RESUMO
Facial pain is one of the symptoms of temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) but can be associated with other pathological conditions. The present study retrospectively evaluated the occurrence of nonarticular incidental findings in panoramic radiographs in a group of patients with painful TMDs. Outpatients with a diagnosis of TMD were included and distributed into three groups: arthralgia, myalgia or arthralgia and myalgia, according to the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC/TMD). Nonarticular incidental findings of their panoramic radiographs were classified in relation to pathological, dental and endodontic status. The dependency relationships among the variables were analyzed using the likelihood test. Sixty patients (38 women and 22 men; mean age: 36.9 years) were evaluated. There was a predominance of arthralgia plus disc displacement (43.4 %), followed by myopain plus arthralgia and disc displacement (38.3 %) and myopain (18.3 %). Pathologic radiographic changes such as bone loss, caries, maxillary sinus opacification and periapical lesions were frequent. Dental alterations such as the absence and altered position of teeth and impacted teeth were frequent. Endodontic changes such as periapical lesions with or without endodontic treatment were frequent. There was no significant difference between groups except for gyroversion. The incidental findings were compatible with caries, sinusitis, impacted tooth and periapical lesion, which may be associated with orofacial pain and could potentially be superimposed on the initial diagnosis, although this hypothesis was discarded. Findings such as the absence and altered position of teeth were also frequent, which may represent occlusal factors associated with TMDs.
El dolor orofacial es uno de los síntomas de los trastornos temporomandibulares (TTM), pero puede estar asociado con otras afecciones patológicas. El presente estudio evaluó retrospectivamente la aparición de hallazgos incidentales no articulares a través de ortopantomografías en un grupo de pacientes con TTM dolorosas. Se incluyeron pacientes con diagnóstico de TTM y se distribuyeron en tres grupos: artralgia, mialgia o artralgia y mialgia, de acuerdo con los criterios de diagnóstico para los trastornos temporomandibulares (DC/TMD). Los hallazgos incidentales no articulares de las ortopantomografias se clasificaron en relación al estado patológico, dental y endodóncico. Las relaciones de dependencia entre las variables se analizaron mediante la prueba de probabilidad. Fueron evaluados 60 pacientes (38 mujeres y 22 hombres; edad media: 36,9 años). Hubo predominio de artralgia más desplazamiento de disco (43,4 %), seguido de mialgia más artralgia y desplazamiento de disco (38,3 %) y mialgia (18,3 %). Las alteraciones radiográficas patológicas como pérdida ósea, carie dentaria, opacificación del seno maxilar y lesiones periapicales fueron frecuentes. Entre las alteraciones dentales, las impactaciones, malposiciones o ausencias dentarias fueron frecuentes. Entre las alteraciones endodóncicas, las lesiones periapicales frecuentes. No hubo diferencias significativas entre los grupos, excepto para la girosversión dentaria. Los hallazgos incidentales fueron compatibles con carie dentaria, sinusitis, diente impactado y lesión periapical, lo que podría estar asociado con el dolor orofacial y así estar sobrepuesto en el diagnóstico inicial, aunque esta hipótesis fue descartada. Hallazgos como la ausencia y la posición alterada de los dientes también fueron frecuentes, lo que puede representar factores oclusales asociados con TTM.

