ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To determine if any difference exists in the oral health status between geriatric patients with diabetes mellitus and the normal population. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: The oral health status of 100 metabolically controlled geriatric diabetic patients attending the Diabetes Clinic of the Manipal Hospital, were prospectively assessed over six months and compared with that of 50 non-diabetic acting as controls. RESULTS: The mean duration of diabetes was 100.5±85.1 months. The degree of hyposalivation between the two groups was statistically significant (p < 0.05). No significant difference was observed in the taste, burning mouth sensation, angular cheilitis, glossitis, and stomatitis status of the two groups and no pathgnomonic lesions or alterations could be observed in relation to the disease. CONCLUSION: It was concluded that, with adequate metabolic control, the oral health status of a diabetic may not be significantly different from that of a non-diabetic except for xerostomia.


OBJETIVO: Avaliar possíveis diferenças na saúde bucal de pacientes geriátricos com diabetes mellitus em comparação a uma população normal. CASUÍSTICA E MÉTODO: A condição de saúde bucal de 100 pacientes geriátricos diabéticos, metabolicamente controlados, atendidos na Clínica de Diabetes do Hospital Manipal foram avaliados prospectivamente durante seis meses e comparados com 50 pacientes geriátricos não diabéticos (grupo controle). RESULTADOS: A duração média do diabetes foi 100 m5 +- 85,1 meses. O grau de hiposalivação entre os dois grupos foi estatisticamente significante (p < 0,05). Não foram encontradas diferenças significativas no paladar, sensação de queimação bucal, queilite angular, glossite e estomatites entre os dois grupos. Não foram observadas lesões patognômicas ou alterações relacionadas ao diabetes. CONCLUSÃO: Concluiu-se que, com controle metabólico adequado, as condições bucais de pacientes diabéticos geriátricos pode não ser significativamente diferente das de um não diabético, com exceção da xerostomia.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To present a case and discuss the clinicopathological characteristics of nasopalatine duct cyst and discuss the etiology, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis, with a review of the literature. DISCUSSION: Nasopalatine duct cyst occurs in approximately 1% of the population. Presentation may be asymptomatic or include swelling, pain, and drainage from the hard palate. Surgical treatment was carried out under local anesthesia and comprised the dissection and removal of the cyst adopting a usually palatine approach.


OBJETIVO: Apresentar um caso e discutir as características clínico-patológicas do cisto de ducto nasopalatino, discutinfo a etiologia, diagnóstico, tratamento e prognóstico, revisando a literatura. DISCUSSÃO: Os cistos naso-palatinos ocorrem em aproximadamente 1% da população. A apresentação pode ser assintomática ou incluir edema, dor e drenagem purulenta do palato duro. O tratamento cirúrgico foi sob anestesia local e constituiu de dissecção e remoção do cisto, via acesso palatino.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: The present paper highlights a case where the patients presented with spacing in the upper anterior region due to missing right lateral and peg shaped left lateral incisor. METHOD AND RESULTS: The initial treatment was standard edgewise fixed orthodontic appliance to distalize the canine, correct the bite and create space for the lateral incisors and correct the midline. CONCLUSION: After the active phase of fixed orthodontic treatment, an implant was placed and the peg shaped lateral incisor was built up with composite.


OBJETIVOS: O presente artigo refere-se a um caso em que o paciente apresentava espaços na região anterior da maxila devido à ausência de incisivo lateral direito e incisivo lateral esquerdo com coroa deformada. MÉTODO E RESULTADO: O tratamento inicial foi ortodontia fixa (edgewise) para distalizar o canino, corrigir a mordida e criar espaço para o incisivo lateral e corrigir a linha média. CONCLUSÃO: Após a fase ativa da ortodontia, utilizou-se um implante adequado na região do lateral direito e reconstruiu-se a coroa deformada do incisivo lateral esquerdo com compósito.

ABSTRACT

Odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) are epithelial developmental cysts which were first described byPhillipsen in 1956. Lesions are frequently multiple and a component of Nevoid Basal Cell CarcinomaSyndrome (NBCCS) (Gorlin Goltz syndrome/Bifid rib syndrome). We hereby report a case of multipleOKCs in a non – syndromic patient and highlight the general practitioner the importance of diagnosingthe disease and enforcing a strict long-term follow-up whenever such a case is identified.


Os keratocistos odontogênicos são cistos de desenvolvimento que foram descritos primeiramentepor Phillipsen, em 1956. As lesões são frequentemente múltiplas, sendo componentes da síndromedo carcinoma nevoide de células basais (síndrome de Gorlin, síndrome das costelas bífidas).Descreve-se um caso de keratocistos múltiplos em paciente não-sindrômico, enfatizando-se aimportância do clínico geral no diagnóstico da doença e reforçando a necessidade de umapreservação a longo prazo tão logo a doença seja diagnosticada.

ABSTRACT

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence of oral mucosal lesions in Manipal, Karnataka State, India. A total of 1190 subjects who visited the department of oral medicine and radiology for diagnosis of various oral complaints over a period of 3 months were interviewed and clinically examined for oral mucosal lesions. The result showed the presence of one or more mucosal lesions in (41.2%) of the population. Fordyce's condition was observed most frequently (6.55%) followed by frictional keratosis (5.79%), fissured tongue (5.71%), leukoedema (3.78%), smoker's palate (2.77%), recurrent aphthae, oral submucous fibrosis (2.01%), oral malignancies (1.76%), leukoplakia (1.59%), median rhomboid glossitis (1.50%), candidiasis (1.3%), lichen planus (1.20%), varices (1.17%), traumatic ulcer and oral hairy leukoplakia (1.008%), denture stomatitis, geographic tongue, betel chewer's mucosa and irritational fibroma (0.84%), herpes labialis, angular cheilitis (0.58%), and mucocele (0.16%). Mucosal lesions like tobacco-related lesions (leukoplakia, smoker's palate, oral submucous fibrosis, and oral malignancies) were more prevalent among men than among women. Denture stomatitis, herpes labialis, and angular cheilitis occurred more frequently in the female population.

ABSTRACT

Central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) formerly called giant cell reparative granuloma is a non-neoplastic proliferative lesion of unknown etiology. It occurs most commonly in the mandible. The case reported here resembled a wide variety of conditions that led to a misdiagnosis both on clinical and radiographic examination but was histopathologically diagnosed as CGCG. We describe a case of central giant cell granuloma arising from the anterior maxilla to highlight to the general dental practitioner the importance of histopathology in the diagnosis of this enigmatic lesion.
