Parotid glands are rarely involved and, even rarer are the cases of sialoliths larger than 10 mm. This report presents the rare case of a giant parotid sialolith associated with facial cellulitis in a 75-year-old man. The treatment involved initially nonsurgical approach followed by a minimally invasive surgery to restore health and function. The treatment protocol was completely successful and proved effective in clinical and surgical management of giant parotid sialolith associated with facial cellulitis.

Traditional well established intermaxillary devices have a lot of limitations in these patients. This article presents a case of a 9-year-old female patient with a displaced mandibular fracture in which orthodontic buttons were used for transoperative maxillomandibular fixation followed by internal fixation after adequate occlusion reestablishment and fracture reduction. The method showed high efficacy and celerity, allowing the success of treatment, with satisfactory evolution of the patient.

However, ectopic third molar and lesions such as odontomas are rarely found simultaneously in the maxillary sinus. This report shows a successful treatment performed in a specific case of oroantral communication, associated to an underdiagnosed complex odontoma and an impacted ectopic third molar into the maxillary sinus and discuss the requirement of intervention. The treatment strategy involved clinical and surgical management through the oroantral communication, avoiding additional bone access to the maxillary sinus. This proposal presented a satisfactory result, and at six months after surgery, the patient has an excellent evolution, proving to be a successful strategy.