Stafne bone defect (SBD) is a bone cavity in the lingual surface of the mandible normally filled by salivary gland tissue. In conventional radiographs, SBD typically resembles a radiolucent unilocular lesion with welldefined margins, localized under the inferior alveolar canal. The diagnosis of SBD is often incidental due to the asymptomatic nature. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of SBDs in a Brazilian population and to describe the radiographic features of the cases reported. This retrospective study evaluated 17,180 digital panoramic radiographs of patients with an indication of radiography for dental treatment seen at three centers located in the three Brazilian states. In each center, two researchers evaluated the images for establishment of the consensual diagnosis of SBD. In the case of disagreement, a third researcher was consulted to reach a final consensus. To assess the prevalence of SBDs, sex and age of patients were considered, and SBDs were classified according to their form and location. Data were submitted to descriptive analysis. Among the 17.180 patients, only 15 (0.08 %) had SDB, including 3 women and 12 men. The age range of the patients with SDB was 30-69 years (mean: 49.2). Fourteen cases were located in the posterior region of the mandibular body and one case in the ascending ramus. Stafne bone defect is a rare developmental anomaly that more commonly affects middle-aged men. The condition has a typical radiographic appearance and panoramic radiography is a valuable tool for its diagnosis.
El defecto óseo de Stafne (DOS) es una cavidad ósea en la superficie lingual de la mandíbula, normalmente llena de tejido glandular salival. En las radiografías convencionales, el DOS generalmente se asemeja a una lesión unilocular radiotransparente con bordes bien definidos, ubicada debajo del canal alveolar inferior. El diagnóstico de DOS a menudo es accidental debido a su naturaleza asintomática. El objetivo de este estudio fue investigar la prevalencia de DOS en una población brasileña y describir las características radiográficas de los casos reportados. Este estudio retrospectivo evaluó 17.180 radiografías panorámicas digitales de pacientes con indicación radiográfica para tratamiento dental atendidos en tres centros ubicados en tres estados brasileños. En cada centro, dos investigadores evaluaron las imágenes para establecer un diagnóstico consensuado de DOS. En caso de desacuerdo, se consultó a un tercer investigador para llegar a un consenso final. Para evaluar la prevalencia de DOS, se consideraron el sexo y la edad de los pacientes, y se clasificaron según su forma y ubicación. Los datos fueron sometidos a análisis descriptivo. Entre los 17.180 pacientes, solo 15 (0,08 %) tenían DOS, incluidos 3 mujeres y 12 hombres. El rango de edad de los pacientes con DOS fue de 30 a 69 años (media: 49,2). Catorce casos se ubicaron en la región posterior del cuerpo mandibular y un caso en la rama ascendente. Los defectos óseos de Stafne son una anomalía rara del desarrollo que afecta más comúnmente a los hombres de mediana edad. La condición tiene una apariencia radiográfica típica y la radiografía panorámica es una herramienta valiosa para su diagnóstico.

Introducción: resulta de interés para médicos y especialistas el conocimiento sobre la incapacidad de la apertura de la cavidad oral debido a coaliciones entre los elementos óseos y fibrosos en la región glenoidea. Objetivo: revisar la literatura sobre las características de esta patología. Desarrollo: en el primer trimestre del año 2006, a fin de realizar una revisión bibliográfica no exhaustiva para localizar la información disponible sobre la anquilosis de la articulación temporomandibular, se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica en Scielo, Medline, Isi Web of Knowlegde y Dialnet, buscando como palabras clave: anquilosis (ankylosis) y articulación temporomandibular (temporomandibular joint). Además de la búsqueda computarizada se realizó una búsqueda manual entre las referencias de los estudios seleccionados. Conclusiones: la anquilosis temporomandibular resulta una entidad clínica compleja, usualmente molesta para los pacientes dada la imposibilidad de alimentarse y nutrirse adecuadamente, además de las deformidades que desde el punto de vista estético afecta la esfera psicológica de las personas aquejadas. Su tratamiento es difícil, no obstante, una atención adecuada minimiza las consecuencias de las complicaciones que pueden aparecer como resultado de la técnica quirúrgica u otros factores no relacionados con ella. Se reconoce que una identificación y tratamiento oportuno del problema puede favorecer los buenos resultados de la conducta médica y la rápida integración del paciente a la sociedad(AU)
Introduction: it is of interest for physicians and specialist's knowledge about the inability of the opening of the oral cavity due to coalitions between the bone and fibrous elements in the glenoid region. Objective: to review the literature on the characteristics of this pathology. Development: in the first quarter of 2006, in order to perform a non-exhaustive literature review to locate the available information on ankylosis of the temporomandibular joint, a literature search was carried out in Scielo, Medline, Isi Web of Knowlegde and Dialnet, searching as key words: ankylosis (ankylosis) and temporomandibular joint (temporomandibular joint). In addition to the computerized search, a manual search was made among the references of the selected studies. Conclusions: the temporomandibular ankylosis is a complex clinical entity, usually annoying for patients given the impossibility of feeding and nourishing adequately, in addition to the deformities that from the aesthetic point of view affects the psychological sphere of the people afflicted. Its treatment is difficult, nevertheless, an adequate attention minimizes the consequences of the complications that can appear as a result of the surgical technique or other factors not related to it. It is recognized that an identification and timely treatment of the problem can favor the good results of medical behavior and the rapid integration of the patient into society(AU)

