A branch of the trigeminal (5th cranial) nerve. The mandibular nerve carries motor fibers to the muscles of mastication and sensory fibers to the teeth and gingivae, the face in the region of the mandible, and parts of the dura.
A sensory branch of the MANDIBULAR NERVE, which is part of the trigeminal (5th cranial) nerve. The lingual nerve carries general afferent fibers from the anterior two-thirds of the tongue, the floor of the mouth, and the mandibular gingivae.
Two of the masticatory muscles: the internal, or medial, pterygoid muscle and external, or lateral, pterygoid muscle. Action of the former is closing the jaws and that of the latter is opening the jaws, protruding the mandible, and moving the mandible from side to side.
Partial or total surgical excision of the tongue. (Dorland, 28th ed)
A nerve which originates in the lumbar and sacral spinal cord (L4 to S3) and supplies motor and sensory innervation to the lower extremity. The sciatic nerve, which is the main continuation of the sacral plexus, is the largest nerve in the body. It has two major branches, the TIBIAL NERVE and the PERONEAL NERVE.
The 5th and largest cranial nerve. The trigeminal nerve is a mixed motor and sensory nerve. The larger sensory part forms the ophthalmic, mandibular, and maxillary nerves which carry afferents sensitive to external or internal stimuli from the skin, muscles, and joints of the face and mouth and from the teeth. Most of these fibers originate from cells of the TRIGEMINAL GANGLION and project to the TRIGEMINAL NUCLEUS of the brain stem. The smaller motor part arises from the brain stem trigeminal motor nucleus and innervates the muscles of mastication.
Diseases of the trigeminal nerve or its nuclei, which are located in the pons and medulla. The nerve is composed of three divisions: ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular, which provide sensory innervation to structures of the face, sinuses, and portions of the cranial vault. The mandibular nerve also innervates muscles of mastication. Clinical features include loss of facial and intra-oral sensation and weakness of jaw closure. Common conditions affecting the nerve include brain stem ischemia, INFRATENTORIAL NEOPLASMS, and TRIGEMINAL NEURALGIA.
Bony structure of the mouth that holds the teeth. It consists of the MANDIBLE and the MAXILLA.

Clinically safe dosage of felypressin for patients with essential hypertension. (1/166)

Hemodynamic changes were evaluated in patients with essential hypertension when felypressin of various concentrations was administered. The parameters studied were systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, heart rate, left ventricular systolic phase, and endocardial viability ratio. Results showed that blood pressure tended to increase, and the value of 1/pre-ejection period2 (PEP2) tended to decrease, upon administration of 3 ml of 2% propitocaine containing 0.06 international units/ml (IU/ml) of felypressin. Significant increase of blood pressure and decrease in 1/PEP2 was noted upon administration of 3 ml of anesthetic solution containing 0.13 IU/ml of felypressin. No ischemic change of the myocardium was detected even with the highest felypressin concentration (3 ml of 2% propitocaine containing 0.25 IU/ml of felypressin). These results suggest that the clinically safe dosage of felypressin for patients with essential hypertension is approximately 0.18 IU. This amount is equivalent to 6 ml of 3% propitocaine with 0.03 IU/ml of felypressin, which is a commercially available local anesthetic for dental use. It seems that the decrease in 1/PEP2 that occurred during blood pressure increase was due to the increase in afterload caused by contraction of the arterioles. Although in the present study no ischemic change was noted, special care should be taken to prevent myocardial ischemia in patients with severe hypertension.  (+info)

Prolonged diplopia following a mandibular block injection. (2/166)

A case is presented in which a 14-yr-old girl developed diplopia after injection of the local anesthetic Xylotox E 80 A (2% lidocaine with 1:80,000 epinephrine). Since the complication had a relatively slow onset and lasted for 24 hr, the commonly suggested explanations based on vascular, lymphatic, and neural route theories do not adequately fit the observations. No treatment, other than reassurance, was necessary, and the patient recovered fully.  (+info)

Efficacy of mandibular topical anesthesia varies with the site of administration. (3/166)

