 Methodology: 207 Panoramic lateral cephalometric radiographs for patients above 20 years old with were recruited from orthodontic department clinics multiple universities Egypt traced using WebCeph ™ software. From cephalograms, thr...

Background: The radiographic method for deter­mining the estimated age has advantage of being non-invasive and orthopantomogram images are digitally processed. Canines have a strong corre­la­tion with chronological good resistance large pulp space. This study aimed to determine difference in estimates using Kvaal on right left mandibular canines. Subjects Method: There were 80 ortho­pantomogram...

OBJECTIVES The relationship between condylar asymmetry and handedness of the patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and patients with no signs or symptoms of TMD was investigated. The experimental group consisted of 25 patients aged 15 to 52 years who were referred for treatment of TMD. The mean age of this group was 26.24 years. The control group consisted of 25 patients aged 14 to 52...

Analysis of adjacent tooth resistance is essential in wisdom teeth extraction to prevent adjacent tooth trauma, however it lacks adequate attention nowadays. This study aims at suggesting special extraction methods based on adjacent tooth resistance analysis for prevention of adjacent tooth damage. In this study, 136 complicated mandibular third molars extracted using piezosurgery were reviewed...

BACKGROUND Robinow Syndrome is an extremely rare genetic disorder characterised by abnormalities in head, face and external genitalia. This disorder exists in dominant pattern with moderate symptoms and recessive pattern with more physical and skeletal abnormalities. It was first introduced by Menihard Robinow in 1969. It was related to chromosome 9q22 ROR2 gene related to bone and cartilage gr...

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), previously known as histio-cytosis X, is a rare idiopathic disorder of reticulo-endothelial system with abnormal proliferation of bone marrow derived Langerhans cells along with a variable number of leukocytes, such as eosinophils, neutrophils, lymphocytes and plasma cells.

A 17-year girl reported with painful right lower posterior teeth. Orthopantomogram showed unilocular radiolucency with scalloped non-sclerotic border at apical area of non-carious right mandibular molars and premolar. A provisional radiological diagnosis of ameloblastoma or odontogenic keratocyst was given. Histopathological examination revealed follicular areas of peripheral palisaded hyperchr...

Introduction: Orthopantomogram, a form of radiography that uses X-ray technology and is used in the diagnosis treatment planning various fields dentistry, has been found to be less expensive than other advanced imaging modalities such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Objective: The aim study was evaluate shape mandibular condylar process, coronoid sigmoid notch age groups a...