ABSTRACT: Periapical cyst originates from an inflammatory reaction in the body that occurs due to a long-term endodontic aggression. It is more prevalent in caucasian male, during the third decade of life, in the anterior portion of the maxilla. They are commonly radiographic findings, due to their asymptomatic aspect. This study reports a Periapical Cyst in the portion corresponding to teeth 21, 22 and 23, which was treated by enucleation of the cyst, apicoectomy and retrograde root filling with Mineral trioxide aggregate (M.T.A) of teeth 21 and 22, filling of the cyst cavity with xenogeneic bone graft GenOx and a collagen membrane Gen-Derm. Observations after three months show good and rapid bone regeneration, periodontal and periapical health of the teeth involved.
RESUMEN: El quiste periapical se origina de una reacción inflamatoria que ocurre debido a una agresión endodóntica a largo plazo. Es más frecuente en el varón caucásico, durante la tercera década de la vida, en la porción anterior del maxilar. Son comúnmente hallazgos radiográficos, debido a su aspecto asintomático. En este estudio informamos acerca de un quiste periapical, en la porción correspondiente a los dientes 21, 22 y 23, que se trató mediante enucleación, apicectomía y relleno de raíz retrógrada con agregado de trióxido mineral (MTA) de los dientes 21 y 22, relleno de la cavidad del quiste con injerto óseo xenogénico Gen-Ox y una membrana de colágeno GenDerm. Las observaciones después de tres meses mostraron una buena y rápida regeneración ósea, con conservación de la salud periodontal y periapical de los dientes involucrados.

RESUMEN: La displasia cleidocraneal (DCC), es un trastorno autosómico dominante poco común, que involucra principalmente a los huesos que se osifican por vía membranosa; afectando el cierre de fontanelas craneales y el desarrollo de las clavículas, además de anomalías dentales y vertebrales. El objetivo de este manuscrito fue reportar el caso de una paciente con DCC que presentó un queratoquiste odontogénico (QQO) intrasinusal. Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 81 años, diagnosticada en su niñez con DDC, que consultó por un desajuste protésico y molestias en relación a la zona del seno maxilar derecho. Clínicamente se observó desajuste de la prótesis y aumento de volumen de márgenes poco definidos en la zona maxilar derecha, color rosa coral; que se extendía por todo el margen hemimaxilar derecho hasta el fondo de vestíbulo; doloroso a la palpación, con un mes de evolución. Se solicitó CBCT, con el que se pudo verificar la presencia de un desarrollo tumoral de contenido similar a dentículos, ubicado en la totalidad del seno maxilar derecho; extendiéndose hasta el piso de la cavidad nasal y orbitaria. Se estableció la hipótesis diagnóstica de "odontoma compuesto". Se le intervino quirúrgicamente, bajo anestesia general, realizándose una excisión de la lesión; la que era de márgenes definidos, con cambios de coloración en tonos oscuros, con la inclusión de tres piezas dentarias; de aspecto maligno. Se logró enucleación completa, dejando remanente óseo limpio. La pieza fue enviada a estudio histopatológico. En informe histopatológico, describió la presencia de una lesion quistica con pared compatible con queratoquiste.
ABSTRACT: Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is an uncommon autosomal dominant disorder that mainly involves bones that ossify via the membrane, affecting the closure of cranial fontanels and the development of the clavicles, as well as presenting dental and vertebral anomalies. The aim of this manuscritpt was to report a case of a patient with CCD who presented an intrasinusal odontogenic keratocyst.We present an 81-year-old female patient, diagnosed with this syndrome in childhood, who comes to our service for a prosthetic misalignment and discomfort of the right maxillary sinus area. Clinically, there was a mismatch of the prosthesis and an increase in the volume of undefined margins under it, coral pink color, which extended all over the right hemimaxillary margin to the bottom of the vestibule, painful on palpation, with a one month evolution. A CBCT was requested, which revealed the presence of a tumor development with content similar to denticles, located in the entire right maxillary sinus, extending to the floor of the nasal and orbital cavity. The diagnostic hypothesis of "compound odontoma" was established. The patient was operated on in the central ward, under general anesthesia performing the excisional biopsy of the lesion, which showed changes in coloration in dark tones, with defined edges, with the inclusion of three teeth showing malignancy aspects. Complete enucleation was achieved, leaving tumor-free clean bone remnant. In a histopathological report, the presence of a keratocyst wall was described, which is not very compatible given the appearance of the lesion, the presence of the dental pieces included in it, and the behavior of the lesion.

