Perception of Oral Health-Related Quality of Life in Children with Epidermolysis Bullosa: A Quantitative and Qualitative Study.

The results of this study confirm the difficulties experienced by patients in the oral sphere. They also show that patients are able to adapt and that their demands go beyond functional rehabilitation. This work should encourage dental practitioners to be part of the overall management of the disease, involving regular checkups, preventive dental measures, and oral hygiene education.

Sexual dimorphism of the mandibular conformational changes in aging human adults: A multislice computed tomographic study by geometric morphometrics.

The aging process has an impact on mandibular bone morphology and can therefore affect shape sexual dimorphism. Understanding the effect of senescence on mandibular shape changes is particularly important to correctly estimate the sex of an individual and predict age-related conformational modifications. The purpose of this study was to assess age-related changes in mandibular shape and sexual dimorphism.

Undiagnosed mandibular degloving following dental trauma.

A 12-year-old girl presented to the Department of Paediatric Dentistry of the Toulouse University Hospital 10 days after a facial injury, complaining of persistent pain and halitosis. Previous examinations only reported trauma of the upper incisors. Further clinical exploration showed an 8 cm laceration of the oral mucosa in the lower labial sulcus, 1.

[Linear lesions: A key dermatological feature of X-linked ectodermal dysplasia in a young girl].

Introduction: X-linked hypo/anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (AED) is the most common form of AED. It is manifested in boys by involvement of the adnexa, teeth and sweat glands. In girls, signs are usually minor and may include linear lesions that are poorly known since they are reported infrequently or overlooked.

Orofacial manifestations of SAPHO syndrome: a systematic review of case reports.

SAPHO (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis) syndrome is a poorly known disease with cutaneous and osteo-articular manifestations requiring a multidisciplinary care. The aim of this study was to review the case reports that have described oral manifestations in patients suffering for this syndrome. A systematic review of case reports was performed on PubMed and Science Direct on January 2020 among all the articles dealing with the disease.
