ABSTRACT While impaction of tooth is widespread and common, multiple impacted teeth by itself is a rare condition which often is found in association with syndromes and also rarely reported in the literature. In some cases, however, impaction of multiple teeth is not accompanied by a fixed complex of symptoms. A 51- year-old male reported to our clinic with pain and sensitivity of his maxillary right last molar and mandibular anteriors respectively. IOPA and panoramic views revealed 4 impacted teeth in mandible (bilateral cuspids and I bicuspids) and 6 impacted teeth in maxilla (bilateral cuspids, I and II bicuspids). A total of 10 permanent teeth were impacted. In our case medical and family history along with extraoral examination were not suggestive of any syndrome or metabolic disorder. The rareness is the bilateral symmetrical pattern of impaction. How to cite this article Joyce S, Mathias V, Rao BHS.

Multiple impacted permanent teeth is a rare finding and often associated with systemic diseases or some rare syndromes. This article reports two Iranian cases with multiple impacted teeth without systemic disease or syndromes. The first patient, a 17-year-old male, had 18 unerupted teeth and 9 unerupted supernumerary teeth. The second patient, a 16-year-old female, had 14 unerupted teeth. In these cases, an interdisciplinary approach between orthodontist, oral surgeon and prosthodontist is required to achieve optimum facial aesthetics and functional occlusion.

Introduction: Impacted teeth is complex anomaly of teeth eruption that requires a balanced approach not only in the differential diagnosis of its forms, but choice of rational methods of treatment. The aim: Optimization of the tactics of orthodontic-surgical treatment of patients with impacted teeth based on the development and implementation of computed tomographic indices (KT) and photometric indices (FM) of opening of surgical access (OSA) to crowns of impacted teeth Materials and methods: The results of treatment of 48 patients with delay of permanent teeth eruption have been analyzed. For an objective assessment of treatment results, a group of 24 (aged from 9 to 19 years old ) was formed. All 24 patients had typical clinical situation. Results: Orthodontic correction of patients envisaged, first of all, the elimination of obstacles in the way of teeth eruption, if necessary to provide space in dental arch and simultaneous treatment of associated bite malocclusions. Surgical exposure of impacted tooth crown was carried out and at the same time a triangular shaped guiding channel was formed, base of channel was at the impacted tooth and its angle finished into the dental arch. Precise dimensions and depth of the channel were preliminary planed on computed tomography slices with 3D reconstruction. Mean values of CT width (7,13±0,54mm), and length (6,42±0,78mm) of OSA and CT index (130,79±8,19%) of OSA to impacted teeth crowns were determined. Conclusion: To improve the quality of diagnosis and optimization of methodological approaches to treatment of patients with teeth impaction, we have proposed CT and FM OSA indices to the crowns of impacted teeth. The developed indices serve as specific reference points for optimization of diagnostic process, for reducing of probability of repeated surgical interventions and choosing the optimal path for instrumental orthodontic treatment of patients with impacted teeth

Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli, a rare condition of unknown etiology, was first described by Kitamura et al. from Japan in 1960. It is characterized by a triad consisting of well-demarcated erythema, hyperpigmentation, and follicular papules. We report the case of a 50-year-old Caucasian male, who had asymptomatic symmetrical facial lesions since the age of 42. His family history was unremarkable. Published erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli cases of the last 10 years are summarized in this report to demonstrate the variability and differences in the clinical presentation of this uncommon diagnosis.

Abstract An impacted or missing permanent tooth can add significant complications to an otherwise straightforward case. When multiple impacted teeth are present, the case complexity increases further. Developing a treatment sequence, determining appropriate anchorage, and planning and executing sound biomechanics can be a challenge. The following case report illustrates a patient reportedly diagnosed with mild scleroderma as an adolescent. He presented for orthodontic treatment as an adult with multiple retained primary teeth and multiple impacted teeth. Diagnosis, treatment planning, and various methods of managing guided eruption of impacted teeth will be discussed. Following orthodontic treatment that required extraction of multiple primary and permanent teeth as well as exposure and ligation of multiple permanent teeth by an oral surgeon, the patient finished with a significantly improved functional and esthetic result.

