BACKGROUND: Although orbital fractures are common, prediction of outcomes in orbital surgery can be quite challenging. PURPOSE: We aim to identify predictors of intraoperative difficulty, operating time, and postoperative examination abnormalities in subjects undergoing post-traumatic orbital reconstructions. STUDY DESIGN, SETTING, AND SAMPLE: This is a retrospective cohort study of all consecutive orbital operations performed at a private, Level 1 trauma center in Portland, Oregon, USA over an 82-month period...

Masticatory muscle hypertrophy is a benign clinical anomaly which leads to facial asymmetry or a squared face appearance. We report a case of masticatory muscle hypertrophy, particularly on the right side, that was successfully treated by neurectomy of the right masseteric nerve through an extra-oral approach. Clinical examination showed significant aesthetic improvement of the facial symmetry with complete paralysis and atrophy of the right masseter muscle. The impaired postoperative function of the frontal branch of the right facial nerve was fully restored 10 weeks postoperatively...

PURPOSE: Mandibular second molar (M2M) impaction is a serious eruption disorder. The purpose of this systematic review was to analyze the therapeutic approaches for M2M impaction. The objective of the meta-analysis was to summarize the success of the surgical, surgical-orthodontic, and orthodontic treatment. METHODS: A PRISMA-guided search strategy was conducted by 2 authors in 5 databases up to January 2023. Randomized and nonrandomized clinical trials were considered...

PURPOSE: Impacted maxillary canines occur in up to 3% of the population and their eruption is of great importance in establishing, maintaining the shape, aesthetics, and function of the dental arch; hence, surgical exposure of canines to align them is a common surgical procedure. This study identifies the frequency and the statistically significant factors associated with successful surgical exposure of impacted maxillary canines and the relative risk factors for repeat surgery. METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort study of 182 patients who underwent surgical exposure of impacted maxillary canines and orthodontic alignment, over a 5-year period between 2014 and 2018...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Qi Zhang, Bingwu Wang, Shumeng Zhang, Dongyang Ma
BACKGROUND: Due to the complex anatomical morphology and lack of anatomic markers on the surface of zygomatic complex (ZMC), the treatment results of ZMC fractures are often suboptimal. PURPOSE: The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of intraoperative computed tomography (ICT) in the treatment of unilateral ZMC fractures, and further study the feasibility of ICT to replace early postoperative Computed Tomography (CT). STUDY DESIGN, SETTING, AND SAMPLE: The investigators designed a retrospective cohort study...

BACKGROUND: Jehovah's Witnesses (JW) population are members of a religious group that refuses blood transfusion. This presents a dilemma for surgical teams when performing major surgical procedures on these patients. PURPOSE: This study aimed to assess the safety and feasibility of undergoing microvascular free flaps for maxillofacial reconstruction in JW patients and whether the type of underlying pathology impacts outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Condylar adaptations following orthognathic surgery remain an area of interest. Prior studies do not use 3-dimensional imaging modalities and lack standardization in the choice of osteotomy and movement when assessing condylar changes. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to use 3-dimensional cephalometry to measure the association between osteotomy type (sagittal split osteotomy [SSO] vs vertical ramus osteotomy [VRO]) and changes in condylar volume and position...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Fabio G Ritto, Tyler Mealy, João Vitor Canellas, Bonnie L Padwa, Kevin S Smith
BACKGROUND: Complete unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) creates a continuity defect on the nasal floor, which contributes to nasal asymmetry. Traditionally, piriform rim symmetry has been evaluated by comparing cleft and noncleft sides. No study has compared the magnitude of perinasal asymmetry in UCLP patients with a control group of patients without clefts. PURPOSE: To address the following question: In UCLP patients, whose alveolar clefts are reconstructed with alveolar bone grafts (ABGs), is the magnitude of remaining piriform rim asymmetry similar to that of patients without UCLP? STUDY DESIGN SETTING, SAMPLE: This is a retrospective cohort study that used the CBCT of UCLP and non-UCLP patients to evaluate the piriform rim symmetry...

JOURNAL ARTICLE

BACKGROUND: Liposomal bupivacaine (LB) is a long-acting local anesthetic used for postsurgical analgesia to reduce pain and the need for opioid pain medication. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to assess patient interest in the use of LB as an alternative to opioid pain medication following third molar extraction. STUDY DESIGN, SETTING, SAMPLE: A cross-sectional, questionnaire-based study was performed. Study subjects included patients 17 years old or greater who presented to the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery clinic at Thomas Jefferson University for third molar extraction from May 2019 through January 2020...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Michael Miloro
This technical note describes an innovation that addresses a clinical problem in inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) reconstruction. In some cases of mandibular resection, there is a need to resect a significant amount of the IAN along with the pathologic lesion and this may result in a lack of a distal nerve stump for completion of the neural anastomosis. This technical note offers the option to perform the distal neurorrhaphy into the residual soft tissues with the expectation that axonal sprouting will occur and result in lower lip and chin sensory reinnervation...

BACKGROUND: Arthrocentesis is a minimally invasive procedure with reported efficacy when used for lysis and lavage of the joint for symptomatic internal derangement, irrespective of the technique utilized. PURPOSE: The purpose of the study was to determine if the single puncture arthrocentesis (SPA) is superior to double puncture arthrocentesis (DPA) with respect to pain reduction and improved maximal mouth opening (MMO) for subjects with acute disc displacement without reduction...

BACKGROUND: Management of Class III (Cl III) dentoskeletal phenotype is often expert-driven. PURPOSE: The aim is to identify critical morphological features in postcircumpubertal Cl III treatment and appraise the predictive ability of innovative machine learning (ML) algorithms for adult Cl III malocclusion treatment planning. STUDY DESIGN: The Orthodontics Department at the University of Illinois Chicago undertook a retrospective cross-sectional study analyzing Cl III malocclusion cases (2003-2020) through dental records and pretreatment lateral cephalograms...

BACKGROUND: TikTok (ByteDance, Beijing, China) is the fastest growing social media application (SMA) to date and has become a major source of information for medicine. The rising use of media platforms by patients and practitioners alike plays a significant role in the perception of healthcare.

PURPOSE: Penicillins are a potent antibiotic in managing odontogenic infections, but 10% of the population is labelled as allergic to these drugs. This has limited their use and resulted in increased utilization of health care resources as well as complications associated with alternative antibiotics. The purpose of the study was to measure the association between patients labeled as penicillin allergic and treatment outcomes in a sample of patients treated for complicated odontogenic infections...
