Ludwig's Angina: Causes Symptoms and Treatment
Aishwarya Balakrishnan et al /J. Pharm. Sci. & Res. Vol. 6(10), 2014, 328-330 Ludwig’s Angina: Causes Symptoms and Treatment Aishwarya Balakrishnan,M.S Thenmozhi, Saveetha Dental College Abstract : Ludwigs angina is a disease which is characterised by the infection in the floor of the oral cavity. Ludwig's angina is also otherwise commonly known as "angina". Previously this disease was deemed as fatal but later on it was concluded that with proper treatment this infection can be removed and the pateint can recover. It mostly occurs in adults and children are not affected by this disease. As the infection spreads further it would affect the wind pipe and lead to swellings of the neck. The skin around the neck would also be infected severely and lead to redness. The individual would mostly be febrile during this time. Since the airway is blocked the individual would suffer from difficulty in breathing. If the infection spreads to the internal ear then the individual may have audio impairment. The main cause for this disease is dental infections caused due to improper dental hygiene. Keywords: Ludwigsangina ,trasechtomy, fiberoptic intubation INTRODUCTION: piercing(6)(8)(7).

The crushed granules were demineralized completely in2% HNO3 solution for 20 min, and rinsed incoldsaline. We named each biomaterial after the acid treatment and washing, demineralized dentin matrices (DDM), demineralized bone matrices (DBM). Five wisdom teeth (total wet volume: 10.0 g) were crushed, decalcified, and lyophilized. The distribution offreeze-dried DDM granules was fine granules (0.51.0 mm: 0.27 g), moderate (1.02.0 mm: 0.46 g), and large (2.05.0 mm: 0.64 g). The fine granules of human DDM or DBM were implanted into the subcutaneous tissue of 4 week-old nude mice, and theirtissue-inductive properties were estimated at 4 weeks after implantation histologically. -

Third Molar (Wisdom) Teeth
Third molar (wisdom) teeth This information leaflet is for patients who may need to have their third molar (wisdom) teeth removed. It explains why they may need to be removed, what is involved and any risks or complications that there may be. Please take the opportunity to read this leaflet before seeing the surgeon for consultation. The surgeon will explain what treatment is required for you and how these issues may affect you. They will also answer any of your questions. What are wisdom teeth? Third molar (wisdom) teeth are the last teeth to erupt into the mouth. People will normally develop four wisdom teeth: two on each side of the mouth, one on the bottom jaw and one on the top jaw. These would normally erupt between the ages of 18-24 years. Some people can develop less than four wisdom teeth and, occasionally, others can develop more than four. A wisdom tooth can fail to erupt properly into the mouth and can become stuck, either under the gum, or as it pushes through the gum – this is referred to as an impacted wisdom tooth. Sometimes the wisdom tooth will not become impacted and will erupt and function normally. Both impacted and non-impacted wisdom teeth can cause problems for people. Some of these problems can cause symptoms such as pain & swelling, however other wisdom teeth may have no symptoms at all but will still cause problems in the mouth. People often develop problems soon after their wisdom teeth erupt but others may not cause problems until later on in life. -

Case Report Iranian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, Vol.30(3), Serial No.98, May 2018 Complication of an Odontogenic Infection to an Orbital Abscess: The Role of a Medical Fraudster (“Quack”) Nikhil Arora1, *Ruchika Juneja1, Ravi Meher1 Abstract Introduction: Complication of an odontogenic infection to an orbital abscess is not a common presentation. The progression from a simple toothache to a condition that may lead to loss of vision is sudden and severe. Case Report: We report a rare case in which a patient developed facial cellulitis that progressed to orbital abscess after unsterile dental manipulation by a medical fraudster (“quack”). The patient was initiated on high-grade antibiotics, which resolved the facial cellulitis. However, the patient developed orbital abscess with restricted mobility of the right eye in the lateral gaze. After radiological confirmation of the abscess, it was drained by an external approach. Due to timely intervention, the extra-ocular mobility was regained, and the vision remained unaffected. Conclusion: Knowledge of the routes of the spread of dental infection to the vital structures and the urgent need for aggressive multidisciplinary management is paramount. Furthermore, awareness of the rising quack culture in developing nations needs to be increased. Keywords: Facial pain, Orbital cellulitis, Tooth extraction.

Wisdom Teeth Patient Information 1 About Your Wisdom Teeth
Wisdom Teeth Patient Information 1 About Your Wisdom Teeth What You Need to Know Also known as “third molars”, wisdom teeth don’t usually push through the gums until individuals reach their late teens, early 20’s or sometimes even older. Wisdom teeth are usually the last teeth to push through the gums. Most individuals have four wisdom teeth while some individuals have none. For many, there is not enough space at the rear of the jaw for wisdom teeth to easily push through the gums. When the jaw lacks space for the wisdom tooth to push through, the tooth becomes “impacted” or wedged in. Impacted wisdom teeth may not necessarily be a problem for some people while others may experience severe problems. If any wisdom teeth cause problems, they must be removed as soon as possible before the situation worsens. Sometimes, if it appears that the wisdom teeth will be difficult to remove, your dentist may refer you to an oral and maxillofacial surgeon. Depending on the shape and position of some wisdom teeth and the shape of the jaws, it’s occasionally recommendable that an oral and maxillofacial surgeon removes the wisdom teeth. When to Remove Teeth Your dentist will need to inspect your mouth, jaws and x-rays before discussing the diagnosis with you. It may be required that one or more of your wisdom teeth are removed, or other options are needed to be discussed. If there has been an infection, it may need to be treated before the surgery is performed. Sometimes, even if the wisdom tooth has caused problems, the situation may remedy once it has pushed through the gum. -
INFORMATION for PATIENTS Removal of Wisdom Teeth (Third
INFORMATION FOR PATIENTS Removal of Wisdom Teeth (Third Molars) This booklet is for patients who may need to have an operation to take out their wisdom teeth. It explains why this may need to happen. It also explains what is involved and the risks and problems. Wisdom teeth Adults normally have 32 teeth. Wisdom teeth (third molars) are the last to come through at the back of the mouth usually around the age of 18 years. Normally, there are four wisdom teeth, one on each side of the upper and lower jaws. Impacted wisdom teeth Some jaws are too small to accommodate all the teeth. There may not be enough space for the wisdom teeth to come through completely. They are said to have become impacted (stuck). This is often painful. Reasons for the removal of wisdom teeth • the most common reason is repeated infections (pericoronitis) of the gum overlying a wisdom tooth • decay in the wisdom tooth, which your dentist cannot fill • decay in the tooth in front of the wisdom tooth. The dentist can’t fill this tooth properly until the wisdom tooth is removed • infection (abscess) at the bottom of the wisdom tooth root • when the molar tooth next to the wisdom tooth is affected by gum (periodontal) disease • a cyst (fluid filled sac) forming around the wisdom tooth • as part of other operations on the jaw where the wisdom tooth is “in the way” • there may be other less common reasons that your surgeon will discuss with you which are too unusual to go into detail about here Your surgeon should only recommend removal of your wisdom teeth when the benefits of taking the tooth out are greater than the risks of leaving the tooth where it is. -
