In the current study incidence of food impaction between implant-supported fixed dental prostheses and adjacent teeth was determined factors that influence were identified. Seven hundred seventy-nine implant prosthetic crowns 879 sites from a pool 489 patients retrospectively studied. Food existed in 16.6% with restorations at follow-up evaluations. occurred more frequently on mesial aspect pro...

Mussels are commonly used in cooking around the world. The mussel shell breaks more easily than other shells, and the edge of the broken mussel shell is sharp. Impaction can ultimately cause erosion, perforation and fistula. Aside from these complications, the pain can be very intense. Therefore, it is essential to verify and remove the shell as soon as possible. In this report we describe the ...

Inverted third molar impaction is a rare occurrence. Very few cases have been reported in the literature till date. We report an interesting and a rare case of inverted maxillary third molar impaction in a 33 year old male patient. This case report would add to the academic literature and case series of inverted maxillary tooth impactions. How to cite this article: Togoo R A. Rare Occurrence of...

Impaction grafting has been widely promoted on the acetabular side by Schreurs et al,1 with associated bone grafting and a cemented cup. The objectives of impaction grafting are to: 1) transform segmental defects into cavitary defects, 2) obtain a full compaction of the graft, 3) achieve primary stability of the cup, which is anatomically located in the acetabulum, and 4) restore bone stock. Th...

Retromolar space has long been identified as a major factor in the aetiology of mandibular third molar impaction. The aims of this study were to compare mandibular third molar space between the different antero-posterior (A-P) skeletal patterns, between erupted and impacted third molars in the different A-P skeletal patterns, and to report on the status of third molar eruption/impaction among t...

introdouction: impacted and partially erupted third molars can cause various symptoms and pathologies. the aim of this study was to determine the association between commonly observed pathological conditions and the impaction depth of lower third molar teeth. materials and methods: in this retrospective study, 370 panoramic radiographs including 724 lower third molars were evaluated to assess s...
