Introduction: Elbow primary stability is guaranteed by the anatomical congruency between the humeral trochlea and the greater sigmoid notch (GSN). Elbow dislocation typically occurs in a semi-extended position, but computed tomography (CT) scans are...

As the angle is a weak region in the continuity of mandible, so it is more prone to fracture. It has been proven time and again that coronoid fracture results from a strong sudden contraction of temporalis. Muscular forces influence the remodeling of...

Background: It has been suggested that the mandible may differ according to gender. The fact that the mandible and the anatomical structures on it show various changes with age and gender differences is important in gender and age determination. The...

Gender determination is the first step in forensic identification, followed by age and height determination, which are both affected by gender. This study assessed the accuracy of gender estimation using mandibular morphometric indices on panoramic r...

(1) Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the association between unilateral premolar scissors bite and mandibular symmetry of adults via the 3D distance mapping method. (2) Methods: A total of 53 cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of adul...

This retrospective study aimed to evaluate a possible correlation between the characteristics of the mandibular ramus and lower third molar impaction by comparing a group of subjects with an impacted lower third molar and a second group with normal e...

Ankyloses in the area of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) are mentioned as a potential etiological factor of mandibular growth disorders and facial asymmetry. The aim of this case study was to evaluate the changes in the mandible of a child with zyg...

This tutorial outlines the details of the AOCMF image-based classification system for fractures of the mandible at the precision level 2 allowing description of their topographical distribution. A short introduction about the anatomy is made. Mandibu...

Apart from genetics, environmental factors, such as food consistency, may affect craniofacial morphology and development. The present systematic review aims to systematically investigate and appraise the available evidence regarding the effect of die...

The aim of this study was to determine the influence of limb positioning on computed tomographic (CT) measurement of radio-ulnar incongruity (RUI) in canines. The sample population was comprised of twenty thoracic limbs harvested from ten adult canin...

There are significant discrepancies in the reported prevalence of condylar process fractures among all mandibular fractures (16.5–56%) in the available literature. In addition, it seems that the actual number of difficult-to-treat fractures of...

Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a multisystem connective tissue disease of unknown etiology. The hallmark of SSc is scleroderma, referring to the presence of thickened, hardened skin. Oral and maxillofacial manifestations of the disease are numerous incl...

Study Design: In the year 2020, we saw the emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 causing COVID-19 into a full blown pandemic. This resulted in constraints on healthcare resources, and the attention was shifted to reduce cross c...
