In primary dentition, luxation injuries are the most prevalent kind of TDI. Permanent incisors are at a higher risk of developing post-traumatic complications because they are closely related to the apices of primary incisors.Usually, fixed appliances are used to treat such ectopic eruption.

It also occurs less frequently in areas like the palate, buccal mucosa, gingiva and the floor of mouth. Once compared to SCC, BSCC is documented for its aggressiveness in the head-and-neck area, along with its recurrence in local and cervical lymph nodes for its distant metastasis to the lungs. In addition, local lymph nodes are more common in regular recurrence rates. BSCC in the head and neck is more likely to spread to other parts of the body. It has an increased tendency to metastasize when compared with other tumours. We report a rare case of a BSCC arising in the buccal mucosa in a 65-year-old male patient and explain its clinicopathologic characteristics.","PeriodicalId":163007,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Academy of Dental Education","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117196053","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}

In medicolegal cases, estimation of gender using the skeletal remains of victims is imperative. The identity of an individual can be verified by examination of teeth and surrounding tissues from skeletal remains. Measurements from teeth and skull can help a Forensic Odontologist to identify deceased victims by age, gender, or race. The association of skeletal remains with gender gains utmost importance in cases of mass fatality such as earthquakes, tsunami, accidents, cyclones, and floods. If an individual is not in a condition to be identified, then they can be identified from the dentition or remains of dentition during any natural or manmade calamities. The benefit of determining gender in mass calamities is that accurately determined gender confines the number of missing individuals to one-half of the population in the majority cases. Many studies pertaining to maxillary arch widths have been performed yet the literature regarding mandibular arch widths remains scarce. Furthermore, in the literature, very few studies have been carried out to correlate canine fossa width and gender of an individual.\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000The study was carried out on a sample size of 120 study models, between 18 to and 35 years in department of orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics and the samples had equal male and female distribution.

Intermolar arch width in maxillary arch was 47.81 ± 3.02 mm and 45.2 ± 2.64 mm for males and females correspondingly with P < 0.001 which is statistically highly significant. Canine fossa width in maxillary arch was 43.42 ± 2.58 mm and 40.36 ± 2.32 mm for males and females correspondingly with P < 0.001 which is statistically highly significant.
