Comparison of accuracy between single posterior immediate and delayed implants placed using computer guided implant surgery and a digital laser printed surgical guide: A clinical investigation.

Statement Of Problem: The congruence of surgical implant placement with the preplanned position is important for anatomic and prosthetic precision, minimal complications, and increased longevity. The influence of implant placement timing on the surgical deviations in single posterior implants is unclear.

Purpose: The purpose of this clinical study was to compare deviations between preplanned and single posterior immediate and delayed implants placed using computer-guided digital light processing (DLP) surgical guides fabricated using intraoral scanning and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Peripheral squamous odontogenic tumor masquerading as oral squamous cell carcinoma in an elderly female patient: A rare entity.

Squamous odontogenic tumor is a rare epithelial odontogenic tumor. Only a few cases have been reported in the literature, out of which central cases occurring within the jawbones are more common, and very rarely peripheral cases have been reported. Here, we report a rare case of a peripheral squamous odontogenic tumor occurring in the left lower gingivobuccal sulcus region in a 63-year-old female patient and presented as a firm and fibrotic swelling clinically.

Mass urine sugar testing to tackle post-COVID mucormycosis epidemic in India-MUSTARD concept.

Background: Post-Covid mucormycosis is associated with very high morbidity and reasonably high mortality. The three main causes seem to be covid infection, excessive steroid usage and uncontrolled diabetes.

Methods: Of the three risk factors causing post-Covid mucormycosis, the only risk factor which can be modified quickly is uncontrolled diabetes.

Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva or Munchmeyer's disease: A rare case report.

Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is a rare autosomal dominant disease. It is characterized by widespread soft tissue ossification and congenital stigmata of the extremities, affecting all ethnic backgrounds. The worldwide reported prevalence is approximately 1/2,000,000.

Rare Calcifying Epithelial Odontogenic Tumor In A Hiv Positive Individual.

The calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumour (CEOT) is a rare but well recognized benign odontogenic tumour for any Pathologist. Histologically, it shows sheets of polyhedral epithelial cells with prominent intercellular bridges, hyperchromatic nuclei and globules of amyloid-like material among tumour cells which undergoes calcification. We present a case of CEOT with classical histopathological picture in a 37-year-old HIV positive patient with long evolution history.

Rehabilitation of Posterior Maxilla with Obturator Supported by Zygomatic Implants.

Prosthetic rehabilitation of atrophic maxilla and large maxillary defects can be done successfully by zygomatic implant-supported prosthesis. Zygomatic implants are an avant-garde to complex and invasive-free vascularised osteocutaneous flaps, distraction osteogenesis, and the solution to flap failures. A treated case of tuberculous osteomyelitis, with a class II (Aramany's classification) maxillary defect, reported to oral maxillofacial department, Government Dental College (RUHS-CODS).

The radix entomolaris and radix paramolaris: an endodontic challenge.

Success of endodontic treatment depends on the proper identi-fication of all the canals, thorough chemomechanical preparation followed by three-dimensional obturation with hermetic seal. Failure of any of these steps may occur due to unusual tooth morphology. Usually mandibular molars have two roots with three canals but in few teeth, the number of roots and canals vary.

Management of the dental patient on anticoagulant medication: a review.

Patients taking anticoagulant medication pose a challenge for the clinician. Dentists are often required to manage bleeding as part of routine oral surgery or dental procedures, and altered hemostasis can lead to complications. Nevertheless, use of these medications is generally important for the patient's health and any alteration in the anticoagulant regimen may have untoward sequelae.

Primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma arising in odontogenic cysts: an insight in pathogenesis.

Purpose: To present a case series of primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma arising in odontogenic cysts and review the published data to understand the pathogenesis of the lesion.

Materials And Methods: The files of the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Government Dental College and Hospital (Jaipur, India) were reviewed, and 3 cases of primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma ex odontogenic cyst diagnosed from 2006 to 2011 were identified. The diagnostic inclusion criteria were the presence of a completely intraosseous lesion; the absence of ulceration of the oral mucosa, except when caused by other factors such as tooth extraction or trauma; and the absence of a distant primary tumor.
