A review of the literature and a case report of follicular lymphoid hyperplasia (FLH) of the hard palate has been presented. This entity should always be considered when confronted with a hard-palate swelling. A diagnosis of FLH generally can be made after a thorough medical and dental examination and immunocytochemical studies of the surgical specimen. Local wide excision of the tumor is suggested as the treatment of choice. During the healing period, the use of a surgical stent will give the patient comfort as the wound heals by secondary intention.

Three case reports illustrate the inability to detect the presence of the impacted maxillary third molars by conventional periapical radiography. In each case there was extensive cystic proliferation causing damage to the bony maxilla, antrum, and tooth-bearing areas. The pathological conditions were subsequently detected by further radiographic study, and surgically treated.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the impairment of both psychomotor function and memory after intravenous administration of 17 to 28 mg. of diazepam to normal volunteers. A battery of tests, including word memory, Seguin form board, digit symbol, digit span, block design, and reaction time, was administered at set intervals to both drug and nondrug subjects. The diazepam group demonstrated both psychomotor and anterograde memory deficits which persisted throughout the 150-minute evaluation; but relative to the control group, the diazepam group had enhanced retrograde memory. These preliminary results indicate that even after subjects appear to be recovered from the effect;s of diazepam, residual psychomotor and memory impairment remain.

Supraeruption of the right maxillary molars and concomitant drop of the alveolar ridge resulted in loss of intermaxillary space. With the patient under local anesthesia and intravenous sedation, a posterior segmental osteotomy was performed, on an outpatient basis, to reposition this segment superiorly into the maxillary sinus. Stabilization was accomplished with a prefabricated acrylic splint. The patient quickly resumed her daily routine with normal postoperative healing and satisfactory intermaxillary space.
