    Abstract The adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is a rare benign neoplasm that is typically treated through surgical enucleation and curettage. Any impacted tooth associated with the tumor are also extracted during the procedure. We present a case of AOT encompassing an impacted left maxillary central incisor in a 13-year-old male. The patient underwent routine treatment, but the tooth was orthodontically extruded using traction. Within two years, the incisor successfully attained its functional position in the arch, without any signs of recurrence. Preserving an impacted tooth associated with AOT is not common, and only a few cases have been reported in the literature. It is important to manage AOT conservatively and to save the associated tooth for both functional and aesthetic purposes. Long-term follow-up is crucial to monitor any potential recurrence. In summary, our case highlights the successful orthodontic management and preservation of an impacted tooth in a teenager with AOT.

    Abstract Introduction: Pediatric dental surgeries are associated with the emotions of fear, anxiety, and other behavioral disturbances of children that need to be managed. Sedation using drugs like dexmedetomidine (DEX) and midazolam (MID) is a common pharmacological behavior managing technique. We conducted this meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy of both these drugs in current literature.
    Methodology: A thorough literature search was conducted on PubMed, MEDLINE, Google Scholar, and Cochrane's database for randomized studies that compared sedative efficacy of dexmedetomidine with midazolam in children of 0-15 years of age undergoing dental surgeries. Sedation in children during dental procedure, when used as a premedication, at the time of separation from parents and at the time of mask induction, onset time, duration of anesthesia, and surgery were evaluated. The mean differences (MDs), odds ratio (OR), and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated both for continuous and dichotomous outcome data using random-effects model.
    Results: Seven studies met out inclusion criteria and were analyzed. Results of premedication with DEX was associated with more anxiolysis (OR=0.29, 95% CI: 0.17-0.52, p=0.0001; I
    Conclusion: DEX proved to be a better premedicant than MID for pediatric patients. No significant difference in efficacy of both sedative agents was observed in children undergoing dental treatment. More clinical trials need to be conducted to see its efficacy in dental surgeries in children of standardized ages and with standard doses.

    Abstract Introduction: Oral myiasis is a rare condition caused by Dipteran larvae that feed on living or dead tissues, ingested food or body fluids. It affects immunocompromised individuals with low socioeconomic status or those unable to maintain proper hygiene. Cases of oral myiasis are scarce but debilitating in children. We conducted a systematic review to understand the nature of disease, its causative factors, treatment and ways to prevent the occurrence of this condition among children.
    Methodology: The review was carried out in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis guidelines. A systematic electronic literature search was conducted on major databases using keywords in combination with Boolean Operators. Manuscripts discussing cases of oral myiasis in paediatric patients were included in the review.
    Results: The exhaustive literature search and evaluation of full texts revealed 32 studies that fulfilled the inclusion criteria. A total of 68 cases of oral myiasis were reported from 2 to 16 years of children, majorly involving gingiva of maxillary anterior region and palate.
    Conclusion: The dreadful condition of myiasis can be prevented by decreasing the number of flies, maintenance of good hygiene and by educating the susceptible population. Affected children must be managed by following proper treatment regimens.

    Abstract With the advent of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, a wide range of life-threatening maxillofacial fungal coinfections have also been observed in patients. We conducted this systematic review to collate and evaluate the data to enable clinicians to understand the disease pattern and types of mycosis and provide meticulous management of these infections in COVID-19 patients. The review was carried out in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis guidelines. A systematic electronic literature search was conducted on major databases using keywords in combination with Boolean Operators. Manuscripts discussing cases of maxillofacial fungal infections in COVID-19 patients were included. A total of 11 studies were systematically reviewed to assess the fungal coinfections in COVID-19 patients. Twenty-one cases of mucormycosis, 58 of candidiasis, and 1 each of aspergillosis and mixed infection were observed in the region of head and neck. Significant increase in invasive fungal infection is evident in patients suffering from COVID-19 which could be due to immunosuppression and other pre-existing comorbidities. Early diagnosis and intervention like systemic antifungals or surgical debridement is mandatory to reduce morbidity and mortality.

    Abstract Stylalgia also referred to as Eagle's or stylohyoid syndrome (first described by Watt Eagle) is a constellation of signs secondary to an elongated styloid process or due to mineralization of the stylohyoid or stylomandibular ligament or the posterior belly of the digastric muscle (Malik et al. in Iran J Otorhinolaryngol 30(6): 101, 2018). The Eagle's syndrome includes symptoms ranging from stylalgia (i.e., pain in the tonsillar fossa, pharyngeal or hyoid region) to foreign-body sensation in the throat, cervicofacial pain, otalgia or even increased salivation or giddiness. Diagnosis is primarily based on symptomatology, physical examination and radiographic investigations and should not be missed. However, palpation of tonsillar fossa with radiological demonstration of the elongated styloid process confirms the diagnosis. Surgical treatment by tonsillo-styloidectomy produces satisfactory results in stylalgia. (Malik et al. in Iran J Otorhinolaryngol 30(6):101, 2018).

