A 13-year-old girl complains of a sharp pain when biting on her tooth 21
a. Replantation: This option involves repositioning and securing the tooth in its socket. However, the depth of the subgingival edge of the fracture line, along with displacement and other complications, makes successful replantation less likely.
b. Splinting: While splinting is a technique used to stabilize teeth, it might not be effective in cases of severe fracture with significant displacement. The prognosis for splinting success depends on the stability of the fractured segments.
c. Filling: Filling is not suitable for a fractured tooth with involvement of the pulp chamber. It does not address the structural damage or provide a solution for stabilization.
e. Monitoring for the next month: Given the severity of the fracture, monitoring without intervention may lead to complications such as infection, pain, or damage to adjacent teeth.
d.
Extraction
The depth of the subgingival edge of the fracture line being over 4 mm, along with the displacement of fragments, suggests a severe and complicated fracture. In such cases, extraction is often the recommended approach, as attempts at replantation may not be successful.
Due to lack of timely specialized treatment a 44-year-old man presents with incorrectly healed displaced mandibular fracture. Objectively the lower jaw narrows sharply, vestibular cusps of the lower teeth contact with oral cusps of the upper teeth. The patient declined surgical treatment. What treatment tactics should be chosen by the dentist in this case?
Question 4Select one:
A.
Make a non-removable dental bridge with movable joint
B.
Make a prosthesis with double dentition
C.

B. Make a prosthesis with double dentition
Creating a prosthesis with double dentition can help restore function and aesthetics by compensating for the malocclusion resulting from the incorrectly healed fracture. This option aims to provide the patient with a functional and esthetically pleasing solution without the need for surgical correction.
A. Make a non-removable dental bridge with movable joint: Creating a dental bridge may not be the ideal solution for an incorrectly healed displaced mandibular fracture. The movable joint might not effectively address the malocclusion and jaw narrowing.
D. Correct the malocclusion by filing down the patient’s teeth: Filing down the teeth (occlusal adjustment) might be considered, but it may not provide a comprehensive solution for the malocclusion caused by the incorrectly healed fracture. It may also lead to further complications.
E. Correct the malocclusion via instrumental surgical method: The patient has declined surgical treatment, so this option is not feasible based on the patient’s preferences.
Choosing option B, making a prosthesis with double dentition, is a conservative approach that addresses both the functional and aesthetic aspects without the need for surgical intervention, making it a more suitable choice in this specific scenario.
C. Make a dentogingival laminar denture: This option involves creating a denture that not only replaces missing teeth but also incorporates gingival elements for a more natural appearance. While it can address the aesthetic aspect of the malocclusion, it might not provide as much functional improvement as a prosthesis with double dentition.
A 36-year-old man complains of an ulcer on his lower left lip. Three weeks ago a smal round red spot appeared on his lip. Eventually it became more dense and noticeable and 2-3 days ago developed an ulcer in its center, while under the lower jaw appeared multiple painless nodules. Objectively on the mucosa of the lower left lip there is an oval ulcer, 1.2 cm in diameter, with smooth clear margins and bright-red glossy floor. Ulcer edges form a cushion that smoothly descends to the bottom of the ulcer. In the base of the ulcer there is a dense painless infiltration. Submandibular lymph nodes are enlarged and painless, the skin over them remains unchanged. This clinical presentation corresponds with the following disease:
Question 5Select one:
A.
Trophic ulcer
B.
Syphilis (initial period)
C.
Ulcerative cheilitis
D.
Lupus erythematosus
E.
Lip cancer
B.
Syphilis (initial period)
Round red spot evolving into an ulcer: This matches the typical progression of syphilitic lesions.
Painless nodules under the lower jaw (submandibular lymph nodes): Enlarged, painless lymph nodes are characteristic of syphilis.
Ulcer characteristics: Smooth clear margins, bright-red glossy floor, and the cushion-like descent to the bottom are consistent with syphilitic ulcers.
Now, let’s discuss why the other options are less likely:
A. Trophic ulcer: This typically refers to an ulcer resulting from a decrease in nerve supply or blood circulation. The described clinical presentation, along with the associated symptoms, is more suggestive of an infectious process like syphilis.
D. Lupus erythematosus: While lupus can affect the skin and mucous membranes, the specific characteristics of the ulcer and the presence of painless nodules under the jaw are more indicative of syphilis.
E. Lip cancer: Lip cancer could present with an ulcer, but the specific features, including the bright-red glossy floor and the painless nodules, make syphilis a more likely diagnosis in this context.

