Intraoperative Assessment of Margin Accuracy in Patients Diagnosed With Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma in a Tertiary Hospital of Jharkhand: Frozen Section Versus Histopathology.

Background The incidence of head and neck carcinoma is increasing. The use of an intraoperative frozen section plays a vital role in the evaluation of margin status in patients undergoing surgery for oral squamous cell carcinoma. A negative margin is not only an indication of successful surgery but also decreases the recurrence of disease and improves the overall survival of patients.

A Comparative Study to Evaluate the Linear Dimensional Change and Compression Resistance of Four Elastomeric Interocclusal Recording Materials: An Study.

Unlabelled: The transfer of interocclusal data from the patient's mouth to articulators utilizing various types of recording media is necessary for the production of dental prostheses. Occlusal errors in the final prosthesis result from any discrepancies in these interocclusal records.

Materials And Methods: The purpose of this study was to assess the linear dimensional changes in the four elastomeric interocclusal recording materials as well as the material's resistance to compression during the cast mounting on the articulator.

Efficacy of implantoplasty in management of peri-implantitis: A systematic review.

Aim: Peri-implantitis causes progressive loss of the supporting bony structure around the dental implant. Implantoplasty mechanically removes contaminated threads to achieve smoother implant surface thus reducing the bacterial load enabling fibroblastic growth to stimulate the healing effect. This Systematic review is done to appraise the outcome of implantoplasty on surface quality of Implant (roughness), biocompatibility of implants in peri-implantitis cases.

Hypocalcemic cardiomyopathy: a rare presenting manifestation of hypoparathyroidism.

Hypoparathyroidism patients present with features of hypocalcemia like carpopedal spasm, numbness and paresthesias but hypocalcemic cardiomyopathy leading to congestive heart failure (CHF) is a rare presentation. We present here a case of 55-year-old Asian man who was a known case of dilated cardiomyopathy for 6 months, presented with the chief complaints of shortness of breath on exertion and decreased urine output. On general physical examination, features suggestive of CHF were seen.

Unilateral renal artery stenosis presenting as acute flaccid paralysis: a rare presentation.

Renovascular hypertension is one of the common causes of secondary hypertension. Here we report a case of patient of renal artery stenosis presenting to the emergency department as a case of acute flaccid paralysis. Renal artery stenosis has been associated with hypokalaemia, but rarely reported to be symptomatic.

An in vitro study of the bond strength of five adhesives used for vinyl polysiloxane impression materials and tray materials.

Although stock trays often provide mechanical retention for elastomeric impression materials, manufacturers typically recommend the use of an adhesive, whether a stock or custom tray is used. The mention of the bond strength on the adhesive packaging is not available, therefore the clinician has no idea whatsoever of the ideal adhesive. The aim of this study was to evaluate the bond strength of three vinyl polysiloxane (VPS) materials, one with a poly(methyl methacrylate) autopolymerizing (PMMA) specimen and another with a light-polymerizing tray material (VLC), using the adhesive recommended by the manufacturer of the impression material, and two universal adhesives.

Fabrication of an immediate surgical obturator for a patient with resection of the maxillary antrum and bony orbital floor.

An immediate surgical obturator is necessary for maxillectomy procedures to minimize functional disabilities in speech, swallowing, and egress of food and liquid into the surgical defect. Sometimes the extent of the tumor may be such that it may even require the removal of the maxillary sinus along with resection of the orbital floor. The resected orbital floor can be surgically reconstructed with autogenous soft and/or hard tissues or with alloplastic materials.

Implant supported prosthesis after ridge augmentation procedure by distraction osteogenesis for atrophic mandible.

Rehabilitation of deficient alveolar ridges has long been a challenge. The distraction osteogenesis procedure before placement of dental implants has solved the puzzle and its advantages over block grafting includes simultaneous expansion of soft tissue, high degree of dimensional stability, abbreviated overall treatment time, and no graft required. In this case report distraction osteogenesis of deficient anterior mandibular ridge was performed and then an implant supported fixed prosthesis was fabricated.

Prosthodontic rehabilitation of velopharyngeal disorders-a case series.

Acquired palatal defects results from cancer resection, whereas cleft palate is the main cause of congenital defects. Both these condition leads to impaired speech intelligibility, seepage of nasal secretions into the oral cavity and vice versa while difficulty in swallowing and hyper nasality is also eminent. In this case report three different technique for treating velopharyngeal disorders have been described.

Magnet retained intraoral-extra oral combination prosthesis: a case report.

Facial prosthesis is generally considered over surgical reconstruction to restore function and appearance in patients with facial defects that resulted from cancer resection. Retention of the prosthesis is challenging due to its size and weight. Retention can be achieved by using medical grade adhesives, resilient attachments, clips and osseointegrated implants.

Full-mouth rehabilitation of a patient with severe attrition using the Hobo twin-stage procedure.

Excessive occlusal wear can result in pulpal injury, occlusal disharmony, impaired function and aesthetic deformity. Loss of anterior guidance can result from severe wear of anterior teeth, which protects the posterior teeth during excursive movement. The collapse of posterior teeth also results in the loss of normal occlusal plane and the reduction of the vertical dimension.

Non-rigid connector: The wand to allay the stresses on abutment.

The use of rigid connectors in 5-unit fixed dental prosthesis with a pier abutment can result in failure of weaker retainer in the long run as the pier abutment acts as a fulcrum. Non-rigid connector placed on the distal aspect of pier seems to reduce potentially excess stress concentration on the pier abutment.
