Non-surgical periodontal therapy on serum and gingival crevicular fluid levels of omentin among periodontitis subjects with without Rheumatoid Arthritis is interest. Hence, 33 patients were selected divided into three groups: P group, RA group RA+P group. Periodontal parameters recorded; samples obtained to evaluate Omentin levels. All them showed non-surgical recalled after 6 weeks. The mean change in from T0 T1 was statistically significant but not for considering it as an anti-inflammatory marker.
Abstract Aim The aim of the present study was to determine association between presence specific periodontal pathogens, Toll‐like receptor‐4 ( TLR ‐4), and nuclear factor‐κB NF ‐κB) expression in placental tissues pre‐eclamptic women. Methods Antenatal screening performed 25 normotensive pregnant women Subgingival plaque tissue samples were collected from both groups screened for Porphyromonas gingivalis P. ), Tannerella forsythia , Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Prevotella intermedia...
The molar tooth of children and young adults is a common site for chronic hyperplastic pulpitis (pulp polyp). It rarely occurs in middle aged adults. This condition usually characterized by extensive involvement the pulp, dictating extraction involved tooth. Extraction permanent molars can lead to transient or malocclusion, aesthetic, phonetic functional problems. Here we report case pulp polyp mandibular first 33-year-old woman that grew into carious cavity. aim this describe diagnosis...
To assess the factors influencing awareness and practice of oral hygiene among local population Maduravoyal, Chennai, India.A cross-sectional questionnaire based study was conducted to understand choice products India. Data collected by means a self administered structured written in English validated through pilot survey. One thousand two hundred nine subjects, with an age range 15 70 years, who visited Department Periodontology, Meenakshi Ammal Dental College, Chennai were selected for...
The research was performed for the clinical and computerized tomography (CT) assessment of cortico-cancellous block allograft in reconstruction lateral alveolar ridge width deficiency prior to placement dental implants.Ten patients who had atrophic mandibular necessitating bone augmentation implant were randomly selected, corticocancellous allografts used augment deficiency. grafted site assessed clinically with CT preoperatively 6 months postoperatively. Surgical re-entry done after...
Gingival enlargement is a common manifestation of gingival diseases and it characterized by increase in size the gingiva. A 20-year-old male reported with primary complaint swelling lower front teeth region for past 7 month. Patient noticed to be small when started gradually increased attain present size. There was no contributing history bleeding or pain. Excision lesion done using electrocautery followed histopathological analysis. The challenge clinicians lies accurately diagnosing...
Alveolar bone loss following tooth extraction is common. Socket preservation techniques, involving grafts and membranes, aim to mitigate this loss. This study evaluates the efficacy of a composite graft (bioglass A-PRF gel) combined with collagen membranes for socket preservation, using Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) assess dimensional changes over 6 months post-extraction. A case series 5 patients requiring was included in study. Clinical parameters, including plaque index, gingival...
Abstract Drug-induced gingival enlargement (DIGE) is a common side effect of medications such as calcium channel blockers (e.g., nifedipine) and angiotensin II receptor telmisartan). This case involves 35-year-old female with 10-year history hypertension, managed combination nifedipine telmisartan, who developed significant overgrowth primarily affecting the anterior regions both maxillary mandibular gingiva. The caused esthetic concerns made oral hygiene maintenance difficult, leading to...
Gingival thickness plays a very important role in framing the protocol various dental treatments such as implantology, prosthodontics, and more importantly periodontics. During periodontal management, it is to consider gingival of patient, which can result satisfactory treatment outcomes. Smoking has its effect on periodontium, affecting physical functional properties. Assessing relation between these two entities becoming important. This clinical study sought compare gingiva systemically...
There are several microbiological and immunological aspects involved in the interactions between bacteria host during initiation progression of periodontal disease.Periodontal therapy lacks diagnostic capability to tailor predictable for individual.An understanding various mechanisms will enable us plan better therapeutic approach that aims eradication disease process.In future, we can improve host's ability thereby prevent colonization harmful pathogens.This review article provides current...
ABSTRACT Adenomatoid odontogenic tumour is a relatively uncommon first described by steensland in 1905. accounts for about 3-7% of all tumours, predominantly found young female patients, located more often maxilla associated with an unerupted permanent tooth. The misdiagnosed as cyst. AOT frequently resembles other lesions such dentigerous cysts or ameloblastomas. Therefore, it should be distinguished from the common origin routine dental examinations. We present rare case report 59-year-old...
Iatrogenic trauma though not serious is very common in dental practice. Orthodontic treatment can inflict such injuries as they are prolonged over a long period of time. Ill-fabricated orthodontic appliances, wires and brackets, or the patients' habits application constant pressure appliance traumatize adjacent oral soft tissues. In rare cases, these appliances get embedded into mucosa gingival This case report describes one iatrogenic to palatal due entrapment tongue spike its surgical management.
Desmoplastic fibroma (DF) is a rare, benign fibrous tumor of the bone which locally aggressive. forms 0.3% osseous tumors, most commonly occurs in tibia, scapula, and femur. Most affected site head neck region Mandible. causes destruction has high tendency for local recurrence. In this case report, we present desmoplastic mandible 5 year old female patient with imaging, histopathology, treatment discussion about prognosis.
<b>Background</b><b>:</b><b> </b>Talon cusp is a rare anomaly projecting from the dento-enamel junction to variable distance towards incisal edge of an anterior tooth. Hyperactivity enamel organ during morphodifferentiation has been accredited its formation. When it occurs, effects are mainly aesthetic and functional so early detection treatment essential in management avoid complications. <b>Case presentation</b><b>:</b><b> </b>An unusual case talon on lingual aspect mandibular central...
Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to assess and correlate the serum GCF levels omentin with periodontal status rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients without periodontitis. Methods Forty‐four were divided into four groups: group H: 11 systemically periodontally healthy subjects; P: subjects periodontitis; RA: RA + Periodontal parameters (plaque index, modified gingival probing depth, clinical attachment level) recorded samples collected for estimation using ELISA. Results mean value...
Treatment of gingival recession has become an important therapeutic issue due to increasing cosmetic demand. This case report highlights the achievability novel pinhole surgical technique (PST) in treatment (GR) along with injectable platelet rich brin (i- PRF). A 23-year-old systemically healthy male patient Miller's class I GR were treated PST. iPRF was procured from patient's blood at time surgery and used for procedure.
