These pathogenic microorganisms can be inhibited by using drugs and natural materials all around us. One of the natural ingredients that we can use to treat infections in children's teeth is anchovy extract (Stolephorussp) which we often encounter in Indonesian marine waters. Stolephorussp contains a lot of high fluoride and calcium. The fluoride content is 15.7-38.33ppm, especially in CaF2 compounds.\u0000\u0000Aim: Providing information about the effectiveness of anchovy extract (Stolephorussp), on the condition of the oral cavity of children, the author wants to compare the level of effectiveness of a natural ingredient stolephorussp an antibacterial agent in the oral cavity of children.\u0000\u0000Mini-Review: The Fluoride in bacteria works as bacteriostatic to prevent cell proliferation by inhibiting nucleic acid synthesis, which is vital for cell development.

Material consists of 125 patients who attending to the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery and to the consultant unit of head and neck oncologic surgery and diagnosed clinically, radiographically as having jawbone swellings. Histopathological results of biopsy were used to confirm the diagnosis. Data; were collected from clinical examination of the patients (interview, inspection and palpation of the suspected swelling), patient history(using questionnaire sheet), radiographs and histopathological examinations. They entered the computer and analysis using statistical package for social science (SPSS) version 24. Results; were presented as simple frequencies and descriptive statistics.

Both oral and intravenous conscious sedation are available as a choice. Oral sedation with Alprazolam and Codeine is very effective for most oral surgical procedures especially the removal of impacted third molars and surgical placement of implants. It is this sedation regimen that comprises the synergistic use of both aprazolam and codeine to effect sedation with amnesia that is the standard procedure at the Faculty of Dentistry of the International Postgraduate Medical College. The purpose of this case report is to appraise the possible negative effect of Alprazolam and Codeine sedation mentioned above on a patient who presented with polycythaemia rubra vera (a very rare haematological condition). This is because the codeine component of this combination will depress the respiratory centre in the medulla oblongata putting the patient at risk.\u0000\u0000The case study is that of a 70-Year-old male patient who had been a regular patient for approximately 10 years ago at the Faculty of Dentistry, International Postgraduate Medical College (IPMC), where a total upper denture and a partial lower denture were placed. The patient returned in 2019 with the chief complaint of halitosis and pain in the mandibular posterior right region. The patient gave past medical history of PRV, epilepsy and hypertension and history of being on multiple medications for these conditions. The treatment plan advised was total extraction of the remaining mandibular dentition and excisional biopsy of the suspicious lesion mesial to the mandibular right first molar, together with a complete lower denture replacement. The procedure was done without sedation and at no time was the patient considered to be in danger as it relates to oxygen saturation, carbon dioxide drive to the brain and bleeding.\u0000\u0000Every hematologist managing patients with PRV will be very concerned as to how these patients are managed by dentists, particularly as it relates to oxygen saturation, carbon dioxide drive to the brain and hemostasis. Similarly, most dental practitioners that are managing such patients may not be familiar with the technicalities surrounding the clinical and operative management of these patients. It is for this reason that this case report focusing on oral surgical management of a patient with PRV is of significance to the dental literature, particularly as it aims to develop a working group for the development of the protocol for the management of PRV.","PeriodicalId":92922,"journal":{"name":"Journal of dentistry and oral sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44281011","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 parameters included commonly available imaging techniques, exposure of radiation to the patient, coverage area of teeth and surrounding facial bones, ease of availability and the cost effectiveness. The interview was conducted by two operators to eliminate subject bias.

We collected case reports of 17 cases over a three-year period. The patients were selected from the age group six to 13 years of age with history of trivial blunt orbital trauma. The main complaint was mild pain in the eye upon presentation. Five patients were having clinical presentation of oculo-cardiac reflex. The suspected patients underwent Cone Beam CT of the midface with multiplanar cone beam reconstruction which confirmed the diagnosis of orbital floor fractures with trap door defect or minimal displacement and in a few cases inferior rectus entrapment. Orbital floor trapdoor fractures have oblivious features upon presentation and can easily be overlooked if not evaluated managed by expert healthcare providers which can lead to significant morbidity and even mortality in patients with oculocardiac reflex. Cone Beam CT of mid face with multiplanar reconstruction is the standard of care in the diagnosis and management of white eyed blow out orbital floor fractures in the provision of evidenced based healthcare practice.\u0000\u0000Methodology: This is a retrospective cohort study to evaluate the results of pediatric age group with trapdoor and blow out orbital floor fractures who underwent CBCT for the diagnosis and further management. Seventeen cases were selected who were in the age group between 6 to 13 years.12 cases underwent surgery for orbital floor exploration and nine were having inferior rectus muscle entrapment which was released. Five patients were managed non surgically.\u0000\u0000Result: One patient disappeared in this group during one-year post-operative follow up. No residual defect was found in the remaining sixteen patients. Cone beam Computer tomography with multiplanar reconstruction should be the standard of care for the diagnosis and treatment of blow out and trapdoor orbital fractures.\u0000\u0000Strength and limitations: Although this study is of a limited number of pediatric patients, but it highlights the significance of CBCT in the management of trapdoor and blow out orbital floor fractures in children. Further studies are needed to elaborate the utilization of CBCT in the treatment of orbital floor and medial orbital wall fractures.\u0000\u0000Conclusion: Our study suggests that CBCT has a higher value of specificity and less radiation exposure in the diagnosis of orbital fractures in pediatric age group when there is isolated orbital or mid face trauma, and CT brain is not recommended. Cone Beam CT with multiplanar reconstruction is considered the standard of care in the diagnosis of white eyed blow out orbital floor fractures in the provision of evidenced based healthcare practice. Perioperative CBCT and navigation should be universalized to achieve the best outcome.","PeriodicalId":92922,"journal":{"name":"Journal of dentistry and oral sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42840250","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}