e.
Furuncle with abscess on the upper lip
e.
Furuncle with abscess on the upper lipn
Furuncle on the upper lip (Option e):
The description of a dense, painful infiltration with hyperemic skin, throbbing pain, and a necrotic center is typical of a furuncle.
Furuncles are localized infections of a hair follicle and surrounding tissue, often caused by Staphylococcus aureus.
Why not the other options:
Hematoma of the upper lip at the stage of suppuration (Option a): Hematomas are collections of blood, and the description doesn’t align with the typical progression of a hematoma.
Atheroma of the upper lip at the stage of suppuration (Option b): Atheromas are cystic structures involving sebaceous glands, and they usually don’t present with the described symptoms of hyperemia and necrosis.
Carbuncle on the upper lip (Option c): A carbuncle involves multiple hair follicles and is characterized by interconnected abscesses. The described cone-shaped infiltration is more typical of a furuncle.
Odontogenic abscess of the upper lip (Option d): While dental infections can cause facial swelling, the acute onset, throbbing pain, and skin findings are more indicative of a furuncle.

Let’s discuss why the other options may not be the most likely diagnosis:
A. Atopic cheilitis: Atopic cheilitis is associated with conditions like eczema and is characterized by dry, itchy, and inflamed lips. While some symptoms overlap, the presence of blisters containing serous substance and the description of weeping skin are more indicative of exematous cheilitis.
B. Exfoliative cheilitis: Exfoliative cheilitis typically presents with continuous peeling of the lips. The presence of blisters, dried blood, and weeping skin doesn’t align with the primary characteristics of exfoliative cheilitis.
C. Actinic cheilitis: Actinic cheilitis is often related to sun damage and presents with dry, scaly, or thickened lips. It is less likely given the description of small blisters, weeping skin, and the age of the patient.
E. Meteorological cheilitis: Meteorological cheilitis refers to lip dryness and cracking due to weather conditions. However, the presence of blisters, weeping skin, and scabs suggests a more inflammatory condition like exematous cheilitis
A 27-year-old woman complains of painful and bleeding gums, with the signs aggravating during eating, and indisposition. One week ago she had a case of URTI. Within the last 5 years she periodicaly presents with gingival hemorrhages. Objectively: the gums are bright red, markedly swollen; gingival papillae are friable, bleed on the slightest touch.

One hour ago a patient received a blunt object trauma to the middle area of his face. X-ray revealed a fracture line in the bone tissue that passes through the nasal root, medial wall of the eyesocket, pterygoid processes of the sphenoid bone, and zygomatic arch. Make the diagnosis:
Question 18Select one:
A.
Le Fort II maxillary fracture
B.
Nasal and zygomatic bone fracture
C.
Le Fort III maxillary fracture
D.
Zygomatic bone fracture
E.
Le Fort I maxillary fracture
C
Le Fort III maxillary fracture
Considering the involvement of multiple structures, including the nasal root, medial wall of the eye socket, pterygoid processes of the sphenoid bone, and zygomatic arch, the most appropriate diagnosis is Le Fort III maxillary fracture. This type of fracture typically results from severe trauma to the midface and is characterized by extensive separation of the facial bones from the cranial base.
The other options are less suitable for this specific pattern of fractures:
Le Fort II maxillary fracture (Option A): Typically involves the nasal bone, maxilla, and infraorbital rim but not the pterygoid processes or the zygomatic arch.
Nasal and zygomatic bone fracture (Option B): This description doesn’t encompass the involvement of the pterygoid processes or the medial wall of the eye socket.
Zygomatic bone fracture (Option D): This wouldn’t account for the fractures through the nasal root, medial wall of the eye socket, or pterygoid processes.
Le Fort I maxillary fracture (Option E): Usually involves the maxilla but not to the extent described, including the fractures through the pterygoid processes and the zygomatic arch.
In summary, the combination of fractures described aligns most closely with Le Fort III maxillary fracture.