This study compared the threshold of pain sensitivity in the anterior mandibular mucobuccal fold with the posterior. This was followed by a comparison of the reduction of needle insertion pain in the anterior mucobuccal fold and the pterygo-temporal depression by either topical anesthesia or nitrous oxide inhalation. The pain threshold was determined by an analgometer, a pain-measuring device that depends on pressure readings; additionally, pain caused by a needle inserted by a normal technique was assessed using a visual analog scale (VAS). The threshold of pain was significantly lower in the incisor and canine regions than in the premolar and the molar regions (P < 0.001). Compared to a placebo, topical anesthesia significantly reduced the pain from needle insertion in the mucobuccal fold adjacent to the mandibular canine (P < 0.001), but did not significantly reduce pain in the pterygotemporal depression. The addition of 30% nitrous oxide did not significantly alter pain reduction compared to a control of 100% oxygen. These results suggest that topical anesthesia application may be effective in reducing the pain of needle insertion in the anterior mandibular mucobuccal fold, but may not be as effective for a standard inferior alveolar nerve block. The addition of 30% nitrous oxide did not lead to a significant improvement.  (+info)

Neural modulation of inflammatory reactions in dental tissues incident to orthodontic tooth movement. A review of the literature. (4/166)

This article reviews the current knowledge of the biological aspects of dental tissue changes incident to orthodontic tooth movement. The inflammatory nature of these tissue changes was first recognized in the early 1970s, and since then a number of morphological and quantitative investigations have been published in support of this view. The studies dealing with vascular and cellular dental tissue changes, as well as those concerned with inflammatory mediators present at sites of orthodontic tooth movement are systematized and presented accordingly. Special emphasis is placed upon the role of the sensory nerve fibres and their neuropeptides in the control, and development of an inflammatory process, i.e. their role in tooth movement.  (+info)

Anesthetic efficacy of a repeated intraosseous injection given 30 min following an inferior alveolar nerve block/intraosseous injection. (5/166)

To determine whether a repeated intraosseous (IO) injection would increase or prolong pulpal anesthesia, we measured the degree of anesthesia obtained by a repeated IO injection given 30 min following a combination inferior alveolar nerve block/intraosseous injection (IAN/IO) in mandibular second premolars and in first and second molars. Using a repeated-measures design, we randomly assigned 38 subjects to receive two combinations of injections at two separate appointments. The combinations were an IAN/IO injection followed approximately 30 min later by another IO injection of 0.9 ml of 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine and a combination IAN/IO injection followed approximately 30 min later by a mock IO injection. The second premolar, first molar, and second molar were blindly tested with an Analytic Technology pulp tester at 2-min cycles for 120 min postinjection. Anesthesia was considered successful when two consecutive readings of 80 were obtained. One hundred percent of the subjects had lip numbness with IAN/IO and with IAN/IO plus repeated IO techniques. Rates of anesthetic success for the IAN/IO and for the IAN/IO plus repeated IO injection, respectively, were 100% and 97% for the second premolar, 95% and 95% for the first molar, and 87% and 87% for the second molar. The repeated IO injection increased pulpal anesthesia for approximately 14 min in the second premolar and for 6 min in the first molar, but no statistically significant differences (P > 0.05) were shown. In conclusion, the repeated IO injection of 0.9 ml of 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine given 30 min following a combination IAN/IO injection did not significantly increase pulpal anesthesia in mandibular second premolars or in first and second molars.  (+info)

Course and composition of the nerves that supply the mandibular teeth of the rat. (6/166)

The rodent dentition has become an important model for investigations of interactions between dental tissues and peripheral neurons. Although experimental nerve injury has been widely used for such studies, there is uncertainty about the courses of nerve fibers supplying the mandibular teeth. In order to clarify this, we used a mixture of monoclonal antibodies against neurofilament proteins to enhance demonstration of nerve fibers so that small nerves could be readily traced in serial frozen sections of mandibles of Sprague Dawley rats ranging in age from embryonic day (E) 18 to postnatal day (P) 90. The 1st molar and anterior portion of the 2nd molar were innervated by small nerves that emerged as distinct branches of the IAN trunk at or near the mandibular foramen. In contrast, the nerve supply to the 3rd molar and posterior part of the 2nd molar was a branch of the lingual nerve that bypassed the mandibular canal altogether. The IAN trunk split into the mental nerve and a large branch to the incisor about 2 mm anterior to the mandibular foramen. Thick branches of the incisor nerve descended into the incisor socket to form a dense plexus of nerve fiber bundles extending along the length of the incisor periodontium. The sparse pulpal innervation of the incisor was provided by a few thin fascicles that emerged from the caudal portion of the periodontal plexus to enter the incisor apex. The dental branches of the IAN and lingual nerve seen in the adult were well established and readily identifiable at age E18 even though their targets were limited to the follicles of the developing teeth. These studies show that the trigeminal branches that supply the mandibular teeth can be identified at a wide range of ages as distinct nerves at a considerable distance proximal to their targets. This detailed information on the courses taken by the dental nerves can provide an anatomical basis for increased precision in characterization and perturbation of neural pathways from the molars and incisor.  (+info)

