Abstract: Background: Achieving the patient satisfaction upon restoring single anterior tooth poses the greatest esthetic challenge for the clinician. Selecting the shade of the restoration depends in part on the material used for the understructure, and there is a wide variety of materials available from to choose. New materials are constantly being introduced by manufacturers. Since there are no studies comparing lithium disilicate and Bio HPP materials we have selected this study to evaluate patient satisfaction and dentist shade match of Bio HPP versus lithium disilicate crowns in anterior esthetic zone. Materials and Methods: twenty-four full coverage crowns (12 in each group) were fabricated for teeth requiring full coverage crowns. Patients were divided into two groups according to the type of material used. Group I: IPS e.max crowns and Group II: Bio HPP crowns.....

Abstract: The maxillofacial fractures represent a major public health problem and cause high patient morbidity and a high cost to the public health system. The zygomatic complex, due to its projected position on the face, is often traumatized. The diagnosis of these fractures is based on clinical findings and complementary imaging exams, playing a very important role in establishing treatment. This study presents a report of a 46-year-old male motorcycle accident victim who sought the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Traumatology Service of the Teresina Emergency Hospital with facial trauma immediately after the accident, presenting pain, difficulties. mouth opening, edema, facial asymmetry, followed by ecchymosis in the periorbital region and loss of zygomatic projection. The clinical and imaging diagnosis was left zygomatic complex fracture, left zygomatic arch and left fronto-orbital.....

Abstract: Introduction: Diagnosis of neck swellings is always been very difficult and challenging. Commonest occurring swellings are lymphoid, thyroid, salivary glands .Apart from these, Lateral neck swellings (LNS) are seen commonly in primary and secondary malignant lesions. Any neck swelling greater than 2cms has 80% chance of being malignant origin. Goitre being most common among benign and Squamous cell carcinoma in malignant. FNAC is the primary diagnostic investigation in cases of LNS. Aims and objectives: The aim of this study is to compare the clinical and pathological diagnosis of lateral neck swellings. To find out incidence of different lateral neck swellings and to find the commonest cause of cervical lymphadenopathy in this study. Materials and methods : The study....

Abstract: Soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is a rare tumour, comprising <1% of all malignancies in the body. Because of the rarity and the myriad imaging features, it can pose diagnostic and management challenges. Imaging of such swellings, including US and MRI, can lead to misdiagnoses and as such lead to delay in proper management of the same. Here, we report a patient presenting with a soft tissue swelling in the left lower limb for over a year. The swelling had persisted with increase in symptoms since then. On initial imaging, including ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging, diagnostic possibilities ranging included granulomatous infection, vascular malformation or a neoplastic aetiology, but the final diagnosis was possible only after wide local excision and histopathological analysis. Advanced imaging, including MRI fails to distinguish between low flow vascular malformations and slow growing soft tissue sarcomas which leaves clinical examination with high index of suspicion as the key in timely diagnosis and management of soft tissue sarcomas

Abstract: The study was conducted to examine the effects of yoga and physical exercise on self concept. One hundred twenty subjects in four groups viz. light exercise group, heavy exercise group, yoga performers group and control group were administered as a measure of self-concept. All the subjects are male in the age range of 18 to 25 years. Data were analyzed by simple ANOVA suitable for multi-group design. Results revealed that the control group had significantly self-concept than the exercise and yoga performing group.

Abstract: Breast abscess remains one of the major problems in both lactating and non-lactating woman worldwide. Incidence ranges from 0.5 to 11%in lactating women. In non-lactating women, the age of incidence is usually around fourth decade of life. Mainstay of treatment would be incision and drainage. In this comparative study of 60cases we are comparing open drainage vs. closed drainage of breast abscess with respect to Post-operative pain, Residual abscess, Duration of hospital, stay, Time required for complete healing and Appearance of scar. Patients were divided in to two groups with each group containing 30patients. Outcome of the study revealed closed drainage to be beneficial to the patient compared to open drainage, since it reduces overall complications and post-operative outcome is better.
Key words: breast abscess, open drainage, closed drainage.

Abstract: Aim of study- This study has been done to analyse and assess the surgical ease and post-operative cosmetic and healing benefits of single transverse mid-cervical incision to perform functional neck dissection. Methods- Our study is a retrospective single centre study including 25 patients operated for a period of nine months diagnosed with Oral cavity Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) with metastatic cervical lymph nodes identified in majority of cases. Total 32 neck dissections were done (21 modified radical neck dissections, 7 selective neck dissections, and 4 radical neck dissections) by application of single mid-cervical transverse incision. Results- Adequate surgical accessibility and comfort was experienced during the entire surgical procedure for complete retrieval of regional cervical lymph nodes from desired levels of neck and involved structures along with primary resections. Minimum post operative complications reported with adequate wound healing with improved function and aesthetics was appreciated.....

Abstract: Background: Gingival Crevicular Fluid (GCF) is the principal target in the search for biomarkers of periodontal disease, because its protein composition may reflect disease pathophysiology. The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the levels of membrane-organizing extension spike protein (Moesin) in GCF of individuals with and without severe chronic periodontitis. Materials and Methods: Forty systemically healthy subjects satisfying the required inclusion criteria were selected and equally divided into two groups: Group A – with no periodontitis and Group B – with severe chronic periodontitis. Periodontal parameters were recorded at baseline. GCF samples were collected and evaluated for Moesin levels in both the groups using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Scaling and root planing were performed in Group.....

Abstract: Ironically called the ""wisdom teeth,‟‟ third molars are commonly blamed for a variety of complicationsand so are advice for extraction. Probably the excessive high rate of asymptomatic third molar extraction in orthodontic patients is due to a lack of reliable and simple predictive tools and unavailability of facts that how orthodontic treatment is going to affect its position.
