Background: A simple bone cyst (SBC) is a non-neoplastic intraosseous cavity without an epithelial lining. It is usually asymptomatic and has little effect on the surrounding structures. SBC associated with root resorption of the involved tooth has seldom been reported.
Case Presentation: A 63-year-old Korean woman was referred to our hospital for a cystic lesion of the left mandibular second molar. Radiographic examination revealed a well-demarcated radiolucent lesion with severe root resorption in the involved tooth. The tooth was extracted, and surgical exploration revealed an empty cavity with only a small amount of fibrous connective tissue. Histological examination revealed external root resorption in the left mandibular second molar and a cystic structure consisting of fibrous collagenous tissue devoid of an epithelial lining.
Conclusions: This case of SBC associated with root resorption offers valuable insight into the diagnostic process for radiolucent lesions accompanied by root resorption.

Chondroblastic Osteosarcoma in an Adolescent: Are Conventional Biopsy Techniques Just Scratching the Surface?
Indian J Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg

Institute of Medical Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh India.
Osteosarcoma, although the most common malignant bone tumor in long bones, represents only 5-8% of head and neck tumors, making it uncommon for clinicians. Conventional biopsy techniques can complicate diagnosis due to varying tissue representation in surrounding areas. This article discusses a case involving a 19-year-old female who presented with facial swelling and a rapidly growing intraoral mass.

Aims: Extended orthodontic treatment leads to a number of negative outcomes, including a higher chance of dental cavities, gingival recession, open gingival embrasure gaps, and root resorption. It has been stated that micro osteoperforations (MOPs) use the biology of the body to speed up tooth movement. Our objective was to investigate how MOPs with micro implants affected the tooth movement rate.

This report highlights a rare occurrence of inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) injury resulting from calcium hydroxide extrusion during endodontic treatment. The patient experienced severe pain and paresthesia in the lower right lip following root canal treatment due to the inadvertent overflow of calcium hydroxide into the IAN canal. No surgical intervention was performed, and the patient received non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics and vitamin B complex injections to manage the symptoms.

Background: During the process of intruding the mandibular anterior teeth (MAT) with clear aligners (CA), the teeth are susceptible to undesigned buccal and lingual inclinations, leading to complications such as excessive alveolar bone resorption and root exposure that significantly compromise the treatment outcome. Therefore, it is imperative to investigate the underlying causes and develop effective coping strategies.
Methods: We first statistically analyzed the clinical issues, then used FEA to explore their underlying mechanisms to guide the design of attachments in clinical practice.
Three-dimensional partitioning and quantification of orthodontic root resorption via automatic root extraction from cone-beam computed tomography.
BMC Oral Health

College of Stomatology, Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, China.
Background: External root resorption (ERR) during orthodontic treatment is a common concern, and accurate quantification is crucial for assessing outcomes and minimizing long-term complications. This study aims to quantify ERR using automated root extraction from cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), combined with a novel root partitioning method and enhanced through the integration of intraoral scans for improved accuracy.
Methods: Thirty-six patients with malocclusion were included and divided into two groups.
