Interdisciplinary care provides a comprehensive method for the management of impacted teeth. Careful planning is necessary to achieve the desired treatment goals. This article highlights the importance of diagnosis as well as adequate treatment planning for the eruption of impacted teeth and the management of missing molars to achieve a balanced occlusion in circumstances when an ideal occlusion cannot be achieved.

We have studied the effects of Zn doping on the structural and electronic properties of epitaxial NdNiO thin films grown on single-crystal LaAlO (001) (LAO) substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The films are deposited in two sets, one with variation in Zn doping, and another with variation in thickness for undoped and 2% Zn doping. The experimental investigations show that Zn occupies Ni-site and that the films are grown with an in-plane compressive strain on LAO.

Two sets of films, S and S , have tensile strain whereas the films of S show compressive strain. For each set, two thin films of fixed thickness (5 nm) were deposited; one film was annealed in situ in oxygen partial pressure just after deposition, the other film was not annealed.

Technical difficulties and implant related complications are yet to be addressed.
Aim: To understand the technical difficulties involved in PFN and role of provisional fixation of fracture by Steinmann-pin.

Since Oxford dictionary has described 'Selfie', selfie deaths have received a fair amount of coverage but the extent of the problem and the data behind it have not been appropriately explored. The aim of our study is to obtain epidemiological characteristics of selfie-related mortality worldwide with the objective of providing an insight to 'Why selfie', 'Why risky', 'Psychological basis' and 'measures of control.' Despite thousands of web pages, very few scientific articles are available in medical journals.

Introduction: Plasters have been frequently associated with known complications such as infection, and compartment syndrome or deep vein thrombosis. However, life-threatening complication of necrotizing fasciitis (NF) has not been frequently attributed to plaster.
Case Report: We had a case of a 62-year male developing a lethal NF triggered by a below knee plaster for undisplaced fracture medial malleolus after twisting injury.
Introduction: The management of highly comminuted distal radius fractures still remains a major treatment challenge. Articular comminution and compromised bone quality are the culprits. One novel approach is the technique of Internal Distraction Plating which involves "bridging" the fracture with the use of a standard 3.

The study cohort was derived from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project Nationwide Inpatient Sample database from 2006 to 2011. Peripheral endovascular interventions were identified using appropriate International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) Diagnostic and procedural codes.
