One Step Apexification "The Apical Barrier Technique”
The calcifying odontogenic cyst is a rare lesion that exhibits features of both a cyst and a solid neoplasm. It was first described as a separate entity in 1962 by Gorlin and his colleagues. In 1971, the World Health Organization defined the calcifying odontogenic cyst as "a non-neoplastic cystic lesion in which the epithelial lining shows a well-defined basal layer of columnar cells, an overlying layer that is often many cells thick and that may resemble stellate reticulum, and masses of 'ghost' epithelial cells that may be in the epithelial cyst lining or in the fibrous capsule." Here, we present a case report of a 21-year-old male patient with a calcifying cyst associated with an impacted left mandibular third molar.
A seven-year-old girl presented with complaints of swollen gums and unerupted teeth. Upon clinical examination, she was found to have moderate to severe diffuse gingival enlargement of the maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth. After ruling out drug and medical history and critically reviewing similar conditions, the diagnosis was made based on clinical and histopathological findings. The hyperplastic tissue was removed by gingivectomy.
Tobacco smoking significantly influences periodontal health and disease, having adverse effects on oral health and dental care. The health consequences of tobacco use are worsening globally, particularly those caused by cigarette smoking. Smoking is associated with an increased rate of periodontal attachment loss, periodontal pocket formation, and periodontal bone loss. Although gingivitis and periodontitis are caused by bacterial infection, smoking has been shown to be a strong risk marker and likely a risk factor for the development and progression of periodontal disease (Tonetti, 1998). When smoking's role in periodontal disease was first discovered, it was believed to be linked to plaque (Arno et al., 1958). However, Bergstrom et al. (1991) concluded that smoking is a risk factor even for individuals with good oral hygiene. Moreover, the combined effect of smoking and plaque infection is likely to be more destructive than either factor alone.
Tay syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that is usually seen in communities where consanguinity is frequent. It is also known as IBIDS (Ichthyosis, Brittle hair, Intellectual impairment, Decreased fertility, and Short stature). Apart from describing the usual findings, this report focuses on the dental manifestations seen in one such patient and emphasizes the importance of comprehensive dental care in children with systemic disorders.
This study was carried out to compare metal ceramic porcelain systems with all porcelain systems in terms of marginal integrity and fracture resistance. Although both have excellent esthetic and biocompatible properties, issues related to marginal integrity and crack propagation have been problematic. Researchers have attempted to improve these shortcomings.