Primary afferent synaptic responses recorded from trigeminal caudal neurons in a mandibular nerve-brainstem preparation of neonatal rats. (7/166)

1. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings were made from the neurons in the superficial trigeminal caudal nucleus (substantia gelatinosa) visually identified in a parasagittal brainstem slice of neonatal rat with the mandibular nerve attached. 2. Stimulation of the mandibular nerve at 0.03 Hz evoked compound excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) or currents (EPSCs) in trigeminal caudal neurons. When stimulated at higher frequency (> 0.5 Hz), compound synaptic responses were largely attenuated and a small component remained. This component had a monosynaptic nature, following high-frequency stimulation (33-50 Hz) with a stable synaptic latency. 3. The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist D(-)-2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoic acid (D-AP5, 50 microM) largely attenuated the slow polysynaptic EPSCs. The AMPA/kainate receptor antagonist 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX, 10 microM) largely attenuated monosynaptic EPSCs, but only weakly attenuated slow polysynaptic EPSCs. Simultaneous application of CNQX and D-AP5 completely abolished EPSCs. The monosynaptic EPSCs isolated by repetitive stimulation had both NMDA and non-NMDA components. 4. Monosynaptic EPSCs having high threshold had a relatively long latency. During repetitive stimulation (0.5-5.0 Hz), EPSCs having high threshold and long latency underwent a stepwise potentiation in an activity-dependent manner. The conduction velocity estimated for these EPSCs fell into the range of C-fibres. The activity-dependent potentiation was observed for both non-NMDA and NMDA EPSCs and was accompanied by a significant decrease in the coefficient of variation of EPSC amplitude. 5. We suggest that the activity-dependent potentiation of EPSCs is induced presynaptically and that it may underlie the wind-up phenomenon, an activity-dependent hyperexcitability of the primary afferent C-fibres.  (+info)

Effects of different types of injury to the inferior alveolar nerve on the behavior of Schwann cells during the regeneration of periodontal nerve fibers of rat incisor. (8/166)

The present study reports on different regeneration patterns of axons and Schwann cells in the periodontal ligament of the rat incisor using immunohistochemistry of protein gene product 9.5 (PGP 9.5) and S-100 protein. Three kinds of injury (transection, crush and segmental resection) were applied to the inferior alveolar nerve. In normal animals, PGP 9.5- and S-100-immunoreactivities were detected in the axons and Schwann cell elements of periodontal Ruffini endings, respectively. They were restricted to the alveolus-related part, occurring only rarely in the tooth-related part and in the shear zone (the border between the alveolus-related and tooth-related parts). Both transection and segmental resection caused the complete disappearance of PGP 9.5-immunoreactive nerve fibers in the periodontal ligament, while a small number of them could be found following the crush injury. Regenerating PGP 9.5-reactive nerve fibers appeared at 5 days and 21 days following the transection and segmental resection, respectively. The regeneration of periodontal nerve fibers completed in a period of 21-28 days and 14-21 days following the transection and crush, respectively, but was not completed even at 56 days following the segmental resection. The behavior of Schwann cells during regeneration was similar after the different nerve injuries; spindle-shaped S-100-immunoreactive cells, presumably Schwann cells, appeared in the shear zone and the tooth-related part. These cells disappeared 5-7 days prior to the completion of the regeneration of axonal elements of the periodontal ligament following the transection and crush. Following the segmental resection, in contrast, spindle-shaped S-100-positive cells disappeared from the tooth-related part at 42 days, although the axonal regeneration of periodontal Ruffini endings proceeded even until 56 days. We thus conclude that the duration of the migration of Schwann cells depends on the state of the regeneration of axons.  (+info)

Inferior alveolar nerve block (abbreviated to IANB, and also termed inferior alveolar nerve anesthesia or inferior dental block) is a nerve block technique which induces anesthesia (numbness) in the areas of the mouth and face innervated by one of the inferior alveolar nerves which are paired on the left and right side. These areas are the skin and mucous membranes of the lower lip, the skin of the chin, the lower teeth and the labial gingiva of the anterior teeth, all unilaterally to the midline of the side on which the block is administered. However, depending on technique, the long buccal nerve may not be anesthetized by an IANB and therefore an area of buccal gingiva adjacent to the lower posterior teeth will retain normal sensation unless that nerve is anesthetized separately, via a (long) buccal nerve block. The inferior alveolar nerve is a branch of the mandibular nerve, the third division of the trigeminal nerve. This procedure attempts to anaesthetise the inferior alveolar nerve prior ...

Inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) anesthesia is one of the most common procedures in the dental clinic. Although this procedure is well known for its safety,
The large sensory root emerges from the lateral part of the trigeminal ganglion and exits the cranial cavity through the foramen ovale. Portio minor, the small motor root of the trigeminal nerve, passes under the trigeminal ganglion and through the foramen ovale to unite with the sensory root just outside the skull.[1]. The mandibular nerve immediately passes between tensor veli palatini, which is medial, and lateral pterygoid, which is lateral, and gives off a meningeal branch (nervus spinosus) and the nerve to medial pterygoid from its medial side. The nerve then divides into a small anterior and large posterior trunk. The anterior division gives off branches to three major muscles of mastication and a buccal branch which is sensory to the cheek. The posterior division gives off three main sensory branches, the auriculotemporal, lingual and inferior alveolar nerves and motor fibres to supply mylohyoid and the anterior belly of the digastric muscle. ...

Some anatomic patterns formed by the anterior border of the ascending ramus relative to the mandibular canal can cause nerve complications during surgery. We determined the frequency of obstructive anatomy in patients undergoing jaw surgery, and we described a perioperative method for a bilateral sagittal split osteotomy that ensured inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) protection. The anatomy of the anterior border of the ascending ramus of the mandible was examined on axial and cross-sectional cone beam computed tomographic images of 114 consecutive patients undergoing bilateral sagittal split osteotomies. The thickness of the anterior border of the ascending ramus determined whether the mandibular foramen could be visualized (pattern A) or was obscured (pattern B). Patients with pattern B anatomy received a perioperative procedure. Direct visualization of the mandibular foramen was achieved in 100% of patients with pattern A anatomy. We examined 228 anterior borders of the ascending ramus of the ...

In the dentaform model above, a small tag of the cortical bone has been left intact in order to show the position of the mental foramen (it looks like a teardrop). The mental foramen is also visible in the chin area on the diagram to the right. The mental nerve extends through the foramen and gives feeling to the lip and chin. The small nerves that branch off from the inferior alveolar nerve inside the mandible toward the teeth are known collectively as the inferior dental plexus. This plexus of nerves innervates the lower teeth and their associated gingiva.. In the illustration to the right, it can be seen that the inferior alveolar nerve is only one of three main branches into which the mandibular nerve divides (all three are pink in the diagram). The branch that seems to split to the back of the jaw really runs forward to the buccal (cheek) side of the teeth and is called the long buccal nerve. It innervates (gives feeling to) the buccal gingiva and the buccal mucosa. The branch that appears ...

The average dentist will see permanent nerve damage from this type of local anesthesia at least once and should, therefore, be aware of current knowledge about this complication.
INTRODUCTION. Anatomical structures such as mylohyoid sulcus, lingula of the mandible and mandibular foramen are important in dental practice and allow the professional to execute surgical and anesthetic procedures with more safety and less damages (Reitzik et al., 1976; Figún & Garino, 1989; Minarelli & Ramalho, 1991; Carvalho et al., 2003; Madeira, 2004).. The interest in locating the mandibular foramen dates from the beginning of local anesthesia for the desensitization of the inferior alveolar nerve that enabled the advance of anesthetic techniques (Figún & Garino; Madeira). According to Marzola et al. (2005), the literature is scarce regarding the measurement parameters (anatomical reference points) for locating the mandibular foramen in the medial surface of the mandibular ramus, what would allow professionals to improve the anesthetic technique in the region.. With the physiological growth, the facial bones suffer a remodeling process, causing changes in the foramen position over the ...
Inferior alveolar nerve and vessels anatomy with detailed description of Trigeminal Nerve, mandibular nerve, Anatomy of mandibular canal and mental foramen.
The mandibular canal runs obliquely downward and forward in the ramus, and then horizontally forward in the body, where it is placed under the alveoli and communicates with them by small openings. On arriving at the incisor teeth, it turns back to communicate with the mental foramen, giving off two small canals which run to the cavities containing the incisor teeth. Carries branches of inferior alveolar nerve and artery. Is continuous with the mental foramen (opents onto front of mandible) and mandibular foramen (on medial aspect of ramus). ...
Mental nerve is a general somatic afferent (sensory) nerve which provides sensation to the anterior aspects of the chin and lower lip as well as the buccal gingivae of the mandibular anterior teeth and the premolars. It is a branch of the posterior trunk of the inferior alveolar nerve, which is itself a branch of the mandibular division of the trigeminal nerve (CN V). The nerve emerges at the mental foramen in the mandibula, and divides beneath the Depressor anguli oris muscle into three branches: Continue reading →. ...
The mental nerve constitutes one of the terminal branches of the inferior alveolar nerve. It is made up of sensory fibers that convey sensitivityto parts of the gingiva, lower lip, and of the skin of the chin.The anterior loop is defined as that intraosseous section that passes the mental foramen. The nerve will then curve backwards before emerging, in fact, at the foramen.
INTRODUCTION: It has been recommended to place patients in an upright position after administration of an inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB), theoretically allowing the anesthetic to diffuse in an inferior direction and resulting in better pulpal anesthesia.