ABSTRACT: Florid osseous dysplasia (FOD) is an extensive form of osseous dysplasia where normal trabecular bone is substituted by fibrous connective tissue and amorphous mineralized tissue. Usually, the lesions are mainly asymptomatic and the patients should be followed with clinical and imaging examination, requiring no intervention. Nevertheless, due to the poor vascularization of the lesion and to local trauma, secondary infections and osteomyelitis may occur. Patients may present with pain, mucosal ulceration, lesion exposure in the oral cavity, fistula and swelling. In such cases, the correct diagnosis and management of the lesion is decisive to reestablish patient's health and quality of life. The aim of this article is to present a case of complicating secondary chronic osteomyelitis treated successfully with conservative intervention. A 68-year-old black female patient reported a "swelling of the gums" that was present for eleven years, with episodes of periodic pain and swelling. On physical examination, a papule with suppuration in the alveolar mucosa in the right side of the mandible was observed. Panoramic radiography and CBCT showed a mixed lesion surrounded by sclerotic bone. The patient was diagnosed with chronic osteomyelitis in association with FOD and treated with antibiotic therapy together with surgical curettage. The incidence, etiophatology, differential diagnosis, treatment and prevention of secondary osteomyelitis associated with FOD are discussed in the light of literature. This information might assist the dentists while choosing the best treatment options for similar cases.
RESUMEN: La displasia ósea florida (DOF) es una forma de displasia ósea donde el hueso trabecular normal es sustituido por tejido conectivo fibroso y tejido mineralizado amorfo. En general, las lesiones son de origen asintomático y los pacientes deben ser seguidos con el examen clínico. Sin embargo, debido a la pobre vascularización de la lesión y al trauma local, pueden producirse lesiones secundarias y osteomielitis. Los pacientes pueden presentarse con dolor, ulceración mucosa, lesión de exposición en la cavidad oral, fístula y edema. En estos casos, el correcto diagnóstico y tratamiento de la lesión es decisivo para reestabilizar la salud y la calidad de la vida. El objetivo de este artículo consistió en presentar un caso de complicación secundaria crónica de osteomielitis tratados con tratamiento conservador. El paciente, negro, de 68 años de edad, consulta por "hinchazón de las encías" que se presentó durante once años, con episodios de dolor. En el examen intraoral, se observó una pápula con supuración en la mucosa alveolar en el lado derecho de la mandíbula. La radiografía panorámica y CBCT mostraron una lesión mixta rodeada de hueso esclerótico. El paciente fue diagnosticado con osteomielitis crónica en asociación con DOF y fue tratado con tratamiento antibiótico junto con curetaje quirúrgico. La incidencia, la etiopatología, el diagnóstico diferencial, el tratamiento y la prevención de la osteomielitis secundaria asociada con DOF se discuten a la luz de la literatura. Esta información puede ayudar a los dentistas a elegir las mejores opciones de tratamiento para casos similares.

