Abstract: Midline Diastema is one of the most common forms of malocclusion seen frequently in the midst of the maxillary central incisors. It may or may not be present with generalized anterior spacing. The etiology for the diastema is considered to be multifactorial. Spacings in anterior region lead to an unpleasant smile, impairment of phonetics, and difficulty in maintaining good oral hygiene. These spacings can be managed either by surgical, orthodontic, periodontal, restorative, and prosthodontic procedures or by a combination of procedures to achieve patient's esthetic and functional requirements. Recent advances in direct dental composite resin, give dentist an advantage to perform minimal invasive esthetic dentistry which is conservative and economical. This case report describes direct aesthetic midline diastema closure with direct composite technique...

Abstract: Break in continuity of bone due to injury from an external force lead to trauma. Mandible fractures have a vital place within the injuries of the other bones of the oral and maxillofacial system. Management of mandibular fractures involves cosmetic and functional aspects such as chewing, speaking, and swallowing. Parasymphyseal fractures are most common form of mandible fractures. They involve the breach in continuity of mandible leading to masticatory and occlusal problems due to the biomechanical forces. The purpose of this case report is to share the experience of surgical treatment of mandible fracture during COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract: Maxillary anterior teeth are the most commonly affected teeth in case of a dental trauma. Emergency management of fractured fragment is necessary, for retaining its biological, functional and esthetic requirement. Various treatment modalities are available for treating a fractured case, such as – composite resin restoration, fractured fragment reattachment or extraction, followed by implant. Amongst all options, immediate agglutination of original fractured tooth fragment is a good alternative option in the scope of emergency treatment. In this case presentation, endodontic management followed by esthetic rehabilitation of a complicated crown fracture was done successfully with a favourable outcome

Abstract: Introduction-The incidence of eyelid tumors is increasing[1-5] . Eyelid tumors thus form an important part of ophthalmology practice, and are by far the most common neoplasms encountered in ophthalmic practice. Tumors of eyelids are common in people of both sexes and all age groups representing more than 90% of ophthalmic tumors[6] . Most of the tumors are diagnosed clinically. The treatment depends on the site, extent of spread and invasiveness of the tumor. Fortunately majority of these cases are either inflammatory or non-malignant tumors Aim:to study the clinical and histopathological features of eyelid tumors in Bundelkhand region Material and Methods: A.....
