Background: Odontogenic facial space infections are very common in Sudan with different clinical presentation. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment is necessary to prevent life threaten complications.
Objectives: To access the frequency and the clinical pattern of space infection among patient manage in KDTH with outcome.
Methodology: Hospital-based cross-sectional descriptive study in Khartoum Teaching Dental Hospital, Khartoum, Sudan. The population sample covered all patients with odontogenic fascial space infection above 13 years attending the hospital, 138 patients (50%) male and (50%) female, in a period extending from 2012 to 2018. The data collected retrospectively from hospital medical records and prospectively from the outpatient.
Results: The most common affected age group was (31 – 40 years) with percent (31.2%), and the least common age groups are (71 – 90 years) (13%). The most common affected tooth is the 3rd molar tooth (160%). The most common cause of infection was Pulpits (30.8%). Mandible was the most common site (85.3%). Ludwig’s Angina was the most recorded in multiple spaces (37.5%), but in single space the buccal was recorded (62.2%). The most common clinical sign of admission is swelling of the face (43.1%). All patients treated by extraction, most of the interventional treatments modalities used in treatment were incision and drainage (34.5%). Metronidazole is the most described antibiotic (19.8%). (3.1%) were not totally recovered, (93.8%) fully recovered, deaths recorded in this study (3.1%).
Conclusion: Equal male and female affected by odontogenic fascial space infection, the predominant age group is the (31 – 40) years, mandibular third molar are the most causative single tooth where the lower third molars and lower second and third molars are the most common causative multiple teeth, the buccal space is the space most commonly involved in single space infection and Ludwig angina is the most recorded type of infection in multiple space involve.

Aim of the Study: The aim of this study was to compare conventional visual shade determination, an intraoral spectrophotometer and 3D scanner to determine accuracies and interrater agreement of these three methods.
Methods: In the visual method, 59 examiners (29 of them were specialists in prosthodontics and conservative dentistry and 30 were dental students) with normal color vision calibrated by control shade tabs taken from the two shade guides (VITAPAN Classical and VITAPAN 3D Master). Each tab was matched 3 times to determine repeatability of visual examiners. The spectrophotometric and 3D scanning shade matching was performed by one trained examiner under the same standardized test conditions using an intraoral spectrophotometer and 3D scanner with three repetitions for each tab.
Results: Results revealed that 3D scanning (81.4%) and spectrophotometric (77.8%) methods had greater accuracy than the visual method (38.7%). Also, the 3D scanner and spectrophotometer, exhibited significantly better interrater agreement as compared to the visual method without any significant difference between two instrumental methods. Besides, results revealed that specialists had greater accuracy (48.1%) than the dental students (33.4%).
Conclusion: 3D scanning and spectrophotometric methods for color shade matching was more reliable than the visual methods tested

The dentist have an important role in the diagnosis of this syndrome through maxillofacial signs specific to its expression including: keratocysts odontogenic, inclusions and dental ectopias that can be inaugural.

Methods: The study was carried out in three schools. Data was collected by clinical examination of the children and the registration method evolved by Bjork et el (1964) was used. This is because it is a qualitative registration of teeth and dentitional and occlusal anomalies.
Results:The sample ages were between 10-15 from both genders. A total of 196 school children were examined using Angles’ classification. Of those 99 of 196 who consisted of 50.5% were males and the remaining 97 being 49.9% were females. In all, 75% of the study sample had malocclusion. A statistically significant difference was found between male/female and orthodontic anomalies.
Conclusion:The study indicated that more females than males had malocclusion. This discrepancy was however not significant enough to suggest a gender predilection. One striking finding was that, prevalence of malocclusion decreased with age.

The orthodontic treatment of a 16 years old patient with Crohn’s Disease (CD) is reported in this article. The patient was diagnosed since the age of 10 years with CD and was undergoing therapy with immunosuppressant agents. She had a severe high-angle skeletal Cl II with gummy smile and a retruded profile. Treatment with 2 posterior and 2 anterior mini-screws with 4 premolar extractions was conducted. Oral breakouts of the disease were triggered by the orthodontic treatment that had to be progressively molded to fit the patient’s health conditions. A counter-clockwise rotation of the mandible and enhancement of patient’s profile were achieved. Gummy smile was fully corrected. The interactions of the therapy with immunosuppressant agents, and oral breakouts of CD with treatment progress, results and duration are discussed.

Introduction: For this study we wanted to evaluate the possible influence of the depth of the preparation on the longevity of porcelain veneers.
Materials and Methods: Our study is a randomized clinical trial; on the comparison of 264 veneers stuck on 73 patients. 139 veneers have a preparation in dentin. The patient’s recruitment was done according to well-defined inclusion criteria.
The information was reported on a clinical record. The study lasted 64 months with regular checks of 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, 24 months, 36 months, 48 months and 60 months.
Results: In this study, the maxillary teeth prepared according to different depth on dentin shown that ceramic veneers have stable esthetic qualities; they are biologically acceptable in so far as the recommendations of current preparations are respected.
The Chi square test revealed that there is statistically no significant difference between the three methods.
“Preparation without palatine return or window, preparation in slight return and preparation in slight return”.
Conclusion:The depth preparation for ceramic veneers have no influence on porcelain Veneers’ survival.

Background: Various epidemiologic studies suggest a reduction of periodontal diseases in the 18 to 65 year age group. However, so far, no systematic review has evaluated the epidemiology of periodontal diseases. The objective of this systematic review is to analyse the epidemiology of periodontal diseases as presented in various publications.
Materials and Methods: An electronic search was carried out on PubMed, Cochrane Databases and Google Scholar in November 2019. Ten observational studies that reported on epidemiology of periodontal diseases were found to meet the inclusion criteria.
Results: Of the ten potentially relevant publications, two were found to report on the epidemiology of periodontal diseases while the rest focussed on biological mechanisms and disease severity.
Conclusion:Periodontal disease has a variable epidemiology, with an increased risk to people who are older 65 years and reduced risk for the 18 to 65 year age group.

Background: Revascularization is a valuable treatment in necrotic immature teeth that allows the continuation of root development.
Case Report: This article describes the successful revascularization treatment of an immature maxillary permanent central incisor that was diagnosed with asymptomatic apical periodontitis. The tooth was asymptomatic and functional clinically and radiographically during the follow‐up period of 1 year and 5 months.
Conclusion:The follow‐up showed evidence of progressive thickening of the dentinal walls, development of root length and apical closure.
