Research paper thumbnail of A Rare case of Ectopic tooth associated with Dentigerous cyst in maxillary sinus

Ectopic eruption of teeth may be associated with developmental disturbances, pathologies or may be iatrogenic.[1,2] Ectopic eruption of a tooth into the oral cavity is common, however 3 ectopic eruption of tooth at other sites is quite rare. Maxillary 1 sinus is not a common location for an ectopic tooth. When present in the maxillary sinus, ectopic tooth usually presents asymptomatically. However, some patients may experience symptoms like sinusitis, headache, runny nose, nasomaxillary anatomy deviation.[2,4] Dentigerous cysts associated with ectopic teeth within the maxillary sinus are rare: in the literature about 30 cases have been described. A 30 year male patient reported to the Outpatient department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery with the complaint of pain and swelling in upper left side of the face since 15-20 days. No history of trauma was reported by the patient.

Research paper thumbnail of Prevalence of paediatric maxillo-facial trauma in India: a single centre, 5-year retrospective study

Facial trauma in children carries a challenge for management as well as aesthetic rehabilitation. This article presents incidence of facial injury in children using a single centre data from 2017-2021. Due to higher cranial mass to body ratio (8:1), children are commonly affected by facial injuries. 1-3 The less mineralized bone, flexible bone suture lines, lack of pneumatization of paranasal sinuses, presence of unerupted teeth renders the paediatric skeleton more susceptible to trauma which leads to green stick fracture in children. The prominence of buccal fat pad scatters the momentum of force to wider regions, hence in children it demands greater force to fracture the bones when ABSTRACT Background: Trauma is one of the most common reasons of fatalities worldwide. A study on the prevalence is important to know about the common causes of trauma. Such studies and data boost the campaigning on prevention and increasing awareness against trauma. Methods: Traumatised patients who reported to the emergency or casualty department of Mahatma Gandhi hospital, Sitapura, Jaipur or outpatient department of department of oral and maxillofacial surgery of Mahatma Gandhi Dental college and hospital, Sitapura, Jaipur between January 2017 and December 2021 were selected for this study. The hospital records of patients were retrospectively analysed for age, gender, etiology of trauma, distribution of fracture in facial structure and among maxilla and mandible, treatment procedures patients underwent in different age groups. Results: 371 traumatic patients were analysed for paediatric maxillofacial trauma. The commonly affected age group were found to be 13-16 years, with road traffic accidents being the most common etiology leading to mandible green stick fracture with dentoalveolar and Lefort II fracture in majority of cases. The frequent treatment option was found to be either conservative management, circummandibular wiring, splinting or Open Reduction and Internal Fixation according to age groups. Conclusions: The facial injury pattern is influenced by growth and age of patient. The effect and the management of trauma depend on the age of child. Road traffic accident are the most common cause of trauma and mandible bone is the most frequently fractured bone with dentoalveolar fracture during facial injuries. A clear male predilection has also been observed.

This can be corrected using a minimally invasive procedure “Threadlift” which produces precise lifting of the drooping tissues using threads, in place of a more invasive surgical procedure “Facelift”. Objective: A Comparative evaluation of COG Polydioxanone and MONO Polydioxanone threads in the treatment of sagging facial skin. Method: 6 cases were reported in the Out-Patient Department (OPD) of Mahatma Gandhi Dental College and Hospital, Jaipur with mild to moderate sagginess of facial skin. The patients were randomly allocated into two groups: COG Polydioxanone and Mono Polydioxanone. The procedure was performed in a single sitting, OPD basis, and Evaluation of each case was done post-operatively. Result: COG Polydioxanone threads proved to be more satisfactory in lifting the loose facial skin as compared to MONO Polydioxanone threads. Complications were rare and w...
