  • Long-Term Uncontrolled Hereditary Gingival Fibromatosis: a Case Report
    Long-term Uncontrolled Hereditary Gingival Fibromatosis: A Case Report Abstract Hereditary gingival fibromatosis (HGF) is a rare condition characterized by varying degrees of gingival hyperplasia. Gingival fibromatosis usually occurs as an isolated disorder or can be associated with a variety of other syndromes. A 33-year-old male patient who had a generalized severe gingival overgrowth covering two thirds of almost all maxillary and mandibular teeth is reported. A mucoperiosteal flap was performed using interdental and crevicular incisions to remove excess gingival tissues and an internal bevel incision to reflect flaps. The patient was treated 15 years ago in the same clinical facility using the same treatment strategy. There was no recurrence one year following the most recent surgery.

    International Journal of Dental and Health Sciences Review Article Volume 01,Issue 05 DENTAL CALCULUS: A STRATEGIC REVIEW Rajiv Saini1 1.Associate Professor,Department of Periodontology,Pravra Institute of Medical Sciences-Loni ABSTRACT: Dental calculus or tartar is an adherent calcified mass that form on the surface of teeth and dental appliance through mineralization of bacterial dental plaque in aqueous environment. Dental calculus plays a vital role in aggravating the periodontal disease by acting as reservoir for the bacterial plaque and providing the protected-covered niche for bacteria to proliferate. Based upon the location of dental calculus in relation to marginal gingiva, it is classified into mainly two types: 1. Supragingival calculus and subgingival calculus. Calcium and phosphate are two salivary ions which are raw materials for dental calculus formation. The various techniques and equipments involved for calculus removal is Hand Instruments, Ultrasonic, Ultrasound Technology and Lasers. Chemotherapeutic agents have been used to supplement the mechanical removal of dental plaque, but a more potent oral rinse with anti-calculus properties to prevent mineralization will be the need of time to suppress calculus formation. Key Words: Periodontitis, Anti-calculus, Periogen. INTRODUCTION: biofilm is that it allows the micro-organisms to stick and to multiply on surfaces. [3] Periodontitis is a destructive inflammatory Mineralization of dental plaque leads to disease of the supporting tissues of the calculus formation. Dynamic state of tooth teeth and is caused either by specific surface is responsible for mineralization of microorganisms or by a group of specific plaque.

  • Dentinal Hypersensitivity: a Review
    Dentinal Hypersensitivity: A Review Abstract Dentinal hypersensitivity is generally reported by the patient after experiencing a sharp pain caused by one of several different stimuli. The pain response varies substantially from one person to another. The condition generally involves the facial surfaces of teeth near the cervical aspect and is very common in premolars and canines. The most widely accepted theory of how the pain occurs is Brannstrom’s hydrodynamic theory, fluid movement within the dentinal tubules. The dental professional, using a variety of diagnostic techniques, will discern the condition from other conditions that may cause sensitive teeth. Treatment of the condition can be invasive or non-invasive in nature. The most inexpensive and efficacious first line of treatment for most patients is a dentifrice containing a desensitizing active ingredient such as potassium nitrate and/or stannous fluoride. This review will address the prevalence, diagnosis, and treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity. In addition the home care recommendations will focus on desensitizing dentifrices.
