INTRODUCTION The proximity of the roots of the posterior maxillary teeth to the maxillary sinus is a constant challenge to the dental practitioner. Because the majority of studies have assessed the relationship regarding molars, the present study focused on premolars. METHODS Cone-beam computed tomographic images of 192 patients were reconstructed in sagittal, coronal, and axial planes to qua...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of the present study was to explore the maxillary sinus anatomy, its variations and volume in patients with a need for maxillary implant placement. MATERIAL AND METHODS Maxillary sinus data of 101 consecutive patients who underwent spiral computed tomography (CT) scans for preoperative implant planning in the maxilla at the Department of Periodontology, University Hospi...

In clinical settings, impacted teeth are a typical occurrence. Because of their proximity to the nasal and oral cavity, have potential create more severe catastrophic difficulties, such as formation dentigerous cysts other disorders. The goal this report is look into fundamentals treating maxillary premolars that been palatally impacted. A case right second premolar presented in report.

Ectopic eruption is a concept including those clinical cases in which teeth show abnormal eruption pattern and erupt ectopically, in an incorrect position. This abnormality has been pointed out in the literature for the fi rst permanent molars, mainly the maxillary ones. There is no specifi c etiological factor for this abnormality in the fi rst permanent molar, but different factors are report...

A 40-year-old man suffered from a repeatedly recurrent desmoplastic ameloblastoma in the right maxillary anterior and premolar regions. During the first visit, the patient was provisionally histopathologically diagnosed with a developmental cyst, and it was confirmed to be unicystic ameloblastoma and resected. Four years later, the lesion recurred, and was diagnosed as a desmoplastic type of am...

Introduction: Knowledge of the presence of the alveolar antral artery in the lateral maxillary sinus wall is essential for surgeons who operate in this region. The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between alveolar antral artery diameter and lateral maxillary bony wall thickness in dentate patients.   Materials and Methods: Thirty five Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)...

PURPOSE Although intracoronal radiolucencies in radiographs of unerupted teeth have been reported for several decades, the prevalence of this condition remains unknown. This study determined the prevalence and associated dental conditions of permanent teeth showing pre-eruptive dentin radiolucencies in bite-wing radiographs of school children attending two school dental therapy training centers...

Spin wave measurements have been carried out in ferromagnetic (F) La(1-x)(Sr,Ca)(x)MnO(3) with x(Sr) = 0.15, 0.175, 0.2, 0.3, and x(Ca) = 0.3. In all q directions, close to the zone boundary, the spin wave spectra consist of several energy levels, with the same values in the metallic and the x approximately 1/8 doping ranges. For x(Sr) = 0.15, the data are quantitatively interpreted in terms of...

Seven new fluorescent 2-R-naphtho[2,3-d]oxaphospholes (R-NOPs) (4a–g; R = tBu (a), Ad (b), C(6)H(5) (c), 4-MeC(6)H(4) (d), 4-ClC(6)H(4) (e), 4-BrC(6)H(4) (f ), 4-MeOC(6)H(4) (g)), have been synthesized by cyclocondensation reactions of benzimidoyl chlorides with 3-phosphino-2-naphthol (3). The compounds were characterized by multinuclear NMR, UV-vis, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Compounds 4a–...
