Management of posttraumatic malocclusion caused by condylar process fractureDr. SHEETAL KAPSE
This study evaluated the treatment of 21 patients with post-traumatic malocclusions caused by condylar process fractures. For asymmetric malocclusions from unilateral fractures (n=15), patients underwent unilateral or bilateral mandibular ramus osteotomies. For anterior open bites from bilateral fractures (n=6), patients underwent either Le Fort I osteotomies (n=5) or bilateral ramus osteotomies (n=1). All patients had stable dental and skeletal results after 1+ years except one treated with bilateral ramus osteotomies. The authors conclude that osteotomies of the affected jaw are effective for treating post-traumatic malocclusions from condylar fractures.
Modern Treatment for Congenitally Missing Teeth : A Multidisciplinary Appro...Abu-Hussein Muhamad
The maxillary lateral incisor is the second most common congenitally absent tooth. There are several treatment options for replacing the missing maxillary lateral incisor, including canine substitution, tooth-supported restoration, or single-tooth implant. Dental implants are an appropriate treatment option for replacing missing maxillary lateral incisor teeth in adolescents when their dental and skeletal development is complete. This case report presents the treatment of a patient with congenitally missing maxillary lateral incisors using dental implants. Finally, the importance of interdisciplinary team treatment planning is emphasized as a requirement for achieving optimal final esthetics
ORTHODONTIC CORRECTION OF OCCLUSAL PLANE CANTING MaherFouda1
This document summarizes the orthodontic treatment of a 22-year-old patient with a canted occlusal plane, facial asymmetry, and mandibular prognathism. Miniscrews were implanted to intrude extruded teeth and correct the cant. After decompensation with elastics, the patient underwent bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy and genioplasty. Post-treatment, the patient's occlusion, facial asymmetry, and cant were significantly improved, though a two-jaw approach may have achieved better results. Miniscrews were effective for intrusion but require careful placement between roots to avoid complications.
Fabrication of functional complete dentures for edentulous patients who have undergone hemimandibulectomy is a very arduous and demanding endeavor.
The most challenging situation encountered during this procedure is the deviation of the mandible to the resected side. The deviation of the mandible to the resected side is directly proportional to the loss of tissues in the area hemi-mandibulectomy has been performed.
In cases with Cantor and Curtis classes II, III, IV, and V, guide flange prosthesis would be a treatment modality. For guide flange prosthesis to be effective, the sufficient number of posterior teeth that are periodontally sound should be present in the opposite arch.
In patients where reconstruction is not done after resection of the mandible, scar tissue formation occurs over a period of time that stiffens the tissues and worsens prosthetic rehabilitation, leading to compromised treatment planning.

Background: A 27 year old female patient presented with the chief complaint of pain and mobility in mandibular anterior teeth. An extremely shallow vestibule with less width of attached gingiva was observed with marginal gingival recession in 31, 32 and 41. Secondary trauma from occlusion was observed clinically with respect to 31. Methods: After adequate oral prophylaxis, the trauma from occlusion on 31 was relieved by selective grinding. The mobile mandibular anterior teeth were splinted with a temporary splint material (26 gauge stainless steel wire). The mandibular labial vestibule was extended using the lip switch procedure or the Edlan-Mejchar technique. Results: The procedure yielded a considerable gain in the width of the attached gingiva, which maintained itself even 9 months after the surgical procedure. Mobility was reduced with complete resolution of injury to the supporting tissues leading to improved function of the mandibular anterior teeth. Conclusion: Patients presenting with secondary trauma from occlusion and a shallow vestibule, treatment options such as oral prophylaxis, selective grinding, splinting combined with Edlan-Mejchar technique leads to complete resolution of mobility along with maintenance of the width of the attached gingival for a considerable period of time.

Orthognathic surgery involves correcting musculoskeletal, dento-osseous, and soft tissue deformities of the jaws and associated structures through a combination of orthodontics and oral and maxillofacial surgery. It is best performed after growth is complete to avoid potential need for resurgery. There are several classifications of orthognathic surgeries including maxillary, mandibular, and combined surgeries. Maxillary surgeries involve osteotomies of different segments of the maxilla like the anterior segment or total maxilla. Mandibular surgeries involve osteotomies like ramus, body, or genioplasty osteotomies.

