RESUMO
Gardner syndrome is an autosomal dominant disease. It is characterized by a combination of familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) of the intestine with extraintestinal changes as multiple osteomas and fibromas. Odontogenic Myxoma is a benign, aggressive intraosseous neoplasm. We report a rare case of a 14-year-old male patient with Gardner's syndrome and odontogenic myxoma, which involved the entire left half of the mandible, resulting in a gross facial deformity, within a span of one year.

Hemifacial hyperplasia is a rare developmental anomaly characterized by marked unilateral facial tissues. It involves orofacial soft tissues, bones of the face, and teeth. The cause remains ambiguous although several predisposing factors have been reported. A case report of a 32-year-old girl with unilateral hemifacial enlargement, pain in temporomandibular joint, and limited mouth opening associated is presented to highlight the clinical and imaging findings and to discuss the differential diagnosis.
RESUMO
This report describes the role of severe pain in failure of dental implants. A 27-year-old woman presented to the clinic to replace the missing mandibular right first molar and second premolar. A panoramic radiograph was taken, and a clinical examination was done. A decision was made to extract the mandibular right second molar, which had failing endodontics, and two dental implants were placed. Two days later, the patient reported severe pain in that area. Microscopic examination of the surgical specimen revealed longitudinal section of peripheral nerve in the implant site.
