Even though periapical radiograph could detect cemental tear in these three teeth, the cone-beam computed tomography scanning clearly revealed the pattern of the cemental tear, which was later confirmed by histopathological examination. Therefore, this case report shows the benefits of incorporating both cone-beam computed tomography and histopathological examination to diagnose cemental tear.

- - Oral candidiasis is a fungal infection that can occur in people with weakened immune systems, and it can sometimes arise in patients undergoing orthodontic treatment.
- - A unique case is reported involving a healthy 16-year-old girl who developed oral thrush on her tongue and a related sore on the roof of her mouth due to her braces.
- - The condition was likely worsened by her fixed orthodontic appliance and a low pH in her saliva, which can contribute to the growth of the fungus.
