The prescription of antibiotics is reaching its peak day by day in all specialities. This is causing antibiotic resistance in many bacteria along with evolution of newer multiple drug resistant strains of bacteria. If this situation continues then we would tend to ‘lose battle against the bugs’. Dentistry is a speciality commonly prescribing antibiotics all over the world. Lack of proper knowledge and lethargic attitude of many dentists contribute largely to the increasing antibiotic resistance among patients.Keywords

Swelling of neck always have a wide range of differential diagnosis. Salivary glands are group of organs that secretes saliva which helps in normal functioning of the oral cavity. Many conditions affect the salivary gland because of its size and location. Sialadenitis is the inflammatory condition of the salivary gland which is commonly encountered yet infrequently discussed topic. Sialoliths are calcified organic matter that forms with in the secretory system of the major and minor salivary glands. Sialolithiasis is one of the major causes for sialadenitis which has been shown in many studies. Here we have discussed about a swelling which was present in the right submandibular region with a duration of 3 weeks for which OPG, Lateral Ceph and Ultrasound has been taken for finalising the diagnosis.Keywords

Dentists come across various medically compromised patients. Patients who are under anticoagulant and/ or antiplatelet drugs should be taken into consideration as they are at a high risk to have increased bleeding tendency during minor oral surgical procedures. The substances, which prevent or prolong coagulation of blood, are called Anticoagulants1. The most commonly used medications for oral anticoagulant therapy are Warfarin, Acenocoumarol. The novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) or directly acting oral anticoagulants [DOACs] were developed with more pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic relationships, faster onset of action, and fewer potential interactions. The Novel anticoagulants include Dabigatran Rivaroxaban, Apixaban, Edoxaban.Keywords

Immune-mediated diseases are some of the diseases that affect the patient’s quality of daily life due to their chronic nature. Of which most of them are mucocutaneous diseases and they involve the oral cavity. The treatment of these diseases is oftentimes challenging due to their immunological nature, comorbidity, frequent relapses and long term use of medications and their complications. Immunomodulators are the most rapidly developing current trend. They are used quite often for a large number of these diseases. This article discusses some of the lesions where immunomodulatory drugs are used.Keywords

Eagle’s syndrome (ES) arises when an elongated styloid process or calcified stylohyoid ligament causes recurring throat pain or foreign body sensation, dysphagia, or facial pain. The additional signs may involve neck or throat pain with radiation to the ipsilateral ear. These symptoms and sign could be confused with those attributed to a wide variety of facial neuralgias. ES is diagnosed radiologically and by physical examination. The primary treatment of ES is surgical. Here we report a case in which the patient presented pain and difficulty during swallowing.Keywords

Keratocystic odontogenic tumors (KCOTs) are called for their disputed peculiar characteristics, varied origin, unique propensity to recur, disputed treatment methods and can occur anywhere in the jaw, but mainly seen in the posterior part of the mandible. On radiographically, it present, as well-defined radiolucent lesions with smooth and generally corticated margins. They are benign intraosseous tumors of odontogenic origin that occur most mainly in the jaw. The average reported recurrence rate ranges from 30 to 62 present.Keywords

Vascular anomaly is the term used to implicate various vascular pathology, including proliferating vascular tumors and vascular malformations.
Vascular malformation of the parotid gland is a rare condition where very few cases have been reported in the literature. The clinical and radiological features of vascular malformations often mimic those of other pathologic entities, causing diagnostic confusion. Furthermore, the imaging appearance of low flow and high flow vascular malformations can vary, making the diagnosis challenging. Here we report a case of a 40 years old, female who presented with the complaint of swelling in the left parotid region for one year. Imaging revealed a vascular malformation involving the left parotid gland. Superficial Parotidectomy was planned

Since evolution, the oral cavity has served as a natural housing for numerous species of microbial colonies, which includes both beneficial and harmful organisms. They have developed various defensive mechanisms over time, and have known to survive hand in hand within the various human organs. An ecological balance is always maintained between these beneficial and harmful bacteria, which in turn keeps the hosts’ organ systems in harmony. A plethora of deleterious effects may occur in the host when this harmony is disrupted. This article explains briefly about the harmful effects of oral dysbiosis and the role of oral physicians in controlling it.Keywords
