INTRODUCTION: The coronal approach gives a broad exposure to the frontal bone, the calvaria, the nasal bones, the orbits, the subcondylar region, the zygoma and the zygomatic arch and gives ideal aesthetic results with less complication. The common craniofacial fractures are Nasal bones (45%), cranial bones (24%), Mandible (13%), Zygoma (13%), Orbital blowout (3%), Maxilla (2%). Common causes of fractures are Road trafc accident, Assault, Industrial accidents, Recreational accidents, Frontal bone fracture. METHOD: The study was carried out for a period of one year from March 2020 to March 2021. The study conducted in St Joseph dental college ELURU in the department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. The age limit for this study was below 30 years. The number of subjects involved in this study was 5. Number of females was 3 and males were 2 in this study. RESULT: Number of female participants in this study was 3 and number of male participants was 2.Number of male participants with coronal incision were 1 and number of participants with pretrichial incision were 2.Out of 2 one for male participant and one for female participant. CONCLUSION: The coronal ap has recently become a preferred approach for access to the craniofacial skeleton and orbit. This method of exposure has become particularly useful with increased indications for rigid internal xation and primary bone grafting in the management of complex facial fractures.

(1) Background: Oronasal communication is described in the scientific literature as a common complication that occurs after a cleft palate surgery. In some cases, it can also be a consequence of oral surgery procedures; the main problem of this type of rare accident is related to the correct healing process and treatment option. (2) Case report: A patient with oronasal communication caused by an unsuccessful attempt of a superior canine odontectomy presented at the Emergency Department of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Hospital, Timișoara. The case management is described from the first consult to one-year follow-up. We consider that this pathology was optimally treated surgically, and the results are more than satisfactory, taking into consideration the high rates of recurrence. (3) Conclusion: This case report can be a useful to a general dentist who is trying to decide whether to perform the canine odontectomy or refer to a specialist surgeon due to the accidents and complications of this procedure.

The purpose of this article is to analyze the incidence, demographic distribution, type, and etiology of all facial fractures treated by the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in A Coruña University Hospital (Spain) from 2001 to 2008. A descriptive and analytic retrospective study evaluated 643 patients treated for facial fracture (excluding nasal and dento-alveolar) by the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in A Coruña University Hospital from January 2001 to December 2008. Five parameters were studied: year of the injury, gender, age, fracture type, and etiology. Six hundred and forty-three patients with 793 fractures were included. Of these, 83.2% were males and 16.8% were females. The patients’ age ranged between 18 months and 89 years, with a mean of 37.6 and a median of 33. The major cause of injury was traffic accidents (27%), followed by assaults (20.5%), accidental traumas (20.1%), sports (11%), syncopes (7.8%), rural accidents (6.1%), industrial accidents (5.1%), and suicide attempts (0.3%). In 1.1% of the patients, it was impossible to verify the etiology. The etiology of facial fractures varies from one country to another, depending on the cultural, environmental, and socioeconomic factors. In our study, the most common cause was traffic accidents, closely followed by assaults. The number of fractures due to traffic accidents has decreased in the last 3 years. Rural accidents accounted for a significantly higher percentage of fractures than that observed in other series. The number of fractures receiving a surgical treatment from 2005 to 2008 has progressively decreased.

Aim The aim of the two audits was to evaluate the success of the two-week rule in the oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) department at the Newcastle General Hospital (NGH) and then subsequently in the oral surgery and oral medicine departments at Newcastle Dental Hospital (NDH). Methods All two-week referrals seen at the NGH over a one-year period were examined retrospectively. An identical subsequent audit was carried out at the NDH over a second one-year period, also retrospectively. Results In the initial audit at the NGH, a total of 63 two-week referrals were received during the one-year period analysed. Of these, 57 (90%) were seen within the appropriate time period, and 60 (95%) conformed to the Department of Health guidelines. Seven (11%) of the 63 referred patients were diagnosed with head and neck cancer, indicating a positive oncology detection rate of 11%. In the later audit at the NDH, 49 urgent referrals were assessed. Forty-three of the 49 referrals (88%) were seen within the appropriate time period and thirty-nine (80%) were compliant with the referring guidelines. Forty-five patients attended for assessment and the resultant positive oncology detection rate for these patients was 7%. In both audits, the patients diagnosed as having positive oncology results all had referrals that were compliant with the Department of Health guidelines. Conclusions Both of these audits indicated that the national guidelines for two-week referrals were usually appropriately followed in the two departments that were audited. However, in the future, further education of referring practitioners should ensure that these guidelines are followed better, making the service provided more efficient for all concerned.

In their previous report, the authors presented observations regarding the long-term application of carbon/carbon implants. After evaluating the good functional and aesthetic results, the effect of the human body on the structure and morphology of the implants was investigated with state of the art methods. An implant retrieved from the body after eight years was compared to implants which were sterilized but not implanted (reference). Carbon and oxygen were the main components of both implants, however, as a result of the interaction with the human body the amount of oxygen increased 3–4 times and phosphorus, sulphur, calcium and iron were detectable as trace elements on the surface. The width of the carbon fibres (5–7 µm) building up the implants was not changed during the interaction with the human body. The surface of the implant retrieved from the human body was covered with a 15–17 µm thick layer, not present on the reference implant, having a similar composition to that of the carbon fibres (high amount of calcium that is typical to bone tissue was not detected). According to these results, the structure and the morphology of the implants were not altered notably by the human body. Orv. Hetil., 2012, 153, 744–750.

Craniofacial Defects

The use of synthetic materials to repair craniofacial defects is increasing today and will increase further in the future. Because of the complexity of the anatomy in the head and neck region, reconstruction and augmentation of this area pose a challenge to the surgeon. This review discusses key facts and applications of traditional reconstruction bone substitutes, also offering comparative information. It then describes the properties and clinical applications of bioactive-glass (B-G) and its variants in oral and maxillofacial surgery, and provides clinical findings. The discussion of each compound includes a description of its composition and structure, the advantages and shortcomings of the material, and its current uses in the field of osteoplastic and reconstructive surgery. With a better understanding of the available alloplastic implants, the surgeon can make a more informed decision as to which implant would be most suitable in a particular patient.

Objectives To assess the level of job satisfaction during BDS course among the new dental graduates according to their views including existing barriers and ways of further improvement. Materials and methods This was a cross sectional type of descriptive study and was carried out for one year. In depth interview were performed using interview schedule among twenty new dental graduates those were very interested and willing to participate in this study. Results Among them 96 new graduates were passed from non-government and 55in government dental colleges. Of them 53.3% were female and 46.7% were male. Satisfaction level on acquired competencies was not in desired level in Oral and maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics and some competencies in prosthodontics. Corresponding teacher, senior doctor and medical officer also by available patient and instrument and materials, good academic environment and good relation with teacher, causes much satisfaction. Main causes of dissatisfaction includes Less availability of the patients and instruments, lack of supervision and feedback in the clinical ward, insufficient practical classes and lack of competent instructors in all level. Conclusion New qualified dentists were more or less satisfied on their acquired competencies in most of the clinical areas. This may be due to having sufficient clinical exposure, experience and teaching time during their undergraduate course. There are several causes of satisfaction and so many causes of dissatisfaction. Co-operative and helpful teachers and senior doctors were very important issue for causing satisfaction. More teacher supervision and more patients for practice is recommended by them.
