A rare case of two Stafne bone cavities in the ipsilateral mandible with bicortical bone perforation
AbstractStafne bone cavity (SBC) is a bone defect which appears unilaterally round or oval shaped radiolucent area with well-defined border. The most common location of the defect is the mandibular molar area at the lingual side of the mandible, below the mandibular canal. Additionally other rarer variants of SBC, anterior lingual, buccal aspect of ascending ramus, and lingual aspect of ascending ramus are also reported. In this paper, a rare case of posterior and anterior variant of double SBCs with buccal cortical bone perforation was presented. An 83-year-old male patient was referred to our clinic for a routine dental ...

Radiographic characteristics of the maxillomandibular complex in neufibromatosis: short communication and literature review
ConclusionCompleting the combination of skin characteristics present in the patient, anamnesis data and current history of the disease with interpretation of radiographic alterations, it was possible to arrive at the diagnostic hypothesis of Neurofibromatosis type 1 and correct clinical management. Therefore, it is extremely important for the dentist to be aware of the clinical, physical and radiographic characteristics that this condition presents for the correct management and success of dental treatment.

Disc –condyle relationship alterations following stabilization splint therapy or arthrocentesis plus hyaluronic acid injection in patients with anterior disc displacement: a retrospective cohort study
ConclusionsSS was effective in improving the disc –condyle relationship in ADD subjects, while significant improvement of disc–condyle relationship cannot be achieved through arthrocentesis plus HA injection. (Source: Oral Radiology)

Patient safety incidents in dentomaxillofacial imaging: reported adverse events from Hospital District Helsinki and Uusimaa and the City of Helsinki during 2012 –2017
ConclusionsPSI in DMFR are only rarely reported, and mostly, they are perceived of causing little or no harm. We detected a great difference in reporting activity between primary and secondary healthcare workers, but the underlaying causes remain unclear. (Source: Oral Radiology)

Detecting the presence of taurodont teeth on panoramic radiographs using a deep learning-based convolutional neural network algorithm
ConclusionsCNN ’s ability to identify taurodontism produced almost identical results to the labeled training data, and the CNN system achieved close to the expert level results in its ability to detect the taurodontism of teeth. (Source: Oral Radiology)

Evaluation of the temporomandibular joint morphology and condylar position with cone-beam computerized tomography in patients with internal derangement
ConclusionPosteriorly and superiorly located condyles with an increased CH/GFD ratio, condyles located eccentrically, and a steeper posterior slope may be risk factors for ID. (Source: Oral Radiology)

Target registration errors in navigation-assisted mandibular surgery according to the tracking methods and the type of markers: experiments using human dry mandibular bone
ConclusionsThis study demonstrates that irrespective of the tracking modality, using invasive marker is a better choice in terms of accuracy. When using noninvasive marker, it is important to consider the increased TREs. In this study, the noninvasive marker caused a maximum increment of TREs of 0.81  mm compared with the invasive marker. Furthermore, using an EM-based tracker with invasive marker may result in the best accuracy for navigation. (Source: Oral Radiology)

Analysis of the relationship between condylar changes and anterior disc displacement with reduction: a preliminary study
ConclusionCondylar shape, position, and dimensions assessed by CBCT are significantly correlated with ADDWR of the TMJ. Substituting the values of condylar width, height and depth in the equation suggests the probability of ADDWR. (Source: Oral Radiology)

Progressive destruction of jaws caused by the delayed treatment of Langerhans cell histiocytosis in a 2-year-old boy: A case report
AbstractLangerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a disease with varied clinic manifestations. The oral symptoms and signs of LCH localized to the jaws are nonspecific, which may lead to misdiagnosis of this disease. The purpose of this paper was to present the case of a 2-year, 4-month-old LCH patient with progressive destruction of jaws caused by the delayed treatment due to the global outbreak of COVID-19. The cone beam CT analysis after an interval of 6  months reminded us the great significance of early diagnosis and treatment of LCH. (Source: Oral Radiology)
