Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) dosimetry in tooth enamel has been applied for dose reconstruction for epidemiological studies of dif- ferent cohorts, including Hiroshima atomic bomb survivors, Chernobyl clean-up workers and other victims of unintended exposures to ionizing radiation. Several international inter-comparisons of EPR enamel dosimetry have demonstrated a high accuracy and reli- ability for this method. The main disadvantage of standard EPR enamel radiation dosimetry, however, is the necessity for large, 100 mg, enamel samples to achieve adequate signal-to-noise. This necessitates the use of extracted teeth for dose measurements, making the application of EPR in dental enamel for immediate, after-the-fact dosimetry problematic. The present study endeavored to improve the sensitivity of EPR measurements sufficiently to make the use of minimally-invasive in vivo enamel biopsies feasible for retrospective radiation dosimetry. Materials and methods: Enamel samples were obtained from teeth extracted in the normal course of dental treatment. Enamel biopsy samples of 2-4 mg in weight were obtained using a high-speed dental hand-piece with a tapered fissure or diamond bur, and an enamel chisel.

The study includesalldental patientswho are undergoingscreeningOPGinsections ofdental x-raysin the city ofKhartoum, to assess theoral health through theimageresulting fromthisexaminationanddetermine thefeasibility ofthisexaminationin the diagnosis ofdiseases of the mouthand theknowledge ofthe relationship betweenfood habits of the patientandthe health ofhis mouth, andidentify waysbest fororal hygiene andto maintain his healthanddetermine the effect ofagingon the teethandgums In addition to studyingeffectsfor women. 1-2 Orthopantomogram (OPG) Orthopantogram is a panoramic scanning dental X-ray of the upper and lower jaw. It shows a two-dimensional view of a half-circle from ear to ear. Dental panoramic radiography equipment consists of a horizontal rotating arm which holds an X-ray source and a moving film mechanism (carrying a film) arranged at opposed extremities. The patient's skull sits between the X-ray generator and the film. The X-ray source is collimated toward the film, to give a beam shaped as a vertical blade having a width of 4-7mm when arriving on the film, after crossing the patient's skull. Also the height of that beam covers the mandibles and the maxilla regions .The arm moves and its movement may be described as a rotation around an instant center which shifts on a dedicated trajectory A large number of anatomical structures appear on an OPG: Soft tissue structures and air shadows: demonstrates the main soft tissue structures seen on an OPG, these are usually outlined by air within the nasopharynx and oropharynx.

Necrotizing sialometaplasia Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Tobacco-associated If you suspect that a lesion is malignant, refer to an oral surgeon for a biopsy. It is the most common type of oral SCC, which accounts for over 75% of all malignant neoplasms of the oral cavity. Clinically, it is more common in men over 55 years of age, heavy smokers and heavy drinkers, more in males especially black males. However, it has been described in young white males, under the age of fifty non-smokers and non-drinkers. The latter group constitutes less than 5% of the patients and their SCCs tend to be in the posterior mouth (oropharynx and tosillar area) associated with HPV infection especially HPV type 16. The most common sites for the tobacco-associated are the lateral and ventral tongue, followed by the floor of mouth and soft palate area.

Chernova PATHOLOGY OF ORAL CAVITY ORAL MUCOSA SALIVARY GLANDS HARD TISSUES (TEETH+JAWS) I. Pathology of oral mucosa Overview of oral mucosa diseases • Idiopathic recurrent aphthous ulcers affect 15%–20% of the population; severe cases can be debilitating • Oral ulcers may also be associated with Crohn disease and other gastrointestinal disorders or due to herpes simplex, other viral infections, vasculitis, or other autoimmune disorders • Candidiasis of the oral cavity is common and painful. Predisposing factors include immunosuppression, hyposalivation, and use of steroids or antibiotics • Hair leukoplakia is due to Epstein–Barr viral infection and may be the presenting sign of HIV/AIDS Overview of oral mucosa diseases • Oral lichen planus (LP) and lichenoid reactions affect 1%– 2% of the population and are the most common cause of desquamative gingivitis; LP probably reflects a hypersensitivity response to endogenous or exogenous antigens • Leukoplakia is a premalignant condition associated with smoking and/or alcohol ingestion that must be distinguished from LP and benign frictional keratoses • Bullous diseases that affect the mouth include pemphigus, pemphigoid, and lupus erythematous • Intraoral pigmented lesions include nevi, postinflammatory hyperpigmentation, drug reactions, tattoos, and rarely melanoma. Aphthous ulcers Candidiasis of the oral cavity Hair leukoplakia Oral lichen planus Leukoplakia Bullous diseases lupus erythematous pemphigus Intraoral pigmented lesions nevus melanoma postinflammatory pigmentation in lichen planus Oral inflammatory lesions • Aphthous ulcers (Canker sores) • Herpes Simplex Virus Infections • Oral Candidiasis (Thrush) Aphthous Ulcers (Canker Sores) • Common superficial mucosal ulcerations • Up to 40% of the population.

The methods included a retrospective analysis of consecutive panoramic radiographs, charts from the Oral Medicine clinic and consecutive CBCT scans. All cases diagnosed as LCMBD were selected and clinical-radiological data were retrieved from the clinical charts and by the analysis of the image exams. Twenty LCMBD cases diagnosed in 18 patients were found, including 2 from 3,000 consecutive panoramic radiographs (0.07%), 6 from 2,421 Oral Medicine patients (0.25%) and 10 from 1,684 CBCT scans (0.59%).
