Longitudinal Fractures

Trauma may result in craze lines on the enamel surface, one or more fractured cusps of posterior teeth, cracked tooth syndrome, splitting of posterior teeth, and vertical fracture of root. Out of these, management of some fractures is of great challenge and such teeth are generally recommended for extraction. Literature search reveals attempts to manage such fractures by full cast crown, orthodontic wires, and so forth, in which consideration was given to extracoronal splinting only. However, due to advancement in materials and technologies, intracoronal splinting can be achieved as well. In this case report, longitudinal fractures in tooth #27, tooth #37, and tooth #46 had occurred. In #27, fracture line was running mesiodistally involving the pulpal floor resulting in a split tooth. In teeth 37 and 46, fractures of the mesiobuccal cusp and mesiolingual cusp were observed, respectively. They were restored with cast gold inlay and full cast crown, respectively. Longitudinal fracture of 27 was treated with an innovative approach using intracanal reinforced composite with Ribbond, external reinforcement with an orthodontic band, and full cast metal crown to splint the split tooth.

Persistent Inflammation

Periodontal disease is a disease characterized by inflammation of the gingiva, loss of attachment, and damage to the alveolar bone. Bone loss caused by periodontitis may lead to tooth mobility which causes discomfort during mastication, difficulty in maintaining oral hygiene, and persistent inflammation which results in tooth loss. Splinting is a treatment to stabilize a tooth that is experiencing mobility due to periodontal problems. The most common alternative is the use of a fiber reinforced composite material that bonds to the tooth surface. Fiber works functionally, has good aesthetics, and can improve tooth stability due to mobility that occurs due to bone loss. However, in practice fiber splint also has the potential to fail due to several micro mechanisms. One of them was found in this case report. The following case report is regarding the use of a fiber reinforced composite splinting on lower anterior teeth involving two posterior teeth.

Abstract In patients refusing implant surgery for psychological reasons, when minimal tooth reduction is desired, a fiberreinforced composite inlay fixed partial denture (IFPD) can be used to replace missing teeth. In comparison to other restorative systems this conservative approach carries a lower risk of pulp exposure and/or periodontal inflammation, maintaining the health of supporting tissues. The purpose of this case report is to describe the clinical procedure for fabricating an IFPD with a pre-impregnated glass fiber system and a hybrid composite. Fiber-reinforced composite, in combination with adhesive techniques, appears promising for an IFPD. Further clinical investigation will be required to provide additional information on this technique. Citation Rappelli G, Coccia E.

Introduction. Orthodontic treatment of Class II Division 1 (II/1) malocclusions in adults can be challenging since skeletal effects are limited. Possible treatment options are orthodontic camouflage or orthognatic surgery, in severe cases. The aim of this paper was to present a successful management of Class II malocclusion in an adult patient using temporary anchorage devices (TADs). Case report. After detailed clinical examination, study models and cephalometric analysis, a 26 years old patient was diagnosed with Class II malocclusion, an overjet of 12 mm, congenitally missing tooth 41 and midline shifted to the right in upper dental arch. In prior orthodontic treatment, patient had upper premolars extracted. Posterior teeth in upper left quadrant were shifted mesially. The camouflage treatment was considered, using temporary anchorage devices (TADs) to distalize posterior teeth on the left side, and gain space for incisor retraction and midline correction in upper dental arch. Results. Using TADs as additional anchorage in anterior region and coil spring for molar distalization, the space was made for tooth 23, midline correction and incisor retraction. After 40 months, a satisfactory result was achieved, overjet and midline correction, class I canines occlusion and class II molar occlusion. Conclusion. Class II/1 malocclusion in adults can be successfully treated using TADs. The success depends on the severity of malocclusion and patient cooperation.

Objective To describe a possible case of capecitabine-induced myopericarditis in a patient at the Cardio-Oncology Clinic in Calgary, AB. Design A literature search and adverse drug reaction assessment with the Naranjo tool was conducted. Results A 39-year-old male with recurrent locally advanced rectal adenocarcinoma presented two days after adjuvant treatment with capecitabine and oxaliplatin complaining of intermittent, severe interscapular pain. Based on symptoms, laboratory investigations, and imaging, the patient was diagnosed with acute myopericarditis. Management included aspirin, colchicine, and discontinuing adjuvant chemotherapy. A literature review revealed one case report of capecitabine-induced myopericarditis; however, more data were found regarding the cardiotoxicity of fluorouracil, for which capecitabine is a pro-drug. No case reports were found for oxaliplatin. Conclusion Due to the timeline of capecitabine administration, symptom onset, and improvement upon medication discontinuation, capecitabine is the probable cause of the myopericarditis. Although rare, it is important to consider the possibility of myopericarditis in patients receiving a fluoropyrimidine who present with cardiovascular symptoms.

Occlusal Disharmony

Mandibular accessory condyle is rare. Literature search found most of the accessory condyles to arise from the mandibular coronoid process due to hyperactivity of attached temporalis muscle. Although neoplastic growth at mandibular coronoid mimicking an accessory condyle also been cited. Absence of report in recent publications regarding accessory mandibular condyle arising from the main mandibular condyle makes this anomali extremely rare. The present case report is about a true accessory mandibular condyle which caused the patient facial and occlusal disharmony. A 3D computerized tomographic imaging ascertained the exact location of the accessory condyle, its origin and resting position of the accessory and the main condylar head. The facial and occlusal disharmony settled completely within a short postoperative time following surgical intervention and mild elastic traction.Delta Med Col J. Jan 2016 4(1): 45-50
