COMPARISON OF COMPONENTS OF ODONTOGENIC CYST FLUID - A REVIEW
ABSTRACT:
The cystic lesions that affect the oral and maxillofacial region are predominantly odontogenic in origin. The odontogenic cell rests entangled within tissue of the jaws such as cell rests of Malassez, cell rests of serre and enamel organ leads to its formation . The factors leading to the enlargement of these jaw cysts are increased permeability of cyst wall , increased protein content of the cyst fluid ,and when the intracystic fluid pressure on the jaw bone is increased. This review is an attempt to analyse and compare the components of cystic fluid like Albumin, Prealbumin, Globulin,Total protein content among various odontogenic cysts.
Keywords: Odontogenic cysts, Odontogenic cyst fluid, Total protein content, Albumin, Prealbumin.
Introduction
The odontogenic cystic lesions include inflammatory cysts like radicular cyst, developmental cysts like dentigerous cysts and benign tumors like keratocystic odontogenic tumor which was previously called odontogenic keratocyst. Clinical and radiologic indices are often inadequate to discriminate reliably among these

Radicular cysts comprise of about 52% to 68% of all cysts affecting the human jaws. 1,4 Non keratinized stratified squamous epithelium 6-20 cell layers thick sometimes even 50 layers thick . The epithelial linings may be proliferating and show arcading Pattern with an intense associated inflammatory process . The inflammatory cell infiltrate in the proliferating epithelial linings is predominantly PMN leukocytes where as the adjacent fibrous capsule is infiltrated mainly by chronic inflammatory cells. Rushton bodies are seen in the epithelial lining characterized by a glassy pink (hyalinised appearance)in approximately 10% of the radicular cysts. These hyaline bodies are believed to be due to previous hemorrhage within the inflamed cyst
Abscesses occur for a variety of reasons, cause extreme pain, and can be treated with much success. If left untreated, however, bacteria can spread into other areas of the mouth, causing serious medical conditions. Periodontal disease can cause the formation of an abscess, which is more common in cats that have a tendency to bite or chew frequently. If left untreated, facial or mouth traumas, bacterial infections, and diabetes can all contribute to the formation of an abscess. Symptoms of tooth root abscess are the following: - Bad breath - Loose teeth - Facial swelling - A
Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma term has been coined by Spies in 1930. Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma is a rare malignant tumors which reported to be <1% of all head and neck cancer. Adenoid cystic Carcinoma can arise from different site of the body which contain salivary gland. However, the most commonly site arise from minor salivary gland in oral cavity represent 60%. In other hand, the most major salivary gland site arise from parotid gland.
If hemorrhages are small they are look similar to microaneurysms and they also occur like microaneurysms but they are found in the deeper layers of the retina, such as the inner nuclear and outer plexiform layers. Their appearance is a red dot with a density that is uneven. The red dot will be less than 125 microns. This characteristic will not be present if the haemorrhages are round in shape and smooth margins. Sometimes it may be difficult to differentiate between microaneurysms and small haemorrhages.
These spots were a certain sign of death, just as the original tumor
A chalazion is also known as a meibomian cyst, tarsal cyst, or conjunctival granuloma. What causes a chalazion? Actually, it is quite difficult to identify a cause for a chalazion. However, it is very common in individuals with blepharitis (eye inflammation) and rosacea.
Patient was a 53-year-old female with jaw pain. Patient states that she cannot open her mouth more than 2.5cms due to muscle spasm in her jaw region. Patient attributes this to an injection given in the back of her mouth to fill a hole in her tooth that is thought to have formed due to receiving chemotherapy and radiation as a young age which caused them not to form properly. On the day of filling, patient had soreness in mouth and limited motion due to pain and irritation. On day two, patient struggled to open mouth during eating and yawning was moderately to highly painful.
