Abstract Background A radicular cyst is an inflammatory of odontogenic nature, formed by cells Malassez in the periodontal ligament, which are stimulated and proliferate, following insults such as dental trauma. First stage treatment commonly orthograde root canal (RCT), followed apicectomy or extraction enucleation lesion +/- bone grafting replacement tooth. Presenting problem This case illust...

The purpose of this study was to investigate a case of calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) in which numerous calcifications were observed not only in the lining epithelium, but also in the cyst wall, using cytokeratins 13 (CK13), 19 (CK19), and core binding factor a-1 (cbfa-1) as primary antibodies. Cells of Malassez's epithelial rest were stained as controls. Cells of the epithelial nests in the...

Between 1990 and 1995, 214 implants were placed in 29 maxillae and mandibles of 22 patients following extraction of all residual teeth as a consequence of severe periodontal disease. All patients were discharged wearing immediate dentures. The implants were analyzed with regard to the number per arch, location, length, and diameter. The 5-year cumulative survival rate was 98.5%. The mean number...

OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed highlight some clinical features present in patients whose maxillary lateral incisors are missing, and proposed more logical, rational and predictable solutions to inform decision making in rehabilitation procedures. METHODS Literature review and discussion. CONCLUSION Choosing the best possible treatment for congenital absence of maxillary lateral incisors...

Pulpa gigi dan jaringan periodontal berasal dari ectomesenchymal, keduanya memiliki hubungan secara anatomi fungsi. Terdapat jalur komunikasi (foramen apikal, kanal lateral aksesori, tubulus dentinal alur palato-gingiva) yang menghubungkan antara pulpa periodontal, sehingga jika terjadi suatu inflamasi pada salah satu tersebut maka dapat menyebabkan lain ikut merespon terhadap tersebut. Laporan...

Dento-alveolar traumas are one of the most frequent injuries to teeth, mainly affecting the upper incisors due to their exposed position in the dental arch. In such cases, esthetics, function and phonetics of anterior teeth may be compromised. Furthermore, when there is involvement of the biological width, there is often a poor prognosis. This case report describes the multidisciplinary approac...

Gartner’s cyst accounts for 11% of all vaginal cysts. It results from total or partial occlusion duct, the mesonephric duct remainder. is often located in anterior lateral wall vagina cervix to introitus, however it has exceptionally been described posterior location also.It typically small and asymptomatic occurs along walls vagina, following course duct. Rarely can be congenital., ,

Background: Periodontitis is primarily a dental plaque induced inflammatory disease, local factors that facilitate the accumulation of bacteria may contribute to the progression of the disease. Periodontal disease is not a single entity nor is there a single causative factor that elicits a consistent periodontal response. Dental abnormalities such as palatal grooves and cervical enamel projecti...
