Odontogenic keratocysts are odontogenic cysts of the jaw, usually the mandible. We present a recurrent case in the maxilla. Immunohistochemical staining is necessary to distinguish the entity from other cystic lesions of the jaw, and aggressive surgical management is required.

Prediction of the success of orthodontic treatment of impacted maxillary canines using panoramic radiography parameters: a retrospective cross-sectional study.
BMC Oral Health
December 2024
Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Orthodontics, Ondokuz Mayıs University, Atakum, Samsun, 55139, Turkey.
Background: This retrospective study aimed to investigate the relationships between the radiographic features of impacted maxillary canines (IMCs) and traction duration and the factors affecting treatment success.
Methods: Pre-treatment panoramic radiographs and patient records of 121 consecutive patients with IMCs were analyzed. The measurements included the angle of the IMC with the midline (α-angle), the horizontal position of the IMC relative to the adjacent teeth (S-Sector), the distance from the IMC to the occlusal plane (d-distance), the apex position of the IMC (A), and the vertical height of the IMC relative to the adjacent lateral tooth (V).
Possible link between the preferential unilateral chewing side and eruptive guidance of the maxillary canine germ : Cross-sectional study on panoramic radiographs.

Paediatric Dentistry, Preclinical Dentistry Department, European University of Madrid, Madrid, Spain.
Aim: To determine whether unilateral preferent chewing (UPC) affects the position and angulation of the permanent maxillary canine germ on the preferred side.
Materials And Methods: In a retrospective cross-sectional study, medical records from children 7.91(± 0.
Morphometric Analysis of the Greater Palatine Foramina in the Bosnia and Herzegovina Population.
Acta Med Acad
December 2024
Department of Anatomy, Medical Faculty, University in Sarajevo, Čekaluša 90, 71 000 Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Objective: The goal of this research was to examine the morphological characteristics and exact anatomical positioning of the greater palatine foramen (GPF), with reference to nearby anatomical landmarks.
Material And Method: The research was performed on dry human skulls belonging to the Bosnian and Herzegovina population, using digital vernier calipers. The study began by noting the GPF's position relative to the maxillary molars, then measuring its distance from the median palatine suture (MPS), the incisive fossa (IF), the posterior border of the hard palate (PBHP), and the posterior nasal spine (PNS).
Acceptable esthetic limits for maxillary dental midline shift and mandibular asymmetry: Who notices what and how much?

Department of Orthodontics, Sivas Cumhuriyet University Faculty of Dentistry, Sivas, Turkey. Electronic address:
Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate maxillary dental midline shifts and mandibular asymmetries created in different amounts and directions on photographs taken from 7 different angles by different groups and to determine acceptable esthetic limits.
Methods: Photographs of a female model in a social smile position were taken from 7 different angles (0° [frontal], 15°, 30°, and 45° on the right and left sides) and digitally modified for maxillary dental and mandibular midline deviations at specified degrees using Adobe Photoshop. To enable participants to evaluate the photographs sequentially, the photographs were transformed into videos using Adobe Premiere Pro software.
Impacted supernumerary tooth in the horizontal plate of palatine bone: a rare case report.
BMC Oral Health
December 2024
Nepalese Army Institute of Health Sciences, College of Medicine, Kathmandu, Nepal.
Background: Supernumerary teeth, defined as extra teeth beyond the normal series of dentition, can appear anywhere in the dental arch. They may present as solitary or multiple, unilateral or bilateral, and can be either erupted or impacted. Rarely, supernumerary teeth are found in ectopic locations outside the dental arches, such as the nasal cavity, inferior nasal conchae, maxillary sinus, ethmoid sinus, or skull.
