Abstract Chondrocalcinosis is a non-infectious, inflammatory arthropathy which is typically characterized by intra-articular deposition of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystals. The occurrence of chondrocalcinosis in the temporomandibular joint is uncommon. This…
Abstract Synovial Chondromatosis (SC) of the Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a rare disorder with an indolent clinical course that leads to nonspecific symptoms, dysfunction, and anatomic distortion of the TMJ….
Abstract Acromegaly is a chronic and progressive disease related to a disorder of growth hormone production. It may present with a variety of clinical signs and a dento-facial deformity and…
Abstract A 12-year-old girl was referred to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery for a large cystic lesion, which was gradually increasing in size. We diagnosed her with intraosseous…
Highlights • SCH is a rare vascular tumour, even rarer in head and neck region. • SCH is reactive vascular proliferation rather than an angiosarcoma. • Unique pathophysiology influences SCH’s…
Abstract Background Autogenous tooth transplantation of impacted maxillary canines can be considered in cases where traditional treatment options are prone to failure. We report a clinical case of autogenous tooth…
Graphical abstract Highlights • AgNPs cross-linked within glass ionomer cement (GIC) matrices generated antibiofilm effects at the nanocomposite surface. • AgNP-containing GICs had higher compressive strengths and equivalent flexural strengths…
Abstract Objectives Dental plaque build-up on the cervical area adjacent to gingival margins is a trigger factor for secondary caries around restored root caries lesions. Dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) and amorphous…
Highlights • Transmitted irradiance is affected by surface reflection, attenuation and scattering. • A correction calculating true transmitted irradiance can be implemented. • The model can be applied for individual…
Highlights • The C-factor is the relative thickness of the fully constrained boundary layer. • The boundary-layer thickness is proportional to the specimen’s diameter only. • The optical test presented…