1. This case report describes the extraction treatment of a 13-year-old female patient with a Class II division 2 malocclusion, mandibular posterior discrepancy, and deep bite.
2. The treatment plan involved extracting the maxillary right lateral incisor and mandibular second premolars, and using a lip bumper and utility arch to correct the deep bite and achieve an ideal overbite and Class I molar relationship.
3. After 35 months of active treatment, the patient's malocclusion was successfully corrected with good occlusal interdigitation and an improved facial profile, and the results were stable after 3 years of retention.
Treatment of Endodontic –Periodontic lesion with combination therapy: PRF and...iosrjce
This document describes a case study of a patient with a primary endodontic and secondary periodontic lesion treated with a combination of platelet rich fibrin (PRF) and demineralized freeze dried bone allograft (DFDBA). The patient presented with bleeding gums and a 15mm periodontal pocket around tooth #46. Endodontic treatment was performed initially, followed by regenerative periodontal surgery 3 months later using DFDBA bone graft material and a PRF membrane. Follow up at 6 months found reduced pocket depth and increased bone fill on radiographs, indicating the combination therapy was effective at treating the combined endo-perio lesion.
Orthodontics has been developing greatly in achieving the desired results both clinically and technically.
Today, it is still very challenging to reduce the duration of orthodontic treatments.
It is one of the common deterents that the orthodontist faces and it causes irritation among adults plus increasing risks of caries, gingival recession, and root resorption.
A number of attempts have been made to create different approaches both preclinically and clinically in order to achieve quicker results, but still there are a lot of uncertainties and unanswered questions towards most of these techniques.
Orthognathic surgery is used to correct skeletal defects of the jaw and face. It involves cutting and repositioning the jaws, and is often done together with other procedures like rhinoplasty or genioplasty. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia, with the jaws wired together during the procedure and often released before the patient wakes. Patients then follow a liquid diet initially and have frequent checkups as they recover over weeks or months.
This document describes a case study of using titanium screw anchorage to successfully treat a 31-year-old female patient with a severe anterior open bite of 7 mm. Mini screws were implanted in the maxilla and mandible to provide anchorage for intruding the upper and lower first molars by 3 mm each over 19 months of active treatment. This led to a counterclockwise rotation of the mandible which corrected the open bite and improved her retrognathic facial profile. The results suggest titanium screws are useful for intruding molars and treating anterior open bites in adult patients.
The document discusses the surgery first approach (SFOA) for orthognathic surgery. It provides historical context for SFOA and compares it to the conventional approach. It outlines the challenges with conventional surgery, indications and contraindications for SFOA, and the key steps involved - including preoperative procedures like bonding timing, archwires, and splints as well as virtual surgical planning. The document emphasizes that SFOA aims to reduce treatment time compared to conventional approaches.

This case report describes the successful management of a mandibular molar with lingual and furcal perforations complicated by formocresol-induced osteo-gingival necrosis, which was treated using a staged approach involving resorbable demineralized bone matrix and mineral trioxide aggregate. Three-year follow-up demonstrated resolution of the osseous defect and a healthy periodontium, highlighting the effectiveness of this approach.
The document discusses treatment options for congenitally missing maxillary lateral incisors, including canine substitution, single-tooth implants, and tooth-supported restorations. It provides details on the benefits and drawbacks of each approach. Space closure through canine substitution is presented as having the advantage of accomplishing treatment in one phase and producing permanent results independent of residual growth. However, achieving high esthetic standards requires restorative work on canines and premolars. A six-step clinical procedure is outlined to close spaces and perform restorations for an optimal esthetic outcome. Risks of biological complications with the implant approach over time are also noted.
This document describes the orthodontic treatment of a 31-year-old female patient with a gummy smile. To correct the gummy smile, the orthodontist intruded the entire maxillary dentition rather than just the anterior teeth. A midpalatal absolute anchorage system and modified lingual arch were used to achieve posterosuperior movement of the maxillary dentition over 18 months. This corrected the gummy smile and crowding. Follow-up after 21 months showed the results were stable despite the patient not wearing a maxillary retainer as prescribed.
The mandibular second premolar is one of the most frequently impacted teeth. The recommended treatment is to extract the second primary molar with or without removing the bone along the eruption path, to uncover the tooth surgically and move it into the arch by orthodontic treatment.
The purpose of this article is to review the principles of case management of soft tissue impacted second premolars mandibular and to illustrate their potential to respond well to the treatment. Although the scope of treatment may depend on a varying range of factors, this case report demonstrates the inherent potential for good treatment outcome in cases of soft tissue impactions
The document describes a non-bone breaking alternative technique called syndesmosis for correcting hallux valgus, commonly known as bunions, compared to the standard osteotomy procedure. The syndesmosis technique involves repositioning the first metatarsal using sutures to induce a biological bridge for permanent correction, avoiding bone cutting or fusing. The surgeon, Dr. Wu, has performed over 1400 of these procedures with impressive outcomes including natural joint motion, reduced lesser toe deformities and plantar calluses without additional surgery. The technique challenges the view of osteotomy as the "gold standard" for bunion surgery.