These lesions expand to form ulcers and extensive erosions filled with necrotic tissue and mycelium. This is followed by the development of granulomas on the internal organs and eventually
Epithelial migration is followed by increased mitosis of epithelium. Recent evidence suggests that a water soluble heat labile substance called chalcone which is secreted at the wound site is responsible for regulation for mitosis
Persons with cystic echinococcosis often remain asymptomatic until hydatid cysts containing the larval parasites grow large enough to cause discomfort, pain, nausea, and vomiting. The cysts grow over the course of several years before reaching maturity and the rate at which symptoms appear typically depends on the location of the cyst. The cysts are mainly found in the liver and lungs but can also appear in the spleen, kidneys, heart, bone, and central nervous system, including the brain and eyes. Cyst rupture is most frequently caused by trauma and may cause mild to severe anaphylactic reactions, even death, as a result of the release of cystic fluid. Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is characterized by parasitic tumors in the liver and may spread to other organs including the lungs and brain.
Introduction This paper discusses the two types of rhinitis which are allergic and non-allergic and how rhinitis affects the dentition, jaw growth, dental occlusion, and behavior. Rhinitis in adults is discussed as well as the effect of rhinitis on children. Allergic Rhinitis Allergic rhinitis affects more than 1.4 billion people worldwide and is the condition where the immune system recognizes an intruder which in this case is called an allergen. The immune system releases histamine and chemical mediators in response to the allergen, and the nose, eyes, ears, throat, skin and roof of the mouth may experience symptoms.
Most cystic lesions of the major salivary gland are cystic neoplasms. Benign cysts are epithelial lined cavities usually containing fluid or semisolid material, incidence is 2-5%. Benign cysts of the salivary gland are classified into three types: a) Lymphoepithelial cysts b) Salivary duct cysts c) Dysgenetic cysts[28] a) Lymphoepithelial cyst Bernier and Bhaskar introduced the term lymphoepithelial cysts to stress that it is not an embryologic remnant. Lymphoepithelial cysts are considered distinct entities from the lymphoepithelial lesions.[29] Usually there is a well circumscribed, asymptomatic mass in the superficial portion of the gland.
he results indicate the effectiveness of both drug use and improve the quality of life scores both of article related to oral health patients also made findings being independent markers of effectiveness of medications the patient is more mucosa on the rate of artificial saliva, respectively. Key words: artificial saliva , propolis , mucositis ,Leukemia Introduction: Oral mucositis (OM) is a term to describe an oral mucosa inflammation as a chemotherapy side effect. Clinical features combine erythema, edema and sensitivity, followed by painful ulceration and mucosal bleeding. Patients with severe OM are unable to eat, speak or swallow due to pain.
INTRODUCTION Success of root canal depends mainly on the elimination of bacteria from root canals. The microorganisms present in root canal plays important role in pathogenesis of apical periodontitis. The bacterial elimination from root canals is obtained by mechanical instrumentation using various irrigating solutions and intracanal medicaments. Hermann introduced Ca(OH)2 in 1920 which was used as a pulp capping agent.
According to the official guidelines of American Academy of Periodontology, the goals of periodontal therapy are to preserve natural dentition; to maintain and improve health, comfort, esthetics and function; and to provide replacements (i.e., dental implants) where indicated1.Several treatment modalities to achieve these goals are available in periodontics, and they can be broadly classified into either surgical or non surgical approaches. Non surgical approaches include plaque control, supra and sub gingival scaling, root planing and the adjunctive use of chemotherapeutic agents. Non surgical therapy aims to eliminate both living bacteria in the biofilm and calcified biofilm microorganisms from tooth surface and adjacent soft tissues. A reduction in inflammation of the periodontium due to a lesser bacterial load leads to beneficial clinical changes .In addition, non-surgical therapy aims to create an environment in which the host can more effectively prevent pathogenic microbial recolonization using personal oral hygiene
I could not hear the echo of my steps as I descended the stairs, I did not see any people who brushed past me, did not feel the chill of the wind which blew my scarf. From the window of the cab, I quietly admired the magnificent stretch of buildings of my alma mater for dental training and research getting smaller and smaller until they vanished from my sight, but not from my vision: the last day of my internship at The Manipal College of Dental Sciences. Now, what had been a dream on the first day of my dental school had already transformed into a firm resolve, to become a competent dentist and contribute to the vast body of scientific evidence. In the words of Richard Bach, “You are never given a dream without also being given a power to