As a seasoned educator and content expert in the delivery of dental local anesthesia, I find most of my esteemed colleagues, myself included, share a profound frustration over the seemingly inadequate anesthesia delivered to achieve mandibular numbness. In simplest terms, the provision of mandibular anesthesia has most commonly been the job of the Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block (IANB); a job, I must say, that has left much to be desired. Of note, the IANB has a published failure rate between 31-81%5.. To put it frankly, the IANB is the equivalent of that old ex-boyfriend who is always there to answer your phone calls but soon leaves you feeling alone, disappointed, and questioning your judgment. We have all experienced this destructive relationship in some way, so Im here to tell you that you are not alone. I, too, dipped my toes in the hopeful waters as my eager are you numb? question was met with indifferent patient reactions. I, too, dropped my head in defeat as I felt the judging eyes of ...
A sympathetic nerve block involves injecting numbing medicine around the sympathetic nerves in the low back or neck. By doing this, the sympathetic nervous system in that area is temporarily switched off in hopes of reducing or eliminating pain. If pain is substantially improved after the block, then a diagnosis of sympathetically mediated pain is established. The therapeutic effects of the anesthetic can occur, at times, longer than would be normally expected. The goal is to reset the sympathetic tone to a normal state of regulation. If the initial block is successful, then additional blocks may be repeated if the pain continues to sequentially diminish.. Before the Procedure. ...

One frustrating aspect of daily dental practice for many dentists is consistent and profound anesthesia for lower molars. We were taught to administer an inferior alveolar nerve block… aka IANB. And, many of us have run into situations where the patient exhibits the classic signs of anesthesia, yet they still feel pain. So, we give them another block. And, wait. And, then HOPE that we got it that time.. Mind you, administering a painless IANB is quite the challenge. Its not a fun injection to receive.. There are other techniques such as Gow Gates and Akinosi techniques, sworn by some to be very effective. And, in their hands, Im sure they are. Ive never felt comfortable with either.. Years ago, I briefly tried the intra-osseous technique branded as the X-tip. With this gizmo, you actually punch a hole through the gingiva and cortical plate with the needle mounted on a slow-speed handpiece. It works, but it can be a bit scary / traumatic to both the patient and the dentist! Youve got ...

Facial nerve is the main cranial nerve for the innervation of facial expression muscles. Main trunk of facial nerve passes approximately 1 to 2 cm deep to tragal pointer. In some patients, where a patient has multiple operations, fibrosis due to previous operations may change the natural anatomy and direction of the branches of facial nerve. A 22-year-old male patient had 2 operations for mandibular reconstruction after gunshot wound. During the second operation, there was a possible injury to the marginal mandibular nerve and a nerve stimulator was used intraoperatively to monitor the nerve at the tragal pointer because the excitability of the distal segments remains intact for 24 to 48 hours after nerve injuries ...