Objetivo: apresentar um caso clínico de paciente com cisto ósseo solitário em mandíbula e sua evolução após o tratamento de exploração e curetagem cirúrgica por meio de achados radiográficos. Caso clínico: paciente do sexo masculino, 45 anos, compareceu à clínica da Faculdade de Estudos Administrativos Fead. Ao exame clínico, os tecidos se apresentavam dentro dos padrões de normalidade e ao exame radiográfico observou-se área radiolúcida unilocular, limites regulares e bem definidos em região anterior de mandíbula entre ápices dos dentes 33, 32, 31, 41 e 42, sem deslocamento desses. Para confirmação do diagnóstico, além do exame clínico, foi necessário realizar a tomografia de feixe cônico e exploração cirúrgica. Após a exploração cirúrgica foi realizada a curetagem das paredes ósseas e a proservação do caso para acompanhar a sua evolução. Considerações finais: por ser uma lesão de comportamento não agressivo, responde bem a este tipo de tratamento, sendo notável sua melhora durante o período de acompanhamento.(AU)
Objective: To present a clinical case report of a patient with solitary bone cyst of the mandible and its evolution after exploration and surgical curettage treatment through radiographic findings. Case report: A 45-year-old male patient attended the clinic of the School of Administrative Studies - FEAD. The clinical examination showed normal tissues and the radiographic examination showed unilocular radiolucent area and regular and well-defined boundaries in the anterior mandible between the apexes of teeth 33, 32, 31, 41, and 42, without displacement. To confirm the diagnosis, in addition to the clinical examination, cone beam tomography and surgical exploration were required. After the surgical exploration, bone wall curettage and case proservation were performed to monitor the evolution. Final considerations: Considering it is a non-aggressive lesion, it responds well to this type of treatment, with considerable improvement during follow-up.(AU)

Objetivo: relatar o caso de um paciente idoso portador de defeito ósseo de Stafne. Relato de caso: paciente do sexo masculino, 74 anos de idade, foi atendido na Clínica de Odontologia da União Metropolitana de Educação e Cultura, e, após realização de radiografia panorâmica, foi evidenciada uma imagem sugestiva do defeito, sendo o paciente orientado a realizar a tomografia computadorizada fan beam para a confirmação diagnóstica. Considerações finais: o defeito ósseo de Stafne é definido como uma depressão lingual na mandíbula, de forma arredondada ou ovoide, que varia de 1 a 3 cm em diâmetro, com margens ósseas muito densas e bem definidas. Apresenta-se, radiograficamente, como uma imagem radiolúcida, circunscrita e unilocular na região posterior da mandíbula, abaixo do canal mandibular. É geralmente detectado em exames radiográficos de rotina, como a radiografia panorâmica, e a confirmação do diagnóstico geralmente é obtida pela realização da tomografia computadorizada fan beam ou de cone beam, por conta da obtenção de imagens que possibilitam a avaliação tridimensional, descartando, assim, outros tipos de lesões. Por se tratar de uma variação anatômica, a conduta é proservar o caso. (AU)
Objective: the objective of the following work was reported in the case of an elderly male patient. Clinical case: male patient, 74 years-old, who was attended at the Dentistry Clinic of the Metropolitan Union of Education and Culture, and after a panoramic radiograph, an image suggestive of the defect was evidenced. patient oriented to perform a Fan Beam Computed Tomography scan for diagnostic confirmation. Final considerations: the Stafne bone defect is defined as a lingual depression in the mandible, rounded or ovoid, ranging from 1 to 3 cm in diameter, with very dense and well defined bone margins. It presents, radiographically, as a radiolucent, circumscribed and unilocular image in the posterior region of the mandible, below the mandibular canal. It is usually detected in routine radiographic examinations as a panoramic radiograph, being a confirmation of the diagnosis obtained by performing the Fan Beam Computed Tomography or Cone Beam, due to obtaining images that allow a three-dimensional evaluation, thus discarding other types of injuries. Because it is an anatomical variation, the conduct is to preserve the case. (AU)