This document discusses the classification, etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of infrabony pockets. It defines infrabony pockets as pathological pockets where the base is apical to the alveolar crest. Infrabony pockets are classified based on their morphology and the number of remaining osseous walls. The etiology is often related to factors like tooth anatomy, position, occlusal trauma, and subgingival plaque. Diagnosis involves radiographs and probing to map the pocket. Treatment aims to eliminate signs and symptoms by addressing the etiology, scaling, curettage, and sometimes splinting mobile teeth.
This document discusses various topics related to preventive orthodontics including:
- Definition of preventive orthodontics as actions taken to preserve normal occlusion and prevention of potential interference with occlusal development.
- Importance of parental education on proper nutrition, oral hygiene and care from an early age to support healthy development.
- Management of occlusal relationship problems like posterior and anterior crossbites through techniques like equilibration, expansion appliances, and unilateral repositioning.
- Treatment of oral habits causing open bites using reminder therapy and appliances.
- Management of eruption problems such as over-retained primary teeth, supernumerary teeth, and delayed or ectopic eruption
orthodontic management of Idiopathic condylar resorption part 2MaherFouda2
This document summarizes the management of idiopathic condylar resorption through several case studies and articles. It finds that orthodontic treatment is contraindicated during active idiopathic condylar resorption but can be used once the condition is in remission. For severe cases, orthognathic surgery may be needed but there is a risk of relapse, especially in women. Miniscrew-assisted camouflage treatment helped one patient by retracting teeth and inducing counterclockwise mandibular rotation to improve her lip incompetence and profile.
This document discusses various treatment approaches for idiopathic condylar resorption (ICR), including:
1) Orthodontic treatment is contraindicated during active ICR due to risk of accelerating resorption or litigation.
2) Surgical options like orthognathic surgery place demands on compromised TMJs that may lead to relapse.
3) Combining pre- and post-operative medical management with anti-inflammatory drugs and supplements with orthognathic surgery may help control resorption.
4) Total alloplastic TMJ replacement avoids relying on compromised TMJ tissues, providing an option when other treatments aren't viable.
This document describes a case of a patient with microstomia (reduced oral aperture) due to extensive post-surgical facial scarring. Standard impression techniques could not be used due to the small mouth opening. The dentists innovatively used impression compound on an articulator bite fork to create a preliminary impression, allowing for complete denture construction. The patient was ultimately satisfied with the functional and aesthetic outcome, though she continues to experience recurring skin cancers. The technique of using a bite fork with compound is recommended for similar microstomia cases where small stock trays do not fit.

This particular slides consist of- what is Pneumothorax,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is a summary of Pneumothorax:
Pneumothorax, also known as a collapsed lung, is a condition that occurs when air leaks into the space between the lung and chest wall. This air buildup puts pressure on the lung, preventing it from expanding fully when you breathe. A pneumothorax can cause a complete or partial collapse of the lung.
Sectional dentures for microstomia patients.pptxSatvikaPrasad
Microstomia, characterized by an abnormally small oral aperture, presents significant challenges in prosthodontic treatment, including limited access for examination, difficulties in impression making, and challenges with prosthesis insertion and removal. To manage these issues, customized impression techniques using sectional trays and elastomeric materials are employed. Prostheses may be designed in segments or with flexible materials to facilitate handling. Minimally invasive procedures and the use of digital technologies can enhance patient comfort. Education and training for patients on prosthesis care and maintenance are crucial for compliance. Regular follow-up and a multidisciplinary approach, involving collaboration with other specialists, ensure comprehensive care and improved quality of life for microstomia patients.

End-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) is the level of carbon dioxide that is released at the end of an exhaled breath. ETCO2 levels reflect the adequacy with which carbon dioxide (CO2) is carried in the blood back to the lungs and exhaled.
Non-invasive methods for ETCO2 measurement include capnometry and capnography. Capnometry provides a numerical value for ETCO2. In contrast, capnography delivers a more comprehensive measurement that is displayed in both graphical (waveform) and numerical form.
Sidestream devices can monitor both intubated and non-intubated patients, while mainstream devices are most often limited to intubated patients.

neighboring teeth, and ankylosis
was confirmed.

From the treatment provided in this clinical case, it can
be concluded that surgical luxation associated with

be the most opportune therapy in the treatment of some
ankylosed mandibular molars.
