An impacted third molar is one of the most common dental abnormalities. Among the reasons for impaction the most common are: insufficient space, time of eruption, improper position of the tooth bud, and genetic disruptions. To investigate if runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), and msh homeobox 1 (MSX1) are differently expressed depending on the position of the molar, we studied 32 patients who had been referred for surgical removal. An orthopantomogram...

Craniomaxillofacial injuries account for a large number of emergency attendances and a substantial proportion of the workload of acute clinicians. Although data exist on frequency of involvement of the craniofacial bones, assessments of severity are lacking, and scoring systems for fractures of individual bones and complex craniomaxillofacial trauma often fail to include the frontobasal unit. To rectify this, we have devised a validated scoring system to evaluate the severity of trauma to this region...

Intraoperative imaging enables the surgeon to control the position of the implant during orbital reconstruction. Although it might improve surgical outcome and avoid the need for revision surgery, it may also increase the duration of the operation and the exposure to radiation. The goal of this study was to find out whether intraoperative imaging improves the position of the implant in reconstructions of the orbital floor and medial wall. Two surgeons reconstructed complex orbital fractures in 10...
