However, 62 individuals out of the study group were not willing to undergo\u0000biopsy. Only the remaining 32 individuals volunteered to participate in the study, from these volunteers’\u0000biopsy specimens were obtained involving both stained and unstained area.

Tolonium\u0000chloride vital staining cannot be used to delineate the biopsy margins. Tolonium chloride might be used\u0000as a diagnostic tool in the biopsy site selection.

Oral melanotic macule has previously been described as benign, with no malignant potential. However, a few case reports have raised the question of malignant potential of oral melanotic macule. In this case report, we present a case of coexistence of oral melanotic macule and oral melanoma. A 66-year-old man with a chief complaint of black pigmentation on gingiva showed the lesion spread out on the right palatal gingiva, the right maxillary buccal gingiva and the right buccal mucosa, appearing to merge with one another. Biopsies were performed on the right palatal gingiva and the right buccal mucosa. While the lesion on the right palatal gingiva was diagnosed as an oral melanotic macule, the other lesion on the right buccal mucosa was diagnosed as an oral melanoma. The present case implied the possibility of malignant potential of oral melanotic macule. Therefore, oral melanotic macule needs careful periodic observation for early detection and prompt treatment of the transformed oral melanoma.","PeriodicalId":16606,"journal":{"name":"Journal of oral medicine","volume":"18 1","pages":"71-78"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82346777","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}

It is a vaccine-preventable disease and rarely occurs in developed countries. However, approximately 30 cases still occur annually in South Korea. Tetanus, commonly called lockjaw, cause contraction of the masseter muscles in the early stage, resulting in trismus as the first symptom. As it progresses, spasm extends to various muscles in the face, neck, shoulder, and back, leading to distorted facial expression, dysphagia, backward arching of the body, dyspnea, and even death. Early diagnosis of tetanus is critical because it can quickly become fatal if left untreated. We present a case of trismus caused by tetanus and emphasize the importance of early diagnosis of acute trismus.","PeriodicalId":16606,"journal":{"name":"Journal of oral medicine","volume":"3 1","pages":"79-82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77728958","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}

The aims of this study were to evaluate association of pain experience, sleep quality and psychological distress with different phenotypes of TMD patients. Methods: This retrospective study included a cohort (n=1,858; 63.8% for female, mean age=34.9±15.9 years) of patients with TMD. A set of self-administered questionnaires concerning pain interference (Brief Pain Inventory), pain disability (Graded Chronic Pain Scale), sleep quality (Pittsburg Sleep Questionnaire Index), psychological distress (Symptom Checklist-90 revised), and pain catastrophizing (Pain Catastrophizing Scale) were administered to all participants at the first consultation. All TMD patients were classified into four groups including TMD with internal derangement without pain (TMD_ID, n=370), TMD with joint pain (TMD_J, n=571), TMD with muscle pain (TMD_M, n=541) and TMD with muscle-joint combined pain (TMD_MJ, n=376). Results: The female ratio was particularly high in the group with TMD_MJ (p=0.001). The patients with muscle pain and both muscle and joint pain had longer symptom duration (p=0.004) and presented significantly higher scores in pain experience (p<0.001), subjective sleep quality (p<0.001), pain catastrophizing (p<0.001) and psychological distress (p<0.05) except for paranoid-ideation than the groups with only joint problems. Conclusions: The results of this study highlight the importance of multi-dimensional approach that consider pain disability, sleep quality, and psychological functioning in the management of TMD with muscle component. This study would contribute to a better understanding of interaction between heterogeneous TMD and multiple risk factors in order to build tailored treatment based on different phenotypes.","PeriodicalId":16606,"journal":{"name":"Journal of oral medicine","volume":"26 1","pages":"56-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83131902","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}

Methods: A total of 99 subjects (males: 24, females: 75, mean age: 76) were analyzed. The maximum bite force (MBF) was measured with a pressure-sensitive sheet and an image scanner. The mixing ability index (MAI) was calculated by image analysis after asking the subjects to chew a wax specimen. The MMT during rest and clenching were obtained with a diagnostic ultrasound system, and the difference in MMT during rest and MMT during clenching was defined as the difference in masseter muscle thickness (DMMT). Multiple regression analysis was performed to determine the independent variables affecting MBF and MAI. Results: The MBF showed correlation with the number of remaining teeth (β=0.346, p=0.002) and DMMT (β=0.251, p=0.011). The MAI correlated with only the number of remaining teeth (β=0.476, p<0.001).

Caries diagnosis may be done by visual method, tactile method, raidiography, caries detecting dyes, fiberoptic transillumination method, electronic caries monitor etc. dental caries diagnosis primarily done by detection of white spot, discolouration frank cavitations and making use of explorers to feel the catch. Since a long time, Bitewings are most widely used for assessing caries radiographically. Fiber optic transillumination (FOTI) and digital imaging fiber optic transillumination (DIFOTI) makes use of visible light for caries detection. Quantitative Light-Induced Fluorescence (QLF) is based on property of natural fluorescence shown by tooth enamel. Electrical conductance technology makes use of the fact that there is a differential conductivity between sounds versus demineralized tooth enamel due to changes in porosity, as saliva soaks into the pores of the demineralized enamel and increases the electrical conductivity of the tooth. Alternating current impedance spectroscopy (Carie Scan) uses multiple electrical frequencies to detect occlusal and smooth surface caries.
