Brow lifts and eyelid surgeries are additional operations that can be used in conjunction with a facelift to revitalize aging eyes. It may be suggested to use fillers or fat transfer to replace the lost fatty volume. Skincare procedures including lasers, dermabrasions, and peels could be recommended to enhance the skin's texture and quality. In the century since it was first introduced, the facelift procedure has seen a significant change. Numerous safe, reliable, and efficient surgical techniques have been developed because to the information gathered by earlier surgeons. There is currently disagreement in the literature regarding the most effective strategy. This indicates that, in the hands of an experienced surgeon, several available surgical options are comparable. Many proponents of the various popular approaches have developed strong cases to back up their positions. The lack of consensus emphasizes how crucial it is to constantly innovating in order to meet patient expectations, enhance longevity, and achieve good surgical outcomes. Similarly, further examination of current methods via carefully planned research is essential for the final creation of a \"gold standard.\" One can observe a similar level of progress in facelift development over the next century, with a focus on the use of new technology and a tendency in that direction. This review article focuses on face lift technique and associated problems experienced medical professional.","PeriodicalId":282949,"journal":{"name":"IP International Journal of Maxillofacial Imaging","volume":" 21","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141833076","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 typically arises from the fibroma of the underlying connective tissue (submucosa or periodontal ligament), resulting in tissue enlargement. It is an elevated pedunculated or sessile lesion that ranges from a few millimeters to centimeters; normal in color, although it may appear paler. It can occur at any age, though it has a predilection for young adults, with females being more commonly affected. This case report discusses a 39-year-old female who presented with a growth in the upper front tooth region. The patient reported that she was apparently normal one year prior when she first noticed the growth, which was initially small and gradually increased to its present size. The face appeared asymmetrical on the left side with incompetent lips. Complete excision is the recommended treatment for fibroma. Other therapies, including cryosurgery or intralesional injection of corticosteroids, can be considered if there is a definitive diagnosis based on histopathological features.","PeriodicalId":282949,"journal":{"name":"IP International Journal of Maxillofacial Imaging","volume":" 48","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141833599","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}

These serendipitous findings can ultimately benefit the patient by enhancing our diagnostic practices and facilitating timely treatment. This report aims to spotlight a noteworthy radiological finding known as \"Empty Sella Syndrome\" (ESS) and present a case report from our department. ESS involves the compression of the pituitary gland into a thin rim due to increased cerebrospinal fluid pressure, resulting in the appearance of an almost empty sella turcica. This condition impacts both the neurological and endocrine systems in individuals of all age groups, exhibiting a preference for females. A young patient reported with Buccal space infection and drainage of pus extra-orally along with decayed teeth. The treatment planned was Incision & Drainage, extraction of non-restorable teeth under General Anesthesia as it was a challenge to make the patient cooperate under local anesthesia due to her social anxiety and comprehension difficulties. Patients with empty sella syndrome who present with hormonal deficiencies and delay in developmental milestones may experience intellectual disabilities, they require multidisciplinary collaboration, long term treatment and observation. A thorough knowledge of human anatomy and interpretation of radiographs as well as investigations is critical in recognizing such rare and unusual conditions.","PeriodicalId":282949,"journal":{"name":"IP International Journal of Maxillofacial Imaging","volume":" 16","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141833151","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 mainly occurs in the calf bones and facial bones, with about 30% of cases affecting the cranial bones. Typically seen during adolescence, fibrous dysplasia can persist into adulthood. The maxilla is roughly twice as likely to be afflicted as the mandible, and it generally manifests unilaterally in the vertical rami and angle of the lower jaw. We report a case of 14-year-old adolescent with symptomatic monostotic fibrous dysplasia of the left posterior and anterior lower jaw region, supported by clinical, radiographic, and pathological findings. Radiographic examination revealed a lesion with radio-density and lucent characteristics, like ground glass. Subsequent biopsy and histological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of Fibrous Dysplasia (Aggressive Lesion). Surgical shaving and re-contouring of the jaw were performed with careful attention to protecting the left mental nerve. Regular follow-up for monostotic fibrous dysplasia showed no clear evidence of progression or malignancy during subsequent assessments.","PeriodicalId":282949,"journal":{"name":"IP International Journal of Maxillofacial Imaging","volume":" 49","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141833826","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}

Apical radiolucency and clinical symptoms are the main factors used to diagnose RPI. In the initial weeks following implant implantation, this disease may be upshot in implant failure if it is not identified and treated promptly. RPI has been linked to numerous etiologies, such as surgical trauma and preexisting microbial disease. Furthermore, a variety of techniques have been employed to categorize RPI according to various criteria. Up until now, it has been thought that the removal of defective implants and non-surgical and surgical treatment may effectively address RPI. In addition to providing important literature, this article explains the genesis, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment approaches of implant apical lesions and provides a case of implant periapical diseases. Additionally, we describe a rare instance of RPI in a 47-year-old female patient who experienced pain at the implant site in the posterior maxillary region.","PeriodicalId":282949,"journal":{"name":"IP International Journal of Maxillofacial Imaging","volume":" 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141833406","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}
