Fear and pain are the factors producing stress there is evidence that dental fear acquired in childhood may persist to influence adult behavior. Dental treatment often considered as anxiety stressful.To assess levels of displayed by healthy children undergoing routine procedures like oral examination, restoration, extraction analyzing salivary cortisol before, during, after procedures.Twenty aged between 4 8 years having their first visit requiring at least one restoration were selected. In...

Local anesthesia has been reliably used to control pain during dental procedures and is important in pediatric dentistry. However, children occasionally complain of prolonged numbness after treatment, leading several problems. Studies conducted reverse the effect local using phentolamine mesylate photobiomodulation therapy (PBM) are encouraging but limited. PBM a type light that utilizes visible near-infrared non-ionizing electromagnetic spectral sources. Hence, this study modality compare...

Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a localised granulation tissue overgrowth, in reaction to mild irritation. The aetiology of the lesion not known, though it was originally believed be botryomycotic infection. clinical diagnosis such can quite challenging. purpose this article report an unusual case benign tumour adolescent boy who clinically diagnosed as PG and histopathologically capillary haemangioma. being lesion; surgical excision performed predisposing irritants were removed.

Pain is a multidimensional construct that involves sensory, emotional, and cognitive processes. It an essential component of child behavior guidance. The injection local anesthetic agent during pediatric dental treatment one the most painful distressing procedures performed, stimulation acupoint LI4 provides analgesic effect in orofacial region, thus decreasing pain injection.To compare evaluate low-level laser on surface-acting 20% benzocaine gel anesthesia.Children age-group between 5...

By definition the extra teeth present in oral cavity are supernumerary which found any area of cavity. Sometimes Supernumerary even anterior region maxilla is called as mesiodens. Mesiodens most common teeth, occurring 0.15–1.9% population. The exact etiology mesiodens not fully understood, but proliferation dental lamina and genetic factors can be reason. either paired or single, unerupted impacted unaesthetic time associated with complications like midline diastema, rotation, displacement,...

Haemorrhagic diathesis has been of much concern to health professionals including dentists. It is not infrequent that a dentist becomes the first person diagnose bleeding disorder while performing dental treatment. Haemophilia an X linked with frequency about 1:10,000 births. B less common than haemophilia A, and affects only 1:300,000 males born alive. The clinical features are very similar those A prolongation activated partial thromboplastin time. This case report describes management...

Autism or autistic disorder is lifetime neurodevelopment described as major impairment in mutual social interactions, communication ability, and repetitive patterns of interests behaviors. Since, globally large number children affected by this devastating disorder, dental professionals should provide oral health care with family-centered approach comprising thorough understanding parental concern, exceptional medical conditions, vivid behaviours each personality patient to improve the...

Materials methods A self-administered, structured questionnaire written English validated through a pretested survey was randomly mailed postgraduate students dental colleges. total 182 complete filled questionnaires were returned with response rate 68.2%. data analyzed using SPSS version 15.0. Student's t-test ANOVA test used as...

Renal tubular acidosis is a group of disorders in which there metabolic due to defect renal acidification mechanism maintain normal plasma bicarbonate and blood pH. Irrespective organ system involved, oral cavity often reflects the disease occurring anywhere body. Thus congenital chronic diseases, causing acid–base disturbances affects development structure teeth. Chronic causes enamel defects, dental caries, candidiasis, angular cheilitis, etc. We hereby present an unusual case report...

Ichthyosis vulgaris is a cornification disorder that characterized by accumulation of hyperkeratotic fish like scales on the skin surface. It clinically scaling, especially flexor limbs, with palm plantar hyper linearity. This paper illustrates dermatological as well dental manifestations 14 year old boy affected ichthyosis which makes this case very much unique.

Aim: To study the functional and anatomic outcomes of retinectomy 180° or more in eyes with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RD) advanced proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) Grade D. Materials methods: A retrospective analysis 51 that underwent pars-plana vitrectomy (PPV) for RD PVR D was done. Main outcome measures included reattachment, visual complications at a follow-up 12 months. Separate these parameters also carried out subgroup one-eyed patients. Results: Overall reattachment...

Remineralizing agents such as fluoride and casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) are popular treatment choices for incipient enamel lesions. Recently introduced resin infiltration enhances the esthetics of teeth affected by these Furthermore, few studies reported utilization colloidal silica white spot However, potency materials in primary necessitates investigation.Thus, this study evaluated compared effectiveness CPP-ACP (CPP-ACPF), infiltration, on surface...

The aim of present study was to investigate the difference torque control during intrusive force on upper central incisors with normal, under and high in lingual labial orthodontic systems through 3D finite element analysis.Six models an right incisor different were designed Solid Works 2006. Software ANSYS Version 16.0 used evaluate model . An 0.15 N applied bracket slot displacements along a path nodes assessed.On application Intrusive torqued Labial system produce crown movement but...

Local anaesthesia is key to painless dental surgical, endodontic and operative procedures. Lignocaine the gold standard for pain management in dentistry since ages. But, articaine more potent than lignocaine attaining infiltration local with low toxicity. Currently, extensively utilized however infrequently used children. Nevertheless, selection of anaesthetic; potency, latency, duration anaesthetic effect, pharmacokinetics toxicity anaesthetics should be evaluated. Therefore, we will...

Background: Various topical gels, varnishes, and fluoride gels are being used by dentists for the treatment of White spot lesions (WSLs). The remineralizing effect casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP), nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAp), lasers has been proven earlier. This study was designed to evaluate nHAp CPP-ACP with without erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Er: YAG) laser irradiation on demineralized primary enamel. aim this Er:YAG microhardness surface morphology...
