Abstract

Objective: Ankyloglossia affects a person’s overall well-being and life, from malnutrition due to poor feeding and mechanical problems to psychological stress and low self-esteem, thus affecting social life. This case reports the use of non-scalpel techniques, such as a super pulsed laser, to manage ankyloglossia in a non-syndromic patient suffering from speech incompetence and restricted tongue mobility and highlights its advantages over other conventional techniques. Case Report: A 17-year-old male patient presented with a complaint of restricted tongue mobility, due to which he could not pronounce certain words clearly. As the patient was apprehensive about the use of a scalpel, it was decided to manage ankyloglossia using a diode laser against the conventional scalpel technique. Thus, the laser-assisted lingual frenectomy using GaAs super pulsed laser was used to excise the lingual frenulum. Conclusion: This case report suggests that ankyloglossia can be successfully treated by using laser-assisted surgery and gives superior results specifically in terms of lesser pain and bleeding.

Abstract

IntroductionThis case report aims to provide implant-supported rehabilitation in a patient treated for breast cancer using sinus augmentation.MethodsA 57-year-old female patient previously treated for stage 2 breast-cancer with breast-conserving surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy presented with missing teeth in her upper right buccal segment and wanted its rehabilitation. Sinus augmentation with hydroxyapatite and ? tricalcium phosphate graft was performed to gain lost bone volume in the region using piezoelectric surgical unit. Final restoration was done using an implant-supported prosthesis.ResultsAfter sinus augmentation, implants were placed and successful osseointegration was observed with uneventful healing. The patient was satisfied with the final outcome of the treatment as proper oral form and function was achieved.ConclusionThis case report suggests that sinus augmentation using a piezoelectric unit followed by implant-supported prosthetic rehabilitation can provide successful outcomes if done cautiously in medically compromised patients.
