The purpose of this study was to introduce a novel individualized flap design method for large anterior floor of the mouth (AFOM) defect reconstruction, review experience with the use of this flap design method for large AFOM defect reconstruction, and assess its functional results. A retrospective study of patients who received large AFOM defect reconstruction with free flaps was conducted. There was a cohort of patients who were treated using the novel individualized flap design method and a cohort without flap design...

AIM: To assess the impact of untreated dental caries and its severity on the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of Kuwaiti preschool children and their caregivers. METHODS: Participants were 4- and 5-year-old kindergarten children attending preselected public schools from one of the Governorates in Kuwait. Early childhood caries (ECC) was evaluated by clinical examinations and presented using decayed, missed, filled teeth/surface (dmft/dmfs). The clinical consequences of untreated dental caries were assessed using the pufa (pulp, ulcers, fistula, abscess) index for primary teeth...

UNLABELLED: The retromandibular anterior trans-parotid (RAT) approach and a triangular-positioned double mini-plate osteosynthesis (TDO) technique have been reported from Innsbruck Medical University. This minimally invasive technique involves direct visualization of the condyle and is associated with lower incidence of facial palsy. METHODS: A retrospective review was performed on the RAT approach and TDO technique conducted by a surgeon and team at two hospitals in Tokyo during a period of 3 years and 10 months...

OBJECTIVE: For alveolar bone grafting (ABG), we have been performing surgery using a technique in which a cortical bone lining iliac endplate is applied to the anterior nasal aperture inferior margin. Herein, we used conventional and cortical bone lining techniques to examine the postoperative bone-bridge morphology after ABG. STUDY DESIGN: Fifty-five unilateral patients who underwent ABG at our clinic from October 2012 to March 2019 were included. We used postoperative CT data to compare the labiolingual width of the grafted bone and anterior-posterior and vertical shapes of the nasal aperture inferior margin with respect to the ungrafted side...

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to analyze the application value of a modified tragus edge incision and transmasseteric anteroparotid approach to condyle reconstruction. METHODS: Condyle reconstruction was performed in 16 patients (9 females and 7 males) with modified tragus edge incision and transmasseteric anteroparotid approach. After regular follow-up, the function of condyle reconstruction was evaluated by clinical indicators, such as parotid salivary fistula, facial nerve function, mouth opening, occlusal relationship, and facial scar...

BACKGROUND: The flap based on the facial-angular vessels (FAVs) has several names and cannot capture the hemodynamics. AIMS: This study was performed to assess the reliability of various types of flaps based on the FAVs for reconstructing oral and maxillofacial defects following cancer ablation. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Forty-three oral and maxillofacial defects were reconstructed with facial-angular artery island flaps (FAAIF, n =14), including V-Y advancement-type and rotation-type flaps based on FAVs and reverse-flow FAAIFs (R-FAAIF, n =29), including ipsilateral, contralateral rotation, full-thickness, and folded types, based on distal FAVs following cancer ablation...

The pandemic caused by coronavirus has resonated throughout different levels of health care in Brazil and, in this context, the present research aimed to evaluate this impact on tertiary dental care provided by the Unified Health System (SUS). Therefore, an ecological study was conducted with data obtained from the Hospital Information System processed by the Portal of the Department of Informatics of SUS. The sample consisted of patients of all sexes and age groups, whose Hospital Admission Authorizations (AIHs) were approved for dental tertiary care procedures from January 2015 to December 2020...

BACKGROUND: Early childhood caries (ECC) is a serious condition that has a negative impact on young children's quality of life. Mothers' perceived need for oral health care plays an important role in their children's oral health behavior. This study aimed to compare mother and child self-perceived and dentist-evaluated needs for oral health care. METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 266 preschool children aged 5 years old and their mothers. A self-administered questionnaire to the mothers and interviews with the children were used to assess the perceived needs of oral health care...

BACKGROUND: Incision scars and postoperative cosmesis are critical in the management of benign parotid tumors. Traditional incisions have a typical visible scar in the retromandibular area or require wide skin flaps. PURPOSE: In this study, we introduced a new surgical approach called the tri-split flap approach and evaluated its technical feasibility and surgical outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eleven patients with clinically benign parotid gland tumors underwent the tri-split flap approach and were followed for six to ten months postoperatively...

The sternocleidomastoid (SCM) flap has been used for a long time in protective coverage of major vessels, reconstruction of intraoral pharyngeal, closure of pharyngo-cutaneous fistulas, and augmentation of soft tissue defects in the oral and maxillofacial region. However, this flap is not yet commonly used due to doubtful blood supply to the flap. This flap offers favorable esthetic results, combined flap, rich vascularization, and the possibility of shifting the two heads of the muscle. Thus, this flap has been used broadly in the maxillofacial region to reconstruct the defects of the post-parotidectomy, mandible, pharynx, and floor of the mouth defects...

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (L-DP) is the standard procedure for treating left-sided pancreatic tumors. Stapler closure of the pancreas is the preferred method for L-DP; however, postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) remains a challenging problem. The present study aimed to compare the surgical outcomes of staple closure using a reinforcing stapler (RS) and transection using an ultrasonic dissector followed by hand-sewn (HS) closure in a fish-mouth manner in pure L-DP and to determine independent perioperative risk factors for clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF)...

BACKGROUND: Retromolar trigone (RMT) cancer is a rare malignancy, which develops in a narrow area of the oral cavity. Surgical intervention requires wide excision and appropriate reconstruction usually with a free tissue transfer. Little has been published regarding the ideal microvascular reconstruction, mainly focusing on radial forearm and anterolateral thigh free flap. The medial sural artery perforator flap (MSAP) is not new for head and neck reconstruction but its use for RMT reconstruction has not been previously explored...

Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) has had an expanded role in the management of complex wounds including its increasing use for complex wounds in the head and neck region. Challenges for use in the head and neck region include variations in surface topography and the proximity of sensitive mouth, nose, ear, eye, and tracheal openings. Despite these challenges, NPWT has been used in the head and neck immediately following free flap surgery, to prepare wounds for skin grafting or local flaps, to treat orocutaneous and pharyngocutaneous fistulas, to treat necrotizing and deep neck space infections, to temporize and palliate, and to treat chronic wounds with exposed bone and hardware among others...

Identifying a submandibular (Wharton's) duct punctum often hinders sialendoscopy; however, there is a paucity of evidence on whether the appearance of Wharton's duct papilla impacts the sialendoscopic procedure. A classification of Wharton's duct papillae based on the macroscopic appearance, size of dilatation probes, and sialendoscopic approach was proposed herein. The classification describing four main types of papillae, A, B, C, and D, was prospectively evaluated on 351 Wharton's duct papillae in 315 patients...