Abstract Giant Osteosclerotic Lesions (GOLs) are a group of rarely reported intraosseous lesions. Their precise diagnosis is important since they can be confused with malignant neoplasms. Objective This retrospective study aimed to record and analyze the clinical and radiographic Giant Osteosclerotic Lesions (GOLs) detected in the maxillomandibular area of patients attending to our institution. Materials and Methods: Informed consent from the patients was obtained and those cases of 2.5 cm or larger lesions with radiopaque or mixed (radiolucid-radiopaque) appearance located in the maxillofacial bones were selected. Assessed parameters were: age, gender, radiographic aspect, shape, borders, size, location and relations to roots. Lesions were classified as radicular, apical, interradicular, interradicular-apical, radicular-apical or located in a previous teeth extraction area. Additionally, several osseous and dental developmental alterations (DDAs) were assessed. Results Seventeen radiopacities in 14 patients were found and were located almost exclusively in mandible and were two types: idiopathic osteosclerosis and condensing osteitis. GOLs were more frequent in females, and in the anterior and premolar zones. 94.2% of GOLs were qualified as idiopathic osteosclerosis and one case was condensing osteitis. All studied cases showed different osseous and dental developmental alterations (DDAs). The most common were: Microdontia, hypodontia, pulp stones, macrodontia and variations in the mental foramina. Conclusions GOLs must be differentiated from other radiopaque benign and malignant tumors. Condensing osteitis, was considered an anomalous osseous response induced by a chronic low-grade inflammatory stimulus. For development of idiopathic osteosclerosis, two possible mechanisms could be related. The first is modification of the normal turnover with excessive osseous deposition. The second mechanism will prevent the normal bone resorption, arresting the osseous breakdown process.

Abstract Idiopathic Bone Cavity (IBC) or Simple Bone Cyst (SBC) is a non- epithelialized bone cavity with serosanguinous fluid content or empty. There is a literature debate regarding its pathogenesis that remains unclear. The main treatment option is the surgical exploration, although there are successful cases described in the literature in which just a follow-up with clinical and radiographic evaluation was performed. Objective This study aimed to assess the spontaneous resolution of idiopathic bone cavity untreated by surgery. Material and Methods Twenty-one patients diagnosed with surgically untreated IBC were submitted to a follow-up protocol modified from Damante, Guerra, and Ferreira5 (2002). A clinical and radiographic evaluation was performed in 13 patients (13/21), while eight patients (8/21) were only radiographically evaluated. Three observers evaluated the panoramic radiographs of 21 patients and the Kappa test was performed by intra and inter-examiners. Inductive and descriptive statistics were applied to the results. Results Only one patient had a positive response to palpation and percussion of the teeth in the cyst area. Most of the cysts evaluated were rated as 3 (lesion "in involution"), 4 (lesion "almost completely resolved"), or 5 ("completely resolved"). Conclusions We observed progressive spontaneous resolution of IBC. Most cysts were found in the recovery process in different follow-up periods. Patient's follow-up, without surgery, may be considered after the diagnosis based on epidemiological, clinical, and radiographic features of the lesion.

Abstract This study aimed at verifying the correlation among angulation of the articular eminence (AE), shape of the condyle and its degenerative bone diseases (DBDs), according to age and sex, through Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). Five hundred and twenty-eight temporomandibular joints (TMJ) were evaluated. The condyles were classified as: flat, convex, angled and rounded, and the AE angulation was measured. The DBDs evaluated were osteophytes, flattening, erosion, subcortical cysts and spinal sclerosis. There was no difference in the mean angulations in relation to age group (p>0.05). In age groups of 60-69 years (p=0.003) and 70 years or over (p=0.021), the angulation was higher in males. There was an association between DBD and sex (p=0.047), in that the prevalence was higher in females. Differences in AE angles were not observed in condyles with one or no DBDs (p>0.05). However, the presence of two or more DBDs led to a decrease in the angle (p<0.05). Angled condyles showed higher AE angulations than the flat and convex types (p<0.01). In conclusion, the AE inclination is influenced by DBD and condyle shape; an association of two or more bone diseases in the condyle, or its flat or convex anatomy, results in a decrease in the angulation.

