Radiographic imaging plays a critical role in diagnosing and managing complications associated with SCD. This study aims to investigate orofacial radiographic features in patients with SCD and to compare these findings with those in matched healthy controls. A total of 52 patients with SCD were included, along with 52 healthy individuals in an age- and sex-matched control group. The demographic data and medical histories of the participants were recorded. Panoramic, cephalometric, periapical, and bitewing radiographs were obtained by certified dental practitioners. Radiographic features were identified and compared between the study and control groups as well as across SCD subtypes. These features were then correlated with the systemic complications reported by the patients. Data were analyzed using chi-square and Fisher exact tests (P < 0.05). Patients with SCD exhibited generalized osteopenia, enlarged medullary spaces, thinning/scalloping of the inferior border of the mandible, and radiopaque lesions significantly more frequently than did individuals in the control group. No statistically significant differences were found among the SCD subtypes, and there were no significant correlations between radiographic features and disease complications. Identification of these radiographic indicators and greater knowledge of their pathogenesis and association with systemic complications will enhance the role of dentists in the comprehensive medical care of patients with SCD.","PeriodicalId":12571,"journal":{"name":"General dentistry","volume":"73 2","pages":"17-22"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143624314","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Pathophysiology of referred pain in dentistry: a case report.","authors":"Wilson Daniel Bravo Torres, Danny Alexander Abril Pesántez, Alex Raúl Zhinin González","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"This article presents the clinical case of a 42-year-old woman with chronic pain in her left temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and limited mouth opening. The patient also reported anxiety and difficulty sleeping. Cone beam computed tomography revealed impacted maxillary third molars and hypertrophy of the nasal turbinates. An auriculotemporal nerve block performed with 2% lidocaine decreased the pain but did not eliminate it, suggesting that the TMJ was not the primary source of the patient's pain. At a follow-up appointment 24 hours after the nerve block, infiltration anesthesia was administered via a simple buccal injection at the level of the impacted left third molar. The infiltration anesthesia completely eliminated the TMJ pain, indicating that the patient was experiencing referred pain (also known as heterotopic pain). The patient's anxiety and disordered sleep (possibly the result of hypopnea arising from hypertrophic nasal turbinates) could have produced a central hypersensitivity that initiated or exacerbated the referred pain. The patient was advised to consult an otorhinolaryngologist to evaluate her respiratory and sleep problems and a psychiatrist to evaluate her anxiety state. In addition, extraction of the third molars and continued dental follow-up were proposed. Dentists may encounter patients with chronic referred pain in daily practice. Additional research is needed to better understand the mechanisms of referred pain and contributory psychological factors, which would allow dentists to identify and apply the best treatment strategies for these patients.","PeriodicalId":12571,"journal":{"name":"General dentistry","volume":"73 2","pages":"35-38"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143624316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Diagnosis and treatment of cemental tear: a case series.","authors":"Reji Mathew, Valeria Estrella, Jingyuan Fan","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"Cemental tear, characterized by the separation of the cementum from the root surface of a tooth, is commonly observed in patients with localized periodontitis, particularly those with a complex medical history resulting in significant periodontal damage. This condition complicates both diagnosis and treatment, and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a valuable tool for assessing the extent of damage and guiding treatment decisions. This report presents 3 clinical cases of cemental tear. Detailed radiographs and CBCT scans were used to determine the position and size of the lesion, providing guidance for surgical intervention, followed by histopathologic evaluation if the tissue sample was adequate for proper diagnosis. Case 1 involved a 78-year-old woman with swelling around the mandibular left central incisor (tooth 24). The CBCT images revealed no fractures. Debridement and flap surgery were performed, and the symptoms resolved. Case 2 involved a 68-year-old woman who presented with pain and mobility of the mandibular right second premolar (tooth 29), which had previously undergone endodontic treatment. The CBCT images confirmed a cemental tear. Treatment included flap elevation, removal of granulation tissue, and application of enamel matrix derivative, which alleviated the symptoms. Case 3 involved an 82-year-old woman with swelling and mobility of the maxillary right first premolar (tooth 5). The CBCT images revealed extensive bone loss. Flap elevation, removal of granulation tissue, and application of enamel matrix derivative resulted in significant healing. In all of these cases, the size and position of the cemental tears were evaluated by CBCT, facilitating timely intervention that is essential for preventing periodontal tissue damage, enhancing treatment effectiveness, and improving tooth survival rates.","PeriodicalId":12571,"journal":{"name":"General dentistry","volume":"73 2","pages":"61-69"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143624275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
