OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the influence of magnification and superimposition of structures on CBCT-generated lateral cephalometric radiographs (LCR) using different segments of the cranium. METHODS CBCT scans of 10 patients were selected. Four LCR were generated using Dolphin Imaging(r) software: full-face, right side, left side and center of the head. A total of 40 im...

This report involves two cases of extreme dilaceration of the permanent mandibular incisor teeth. A history of trauma sustained to the primary dentition was elicited in each case. Although a relatively rare condition, several reports have been made regarding dilacerated maxillary incisor teeth. Very few case reports could be found involving dilacerated mandibular teeth.

Abstract This study evaluated the dental displacement in dentures included different flasks and processed by Australian cycle modified or microwave. Metal pins were placed on teeth as reference for measurements: a) Incisal edge of maxillary mandibular central incisors, buccal cusp vestibular first premolars, mesiobuccal cusps second molars; b) Incisor to incisor, premolar molar molar; c) Left i...

Luxational injuries to the permanent anterior teeth in children are a cause of concern. Palatal luxation of maxillary left central incisor with bleeding of gingival sulcus and fracture of maxillary right central incisor involving enamel and dentine in a 9-year- old girl is presented. The dental occlusion was deranged due to the luxation. Management consisted of repositioning of the luxated toot...

Dilaceration is a comparatively uncommon dental deformity generally characterized by an angulation between crown and root, and consequently causing non-eruption of the tooth. Dilaceration generally occurs following trauma to the apices of deciduous dentition, which lies close to the permanent tooth buds. As a result, surgical extraction used to be the first choice when making the treatment plan...

The purpose of this case report is to describe the successful endodontic treatment and surgical management of a unesthetic geminated permanent maxillary lateral incisor tooth. Geminated maxillary incisor clinically revealed bifid crown with coronal groove and intraoral periapical radiograph showing radiolucent lesion with sclerotic border. orthograde root canal treatment was performed. surgery ...

Traumatic injuries to an immature permanent tooth may result in cessation of dentin deposition and root maturation. Endodontic treatment is often complicated in premature tooth with an uncertain prognosis. This article describes successful treatment of two traumatized maxillary central incisors with complicated crown fracture three months after trauma. The radiographic examination showed immatu...

Surgical derotation is a method of placing a rotated tooth in normal alignment in a dental arch; surgically, immediately and permanently. It is a potentially convenient and cost-effective treatment modality as compared to conventional orthodontic procedure for rotated maxillary incisor with open apex. Here is a presentation of a severely rotated maxillary left permanent central incisor in a nin...
