We described a novel technique of marking the oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) tumors before the pre-operative neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). The pre-operative NACT may shrink the tumor, making it difficult for the oncosurgeon to identify the pre-NACT tumor area to be included in the surgical resection. Difficulty lies in exact topographic replication/documentation of examination findings on superficial or mucosal surface levels, primarily due to limited surface landmarks.

Article Synopsis
  • This study systematically reviewed the outcomes of laser pulpotomy versus conventional methods in primary teeth, focusing on clinical and radiographic success rates.
  • An electronic search identified 18 randomized controlled trials for analysis, evaluating different laser types against traditional pulpotomy techniques.
  • Results showed no significant differences in success rates between laser and conventional methods, suggesting that diode laser and low-level laser therapy can be effective alternatives, although further high-quality research is needed.

The case report describes the successful interdisciplinary management of a nine-year-old girl who suffered from traumatic intrusion and rotation of her immature teeth with 12 mm apical displacement of teeth 11 and 21 and 10 mm of teeth 12 and 22. It emphasizes the importance of a comprehensive and contemporary approach, which includes orthodontic intervention and regenerative endodontic procedures (REP). The report follows the CARE (case report) guidelines.

Background: During fixed orthodontic treatment, the presence of various fixed appliances like brackets in the oral cavity for a long period leads to various changes in the oral microflora, ultimately affecting the periodontal health of the teeth. Hence, the current study was performed to clinically assess the periodontal status of the subjects undergoing fixed orthodontic treatment and to evaluate the role of age and gender during the first 6 months of treatment.

Materials And Methods: Forty-one subjects (26 females and 15 males) in the age range of 12-28 years scheduled for fixed orthodontic treatment were included in the study.

Background: With increase in exposure to titanium in daily life and its use in medical procedures, there is a greater chance for developing titanium hypersensitivity. Our aim and objective is to examine whether patient patients with titanium implants had a greater incidence of titanium hypersensitivity or not. Titanium is widely considered to have good biocompatibility.
