    Outcome of Mandibular Dentigerous Cysts 1 to 10 Years After Decompression Using a Custom-Made Appliance
    (W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2021) MENTEŞ, ALİ RECAİ; Ugurlu, Faysal; Akyuz, Serap; Mentes, Ali
    Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the long-term results of mandibular dentigerous cysts treated with decompression using a custom-made appliance. Patients and Methods: This retrospective study included 34 patients with dentigerous cysts who were treated as outpatients at the Faculty of Dentistry, Marmara University. Medical history, complaints, intraoral and extraoral clinical findings, treatment time, and complications of these patients were collected. Results: The average age of the patients was 7.94 years. Three tooth buds (canine, first permanent premolar [P1], and second permanent premolar) in 2 cases, two tooth buds in 7 cases (P1 and second permanent premolar in 6 cases and P1 and canine in 1 case), and one tooth bud in 25 cases were related to the cyst. The mean decompression time was 5.97 months (range, 3 to 9 months). No major complications occurred during or after decompression. No evidence of infection, breakdown and/or dehiscence of the soft tissue, or inferior alveolar nerve paresthesia was observed. The complications and complaints were minor and straightforward to resolve. Conclusions: Decompression is a very effective and successful method for the treatment of mandibular dentigerous cysts.

    Retrospective evaluation of traction time for impacted dilacerated maxillary central incisors in mixed dentition
    (2023-04-01) ŞEN YAVUZ, BETÜL; YILMAZ, MÜESSER AHU; HAZNEDAROĞLU, EDA; UĞURLU, FAYSAL; MENTEŞ, ALİ RECAİ; Şen Yavuz B., Yılmaz M. A., Haznedaroğlu E., Sezer B., Okutan A. E., Sezgin B. I., Özçelik M., Sezgin G. İ., Uğurlu F., Menteş A. R.
    PurposesThis study aimed to contribute to understanding the factors affecting the time of traction treatment of impacted dilacerated maxillary central incisors.MethodsThis retrospective study included children aged 8 – 11 years with a history of trauma, who applied to the pediatric dentistry clinics of Marmara University, School of Dentistry, between December 2013 and December 2019, and were treated for unilateral impacted dilacerated maxillary upper central incisors. Children\"s age, sex, digital panoramic radiographs, cone-beam computed tomography, and intraoral photographs were retrieved from electronic dental health records. The effects of children\"s age, sex, the direction of impacted teeth, distance of the teeth to the top of the alveolar crest, and root dilaceration level on traction time were analyzed by Mann-Whitney U test and Spearman\"s rank correlation coefficient test.ResultsThe inverse position of the incisors significantly increased the traction time (P = 0.012). However, the traction time did not differ according to the sex of the children (P = 0.707) or the level of root dilaceration (P = 0.429). No correlation was observed between the traction time and the age of children (P = 0.644) or the distance of the incisors from the top of the alveolar crest (P = 0.397).ConclusionsIn cases of the forced eruption of for the impacted dilacerated maxillary central incisors, the direction of the teeth should be evaluated when deciding on the treatment plan, as it may affect the treatment time.
