Dyskeratosis congenita (DC) is an uncommon disease characterized by nail dystrophy, cutaneous hyperpigmentation, leukoplakia, pancytopenia, and malignant transformation. There can be some oral and dental changes such as oral leukoplakia, increase in tooth decay, hypodontia, thinning of enamel layer, aggressive periodontitis, intraoral brown pigmentation, missing tooth, taurodontism, and blunted roots. Most of cases belong to dermatology or pediatrics department. There are few reports about dentistry. The aim of this report is to lay emphasis on this fatal syndrome among dentists about the multisystem findings and oro-dental changes. Thus, this information may aid dentists in early diagnosis. A case of 21-year-old male diagnosed with DC is reported.

A dental implant is the most accepted treatment option to replace the badly decayed tooth or missing tooth. The jumping gap left after the placement of the implant in the socket will require augmentation of bone graft material. In this case report, the extracted root stumps are used as an autogenous tooth graft material after its preparation. And PRF is mixed with graft material for additive advantage. So, the present case report discusses the feasibility of the use of autogenous tooth graft material along with PRF for the better osseointegration of the implant.

Abstract Ameloblastic fibrosarcoma (AFS) is a rare, aggressive malignant odontogenic tumor. AFS is seen most frequently in second and third decades of life. We are reporting a case of a low grade AFS in a 21-year-old male complaining of a painless swelling in the right side of the maxilla. The patient was treated with surgical excision followed by radiotherapy, which is considered the most effective approach for most of soft tissue sarcomas. AFS has a high-reported recurrence rate (up to 37%); therefore, long-term surveillance for recurrence is crucial.

Abstract BackgroundThe loss of anterior tooth leads to a volumetric deficit of soft and hard tissues, which causes an altered topography. This localized alveolar ridge defect in turn complicates the prosthetic rehabilitation and un-esthetic result might lead to patient’s social stigma. Such defects can be corrected by either soft or hard tissue augmentation, along with esthetic prosthesis.Case presentationThis case report describes the augmentation of the sub-epithelial soft tissue graft to rebuild the lost gingival contour for prosthetic rehabilitation missing tooth in esthetic region. The surgical “trap door” approach is explained in detail along with procedure to introduce innovative E pontic design in prosthesis.ConclusionThe ultimate goal of any prosthetic treatment is to enhance esthetics of patient thus aiding in his/her psychological health along with functional stabilization of the compromised arch. The periodontal surgery with gingival friendly prosthetic design increases esthetic outcome of the treatment.

AbstractImmediate loading of dental implant in the anterior tooth region has been a growing trend and eliminates the compromised esthetics, function, discomfort, and inconvenience associated with traditional two-stage implant procedures. This case report presents the clinical application of implant placement with immediate loading using leukocyte-platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) in the anterior esthetic region.The implant was planned to rehabilitate in the anterior missing tooth region. As per the patient’s desire, the implant was immediately loaded and L-PRF membrane was placed around the implant under local anesthesia on the day of surgery.The use of L-PRF for the maintenance of crestal bone and soft tissue at the implant sites provided an adequate clinical condition for better esthetics.
