Molar Impactions: Etiology, Implications and Treatment Modalities with Presentation of an Unusual Case

Tooth development results from a complicated multistep interaction between the oral epithelium and the underlying mesenchymal tissue. Abnormal tissue interactions during toothdevelopment may potentially result in ectopic tooth development and eruption. We report a case of unerupted second molar and impacted third molar and an attempt is made to review possible causes of noneruption of teeth and their treatment modalities. It is essential to diagnose and treat eruption disturbances as early as possible because treatment at a later stage is usually more complicated due to the tendency of malocclusion to increase with time and decrease the ability of remaining dentition to adjust

Rehabilitation of Maxillary defect using Removable Maxillary Cast Partial Denture Hollow Prosthesis for managing Mucomycosis patient: A Clinical Case Report

  Introduction: Mucormycosis is the fungal infection which especially affects immunocompromised patients. Case Report: In this case report, prosthetic rehabilitation of maxillary defect due to past mucormycosis in an uncontrolled diabetic patient was discussed by means of lightweight prosthesis by attaching a hollow occlusal shim to cast partial denture framework as absence of alveolar ridge on the defect side tends to increase the weight of the prosthesis which would have compromised the retention of the prosthesis. Conclusion: This technique is simple, economical and less time-consuming

Rehabilitation of Severely Attrited Teeth Using Full Crown, Onlay, Endocrown & Buccal Half Crown

<p>A 37 year old male patient came to the department with chief complaint of rapid wear of his dentition and sensitivity in #16. Intra-oral and radiographic examination revealed generalised attrition of teeth with freeway space no more than 2mm; Root canal treated #35, #36, #37. Missing #46, #47  </p><p>Treatment plan - fabrication of vertical stops in the form of various indirect restorations and RPD fabrication wrt #46, #47 followed by soft splint fabrication</p&gt

Rehabilitation of Partially Edentulous Mandibular Arch With Claspless Cast Partial Denture

<p>A 55-year-old female patient came to the department with existing maxillary removable partial denture and Kennedy's class I modification I situation in lower arch. </p&gt

Restoration of An Endodontically Treated Tooth With Endocrown

<p> A 45 year old male patient reported to the department of prosthodontics for crown after Root canal treatment. Various treatment options for such cases include full veneer crown, partially bonded restoration, post and core followed by full veneer crown, or endocrown . Intraoral examination revealed inadequate interocclusal space and adequate enamel structure all around for bonding, so endocrown was suggested to the patient. Endocrown preparation design included 2-3mm cuspal reduction with supra gingival butt margins, 4mm intrapulpal depth, 6-8° internal taper of the pulpal chamber, and flat pulpal floor. Final impression was made with addition silicone. Endocrown was fabricated in Lithium Disilicate(Emax) and was cemented with Rely X 200 self adhesive resin cement.</p&gt