Abstract This study aimed at evaluating the validity of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) for assessing mandibular bone quality using the Klemetti classification. The morphology of the endosteal mandibular cortex of 30 (60 hemi-mandibles) postmenopausal women between the ages of 45 and 80 years was evaluated based on the Klemetti classification in panoramic radiographs used as reference images. Afterwards, panoramic reconstruction and cross-sectional slices of CBCT examinations of these patients were analyzed and categorized according to the same classification. All the images were assessed by two oral radiologists. The McNemar-Bowker test compared the agreement between the CBCT images and the reference images. No differences were found between the diagnostic results based on panoramic radiography and panoramic reconstruction. However, the mean scores for the cross-sectional evaluation were higher, and the results, statistically different from the others. Based on the disagreement found between the panoramic radiographs and the CBCT cross-sectional slices, the Klemetti classification is not an adequate means of assessing bone quality with CBCT. On the other hand, the higher values found for the cross-sectional slices could be associated with better visibility on the CBCT images.

In dental practice, impacted third molar teeth are a common finding. The dentists usually remove them if they are associated with some radiographic finding suggestive of a cyst or a tumor or if they cause pain or resorption of the adjacent teeth. It has been found that, in many cases, even the radiographically and clinically asymptomatic impacted mandibular third molars are associated with some pathology. This paper brings into the light two cases with clinically and radiographically normal impacted third molar teeth associated with dentigerous cyst, thus highlighting that the radiographic appearance is not a reliable indicator of the absence or presence of pathology associated with the impacted third molars.

The solitary or traumatic bone cyst (TBC) is an uncommon non-epithelial lined cavity of the jaws. The lesion is mainly diagnosed in young patients most frequently during the second decade of life. The majority of them are located in the mandibular body between the canine and the third molar. Clinically, the lesion is asymptomatic and is often accidentally discovered on routine radiological examination. The definite diagnosis of traumatic cyst can only be determined at surgery. Often, the material for histological examination may be scanty or non-existent. We present a documented case of a solitary bone cyst involving the body of the mandible. A brief review of literature regarding the main characteristics of the lesion is provided.

The objective of the article is to highlight and make people aware of a rare abscess which is often missed or misdiagnosed. As only a few cases have been reported, the authors feel that reporting such a case would help in proper management of the disease. We are presenting a 6.5-year-old male child with 3 weeks history of right facial swelling in the parotid region, with low-grade fever and trismus. Submasseteric abscess is a rare abscess which is often misdiagnosed as a parotid abscess or parotitis. Only a few cases have been reported. The cause is mostly dental in origin. Intravenous antibiotics often fail to alleviate the symptoms as this is a closed space and needs prompt drainage. Therefore, awareness of this complication of dental infections is vital for proper diagnosis and timely management.

Orofacial manifestations of Van der Woude syndrome (VWS) include cleft lip or palate, lower lip pits, hypodontia, hypernasal voice, cleft or bifid uvula, syngnathia, narrow high arched palate, and ankyloglossia. Extraoral manifestations include limb anomalies, popliteal webs, accessory nipples, congenital heart defects, and Hirschsprung disease. We report an interesting case of VWS with characteristic orofacial features along with an unusual additional finding of fusion of primary mandibular left lateral incisor and canine in a 7-year-old boy.

The article is a case report of an unusual manifestation of primary hyperparathyroidism seen in the mandible. Primary hyperparathyroidism is a rare disorder that can present its first symptoms in the jaws. The pre- and post-treatment radiographic features of such cases have only rarely been reported in dental literature. This case report highlights the importance of careful clinical and radiographic examination before commencing root canal treatment.
