Outcome of Management of Mandibular Sub condylar Fractures Based on Classification System Using Cone-Beam Computed Tomography
ConclusionThe study emphasises on use of three-dimensional diagnostic modality like cone-beam computed tomography for accurately classifying sub condylar fractures. The results favour closed reduction for mildly displaced Class I cases and surgical management of significantly displaced Class III fractures. The need for open reduction for Class II patients classified using CBCT is negligible assessing risks associated with surgical procedure which is contradictory to our protocol which requires a further comparative evaluation among Class II group.

A Case Series of Prosthetic Rehabilitation of Post-COVID Rhinorbitocerebral Mucormycosis Ocular Defects: A Digital and Analog Experience
AbstractRemoval of a part of or the entire orbit results in facial defect, causing psychological trauma to the patient, apart from anatomic loss. This case series presents 6 clinical cases of prosthetic rehabilitation of ocular defects related to post-COVID-19 ROCM by both analog and digital workflow. The basic objective of this case series was to achieve a well retained, user-friendly, maxillofacial ocular prosthesis with esthetic accuracy. Unique size and shape of the ocular defect in each case, variety of skin tones, age range of patients and compromised neuromuscular control made each of the six cases challenging. This...

Secondary Reconstruction of Head and Neck Cancer Defects —Principles in its Practice
ConclusionBony reconstruction of both mandible and maxilla is possible, with the former being more difficult to deliver good results due to the associated soft tissue fibrosis. Virtual surgical planning with the aid of Stereo lithographic models and planning software will improve the quality of bony reconstruction. Detailed counseling sessions involving patient and the family are essential before embarking on secondary reconstruction as the patient expectations and the surgical outcome may not be easy to match. However excellent improvement in function and appearance will be possible in many patients with appropriate recon...

Arsenic Trioxide-Induced Mandibular Osteomyelitis Associated with Mycotic Infestation: A Case Report
This report describes a case of alveolar osteomyelitis triggered by arsenic trioxide pulp devitalization and associated with mycotic infestation. Following clinical and radiological examinations, the concerned tooth was extracted, bone sequestrum was removed and granulation tissue was debrided. Histopathological biopsy examination, stained with hematoxylin/eosin, Grocott ’s silver methenamine and periodic acid-Schiff, confirmed the diagnosis of chemical osteomyelitis associated with fungal infestation. Six months postoperatively, normal bone healing was observed. (Source: Journal of Maxillofacial and Oral Surgery)

Versatility of Facial Artery Musculomucosal (FAMM) Flap for Reconstruction of Oral Cavity Defects
ConclusionFAMM flap offers various advantages for oral cavity reconstruction including mucosa reconstruction with alike mucosal tissue, muscle portion providing bulk, minimal donor site morbidity along with easier harvesting approach. There are no associated significant long-term complications if the technique is properly followed. FAMM should be considered a viable option for the reconstruction of a variety of oral cavity defects. (Source: Journal of Maxillofacial and Oral Surgery)
