The recognition and treatment of feline dental and oral lesions are important components in the successful management of feline health. Dental and oral lesions in cats may have a variety of presentations and treatment options. Feline dental and oral lesions include: periodontal disease, tooth resorptive lesions, fractured teeth, mandibular swelling, perialveolar osteitis, gingivostomatitis, fel...

The objective of this case report is to help clinicians identify bifid mandibular canals on panoramic radiographs and subsequently use the information in the modification of dental treatment planning. A 45-year old man was referred to the service of Oral Diagnosis and Radiology. Routine panoramic radiography, suggested the presence of bilateral bifid mandibular canals (BMC). Mandibular computed...

BACKGROUND Mandibular displacement is a common complication of condylar fracture. In the mandibular displacement due to condylar fracture, it is difficult to restore both esthetics and function without using orthognathic surgery. CASE DESCRIPTION This clinical report described a full mouth rehabilitation in the patient with bilateral condylar fractures and displaced mandible using bilateral s...

background and aim: the inferior alveolar canal must be constantly examined as an important anatomical landmark in the study of lower jaw, particularly posterior body and mandibular ramus sites, in dental and surgical procedures. in the present study, the effect of two pathological lesions, ameloblastomas and keratocystic odontogenic tumour, on canal displacement were investigated. materials an...

a case of unusual root morphology is presented to demonstrate anatomic variations in mandibular second molars. the most common configuration of mandibular second molar is to have two roots with three root canals; however mandibular molars may have many different combinations. endodontic therapy was performed in a mandibular second molar with 3 separate roots 2 located mesially and one distally....

background: radiographic examination of tmj is indicated when there are clinical signs of pathological conditions, mainly bone changes that may influence the diagnosis and treatment planning. the purpose of this study was to evaluate and to compare the validity and diagnostic accuracy of uncorrected and corrected sagittal tomographic images in the detection of simulated mandibular condyle erosi...

AIM To highlight anatomical variation in the mandibular canine. SUMMARY Two clinical case reports are presented to illustrate anatomical variation in the human mandibular canine. Endodontic treatment may sometimes fail because morphological features of the tooth adversely affect the treatment procedures. Many investigators have reported the anatomical variations associated with mandibular can...

This is a rare case of amalgam allocation in an alveolar wound of an extracted third molar. During the extraction of a mandibular third molar to a 36-year-old woman, the adjacent mandibular second molar was broken. The dentist decided to put an amalgam filling to the mandibular second molar directly after the extraction and during the same appointment. The patient soon experienced an acute cont...

There is lot of anatomical variation in the mandibular canine. A clinical case report is presented to illustrate anatomical variation in the human mandibular canine. Endodontic treatment may sometimes fail because morphological features of the tooth adversely affect the treatment procedures. Many investigators have reported the anatomical variations associated with mandibular canines. Mandibula...

This study clarifies the internal structure of the mandibular condyle in dentulous and edentulous jaws; three-dimensional observation and morphological measurements were performed using micro-CT. The materials used in this study were 14 mandibular condyles each removed from the dentulous and edentulous cadavers. Internal structures of the mandibular condyle were morphologically analyzed in thre...