Introduction: The aim of this prospective, randomized, double-blind study was to investigate the effect of articaine combined with ketamine on the success rate of inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) in posterior mandible teeth with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. Methods and Materials: Forty two adult patients with diagnosis of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis of a mandibular posterior tooth were selected. The patients received two cartridges of either containing 3.2 mL 4% articaine with epinephrine 1:200000 and 0.4 mL 50 mg/mL ketamine hydrochloride (A-ketamine group) or 3.2 mL 4% articaine with epinephrine 1:200000 and 0.4 mL normal saline (A-saline group) using conventional IANB injections. Access cavity preparation started 15 min after injection. Lip numbness was required for all the patients. Success was considered as no or mild pain on the basis of Heft-Parker visual analog scale recordings upon access cavity preparation or initial instrumentation. Data were analyzed by independent ...
Background: Mandibular third molars roots have close proximity to the inferior alveolar canal (IAC) and nerve. Inferior alveolar nerve injuries have been observed to occur more frequently when there is radiographic evidence of close contact of third molar roots to the IAC. Orthopan-tomogram is one of the commonly used diagnostic tools for evaluating the relationship between these two structures. There is lack of data regarding prevalence of these radiographic signs in Nepalese population. It was required to assess the reliability on the radiographic signs of relation-ship between the IAC and the third molar roots, to establish IAC as risk indicators for IAC exposure during extraction.. Methods: A single centre cross-sectional descriptive study was designed where demographic data and radiographic signs of third molar roots proximity to IAC were obtained from imaging software records and descriptive analysis was performed with SPSS version 20.. Results: One or more radiographic signs were ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Pharmacological properties of serotonin receptor subtypes mediating contraction of bovine inferior alveolar arteries. AU - ODonohue, H. A.. AU - Abel, P. W.. AU - Bockman, C. S.. PY - 2004/3. Y1 - 2004/3. N2 - Objective: To characterise the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor subtypes mediating contraction of the inferior alveolar artery. Additionally, to determine the role of cyclooxygenase products, nitric oxide, endothelium, monoamine oxidase and 5-HT uptake in modulating contraction of inferior alveolar arteries to 5-HT. Methods: Contractile responses to 5-HT were examined in vitro using ring segments of bovine inferior alveolar arteries. Affinity constants (KBs) of subtype-selective 5-HT receptor antagonists were determined to characterise the 5-HT receptor-subtypes causing contraction of inferior alveolar arteries. Results: In 100nM ketanserin or 30nM spiperone, 5-HT caused a biphasic contraction best-fit by a two-site curve model, where one site was antagonist-sensitive ...
Mental nerve is a sensory nerve which provides sensation to the front of the chin and lower lip as well as the buccal gingivae of the mandibular anterior teeth and the premolars. It is a branch of the posterior trunk of the inferior alveolar nerve, which is itself a branch of the mandibular division of the trigeminal nerve (CN V). The nerve emerges at the mental foramen in the mandible, and divides beneath the Depressor anguli oris muscle into three branches: one descends to the skin of the chin. two ascend to the skin and mucous membrane of the lower lip. These branches communicate freely with the facial nerve. The mental nerve can be blocked with local anesthesia, a procedure used in surgery of the chin, lower lip and buccal mucosa from midline to the second premolar. In this technique, local anesthetic is infiltrated in the soft tissue surrounding the mental foramen. This article incorporates text in the public domain from the 20th edition of Grays Anatomy (1918) Anatomy photo:23:st-0610 at ...
Purpose: There have been reports regarding the various factors associated with the level of discomfort and recovery from neurosensory symptoms in patients with trigeminal nerve injury. However, the contributing factors remain uncertain and poorly understood. The purpose of this paper was to investigate the possible association between various factors expected to affect neurosensory discomfort and recovery in patients with mandibular nerve injury after dental implant surgery. Methods: Eighty-nine post-dental implant surgery patients with mandibular nerve injury were enrolled in this retrospective analysis. A medical records review of the patients was done to determine if the patients improvement was related to pain intensity, the length of time between the injury and removal of the implant or the depth of penetration of the implant into the mandibular canal as determined by cone-beam computed tomography. Results: There was no significant linear relationship between pain intensity and symptomatic ...
TY - JOUR. T1 - Case report of unique anastomosis between facial and inferior alveolar arteries. AU - Bhattacharya, Arunabh. AU - Sharma, Ramaswamy N. AU - Armstrong, Caitlin. AU - Solis, Laura. PY - 2020/5/1. Y1 - 2020/5/1. N2 - Purpose: Understanding anatomical variations of the facial artery and its branches is important for dental and medical practitioners. Methods: Routine cadaveric dissection of the head and neck was performed to demonstrate the origin and branches of the facial artery. Results: Facial artery emerged from a common linguofacial trunk off the external carotid artery. On the face, the facial artery first gave off a pre-masseteric branch. Immediately after, an aberrant artery emerged from the facial artery that coursed along the ramus of the mandible, which upon further dissection and examination was found to anastomose with inferior alveolar artery within the ramus of the mandible. Conclusions: We report a unique anastomosis between facial and inferior alveolar arteries, ...

Nerve repositioning or nerve lateralisation is used in cases when a patient needs to have a number of missing lower back teeth replaced, but the patients bone mass is not tall enough for dental implants to be placed successfully.. Nerve repositioning or nerve lateralization involves the repositioning of the inferior alveolar nerve, which is the nerve that supplies feeling to a patients chin and lower lip areas. The placement of dental implants in patients who have experienced significant bone loss in the lower jaw area may not be possible without damaging the inferior alveolar nerve - which is why the movement or repositioning of this nerve is needed. This technique allows the whole height of the lower jaw to be made available for the placement of longer dental implants.. Nerve repositioning is a dental procedure used in cases when the patient has missing teeth in the back end of his lower jaw area, and requires a dental implant to be placed in this particular area. A nerve repositioning ...

