient (a 38-year-old woman) suffered from pain on the right side of the face since 4 weeks and was diagnosed with chronic apical periodontitis of the palatal root of the maxillary right first molar.
