The as-deposited films were found by x-ray diffraction to be amorphous but magnetic, and showed large high field susceptibility. The films were studied after they were annealed at various temperatures up to 850°C. It was observed that the films crystallize upon annealing and the value of the saturation magnetization increases with annealing temperature. The high field susceptibility, on the other hand, decreases with increasing anneal temperature. The measured ferromagnetic resonance spectra of these films indicated that the films consist of at least two different magnetic materials. A significant portion in the film crystallizes and the value of saturation magnetization of this portion tends to the bulk value as annealing temperature is increased. However, a small portion of the film remains in a highly defective state all through, even up to annealing temperatures of 850°C. The high field susceptibility data indicates that point defects could play an important role in determining the magnetic properties of these films.

The main objective of this article is to evaluate the efficacy of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) for secondary alveolar bone grafting. Patients between 9 and 14 years of age were included in study and were divided in two groups: Group 1—iliac bone with PRF and group 2—iliac bone without PRF. Radiographic assessment was done preoperatively, immediate postoperatively, and at 3, 6, and 9 months, respectively. Vertical bone height was assessed using 4-point scale. In group 1, 14 patients showed grade 1 resorption at 3 months and at 6 and 9 months all patients showed grade 1 resorption. In group 2, 16 patients had grade 1 resorption at 3 months, 2 patients had grade 2 resorption at 6 months, and 6 patients had grade 2 resorption at 9 months. Use of PRF growth factor with autogenous bone results in greater osteogenic effect which increases new bone regeneration and better wound healing.

The aim of this study is to retrospectively analyze the effect unerupted or partially erupted third molars have on the angle and condyle fracture patterns of the mandible. It also focuses on evaluating the type of impaction that causes angle fracture and the level at which the condyle most commonly fractures. The study involves all the patients who had undergone treatment for condylar and angle of the mandible fractures from 2010 to 2017 in our craniofacial center. The case records and orthopantomograms of each patient were taken into consideration and a correlation was established based on gender, age, etiology, presence of third molars, position of third molars, angulation, and root development of third molars. Of the 150 angle fracture patients, 146 had third molars and 4 did not, whereas of the 130 condyle fractures, third molar was present in 54 patients and absent in 76. The prevalence of angle fractures was statistically significant when a third molar was present, whereas the prevalence of condyle fractures was higher when third molar was absent. The results of age, etiology, angulation, position, and root development of third molars were also statistically significant. However, sex of the patient did not influence the fracture pattern. The presence of an impacted third molar or a completely erupted one has a definite influence on the fracture pattern of the mandible. The occurrence of angle and condyle fractures was mostly affected by the continuity of the cortical bone at the angle of the mandible. Hence, prophylactic removal of mandibular third molars does increase the risk of condyle fractures.
