Facial bone osteomas are uncommon, with only a few cases reported in the literature. Osteomas are benign neoplasms that are composed of well-differentiated, mature bones. There are three types of osteomas: central osteomas that develop from the endosteum, peripheral osteomas (PO) that develop from the periosteum, and extra-skeletal soft tissue osteomas that develop from the muscle. Both central and peripheral osteomas of the facial bones have been described. Peripheral osteomas have been reported in the frontal, ethmoid, and maxillary sinuses, but they are uncommon in the jawbone. It occurs at a younger age but is most prevalent in the sixth decade, with a female-to-male ratio of 1:2. The purpose of this case report was to examine the clinical manifestation and management protocol of such lesions using electrocautery.
Granuloma pyogenicum, also referred to as a pyogenic granuloma, is a typical, acquired, benign vascular tumor that develops in tissues like the skin and mucous membranes. The correct term is lobular capillary hemangioma. Is typically brought on by a variety of stimuli, including mild local irritation, acute damage, hormonal variables, or specific types of medications. Pyogenic granuloma often do not develop when the base and the causes of it are removed. The case of pyogenic granulomas treated surgically as well as electro cautery are presented in this paper.
Recession of the gingival margin is still a common problem, with negative consequences for both aesthetics and periodontal health. Complete root coverage of gingival recession defects with periodontal plastic surgery is a necessity in this era where aesthetics are a top priority. Correction of mucogingival recession deformities has been described using a variety of periodontal plastic surgical procedures, each with varying degrees of success. The goal of this case report is to describe how a semilunar coronally advanced flap was modified to treat gingival recession in the maxillary anterior tooth.
Introduction:
The use of tobacco in all forms is increasing day by day globally causing its ill effects on oral as well as overall health of the people and affecting their sense of well-being and quality of life.
Aim and Objectives:
The present study was done to investigate among patients the awareness of tobacco use and its ill effects on oral health.
Materials and Methods:
This descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted at Dr. RRK Dental College and Hospital, Akola. A total of 297 patients were asked using a self-structured questionnaire.
Results:
Out of a total of 297 patients participating in the study, 48 (16.2%) were female and 248 (83.8%) were male. About 81.7% of the patients were aware that heart problems can be one of the ill effects of tobacco chewing, while 3.7% were still not sure about it.
Conclusions:
We found that patients had a knowledge about the impact of tobacco on oral health.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
