  • The treatment of Class II non-extraction cases, especially when premolar space is lost due to premature loss of the deciduous molars, usually requires distal movement of the maxillary molars. The Jones jig appliance is a non-compliant intraoral appliance and is effective for the distalization of the maxillary molars. It has unfavorable side-effects, however, so caution is needed to adjust the appliance and select appropriate cases. We reported four cases in which maxillary molar distalizations were concomitant with the alignment of palatally erupted premolars.

  • Delayed eruption and abnormal morphology of the primary incisors following intubation may be due to follicular displacement and localized trauma caused by the process of intubation. Result of such damage included palatal groove formation, defective incisors and acquired clefts. This clinical report presents effect of intubation on the primary dentition of premature low-birth-weight children prior to tooth eruption.

  • Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the ability of two new calcium silicate-based pulp-capping materials (Biodentine and BioAggregate) to induce healing in a rat pulp injury model and to compare them with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). Materials and Methods: Eighteen rats were anesthetized, cavities were prepared and the pulp was capped with either of ProRoot MTA, Biodentine, or BioAggregate. The specimens were scanned using a high-resolution micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) system and were prepared and evaluated histologically and immunohistochemically using dentin sialoprotein (DSP). Results: On micro-CT analysis, the ProRoot MTA and Biodentine groups showed significantly thicker hard tissue formation (p < 0.05). On H&E staining, ProRoot MTA showed complete dentin bridge formation with normal pulpal histology. In the Biodentine and BioAggregate groups, a thick, homogeneous hard tissue barrier was observed. The ProRoot MTA specimens showed strong immunopositive reaction for DSP. Conclusions: Our results suggest that calcium silicate-based pulp-capping materials induce favorable effects on reparative processes during vital pulp therapy and that both Biodentine and BioAggregate could be considered as alternatives to ProRoot MTA.

  • Cornelia de Lange syndrome(CdLS) is a well-described multiple malformation syndrome typically involving proportionate small stature, developmental delay, specific facial features, major malformations, and behavioral abnormalities. Dental issues include micrognathia, crowding of teeth, small teeth, absent teeth, poor oral hygiene, and periodontal disease. We present a case of CdLS in a 10-year-old girl. Micrognathia, crowding of teeth, and bifid uvula are the characteristic features of this case. Dental treatments for this child including preventive and restorative procedures were performed under outpatient general anesthesia.