Reasons for bone grafting. There are a wide variety of reasons why bone grafting may be the best option for restoring the jaw bone.. Dental implants - Implants are the preferred replacement method for missing teeth because they restore full functionality to the mouth; however, implants need to be firmly anchored to the jawbone to be effective. If the jawbone lacks the necessary quality or quantity of bone, bone grafting can strengthen and thicken the implant site.. Sinus lift - A sinus lift entails elevating the sinus membrane and grafting bone onto the sinus floor so that implants can be securely placed.. Ridge augmentation - Ridges in the bone can occur due to trauma, injury, birth defects, or severe periodontal disease. The bone graft is used to fill in the ridge and make the jawbone a uniform shape.. Nerve repositioning - If the inferior alveolar nerve requires movement to allow for the placement of implants, a bone grafting procedure may be required. The inferior alveolar nerve allows ...

Diagnostics, Diagnosis, and Treatment: Following induction of general anesthesia and tracheal intubation, dental radiographs were performed to confirm the presence of appropriate adult dentition and to assess the roots of deciduous teeth. Bilateral inferior alveolar nerve blocks were performed with 0.5% Marcaine. A gingival incision was created along the root of the deciduous canine teeth and the alveolar bone was exposed using a periosteal elevator. Gentle elevation on the mesial and distal surfaces of the teeth was performed with deciduous elevators, taking care to avoid the lingual aspect and damaging the underlying tooth bud. The teeth were removed in their entirety and the gingiva was closed in a tension-free, simple interrupted pattern with 5--0 Monocryl. The deciduous incisors were similarly extracted with deciduous elevators, without requiring gingival incisions. Post-extraction radiographs were performed to confirm complete extraction. ...

How are panoramic X-rays taken?. The panoramic X-ray provides the dentist with an ear-to-ear two-dimensional view of both the upper and lower jaw. The most common uses for panoramic X-rays are to reveal the positioning of wisdom teeth and to check whether dental implants will affect the mandibular nerve (the nerve extending toward the lower lip).. The Panorex equipment consists of a rotating arm that holds the X-ray generator, and a moving film attachment that holds the pictures. The head is positioned between these two devices. The X-ray generator moves around the head taking pictures as orthogonally as possible. The positioning of the head and body is what determines how sharp, clear and useful the X-rays will be to the dentist. The pictures are magnified by as much as 30% to ensure that even the minutest detail will be noted.. Panoramic X-rays are an important diagnostic tool and are also valuable for planning future treatment. They are safer than other types of X-rays because less radiation ...

Treatment plan. 1st Surgery: Under general anesthesia and nasotracheal intubation, the internal field is performed and a pharyngeal packing is placed. Intermaxillary fixation is performed with intermaxillary fixation screws and 0.5mm wire.. The infiltration of the region with Mepivacaine at 2: Surgery is begun with an intraoral approach, with an incision that circumscribes 4.6 and 4.7 teeth per vestibular and lingual and ascends the anterior edge of the branch, taking into account the planned margins. Subperiosteal take-off is performed at level 44 and a safety margin of 1cm above the tumor is sought in the branch. By the intraoral approach the osteotomy with strawberry number 8 is started, under irrigation with physiological serum at the proximal and distal ends of the lesion. The extraoral approach is then performed in the mandibular sub-angle region and the mandible is accessed by blunt dissection, ligating the artery and facial vein, and preserving the mandibular nerve branch of the Facial. ...
Panoramic X-rays (also known as Panorex® or orthopantomograms) are wraparound photographs of the face and teeth. They offer a view that would otherwise be invisible to the naked eye. X-rays in general, expose hidden structures, such as wisdom teeth, reveal preliminary signs of cavities, and also show fractures and bone loss.. Panoramic X-rays are extraoral and simple to perform. Usually, dental X-rays involve the film being placed inside the mouth, but panoramic film is hidden inside a mechanism that rotates around the outside of the head.. Unlike bitewing X-rays that need to be taken regularly, panoramic X-rays are generally only taken on an as-needed basis. A panoramic X-ray is not conducted to give a detailed view of each tooth, but rather to provide a better view of the sinus areas, nasal areas and mandibular nerve. Panoramic X-rays are extremely versatile in dentistry, and are used to:. ...
Unlike any other cetacean, the pakicetid outer ear was unspecialized and similar to that of land mammals. The external auditory meatus opens low on the side of the skull, and the mandible has a small mandibular foramen. In amphibious mammals, the external auditory meatus commonly opens dorsally. The mandibular foramen of late Eocene and Neogene cetaceans is large and transmits underwater sound to the middle ear. Enlargement also occurs in Ambulocetus, but the foramen is small in pakicetids. The pakicetid middle ear was highly specialized and included pachy-osteosclerotic ossicles, an involucrum and a plate-like sigmoid process. These features have been interpreted as adaptations for underwater hearing, and it has been suggested that the presence of an involucrum facilitates underwater high-frequency transmission in modern odontocetes even though the involucrum is also present in low-frequency mysticetes. In the case of pakicetids, the absence of air sinuses insulating the ears, the firm fusion ...
Dental implants have been evolving over years. Dental implants of the modern day have become more refined, predictable and simple. Nowadays, we have options to carry out single stage, immediate loading implants.. It is also possible to place dental implants in patients in whom it was not possible earlier due to anatomical reasons such as proximity to vital structures (especially the sensory nerves supplying the lower jaw - the inferior alveolar nerve and the maxillary sinuses).. Implants systems such as the KOS (King of Singlepiece), the BCS (Basal Cortical Screw) and the BOI (Basal Osseo Integrated) implants are the recent introductions into the world of dental implants which are extremely predictable, simple and highly economical.. These implants also present with a unique opportunity where they can be splinted to adjacent teeth unlike the previous ones (delayed loading) where this splinting could not be done.. ...

