Aim: To report an uncommon case of an extraoral sinus tract of the facial region caused by a tooth with an acute apical abscess in the mandible. Case report: Established on oral examination and radiographic examination, an Acute Apical Abscess (cellulitis/phlegmon) of tooth 47 was diagnosed, which had resulted in a cutaneous sinus tract. The continuous purulent discharge of the sinus tract in the facial right region ceased after drainage and extraction of tooth 47. Conclusion: It is challenging to diagnose and identify a cutaneous draining sinus tract of dental origin. Thus, treatment of skin lesions of the face (impetigo), and neck odontogenic infections should always be considered. Clinical and radiographic dental examinations can identify the tooth involved.

AbstractSeveral studies in the past have shown variations in the vessels of facial region. Facial artery may show variations in its origin, course, termination and branching pattern. Undocumented termination of facial artery as inferior labial artery and transverse facial artery emerging as a branch of maxillary artery was observed in the present study. Also, associated with it two distinct facial veins were also observed. To our knowledge, coexistence of this anomalous branching pattern has not been reported in the literature. A thorough knowledge about normal as well as variant vascular anatomy is crucial for interpretation of various interventional vascular procedures and performing surgical explorative procedures in this region including plastic surgery.

Cleft lip and palate is the most common congenital malformation in oro-facial region. In adult cases where defect is large and paucity of tissue is there, prosthetic management of the defect with palatal obutrator and velopharyngeal appliance is the treatment of choice. It requires scrupulous clinical skills and detailed knowledge of anatomy to prevent airway obstruction and discomfort during function. Acoustic pharyngometry (AP) is an advanced tool to evaluate the airway in 3D during function without radiation exposure. In this case report palatal obturator with speech aid prosthesis was fabricated to rehabilitate an adult cleft palate patient. AP test was done to ensure adequate airway space with prosthesis.
