The aim was to establish a specific and definite connection between non-syndromic orofacial cleft patients and associated congenital heart disease (CHD). Following PRISMA guidelines, selective databases were searched for data collection. Studies showing a definite association of CHD with orofacial cleft were included, and studies non-specific of the association of orofacial cleft with CHD were excluded.

Background And Aim: Mucormycosis is a potentially lethal but rare fungal infection that is rapidly progressive. Rhino-orbito-cerebral mucormycosis (ROCM) was the predominant presentation of COVID-19-associated mucormycosis (CAM). Hence, the present study aimed to assess the oral manifestations in CAM patients admitted to the Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences-A Tertiary Health Care Center.

- Odontomas are abnormal growths that can disrupt oral function and cause facial deformities due to issues with the development of tooth-related cells.
- A patient experienced swelling in the lower jaw, which was diagnosed as a complex odontome using clinical and X-ray findings, later confirmed through histological analysis.
- Surgical removal of the odontome led to the discovery of 82 small tooth-like structures, and early intervention was emphasized as key to preventing further deformities and ensuring better outcomes.
Cutaneous horn is conical shape of compact keratin that resembles a miniature animal horn. Though morphologically similar to horns in animals they are histologically very different from them. It is a circumscribed, conical, hyperkeratotic dense protrusion with epithelial cornification above the skin surface in response to a wide range of underlying benign and malignant pathological changes.

Aim: This study was conducted to determine and compare the amount of lower incisor proclination during de-crowding if any of the Mini-Uni Twin Brackets with that of the standard double width brackets.
Materials And Methods: A total of 20 patients i.
Introduction: Etching of enamel and dentin surfaces increases the surface area of the substrate for better bonding of the tooth colored restorative materials. Acid etching is the most commonly used method. Recently, hard tissue lasers have been used for this purpose.