Non-syndromic oligodontia, the agenesis of six or more teeth, has a prevalence of 0.14–0.25%. Genetic, epigenetic and environmental influences affect expression. Three brothers presented with agenesis of 14, 21 and 23 permanent teeth, respectively. They were medically well, with no relevant family history. Each case presented with caries, microdontia and attritive tooth surface loss. Comprehensive care was delivered in each case by undergraduate dental students. Individualized prevention and stabilization were completed before referral for multidisciplinary long-term planning. Primary dental care practitioners are instrumental in delivering preventive care and stabilizing the dentition in cases of dental anomaly, while sharing care with specialist teams. CPD/Clinical Relevance: An unusual presentation of non-syndromic oligodontia relevant to primary dental care practitioners who are likely to provide the first clinical contact and referral to the wider multidisciplinary team.

Abstract Aim Repair of inguinal hernia is one of the most common operations in general surgery in industrialized countries. Isolated spermatic cord liposarcoma is a very rare soft tissue tumor. Despite standardized diagnostic algorithms for inguinal hernia, it could be difficult to predict such a rare finding. Material and Methods We report a case of inadvertent inguinal liposarcoma excision during hernia surgery in a 72-year-old male patient. Except for polyposis coli there were no further illnesses. Results After a minimal invasive transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) repair of a symptomatic inguinal hernia last year a persistent scrotal swelling developed. Computed tomography (CT) showed a protrusion of fatty tissue into the scrotal sac. Diagnosis of scrotal hernia was made. We performed an open Lichtenstein procedure. The final pathologic examination revealed a highly differentiated liposarcoma. Staging was completed and the case was presented to a multidisciplinary sarcoma tumor board at our institution. As recommended, a inguinal reoperation was performed with wide excision. Conclusions Although a very rare condition, spermatic cord liposarcoma should be considered as a possible differential diagnosis for inguinal hernia surgery.

Introduction: Granulomatous cheilitis is a rare condition, with an unknown etiological pathway, resulting in inflammation of the lips. This case report demonstrates the efficacy of intralesional triamcinolone with this persistent disorder.Case report: A 19-year old man presented with orofacial swelling on the right side for approximately 18 months. Previous treatments of minocycline and metronidazole were unsuccessful. The patient has no other symptoms and an unremarkable family history. A regiment of topical anesthetic and intralesional triamcinolone showed significant improvement.Discussion: This rare condition has many possible contributory factors with very few established treatments. Our patient appeared to present either granulomatous cheilitis or monosymptomatic Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome. Our primary goal was to abate the patient’s symptoms for their comfort, hence the implication of the benzocaine gel.Conclusion: There are various therapeutic methods described, however, we believe intralesional triamcinolone injections with prior application of topical anesthetic to ease discomfort, could be an alternative treatment.

Dental trauma resulting in root fracture is a rare condition that affects up to 7% of permanent teeth, and injury to immature teeth is even rarer. This case report aimed to show the prognosis of a horizontal root-fractured immature maxillary incisor traumatized at the time of eruption. Because of an accident, a 6-year-old boy was referred to our clinic with horizontal root fracture of the permanent maxillary left central incisor associated with an extrusive luxation. The coronal segment was repositioned, and a dental splint was applied for 7 weeks. After 48 months, clinical examination revealed a positive response to electrical pulp testing and an absence color change of the tooth. Continuation of root development and calcification of the coronal pulp space was observed radiographically. It was concluded that fixation of teeth is a conservative treatment for immature teeth with horizontal root fractures, resulting in the pulp vitality and spontaneous healing with no other treatment.   How to cite this article: Erkmen Almaz M, Şaroğlu Sönmez I, Akbay Oba A.
