Abstract Intranasal ectopic tooth is a rare nidus for a rhinolith where local infection may be concomitant. No description of the triple association ‘actinomycotic rhinolithiasis ectopic tooth’ could be found…
Abstract The purpose of this study was to determine how keratocystic odontogenic tumours (KCOTs) in the mandible are reduced during marsupialisation, and to predict the best time for secondary enucleation…
