However, thickness of the BCB in the
maxillary region is reported to vary according to tooth location, sex, and age (Aktuna Belgin et al., 2017; Adiguzel et al., 2017).
In adult patients with both
maxillary transverse deficiency and retrusion, the general treatment approach is primarily to perform surgically assisted rapid
maxillary expansion (SARME) to correct the transversal problem and then to perform Le Fort I osteotomy to address the anteroposterior deficiency.
Embryological hazards are frequently seen in the region of
maxillary incisors.
In the physical examination, a non-tender, rigid swelling localized on the right
maxillary sinus was identified.
Material and Methods: Consenting three hundred and ninety one patients diagnosed clinically as a case of
maxillary sinusitis at Combined Military Hospital Rawalpindi during the study period fitting the inclusion criteria were selected.
Dentigerous cysts are the second most common type of odontogenic cysts after radicular cysts and also the most common developmental cyst of the jaws.[1] The term dentigerous literally means 'tooth bearing.'[2] The term was coined by Paget in 1853 and arises from the crowns of impacted, embedded, or unerupted teeth.[3] Dentigerous cysts which are associated with supernumerary teeth constitute 5%-6% and about 90% of them are dentigerous cysts associated with
maxillary mesiodens.[4]
There are a few techniques described for performing a
maxillary nerve block in dogs and cats (DUKE, 2000; ROCHETTE, 2005; KLAUMANN, 2013; VISCASILLAS et al., 2013).
All pati - ents that required extraction of any
maxillary tooth of either side were included in this study.
Method: This retrospective study was conducted from November 2016 to January 2017 at Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, and reviewed Cone Beam Computed Tomography images of
maxillary first and second premolars done from November 2014 to October 2016.
Maxillary premolars: Vertucci (12) categorized the root canal systems of human teeth into eight types (Figure 1).
Maxillectomy is performed for radical treatment of
maxillary malignant tumors leading to serious problems in mastication, swallowing, speech, and facial esthetics.
Reportedly,
maxillary premolars are the most complex teeth for performing endodontic treatment,[1] with root canals varying based on race, genetic predisposition, diet, region, gender,[2] and perhaps age.
Frontal sinus mucoceles can sometimes be prevented from closing and reforming by stenting, which to the best of our knowledge has not yet been reported in the
maxillary sinus.
Various studies have investigated the differences in the external and internal anatomy of
maxillary first premolars (2-4).
It shows a wide spectrum of variations in morphology and usually affects the
maxillary lateral incisors.
