In the last decade, digital technology has progressed at lightening speed and shows no sign of abating. Talk of technology is nothing new in dentistry. For years, lectures have focused on the next great digital invention and what it will mean to the dental practice and the dentist's bottom line. However, integration and the effect on the practitioner's psyche has rarely been touched upon. Does a dentist truly need to be "digital" to be a "good dentist"? Can digital technology really improve the quality of dental treatments? These are the questions that need serious thought. Digitisation in dentistry can make it easier and quicker to achieve accurate outcomes that meet and exceed expectations where dentists can make a real difference to the lives of their patients. Dental professionals should think of the digitisation of dentistry as the utilisation of new technology to complement the old established systems. This allows the profession to use progressive technologies, bringing apparent advantages to every day dental practice. There are clinicians who argue that new streamlined, integrated processes are unnecessary as they have been practising quite happily without them for so many years. But dentistry itself is reaching great heights and digitization is quickly becoming part of the mainstream. The paradigm shift from analogue to digital is fast catching up. It is important to educate and inform the dental professionals understand the advantages of digitisation, both to themselves and their patients and then to provide the means by which every practice can reap the multitude of benefits that come from imbibing it appropriately. Most of the dental procedures are being based on the digital techniques. Starting from X-rays or photographs, making impressions, recording jaw movements or fabricating prosthesis, educating and training new dentists or patient motivation for practice build up, all has become digital. CAD- CAM has revolutionized not just the ceramic technology but has also been used for the CAD-CAM implant surgeries, maxillofacial prosthesis and diagnostic splints. Today a practicing dentist needs to be abreast with the latest but with the technology changing so fast, this poses a great challenge. There is endless scope of digitisation and technology in dentistry- let it be in the clinical and lab procedures like use of CAD-CAM technology, rapid prototyping, use of virtual articulators and digital face bows, digital radiographs, fighting caries without drilling - detecting oral cancer earlier Dr. Vikas Jindal or in the field of training, education and research, dental softwares, digital instron machine, Editor in Chief audiovisual aids,… the list will remain endless. Use of implantology is becoming more and more Indian Journal of Dental Sciences simple thanks to digital diagnostics and navigation software for treatment planning. The dental laboratory comes strongly into play in this regard – in particular with the production of precise drilling templates. The dental technician prepares, the dentist adapts and finally fits the restoration in place. The day is not far when remote sensing robotic devices would be performing the restorations under the command and surveillance of the master—the dentist without his immediate presence. Is it possible to make a real difference to the day-to-day delivery of dentistry by embracing rather than shunning the opportunities that digitisation offers? As it is said we should not only keep ourselves abreast of the developments but also utilize these in our day to day treatment. That will be real advancement..

ABSTRACT Mucocele are common salivary gland disorder which can be present in the oral cavity, appendix, gall bladder, paranasal sinuses or lacrimal sac. Common location for these lesions in oral cavity is lower lip however it also presents on other locations like tongue, buccal mucosa, soft palate, retromolar pad and lower labial mucosa. Trauma and lip biting habits are the main cause for these types of lesions. These are painless lesions which can be diagnosed clinically. In this review, a method used for searching data includes various internet sources and relevant electronic journals from the Pub Med and Medline. Keywords: Mucocels, Lower lip, Retention cyst.

Background: The term LASER refers to Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. Recent advances in both soft tissue and hard tissue laser technology have brought a revolution in the field of dentistry. The applications of lasers play a vital role in modern surgical procedures. Lasers use high energy photons at controlled wavelengths to heat or ablate biological tissue thereby making the procedures painless. Lasers are important in ablative, reconstructive and aesthetic surgical procedures. Objective:There are many variations in the types of lasers used in oral and maxillofacial surgical procedures starting from a regular tooth extraction to removal of malignant tumours. With the advent of newer technologies, it has become imperative for dentists to become familiar with these developing modern techniques.

Numerous investigations have studied the pharmacologic actions of SP in oral disease therapies but its promising outcomes in periodontal health and treatment are not yet entirely described. The current study has been planned to analyze the reported effects of SP as a support to periodontal therapy to indorse regeneration and healing. In consort with clinical trials, in vitro investigations show the advantageous outcomes of SP adjunctive to periodontal treatment. Yet, comprehensive supplementary preclinical and clinical investigations at molecular and cellular levels are indispensable to reveal the exact therapeutic mechanisms of SP and its elements for periodontal health and therapy.
