Application of Hard and Soft Tissue Regenerative Approach in Predictable Management of Peri-Implantitis: A Five-Year Follow-Up Case Report.

As implant dentistry expands, the number of implants being placed increases, and so does the prevalence of associated complications, resulting in implant failure if not timely attended. The present case report aims to discuss the successful regenerative management of peri-implantitis by both hard and soft tissue augmentation with a five-year follow-up. A 60-year-old male reported a chief complaint of purulent discharge, 7 mm peri-implant probing depth, and radiographic bone loss with no pathologic mobility of the dental implant.

Management of massive peripheral ossifying fibroma using diode laser.

Peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) represents a non-neoplastic, reactive lesion of gingiva. The precise etiopathogenesis of POF is unclear; however, it is suggested to originate from the connective tissue of periodontal ligament. This lesion predominantly occurs in the maxillary anterior region.

Management of a Two-rooted Maxillary Central Incisor Using Cone-beam Computed Tomography: Importance of Three-dimensional Imaging.

We report a rare case of a two-rooted maxillary central incisor, stressing the importance of three-dimensional imaging in treatment planning and conservative approach of management. Endodontic treatment of this central incisor was carried out with a successful outcome.

Clinical management of a complicated crown-root fracture using autogenous tooth fragment: A biological restorative approach.

Trauma resulting in crown-root fracture is one of the most challenging fracture types. However, biologic width involvement should be carefully evaluated. Reattachment of tooth fragment to a fractured tooth remains as the treatment of choice because of its simplicity, natural esthetics, and conservation of tooth structure.

Ascorbic acid deficiency: a case report.

Scurvy is well known since ancient times, but it is rarely seen in the developed world today owing to the discovery of its link to the dietary deficiency of ascorbic acid. It is very uncommon in the pediatric population, and is usually seen in children with severely restricted diet attributable to psychiatric or developmental disturbances. The condition presents itself by the formation of perifollicular petechiae and bruising, gingival inflammation and bleeding, and, in children, bone disease.

Talon cusps, macrodontia, and aberrant tooth morphology in Berardinelli-Seip syndrome.

Berardinelli-Seip syndrome is a congenital form of generalized lipodystrophy, transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait. It is well documented in medicine and skin. It is a rare disorder caused by mutations of AGPAT2 gene or BSCL2 gene.
