The mandibular bone is an important component of the facial bone, which has a unique role in digestive system, speech, and esthetics. For these functions it vital that surgeons should not only treat function but also consider esthetics together. Mandibular fractures are among most common traumatic injuries maxillofacial, region, second frequently fractured adult mandible due to its vulnerable position projected onto face. objective this study show detail all specific aspects, management...

Cleidocranial dysostosis, a rare autosomal dominant disorder classified under osteochondrodysplasias, exhibits prevalence of 1 in 1,000,000. This syndrome arises from haploinsufficiency the RUNX2 gene, initially documented 1765 and formally characterized 1871. Recognizing its clinical radiological features promptly is crucial for optimal management. article presents literature review case report pediatric patient diagnosed with cleidocranial dysostosis.
Ossifying Fibroma is a benign fibro-osseous tumor, but osteolytic and invasive, as well being rare lesion. It manifests itself more frequently in the mandible than upper jaw, located preferably molar (52%) or premolar (25%) region. most commonly diagnosed women (5:1) between 3rd 4th decades of life. related to other pathologies such bone dysplasia, florid cement-osseous among others.

When treating the esthetic zone different alternatives can be presented according to case variations and implications of treatment planning clinical challenges. Immediate placement protocols, favor both patient clinician. This particular technique reduces time needed throughout performing. document presents outcome immediate in zone. Clinical Considerations: report describes a 33 years old that requested rehabilitation...
This paper describes the treatment of a patient diagnosed clinically and based on cone beam computed tomography images with excessive gingival display caused by altered passive eruption Type 1B. A digitally computer designed 3-D printed surgical guide was fabricated for crown lengthening to provide periodontal esthetics. The combination intraoral scanners cone-beam computerized images, use planning software, provides very precise representation real conditions hard soft tissues. design...
Gorlin-Goltz Syndrome (GGS) also known as Nevoid Basal Cell Carcinoma is a rare autosomal dominant disorder. Is characterized for presenting some clinical features such palmar pits, fused eyebrows, multiple odontogenic keratocyst, which are considered of the most common signs. In our case, familial case highlights awareness when member family diagnosed with this condition, and probability to find in one first degree relative. Once again it confirmed that impossible determine without...
