The authors had for aim to present a new minimally-invasive protocol to rehabilitate anterior maxillary edentulism due to an impacted tooth. The implant is placed without removing the impacted tooth, which intercepts the implant trajectory. The inclusion/exclusion criteria have not been defined yet but this protocol goes against the consensual concept that no implant surface other than implant-bone interface should be tolerated. New implant-tissue interfaces are created in addition to the usual one, but this does not seem to jeopardize the prognosis of implants. The risk analysis shows that there is a growing corpus of reliable clinical and histological data to support this unconventional protocol. The overall follow-up covers from a 6-month to an 8-year period. This protocol should be more broadly documented before it can be used routinely; nevertheless it suggests that some of the leading concepts in dental implantology may be revisited.

Aim: This study aims to evaluate the impact of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on pain, swelling, trismus, soft tissue healing and bone regeneration following mandibular third molar extraction.
Material And Methods: A systematic review was conducted from a period of January 2014 to June 2024 using PRISMA guidelines. The search strategy included databases such as Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, using key terms related to "PRF", "PRP", oral surgery, and third molars.

Tooth impaction and eruption failure present common challenges in pediatric dentistry. We report a case of a 10-year-old boy of Indian origin presenting with a missing left mandibular primary second molar and impacted first permanent molar. Radiographic examination revealed an ankylosed primary molar obstructing the path of an unerupted premolar.

Gardner syndrome is characterized by multiple intestinal polyps and extraintestinal lesions. We describe FDG PET/CT findings of the extraintestinal lesions in a patient with Gardner syndrome. FDG PET/CT showed 2 hypermetabolic desmoid tumors in the abdominal wall, sclerotic areas with multifocal activity in the maxilla and mandible, multiple osteomas in the bilateral parietal, left frontal, sphenoid and ethmoid bones, an impacted tooth in the right maxilla, and bone islands in the T2 and T5 vertebral bodies.

Background: It has been outlined that LTM (Lower third molar) extracted from patients in which grinding, cleaning, sterilization & demineralization prove to be highly effective as graft material for filling the alveolar socket of the very same patient. These investigations aim to assess the efficiency of ADDM (Autogenous Demineralized Dentin Matrix) graft in third molar extraction sockets.
Purpose: To check the effectiveness of ADDM as graft material in extraction socket by evaluating pain, swelling, trismus, PD (Probing Depth) and bone density.

Radicular cysts are rarely present in the primary dentition because of the distinct biological cycle of primary teeth. Cyst formation in children may cause bony expansion and resorption, malposition, delayed eruption, enamel defects, or damage to the developing permanent successors. Various treatment modalities for the management of radicular cysts have been reported in the literature.
