Desmoplastic Ameloblastoma: A Case Report Abstract Ameloblastoma is the most common odontogenic tumor of epithelial tissue origin. There are various types of Ameloblastomas. In that, Desmoplastic ameloblastoma is one of the rare variant of ameloblastoma. Because of its rare occurrence, exact nature of the lesion yet to know. Hence nature of the Desmoplastic ameloblastoma need to be highlighted. We report a case of desmoplastic ameloblastoma in a 45-year-old female with a painless swelling in…

research, some of which has led to surprising discoveries. For example, bones have been found to be one of few tissues that can repair itself without forming scars (Marsell and Einhorn 2011). In this paper, we will discuss the process of human bone reparation and recent advances in this field, specifically about bone grafts and stem cell research. Bone reparation begins with a fracture of the osseous…

effective with pockets depth of 5-7mm. The goal of the procedure is not pocket elimination but healing the periodontal pocket with minimum tissue lost. The modified Widman flap requires three incisions to separate the pocket lining from the tooth surface. The initial incision dissects the pocket epithelium and portions of the subepithelial connective tissue. The gingiva is then reflected using the elevator, but only to the extent that the alveolar crest can be visualized. The second incision is…

1.1 Overview Musculocutaneous flaps, is one of many flaps used in reconstructive surgery, it is a segment of tissue transplanted to a defected area while maintaining its own and/or original blood supply. Musculocutaneous flaps encompass skin, subcutaneous tissue, fat, and muscle, which can be harvested from; inguinal area, dorsal area, forearm, pectoral region, scapular region and latissimus dorsi. During this thesis presentation, I will focus on the different types of flaps in…

• Describe ossification in fetal development. During development, the fetal bones are made up of cartilaginous tissue, which is like osseous tissue, except it is more flexible. The absence of calcium salts in its intercellular spaces makes it less dense. As development continues, the process of the depositing of calcium salts into the cartilaginous tissue occurs, and continues throughout their life. Ossification is the gradual replacement of cartilage and its intercellular substance by bone…

Immediately and after three days of its application, CS did not show to cause more osteonecrosis on osseous bed of monocortical defects than saline solution. However, after three days, amount of blood clot was significant more for control specimens (p = 0,019).Ten days after applications, amount of bone neoformation was not different between CS and saline…

and compact depending on the size and distribution of the spaces. In general, around eighty per cent of the skeleton is compact bone and twenty per cent is spongy bone (Tortoar and Derrickson, 2009). There are two types of bone tissues; compact and spongy. Compact bone tissue is hard and dense; it provides strength, support and protection. It forms the outer layer of all bones and most of the shaft of long bones such as the femur. Compact bone looks like honeycomb when examined microscopically…

remodeled. Include the cells and hormones involved in the process. • Bone remodeling is essentially a lifelong process. The mature bone tissue is removed and replaced the new bone tissue. This promotes healthy bones and can also reshape the bones from injuries like fractures. Osteoblasts secrete new bone tissue while osteoclasts break down the old bone tissues. The body signals the correct amount of growth through parathyroid and growth hormones as well as vitamin D, steroids, and calcitonin.…

Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva, also know as FOP, has been of peculiar interest to those who have happened to stumble upon it. FOP is a condition in which soft tissue permanently transforms into bone over time. This abnormal growth is not limited to a particular area of the body but forms in muscles, tendons ligaments, and other connective tissue. This fatal disease, in essence, traps “the body in a prison of bone” (Massey). FOP is a very rare and unusual genetic disease and is “caused…

like pain relief should be done before any other procedures. Then steps to control any active dental disease like caries or periodontal disease should be done. This includes oral hygiene instructions, scaling and root planning flap surgery, Guided Tissue Regeneration or gingival grafting , restorations & correction of defective restorations, root canal treatment etc.…
