Abstract Arterial pseudoaneurysms are rare in oral and maxillofacial surgery, but when they occur, quick recognition and management is necessary to avoid devastating consequences. The authors report a case of…
Abstract Recent experimental research demonstrated that non-reducing temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc displacement in growing rabbits impaired mandibular growth. TMJ disc displacement is also shown to induce histological changes of the…
Abstract A few cases of accidental displacement of molars into adjacent anatomical spaces, such as the infratemporal fossa, the pterygomandibular space, the maxillary sinus, or the lateral pharyngeal space, during…
Abstract Vascular anomalies are amongst the most common congenital abnormalities observed in infants and children. Their occurrence in the head and neck region is a source of functional and aesthetic…
Abstract Numerous previous studies have investigated the production of mineralised tissues by transplanting human dental pulp cells with calcium based scaffolds. The potential of alternative setups remains largely uninvestigated, therefore…

Abstract This study investigated the extent of complete anaesthesia from buccal nerve block. 40 healthy Thai patients (20 males; 20 females) requiring buccal nerve block for surgery were studied. After…
Abstract Bisphosphonate induced osteonecrosis of the jaw (BONJ) is a complication in patients taking bisphosphonate (BP) that affects their quality of life and compliance. In this cohort study, patients with…
Abstract Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is often surrounded by epithelial dysplasia; leaving it unresected can result in local recurrence. Staining with Lugol’s iodine solution detects epithelial dysplasia in oral…
Abstract The aim of this study was to examine the effects of mandibular setback surgery on pharyngeal airway space and respiratory function during sleep. The subjects were 22 patients in…
