Impacted maxillary permanent central incisor is not a frequently reported case in our dental practice. Dilaceration is one of the causes of failure of eruption of permanent maxillary incisor. It is a developmental anomaly of the form of a tooth that commonly occurs in permanent incisors .We report a case of a 14-year-old boy with an impacted central incisor in the maxillary region managed at Dr.H.Gordon Roberts's hospital, Meghalaya, India. The tooth was completely upside down with the crown facing towards the nasal floor and the root towards the alveolar process with severe dilaceration. Surgical removal of the impacted central incisor was performed under local anesthesia without disturbing the floor of the nose.

Dentoalveolar alterations after interventions to relieve mouth breathing : Systematic review and meta-analysis.
J Orofac Orthop
January 2025
Department of Orthodontics, School of Dentistry, Universidade Federal Fluminense, Rua Mário Santos Braga 30, room 214, ZC 24040-110, Niterói (RJ), Brazil.
Background: Mouth breathing is related to morphological and functional alterations in growing individuals. Understanding early events that can lead to these changes can prevent or decrease the need for orthodontic treatment.
Objective: The goal was to assess the prognosis for dental alterations evidenced by changes in the incisor inclination and arch width after surgical intervention to normalize the mode of breathing in growing patients.
Deproteinized Bovine Bone Mineral With Collagen for Anterior Maxillary Ridge Augmentation: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Clin Implant Dent Relat Res

Department of Implantology, The Affiliated Hospital of Stomatology, School of Stomatology, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou, China.
Objectives: This study aimed to assess the effects of deproteinized bovine bone mineral with collagen (DBBMC) combined with deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) on facial alveolar bone augmentation in the anterior maxillary region.
Materials And Methods: Patients receiving dental implant placement with simultaneous lateral bone augmentation using DBBM (control group) or DBBMC combined with DBBM (test group) were included in the study. The radiographic assessment of facial alveolar bone, such as facial horizontal bone thickness (FHBT), facial vertical bone level (FVBL), and square of facial bone (SFB), was taken by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Prozostrodontia is a clade of probainognathian cynodonts that exhibit several morphological innovations later inherited by mammals. The earliest representatives of this group have been found in the Upper Triassic deposits of southern Brazil. In this study, we report the discovery of a probainognathian cynodont from the Buriol site (São João do Polêsine, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil), Hyperodapedon Assemblage Zone (Late Triassic).

Purpose: The study aimed to measure the distance from the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) to the alveolar bone crest on both the buccal and lingual sides of the anterior mandibular teeth utilizing cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Materials And Methods: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was utilized to measure the distance between CEJ and the alveolar bone crest on both the buccal and lingual sides of the mandible's anterior teeth.
Results: The mean of the distance on buccal side for the central, lateral, and canine teeth were (1.
