Expasyl is a hemostatic paste used for gingival retraction that provides effective retraction with minimal pressure, reducing risk of tissue damage and increasing patient comfort compared to traditional retraction cords. It is extruded directly into the sulcus rather than pressed in, retracting tissue gently. Expasyl controls bleeding and provides a clean, dry field for impressions. Studies show it is highly effective at retraction and hemostasis with minimal trauma to soft tissues.

Dr. Ahmed M. Adawy, Professor Emeritus, Dep. Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. Former Dean, Faculty of Dental Medicine, Al-Azhar University. Ameloblastoma is benign slow-growing but locally invasive neoplasm of odontogenic origin. In 2005, the WHO has classified ameloblastomas into multi cystic, unicystic and peripheral subtypes. The clinical picture, radiographic findings and differential diagnosis are presented. Treatment of ameloblastomas is primarily surgical. There has been some debate regarding the most appropriate method for removing. These range from conservative to radical modes. Some authors advocate conservative approach and thought that ameloblastoma are essentially benign in nature and should be treated as such. However, this conservative approach result in recurrence rates of 55% to 90%of the cases. Currently, the standard of care for ameloblastoma includes en bloc resection with 1-2 combine margin and immediate bone reconstruction. Despite the medical nature of a surgical resection, it may actually involve less morbidity than extensive hard and soft tissue resection with associated extensive morbidity that may be warranted in case of recurrence following inadequate primary treatment.
Fabrication of Complete Dentures for A Patient with Resorbed Mandibular Anter...QUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: The loose and unstable lower complete denture is one of the most common problems faced by denture patients with highly resorbed ridge. The management of such highly resorbed ridges has always posed a difficulty to the prosthodontist.Obtaining consistent mandibular denture stability has longbeen a challenge for dental profession. The simplest approach often is to extend the denture base adequately for proper use of all available tisues.To achieve this goal impression of the resorbed mandibular ridge is very important. The objective is to develop a physiologic impression with maximum support of both hard and soft tissues.In such cases, an innovative technique of impressionmaking by using a close fitting tray and anelastomeric impression material tomake a proper impression to achieve maximum retentionand stability.This article describes an impression technique used for highly resorbed mandibular ridge using an all green impression technique, to gain maximum retention andstability
