The development of the tooth involves many complex biological processes, including epithelialmesenchymal interactions, differentiation, morphogenesis, fi brillogenesis and mineralization. After 37 days of development, a continuous band of thickened epithelium forms around the mouth in presumptive upper and lower jaws from the fusion of separate plates of thickened epithelium–primary epithelial ...

Ewing’s tumor is a disease of children and adolescents with rare occurrence after the third decade of life. Involvement of the jaws is uncommon. The clinical and radiographic presentations are highly variable and may mimic an inflammatory lesion. An example of metastatic Ewing’ s tumor to the maxilla in a 13-year-old female is presented. A review of Ewing’s tumor of the jaws is presented with e...

The aim was to study the analysis of cephalometric images patients with distal occlusion dentition. parameters obtained on were studied, divided into groups according principle measurements (linear, angular) and their morphological affiliation (cranial, gnathic, dentoalveolar). Analysis angular linear indicators malocclusion class II dentition made it possible determine mutual influence cranial...

Pathologic fractures of the jaw are usually associated with aggressive, destructive lesions or malignant lesions of the jaws. Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABC) of the jaws are benign lesions which normally do not cause destruction to such an extent. This article reports a relatively aggressive ABC of the mandible in a 19 year-old male which destroyed the buccal and lingual cortices as well as th...
