Comment on "Near-Normalized Maxillomandibular Relationship and Upper Airway in Infants With Robin Sequence Treated With Stanford Orthodontic Airway Plate".
Cleft Palate Craniofac J

It's interesting to note that despite clinical improvements in upper airway dimensions, the maxillary, mandibular, and mandibular body lengths remained smaller than those of controls. This finding may represent an underlying neurocristopathy, which represents a deficiency in the population of neural crest cells available in the embryonic maxillary and mandibular processes de novo. Indeed, it is known that craniofacial dimensions in infants with malformations, such as cleft palate, are often smaller when compared to non-cleft counterparts.

Department of Orthodontics, Afyonkarahisar Health Sciences University Faculty of Dentistry, Afyonkarahisar, Turkey.
Background: To compare the effects of first premolar extraction, molar distalization, and non-extraction treatments on the angulation and vertical positions of maxillary second molars (MxM2s) and maxillary third molars (MxM3s). To our knowledge, this is the first study to compare the effects of three different treatment types on MxM3 simultaneously.
Methods: Initial (T0) and final (T1) panoramic radiographs of three different patient groups were analyzed: first premolar extraction group (n = 26 patients, 52 MxM2, 52 MxM3), molar distalization group (n = 20 patients, 40 MxM2, 40 MxM3), and non-extraction group (n = 31 patients, 62 MxM2, 62 MxM3).
Comparative evaluation of calretinin immunohistochemical expression in calcifying odontogenic cyst and ameloblastoma.
BMC Oral Health
January 2025
Oral Health Research Center, Health Research Institute, Babol University of Medical Sciences, Babol, Iran.
Background: Calretinin is a 29 kilodalton (KDa) calcium-binding protein that is expressed in normal and tumoral tissues. The expression of calretinin has been shown in the dental epithelium during odontogenesis and in different odontogenic cysts and tumors such as ameloblastoma. Since the epithelium of calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) is similar to ameloblastoma and in both lesions, an arrangement of loose cells similar to stellate reticulum is seen, we aimed to investigate the comparative expression of calretinin in COC and ameloblastoma.

Methicillin-resistant (MRSA) osteomyelitis of the maxilla is a rare condition in paediatric patients, with limited evidence available for optimal treatment protocols. We present the case of a paediatric patient in the early childhood age group with post-traumatic maxillary osteomyelitis caused by MRSA. The child developed facial swelling following trauma, and imaging revealed maxillary sinus wall thickening and bone erosions.

Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) and ameloblastoma (AM) are common jaw lesions with high bone-destructive potential and recurrence rates. Recent advancements in technology led to significant progress in understanding these conditions. Single-cell and spatial omics have improved insights into the tumor microenvironment and cellular heterogeneity in OKC and AM.
