Abstract

Background: Pseudo Class III malocclusion is characterized by an anterior crossbite with functional forward mandibular displacement. This malocclusion can prevent maxillary sagittal development, and if not intervened upon promptly, can develop into a skeletal class III malocclusion. Therefore, it is essential to avoid this malocclusion as early as possible. Case Report: A 9-year-old male child presented with the chief complaint of prominent lower teeth. Intra-oral examination showed crossbite anterior, presence of crowding, and malposition 21,22. Right molar relation class 1 and left class III, maxillary space discrepancy 6.4 mm, skeletal Class I, patient in growth and development period. Treatment was performed using a functional appliance, a reverse twin block, with additional bilateral expansion on the maxilla and a Z-spring on teeth 21 and 22. Conclusion: Management of pseudo-class III in growing children with reverse twin block has shown success in correcting the crossbite anterior, tooth malposition, and increasing the maxillary arch width.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Introduction: Denture Stomatitis (DS) is a frequent condition that affects people who wear dentures, particularly the elderly. There are several contributing factors to denture stomatitis. Many local and systemic predisposing factors interact with one another. Case report: A 54-year-old female presented to Dental Hospital Universitas Syiah Kuala with a chief complaint of redness of the palate. Dentures currently seem loose and frequently fall out when speaking and chewing. Intraoral examination revealed diffuse erythematous, measuring >2 cm, red in color, number 2 (bilateral), irregular edges, located on the hard palate. Atrophic lesions, flat, measuring ±3x5cm, red in color, multiple, with diffuse borders and irregular edges, located dorsal of the tongue. Laboratory test results showed an increase in blood glucose levels, HbA1c and decrease in Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV), Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH). Based anamnesis, clinical features and adjunctive examination was diagnosed Denture stomatitis with Diabetes Mellitus and slight Anemia. The treatment was Nystation oral suspension, Chlorhexidine Gluconate 0.2%, maintained oral health and improved nutrition. Conclusion: Denture stomatitis is a complex disorder that mostly affects the palatal mucosa of the upper jaw. Management of this condition must be comprehensive, starting with a proper diagnosis of the causative and risk factors, then directing treatment to the most significant factors specific to the patient.
