Smokeless tobacco (SLT) as a drug substance has been used throughout the world although it dangerous effects on human health. Among 28 known carcinogens in SLT, tobacco-specific nitrosamines are considered to be most potent. This challenged metabolic condition leading rise inflammatory status, increased apoptosis, and red blood cell (RBC) membrane damage. Therefore, present study was undertaken evaluate adverse of SLT hematological parameters establish correlation between them. A total 100...

Ossifying fibromas are well-demarcated benign fibro-osseous tumors of craniofacial skeleton most often in the jaws. It has two types, conventional and juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF). JOF is considered a separate entity from due to its locally aggressive behavior tendency occur at young age. Two subtypes JOF, i.e., psammomatoid (JPOF) trabecular have been identified on basis histology 70% JPOF paranasal sinuses, 20% maxilla only 10% mandible.
