Abstract: Oral health problems such as dental caries, malocclusion, and poor oral hygiene are common among school children and are influenced by socioeconomic factors. Comparing government and private school children helps evaluate differences in oral health status and access to dental care. Aim
To compare and evaluate malocclusion, dental caries experience, and oral hygiene status among government and private school children aged 12–15 years in Pune, Maharashtra.....

Abstract: Background: Reconstruction of oral and perioral soft tissue defects resulting from benign and malignant lesions, trauma, or tumor resection remains a significant challenge in oral and maxillofacial surgery. The submental flap has emerged as a reliable reconstructive option because of its favorable color and texture match, concealed donor site, reduced surgical complexity, and shorter operative time compared with free flaps. This study aims to evaluate the functional and aesthetic outcomes of the submental flap in the reconstruction of oral soft tissue defects......

Abstract: Background: Optimization of postoperative healing following gingival depigmentation remains a clinical challenge. Oxidative stress has been implicated in delayed wound healing, and topical antioxidants may enhance tissue repair. Aim: To comparatively evaluate the effect of topical Vitamin E and Vitamin C on healing following gingival depigmentation using clinical parameters and Toluidine Blue–based epithelialization assessment. Methods: A split-mouth clinical study was conducted on 13 systemically healthy patients (26 sites) with bilateral gingival hyperpigmentation......
