Central granular cell odontogenic tumour associated with sepsis, osteonecrosis and osteomyelitis
This report describes an unusual case of CGCOT as it was associated with severe signs of local and systemic infection. The patient was hospitalised for sepsis, high fever and facial swelling. The intraoral examination and the radiographic images led to the clinical diagnosis of periapical abscess caused by a severely decayed left maxillary third molar. After the surgical extraction of the tooth, a periapical lesion and fragments of the alveolar process were sent for histopathologic examination and immune-phenotypic characterisation. The pathological findings became crucial for the definitive diagnosis of CGCOT, osteonecros...

A central maxillary tumor with bland cytology, partly sclerotic stroma, and neural involvement. Sclerosing odontogenic carcinoma or epithelial neurotropism in an odontogenic fibroma?
ConclusionsThe tumor presented herein showed clinical, radiographical and microscopical features consistent with SOC and COdF, with neural involvement favoring a diagnosis of SOC. Epithelial neurotropism in a COdF could account for the similarities between those lesions and the rather quiescent, for an infiltrative intraosseous carcinoma, clinical behaviour of SOC.

Trigeminal Neuralgia and Associated Unwarranted Dental Treatment
ConclusionTo decrease the number of unwarranted dental procedures being done on TN patients, thorough knowledge of TN among both the public and dentists is essential to reduce patient agony, decrease delay in diagnosis, facilitate early resolution of symptoms and eventually disease and improve the patient ’s quality of life. Timely neurology referral is the key to better management and reduces unnecessary dental procedures undergone by patients unknowingly and eventually decreases the emotional and economic burden on them.

Surgical treatment of multiple impacted supernumerary teeth in a cleidocranial dysplasia patient: a case report
AbstractAimA case of 15 supernumerary teeth with cleidocranial dysplasia was reported and discussed in combination with literatures.Material and methodsDiagnose and treat a cleidocranial dysplasia patient with 15 impacted supernumerary teeth in the maxilla and mandible.Results and conclusionsWhen cleidocranial dysplasia is accompanied by supernumerary teeth ambushed in the jaw and does not affect health of the body, it can be regarded as a part of normal bone tissue. If X-ray or CT examination shows that supernumerary teeth affect permanent tooth eruption, the replacement process of adjacent teeth and permanent tooth erupt...

The Rare Schwannoma of the extracranial portion of the inferior alveolar nerve: Report of Six Cases
ConclusionsSchwannomas of the IAN are extremely rare benign tumors. Treatment options include complete surgical excision generally amenable to an intraoral approach. In cases in which patients are fearful of paresthesia of the IAN/mental nerve, appropriate long-term imaging can be used to follow those selected cases. (Source: Oral Surgery)

Long ‐term outcomes of mandibular reconstruction using non‐vascularised rib grafts following large ameloblastoma resection in Ethiopia
ConclusionWhen situational factors preclude the use of microsurgery, bundle rib-grafts offer a reliable alternative for total mandibular reconstruction for patients after ameloblastoma resection. Mild complications were experienced by most patients, but these were straightforward to manage and the rib-grafts still took well, being surprisingly resistant to infection. Importantly, this technique is associated with long-term improvements in social stigma and quality of life for patients. (Source: Oral Surgery)

Lower Third Molar Coronectomy: What Do We Know So Far?
AbstractCoronectomy is a treatment option for lower third molars with high risk of inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) injury. When it was first described, clinicians were skeptical of this new technique and were concerned about complications such as infection or pathological changes. Over the years, coronectomy has been proven to be effective in preventing IAN injury for high risk cases and is a safe technique in the long term. The other surgical morbidities of lower third molar coronectomy such as infection, pain and swelling are minimal, and occur at incidences similar to those of the conventional total removal of lower third...

Could female steroids lead to osteonecrosis of the jaw?
This study present the first known case of Tibolone related osteonecrosis of the jaw and explain the relationship between the drug and the osteonecrosis pathogenesis. One hypothesis for the small number of cases relating Tibolone and medication related osteonecrosis of the jaws is that the drug promote a different impact on bone metabolism. In this cases it is mandatory a local trauma. On the illustrative case we present within this letter, the installation of implants was what triggered the alterations and the necrosis. All surgeons should be aware of these drugs, and all the patients in the group of menopausal conditions...
