Objectives: The aim of this report which contains three case series is to describe the radiographic characteristic of dentigerous cyst using CBCT. Case Report: In the case presented here, all of the three patients had dentigerous cyst developing in impacted tooth, but did not have the same symptoms. CBCT radiography examination was carried out to find out the margin of the cortical extension, the diameter of the lesion, and the relations between the lesion and adjacent structures. The result of CBCT examination shows there is a variation of radiograph characteristics of dentigerous cyst among the three patients. Conclusion: CBCT is a very useful complementary tool for diagnosis and surgical planning in cases of dentigerous cyst, because three-dimensional viewing of the structures offers greater accuracy in lesion identification.

Ameloblastoma is a most common benign odontogenic tumour. It is slow growing but aggressive tumour which causes destruction of jaw bones. Clinically it is asymptomatic and can be noticed when the tumour increases gradually in size and causes facial asymmetry or detected during dental radiographic procedures for evaluating the missing or impacted teeth, especially third molar. Unicystic ameloblastomas account for 10-15 % of all intraosseous ameloblastomas. Here we discuss a case report of unicystic ameloblastoma with its clinical and radiological features along with emphasizing the three-dimensional imaging assessment of the case. Key words Ameloblastoma, jaw cyst, Odontogenic tumor, adamantinoma

Cementoblastomas are rare benign tumours that represent less than 1% of all odontogenic tumours. Complete resection is mandatory to avoid recurrence. This case report describes the contribution of three-dimensional imaging and three-dimensional printing in the pre-operative surgical planning of a large cementoblastoma that not only caused substantial compression on the inferior alveolar and mental nerves, but also caused thinning and partial erosion of the lingual and vestibular cortical bone, thus increasing the risk of pre-operative mandibular fracture.

ABSTRACT It is possible to unify three-dimensional customized orthodontic techniques and three-dimensional surgical technology. In this case report, it is introduced a treatment scheme consisting of passive self-ligation customized brackets and virtual surgical planning combined with the orthognathic surgery-first approach in a Class III malocclusion patient. Excellent facial and occlusal outcomes were obtained in a reduced treatment time of five months.

Facial skeletal reconstruction of patients with severe Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) requires correction of both midface and mandibular deficiencies. Implementing virtual surgical planning can provide an accurate three-dimensional analysis of craniofacial abnormalities, creating calvarial donors that match the anatomy of the desired malar augmentation and facilitating bimaxillary movements, positioning, and fixation in orthognathic surgery. We present a case of an 18-year-old patient with TCS, who underwent staged zygomaticomaxillary reconstruction and double-jaw osteotomy with sliding genioplasty, using computer-assisted surgical planning. Following these operations, the patient achieved not only improved facial harmony but also class I occlusion.
