Slow Growing

The ameloblastoma is a rare odontogenic tumor of the oral cavity. It is slow growing, locally invasive benign tumor affecting mandible more than maxilla mostly in age group 30-60 years. It grows in bone and soft tissue causing facial disfigurement. Treatment is surgical taking wide margins. This case report describes the treatment of a 30-year-old female having right side jaw swelling since two years, fine needle aspiration cytology was suggestive of ameloblastoma. Right hemi mandibulectomy was done by head and neck surgery team and reconstruction was done by plastic surgery team using free fibula flap. The free fibula osteocutaneous flap is the most versatile and reliable option for microsurgical reconstruction of large mandibular defects.

This is a case report of a 19 year old adult female with facial asymmetry secondary to right Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) ankylosis with a history of previous surgery at the age of 10 years with gap arthroplasty for tmj ankylosis which was unsuccessful and lead to relapse .Because of decreased mouth opening and facial disfigurement patient was not able to have a quality life. She reported to our department where she got operated simultaneously for tmj ankylosis with interpositional arthroplasty using temporalis myofascial flap and novel osteotomy technique for correction of chin asymmetry. After surgery there is a significant improvement in patient both functionally and aesthetically.

Mandibular Defect

ABSTRACT Rehabilitation of patients with mandibular defect requires a multidisciplinary approach involving a head and neck surgeon, maxillofacial prosthodontist and a reconstructive surgeon. A hemimandibulectomy patient can have many debilitating consequences such as eccentric occlusion, disoriented masticatory cycle, facial disfigurement, distorted speech and salivation problem. The aim of this case report is to describe a technique which combines crown with prosthetic rehabilitation to meet the functional and esthetic requirement of the hemimandibulectomy patients.

The following case report describes the expanding role of pediatric dentists in treating children with craniofacial pathology. Retinoblastoma is the most common intraocular malignancy in childhood and is approximately the tenth most common pediatric cancer in the United States. Treatment consists of enucleation, or removal of the entire globe followed by placement of orbital implants. Un-restored anopthalmic sockets exhibit growth retardation and can lead to facial disfigurement. Maxillofacial prosthetic (MFP) rehabilitation can be especially challenging in younger, pre-cooperative or behaviorally compromised children and requires the skills and participation of a pediatric dental specialist as part of the MFP team. The following case report involving a 3 yr-old girl with retinoblastoma describes such challenges. The objective of the maxillofacial prosthetic team was to provide custom-built, acrylic, bilateral ocular prostheses in as comfortable and atraumatic manner as possible. The case was a success and underscores the value of a multidisciplinary dental approach for the treatment of children with very special needs.

The most common benign salivary gland tumor is the pleomorphic adenoma (PA). They can attain grotesque proportions and weigh several kilograms. They can cause facial disfigurement and, if untreated, could lead to airway compromise. Authors report a case of a large PA arising from the right submandibular salivary gland in a 48-year-old male. The lesion measured 9cmx8cmx5cm.

Ameloblastoma is a benign but locally invasive neoplasm of odontogenic epithelium. Patients usually present late after the tumor achieves considerable size to cause facial disfigurement. Diagnosis made mainly from tissue biopsy. The challenges in the management of this tumor are to provide complete excision as recurrence rate is high. Reconstruct the bony defect in order to give reasonable cosmetic and functional outcome to the patient.

Ameloblastoma is a tumor of odontogenic epithelium arising from remnants of dental lamina. It is a benign tumor but locally invasive affecting mandible more than maxilla. Ameloblastomas grow into the bone and soft tissues causing facial disfigurement and facial deformities. Treatment is surgical. We present a case report of 60 year old male with swelling in jaw, biopsy revealed ameloblastoma. Anterior segmental mandibulectomy was done and reconstructed with fibular flap which restored both function and aesthetic appearance.

The most common benign salivary gland tumor is the pleomorphic adenoma (PA). They can attain grotesque proportions and weigh several kilograms. They can cause facial disfigurement and, if untreated, could lead to airway compromise. We report a case of a large PA arising from the left submandibular salivary gland in a 20-year-old black female. The lesion measured ∼16 × 15 ×12 cm.
