Purpose: Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) frequently affects the temporomandibular joints and may cause dentofacial deformity and dysfunction. The adverse effects of JIA on dentofacial growth, morphology, and function may be due to erosion of the existing mandibular condyle(s), the inhibitory effect of the arthritis on the growing mandible, or both. No algorithm exists for management of JIA-induced skeletal and dental abnormalities; treatment varies widely.
Materials And Methods: On the basis of the available literature and expert opinion obtained by a consensus conference held by the Temporomandibular Joint Juvenile Arthritis (TMJAW) group-a multidisciplinary and multinational clinical and research network dedicated to the diagnosis and management of temporomandibular joint arthritis caused by JIA-we present an algorithm to be used as a conceptual framework for management of dentofacial deformity resulting from JIA.
Results: An algorithm for management of dentofacial deformity resulting from JIA is presented and exemplified by 5 clinical cases.
Conclusions: A standardized algorithm will improve clinical decision making and facilitate outcome research by allowing valid comparisons between published research studies. We emphasize the importance of multidisciplinary evaluation, management, and long-term follow-up.

Development of a 3D cephalometric index to grade severity of dentofacial deformity in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis.
Sci Rep

This investigation aimed to develop a radiographic 3D cephalometric index to grade severity of dentofacial deformity in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), and to perform a validation against expert evaluations. Data were collected from a population-based Nordic JIA cohort of 240 patients that received a cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan approximately 17 years after onset of JIA. The cohort was randomized into two groups: A baseline group for establishing the index (n = 210) and a test group (n = 30).

This study is intended to review the cephalometric data pertaining to the diverse Indian populace through a systematic literature survey. To conduct a systematic review of literature, an electronic search was done on Medline, Embase, and Central databases. The available data were categorized based on the existing five geographic locations of the country (north, south, east, west, and central India) and analyzed.

Introduction: Panoramic radiographs are widely used for age estimation in clinical and forensic domains. Conventionally, age estimation uses humans assessing tooth development and deducing the expected age from that. Deep learning may improve or substitute this traditional approach and allow age estimation at scale in routine settings.
