AIM To determine oral and dental problems in children who are receiving long term intravenous nutrition at home. MATERIALS AND METHODS DESIGN Children who had been at home on parenteral nutrition (PN) for a period of at least 3 months were recruited from the intestinal failure clinic database of a large tertiary nutrition centre. The parents were contacted by email, face to face or telepho...

Many reactions in the skin caused by drugs would appear to be due to immunological mechanisms. Simple chemical sensitizers become antigenic after combination with carrier proteins. The bonds between the hapten and the protein are not necessarily covalent, and it is likely that weaker linkages such as hydrogen bonding or Van der Waal's forces may be involved. Reactions may be due to humoral anti...

Supernumerary teeth develop from excessive proliferation and development of the dental lamina. can cause several problems, including ectopic eruption, delayed root resorption adjacent teeth, diastema. in infancy are rare have rarely been reported.

In 1975, E. R. Robinson conducted the hallmark study of the behavior of classical nova light curves before eruption, and this work has now become part of the standard knowledge of novae. He made three points; that 5 out of 11 novae showed pre-eruption rises in the years before eruption, that one nova (V446 Her) showed drastic changes in the variability across eruptions, and that all but one of ...

AIM The purpose of this case report is to describe the combined surgical and orthodontic treatment of two cases with an impacted maxillary central incisor and canine in the same quadrant and to discuss the causal relationship between them. BACKGROUND The most common causes of canine impactions are usually the result of one or more factors such as a long path of eruption, tooth size-arch lengt...

third molar eruption is an unpredictable event. occasionally, mandibular third molars undergo angular changes in young adults. this rotational drift is of unknown etiology, is not predictable and may facilitate the eruption or may make the impaction worse. a rare case is presented with severe rotational drift of a mesioangularly impacted mandibular third molar.

Background: Pregnancy-specific dermatoses represent a group of pruritic skin diseases unique to pregnancy and the most common types are polymorphic eruption of pregnancy and pemphigoid gestationis. It is difficult to obtain a histopathological diagnosis for polymorphic eruption of pregnancy and pemphigoid gestationis in the lack of immunofluorescence because of their similar clinical presentati...
