“…However, this study had some limitations. Routine panoramic radiography can occasionally detect undiagnosed diseases and silent lesions [ 34 ]. Although it provides an affordable useful diagnostic tool, the inherent image distortion and magnification are among the main limitations of dental panoramic image [ 35 ].…”

Objectives Elongation of the styloid process causes different symptoms with varying degrees of severity in some people. This elongation can be detected haply during routine reading of panoramic X-ray. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence rate of Eagle’s syndrome among a population from Damascus, Syria, and to evaluate the accompanying clinical symptoms. Methods This is a descriptive epidemiological study including 3,962 patients who attended one of the many dental clinics of educational and/or healthcare institutions in Damascus. All digital panoramic radiographs were reviewed, and the styloid processes were measured and assessed for elongation. Patients with styloid process of more than 3 cm in length were contacted and their consents were obtained to participate in the study to assess the presence of clinical symptoms. Results Radiographic elongation of the styloid process was found in 179 out of the 3,962 assessed dental records (prevalence rate was 4.5%). Length ranged from 30 to 90 mm, with an average of 55.9 mm. Of the patients with elongated styloid process, 10.2% had undergone tonsillectomy. All patients who underwent tonsil surgeries were symptomatic with at least three of the studied symptoms. Symptoms included peri-orbital pain (40.9%), orbital pain (35.2%), neck and shoulders pain (52.3%), ipsilateral headache (58%), earache (30.7%), tinnitus (37.5%), articular clicking (29.5%), throat pain (31.8%), globus sensation (22.7%), and dysphagia (21.6%). Conclusions The prevalence of Eagle’s syndrome according to this study was 4.5%. Patients who had undergone tonsillectomy were more likely to be more symptomatic. The most common symptom was severe headache (migraine) on the same side of styloid elongation. Panoramic radiography is a low-cost means that can be helpful in the diagnosis of vague pain and symptoms caused by Eagle’s syndrome in the head and neck regions.

Odontomas are the most common odontogenic neoplasms. They are generally small and asymptomatic. This article presents an unusual case of a giant maxillary complex odontoma, which obscured a part of the maxillary antrum and impacted a tooth. This was discovered during an episode of maxillofacial cellulitis. In this case, surgical excision of the lesion was performed under general anesthesia, and the closure was performed with a fat pad pedicled flap. A brief review of the literature was performed to analyze the characteristics of this clinical entity and their implication in the treatment.

“…Fotografías clínicas intraorales de la paciente (hemiarcada inferior y oclusión del lado derecho) problemas patológicos asociados al mismo, como la falta de erupción dental, formación de quistes, comprensión de estructuras adyacentes o la interferencia con la erupción de dientes permanentes 2,3,5 , es decir, que este no ha tenido repercusiones negativas en la salud bucal de la paciente. Como tampoco se han producido variaciones en sus dimensiones, contrastando con parte de la literatura que señala que los odontomas pueden alcanzar grandes tamaños que conducen a la expansión del hueso cortical con asimetría facial y que incluso pueden erupcionar a la cavidad oral y causar infecciones e incluso fractura mandibular 9,10,11 .…”

El odontoma es una de las malformaciones odontogénicas más comunes y frecuentes en la consulta odontológica, caracterizada por la presencia de tejidos dentarios desorganizados, además de otras particularidades, según se trate de un odontoma compuesto o complejo. El presente artículo describe un caso clínico de un odontoma complejo y analiza su diagnóstico y evolución clínica y radiográfica a lo largo del período 2014-2022. Este fue el producto de un hallazgo en paciente femenina, asintomática durante un examen radiográfico de rutina. A pesar de que la literatura científica recomienda la extracción quirúrgica del odontoma, en este caso se optó por mantenerlo en boca debido a la ausencia de problemas patológicos asociados y la falta de interferencia con la erupción dental. Se sugiere un seguimiento a largo plazo para evaluar la salud bucal del paciente. Este caso resalta la importancia de las revisiones periódicas para detectar patologías bucales y la necesidad de evaluar cada caso individualmente para determinar el tratamiento más adecuado.
