Multiple impacted teeth are quite often syndromically related, which could be hormonal or metabolic. It may be also due to infection, cyst, or trauma. A number of idiopathic multiple impacted teeth cases have been reported in the literature. In most of these situations, the impacted teeth are few in number. Here, we present a case with all mandibular teeth impacted. The number of reports in the literature of rehabilitation of such a clinical situation is very less. Impacted teeth can significantly complicate the rehabilitation of an otherwise straight forward case. When all teeth are impacted, the situation becomes even more complex. This case report illustrates prosthodontic rehabilitation of mandibular arch of a 24-year-old, asyndromic patient with implant-retained dentures following the surgical removal of impacted teeth. The objective of presenting this clinical report is primarily to increase the awareness, with which, the rehabilitation can be handled in a similar situation and also for the fact that such a report is a rarity.

Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the accuracy of three commercial and one open-source deep learning solutions for automatic tooth segmentation in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images from patients with multiple dental impactions.
- The analysis included 20 CBCT scans and compared expert-generated segmentations with those produced by the deep learning tools, utilizing metrics like Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) and normalized surface distance (NSD) for evaluation.
- Overall, while all methods demonstrated good efficiency with average NSD around 95%, two solutions (Diagnocat and DentalSegmentator) outperformed others, highlighting variability in accuracy depending on the complexity of the cases.

Background: Micro-RNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to play an important role during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) through the regulation of periodontal soft and hard tissue homeostasis and functions. The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of miRNAs on OTM and to evaluate possible predictors that influenced the overall OTM amount at a 3-month follow-up.
Methods: Through a split-mouth design, 21 healthy patients (mean age 13.
Bilateral inverse canine impaction: a case report.
J Med Case Rep
December 2024
School of Dentistry, China Medical University, Taichung, 404, Taiwan, Republic of China.
Background: Maxillary canine impaction can result in malocclusion, temporomandibular joint complications, and esthetic concerns, thus influencing craniofacial development. Although cases of impacted canines are not uncommon in clinical practice, the likelihood of simultaneous bilateral impaction is extremely low; very few reports have documented cases of bilaterally symmetrical, inversely impacted canines.
Case Presentation: This paper reports a rare case of maxillary canine impaction, a condition characterized by the abnormal eruption of teeth.
Evaluation of the effectiveness of panoramic radiography in impacted mandibular third molars on deep learning models developed with findings obtained with cone beam computed tomography.

Department of Oral, Dental and Maxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry, Ataturk University, Erzurum, 25240, Turkey.
Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the contact relationship and position of impacted mandibular third molar teeth (IMM) with the mandibular canal (MC) in panoramic radiography (PR) images using deep learning (DL) models trained with the help of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and DL to compare the performances of the architectures.
Methods: In this study, a total of 546 IMMs from 290 patients with CBCT and PR images were included. The performances of SqueezeNet, GoogLeNet, and Inception-v3 architectures in solving four problems on two different regions of interest (RoI) were evaluated.
