The author reports a case of post-traumatic myoarthropathy which was resolved through the search for a new centric ratio which was subsequently transformed in ICP with a varied vertical dimension. This was based on the assumption that post-traumatic intracapsular modifications impose this therapeutic objective given that they do not fall within the range of muscular adaptability.

1-2 g/day or 3-4 g/day phosphomycin were administered per os to children and adults respectively for an average of 5.2 days in the outpatient treatment of 28 males and 18 females with parodontitis, gingivitis and dysodontiasis of bacterial origin. All patients presented swelling of the soft parts and 34 (74%) had hyperpyrexia. A clinical cure was obtained after 9 days in all cases. Fever lasted an average of 2.4 days and disappeared after 6 days. Swelling lasted an average of 3.6 days and disappeared after 8 days. Tolerance was excellent. Two patients (4.3%) displayed diarrhoea and nausea and one (2.2%) pruritus. These side-effects did not necessitate the suspension of treatment. It is felt that phosphomycin may be regarded as a drug of choice in the treatment of odontostomatological infection of bacterial origin.
Chronic apical periodontitis and apical cyst are chronologically different expressions of a chronic, productive-type inflammatory process. Treatment, however, differs with cases. As X-ray diagnosis is generally impossible, endodontic treatment is the first therapeutic action required. If no remission is seen, surgery is necessary, with curettage in the event of apical integrity, and apicectomy otherwise.
