Objectives: This case report is aimed to report the finding of canalis sinuosus on an impacted maxillary canine using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) examination. Case Report: A 21-year-old male was referred from orthodontic department to radiology department UNPAD Dental Hospital for CBCT to determine the treatment of malalignment asymptomatic maxillary canine. The case revealed the presence of canalis that was identified as a canalis sinuosus, a branch of the anterior superior alveolar nerve that rarely known by a practitioner, at the apex of impacted right maxillary canine. Conclusion: The information of this anatomical variation is important for professionals due to damage that may be caused during treatment. The use of advanced imaging examination is recommended to acknowledge the individual anatomical variation before determining the proper treatment planning.

Objectives: This case report is aimed to present a finding of a benign tumor at the Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) area involving the condylar head of the mandible that radiographically showed the typical features of osteochondroma using and emphasizing on the application of Cone Beam CT (CBCT) imaging. Case Report: A 24-year-old female patient came to the Radiology Department of Unpad Dental Hospital as referred from her previous dental surgeon to get CBCT examination of her entire right side of mandible with a provisional diagnosis of mandibular hyperplasia. Conclusion: Osteochondroma and condylar hyperplasia are often clinically difficult to differentiate, CBCT imaging can easily distinguish the enlargement of condylar head in condylar hyperplasia with irregular condylar mass and altered trabecular pattern in osteochondroma. CBCT may be helpful in establishing the diagnosis of condylar tumors originating from bone.

ABSTRACT Maxillary canine and first premolar transposition is a complicated dental anomaly to treat, especially if the clinician's goal is to orthodontically move the canine into its normal position. Early diagnosis with cone-beam computed tomography simplifies the treatment of this pathology. This case report describes a patient with bilateral transposition, one complete and the other incomplete, involving the maxillary canine and the first premolar (Mx.C.1P). The orthodontic treatment involved the correction of both transpositions. In the complete transposition, the traction was mesial and upward to move the canine into a more apical position with a wider dentoalveolar process for easier crown interchange.

The canalis sinuosus is a neurovascular canal, a branch of nerve of infraorbital canal, through which the anterior superior alveolar nerve passes and then leans medially in course between the nasal cavity and the maxillary sinus, reaching the premaxilla in the canine and incisor region. The purpose of this article is to report a case with the presence of canalis sinuosus, in order to alert and guide professionals and discuss the morphology of this anatomical variation avoiding trans- and postsurgical disorders in dental implants. A 51-year-old female was attended to in a radiology clinic, reporting paresthesia in the right upper lip region and painful symptomatology after the installation of an implant in the corresponding region. The case revealed the presence of canalis sinuosus in imaging exams. The knowledge of this anatomical variation is essential for professionals, because attention to this region prevents irreversible damage. Therefore, the use of imaging examinations is recommended during the planning stages and treatment and after surgery in patients undergoing surgery in this area.

Objectives: The aim of this case report is to describe radiographic characteristic of keratocyst odontogenic tumor (KCOT) in maxilla using CBCT. Case Report: A 20 year-old women patient was referred to the Oral Maxillofacial Radiology Department of Padjadjaran University with the  chief complaint of swelling, painless in the anterior of the upper jaw. In this presented case, we used cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to find out the margin of the cortical extension, and diameter of the lesion. The CBCT examination shows radiolucent, well-defined lesion in 12-14 region with displacement of 12. The size of the lesion is about 20x15x19mm extended posterior-superiorly near to nasal cavity and it shows less degree of bone expansion. Based on radiographic and clinical examination, the diagnosis was keratocyst odontogenic tumor (KCOT). Conclusion: KCOT has some radiographic characteristic distinguishable with another odontogenic lesion. Therefore, CBCT examination is recommended for the diagnosis of odontogenic keratocyst and proper surgical planning.

Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor is a benign hamartomatous odontogenic neoplasm. This entity is more commonly seen in young individuals in second decade of life. It occurs commonly in the anterior maxillary region usually in association with impacted maxillary canine. Here, a case report in which the tumor occurred at an early age of 8 years (in the first decade of life) and associated with an unerupted first premolar tooth (which is an unusual situation) has been reported. Priority should be made on early diagnosis and proper treatment planning.

The Canalis Sinuosus (CS) is known as an anatomical variation of anterior superior alveolar nerve being a neurovascular bundle. Frequently, the anterior maxillary region receives surgical interventions of different specialties. The knowledge concerning anatomical structures in this region, is crucial to reach predictable and safe surgical procedures. The overlapping of anatomical structures in conventional imaging examinations have a limit in observing neurovascular canal, such as the CS. Thus, Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) images may give a great support in preoperative planning, since it allows the three-dimensional reconstruction of the anatomical details of its structures. In this report, the author describes an implant rehabilitation that may have possibly injured the anterior superior alveolar nerve.

Objectives: The aim of this case report is to report the radiographic features of an internal resorption in maxillary central incisor and to emphasize the benefits of CBCT in this case. Case Report: A 14-year-old male went to Universitas Padjadjaran Dental Hospital with a discoloration of his fracture upper anterior teeth. The anamnesis revealed that the patient had history of a fall in about 6 years ago. Patient didn’t complain about pain when examination happened and wanted to have his teeth treated. Periapical radiograph showed an internal resorption in maxillary central incisor. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to see other findings before determining the treatment plan. Conclusion: Internal resorption gives a characteristic appearance on the radiograph. CBCT modalities provide more information than conventional ones so that the use of this modality is not only to establish a diagnosis, but also can be used in determining the right treatment plan.
