The purpose of this study was to compare the mesio-distal and vertical position impacted maxillary canines on panoramic radiographs with labio-palatal root resorption adjacent teeth CBCT (ConeBeam Computed Tomography). A total 54 patients 69 were included in study. On radiographs, (Sector I - V), position, angulation evaluated. Labio-palatal evaluated CBCT. Labial impaction most frequent sector...

The increasing need for total hip replacement (THR) in an ageing population will inevitably generate a larger number of revision procedures. The difficulties encountered in dealing with the bone deficient acetabulum are amongst the greatest challenges in hip surgery. The failed acetabular component requires reconstruction to restore the hip centre and improve joint biomechanics. Impaction bone ...

On a sample of 174 X-rayed dogs a statistical analysis was compiled of oligodontia, post-extraction state, impaction and tooth fracture. A total of 261 anomalies were found. The most frequently observed condition was oligodontia (62%) followed by tooth fracture (23.7%), impaction (7.6%) and post-extraction state (6.5%). The majority of patients (28) comprised German Hunting Terriers where, from...