    Abstract A supernumerary root is a developmental condition occurring due to disturbances in the Hertwig epithelial root sheath. Supernumerary roots are rare in primary mandibular molars, and the etiology is uncertain. However, it is crucial for dental practitioners to be aware that extra roots may be present in primary teeth and provide accurate diagnosis when they occur. An extra root or canal that is not identified during endodontic treatment can lead to treatment failure. The present report describes 2 cases of primary mandibular second molars with supernumerary roots showing carious involvement. In one of the patients, the molar had 2 supernumerary roots and was treated successfully by pulpectomy. In the other patient, the molar had 1 supernumerary root. The tooth was extracted, and a space maintainer was placed.

    Abstract Supernumerary teeth--teeth in excess of the normal dental complement--are usually asymptomatic, and their presence is detected incidentally on radiographs. Mesiodentes are the most common type of supernumerary teeth, followed by maxillary distomolars, maxillary lateral incisors, mandibular fourth molars, and maxillary premolars. Bilateral occurrence of supernumerary teeth is rare. When supernumerary teeth do occur bilaterally, they are most often associated with a syndrome such as Gardner syndrome or cleidocranial dysostosis. This article presents case reports of 4 nonsyndromic patients with different forms of bilateral supernumerary teeth: bilateral mesiodentes, bilateral paramolars, bilateral distomolars, and bilateral parapremolars. The supernumerary teeth were managed by extraction or clinical and radiographic monitoring.

    Abstract Despite the worldwide decline in dental caries, pit and fissure caries remains a cause of concern, and application of pit and fissure sealants is an important preventive measure. Due to the high wear rate of conventional unfilled sealants, various other materials have been tested for fissure sealing. The present meta-analysis was conducted to compare the effectiveness of flowable composite resins as a fissure sealant to that of conventional pit and fissure sealants. A literature search was performed in MEDLINE, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Google Scholar. Clinical trials comparing the efficacy of flowable composite resins as fissure sealants to that of conventional pit and fissure sealants on permanent teeth with a follow-up of 12 or 24 months were included in this meta-analysis. The retention rates of the 2 groups were evaluated with a random-effects model using Cochrane Reviews software (Cochrane RevMan, version 5.3). Seven studies were included in the final review. Flowable composite resins proved to be a significantly better fissure-sealing material after 1 year of follow-up (odds ratio = 0.47; 95% CI = 0.22-1.01; P = 0.05; degree of inconsistency [I

    Abstract Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the effect of premature loss of primary teeth in children of mixed dentition age on the prevalence of malocclusion in permanent dentition.
    Material and methods: A search was conducted in Medline through PubMed, Cochrane databases, Google Scholar, and Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) through March 2023. All observational studies that evaluated the association between premature loss of primary teeth and malocclusion in permanent dentition were included for analysis. Quality of studies was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa tool. Meta-analysis was conducted using Cochrane Review Manager (RevMan) Version 5.3. The association between different categories of malocclusion and premature loss of primary teeth was assessed using a random-effects model. Heterogeneity was explored through sensitivity analysis. Certainty of evidence was evaluated using GRADE analysis.
    Results: This meta-analysis showed that the premature loss of primary teeth significantly increases the prevalence of overall malocclusion in permanent dentition (OR=2.54, P=0.003; I
    Conclusion: This meta-analysis provides substantial evidence supporting the relationship between premature loss of primary teeth and malocclusion in permanent dentition. Notably, Class III malocclusions exhibited a significant association with premature loss of primary teeth.

    Abstract Aim: To conduct a systematic review evaluating the cases of oral submucous fibrosis in pediatric patients.
    Material and method: Systematic review was conducted using PRISMA guidelines. The article focused on oral submucous fibrosis in pediatric patients were included. A total of five manuscripts were included in our systematic review. The prevalence of OSMF in pediatric patients, gender distribution, causes, and clinical presentation were reviewed.
    Results: On systematically reviewing, a total of 10 cases of OSMF in pediatric patients were found. The youngest patient reported to be diagnosed with OSMF was of 2.5 years of age. Female preponderance was noticed. All the patients had the habit of areca nut chewing which subsequently led to fibrosis.
    Conclusion: Such a rapid increase in the rate of OSMF among pediatric population is a potential danger to the society. The habit of areca nut chewing is the major cause for this dreadful condition. Lack of health consciousness and low level of education are the major factors for initiation of this habit among children. Therefore it is imperative for the parents and school as well as government authorities to take serious actions.
