For maxillary gingival carcinomas, especially those in the molar region, surgical resection is often performed beyond the maxillary tuberosity. Bleeding from the posterior superior alveolar or maxillary artery into the pterygoid process is difficult to stop during partial maxillary resection. Advances in catheterization and materials have enabled the embolization of various vessels. In this report, we describe two cases of maxillary gingival cancer in which preoperative endovascular arterial embolization prevented bleeding due to unexpected vascular injury, allowing for a safe surgery with minimal blood loss. This technique effectively avoids emergency hemostasis for unexpected bleeding when resecting gingival cancers in the maxillary molar region.

Pulp health and calcific healing of a complicated crown-root fracture with additional root fracture in a maxillary incisor: A case report.
World J Clin Cases

Background: Complicated crown-root fracture (CRF) involves severe injury to the crown, root, and pulp, and may be accompanied by multiple root fractures. The loss of a tooth has lifelong consequences for children and teenagers, but the maintenance of pulp health and the calcific healing of multiple root fractures are rarely reported in the literature.
Case Summary: This case reports healing of a permanent tooth with complicated crown-root and additional root fractures, in which pulp health was maintained.
Socket Sealing Using Free Gingival Grafts: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Post-extraction ridge resorption is an inevitable phenomenon that cannot be eliminated but is significantly reduced using additional surgical techniques known as socket preservation. They aim to create favorable conditions for implant placement and prosthetic restoration. This study aims to assess the effect of socket sealing (SS) with free gingival grafts on the vertical resorption of socket walls at the premolar and molar regions over 3 months.

Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is an aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), subdivided into endemic, sporadic, and immunodeficiency-associated forms. While jaw lesions are common in endemic BL, they are infrequent in sporadic cases, only rarely constituting the first manifestation of the disease. The aim of this study is to present a rare pediatric case of sporadic BL first manifesting as gingival swellings and tooth hypermobility and provide a review of all the published sporadic BL case reports as the first sign of disease.

Objective: The effect of different attachment positions on torque control during the labialization of maxillary lateral incisors with clear aligners was evaluated using finite element analysis.
Methods: Anatomical data acquired through cone-beam computed tomography, combined with the design of 0.625-mm-thick aligners and horizontal attachments, were integrated into the software.

Department of Medical Biochemistry, Gaziantep İslam Bilim ve Teknoloji University, Gaziantep, Türkiye.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate bone remodeling in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) during canine distalization in obese individuals and compare it to that in normal-weight individuals. Additionally, the orthodontic tooth movement rates of obese individuals were measured and compared with those of normal-weight individuals.
Methods: Thirty-six patients (18 obese and 18 normal-weight) aged 12-18 years who were candidates for maxillary first premolar extraction for Angle Class II malocclusion were included in the study.