A nerve block injection is a common procedure used for situations like when a patient needs temporary relief from pain or help to manage chronic pain during a healing process.
One of the possible complications of dental implant treatment is fracture of implant components. Metal fatigue and biomechanical overload seem to be the most common causes of fractured implant components.,br/, We experienced a case of retaining screw loosening and consequent fracture of an implant. In this case, implants had been installed in the mandibular molar region, with an inferior alveolar nerve repositioning procedure. Five years after functional loading, a fracture of the distally placed implant fixture was observed.,br/, The fractured surface was observed by scanning electron microscope(SEM). The SEM analysis showed evidence of metal fatigue, which is thought to be the most common cause of implant fracture.The finite element methods(FEM)model was established based on this case, and then the stress distribution in and around the implants was investigated. The results showed that the non-fractured fixture had a higher concentration of stresses than the fractured one. Higher tensile ...

According to the literature, the frequency of the bifid mandibular canals as seen on two-dimensional imaging appears to range from 0.08% [20] to 8.3% [8]. This suggests that there are major disparities in existing studies. All the studies of frequency are based on panoramic images which tend to overestimate the presence of these duplications in part due to the unreliability of panoramic radiographs for this type of findings and on the other part due to the variations in the appearance of the bifidity. The reason of the high frequency can also be attributed to the superimposition of different structures on 2D imaging. The presence of a deep mylohyoid groove can account for the characteristic images found on panoramic radiographs [4,9,24]. This possibility has been confirmed by Sanch is [25], who specifies that false double canals can be observed on two-dimensional radiographs due to the impression of the mylohyoid nerve on the medial surface of the mandible as it turns towards the floor of the ...

Medical literature is not unified in the description of the morphology of the mental foramen. Different anatomy and radiology text books give contradicting statements regarding the morphometric characteristics of the mental foramen; thereby depicting variable racial trends. 6 Africans: The mental foramen was observed to exhibit dimorphism; it was 14.89 mm above the lower border of the mandible in males and 14.21 mm in females. Also, it was 16.16 mm below the alveolar ridge in males and 15.66 mm in females. The average size of the long and the short axis of the foramen were 5.66mm and 3.97mm respectively in the male and 4.99 mm and 3.87 mm respectively in the female mandibles.]12These measurements were statistically similar to another study on mandibles from Alagoas state.18 Tanzanians: The mental foramen was frequently located below the apex of the second premolar and between the 2 nd premolar and 1st molar. A significantly less common location was between 1 st and 2 nd premolars and below 1 st ...
In early December 2003, 6½-month-old Ian Moise began showing signs of being sick. He awoke from his morning nap and vomited. His parents took him to the pediatrician and were told that it appeared that Ian had the flu. The pediatrician said that if his symptoms did not improve to schedule a follow-up visit. As the evening wore on Ians breathing became labored and his temperature increased. His parents decided to take him to an urgent care facility that specializes in children. That doctor told them that Ian had tested negative for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), but tested positive for influenza. His parents were told to treat his symptoms and follow up in 48 hours if he did not show signs of improvement.. After a long night Ians parents thought he seemed to be getting better. His breathing was not labored; rather it sounded more like a sigh. His temperature had also dropped. They thought the worst was over; however, Ian went into respiratory arrest on that Wednesday afternoon. They ...
