The diagnostic value of computed tomography in temporomandibular joint synovial chondromatosis.

Synovial chondromatosis of the temporomandibular joint was diagnosed and location of dens particles was assessed by means of computed tomography. Based upon the data collected, the joint was operated conservatively and most of the calcifications were removed leaving the patient symptom free. The importance of an accurate preoperative diagnosis of synovial chondromatosis by use of CT scan is stressed in view of numerous unnecessary condylectomies and parotidectomies reported in the literature.

Assessment of 100 children in Jerusalem with supernumerary teeth in the premaxillary region.

This retrospective study evaluated the prevalence of supernumerary teeth in the premaxilla in a group of children referred for consultation, and determines the presence of associated local disorders before and after surgical intervention. The patient files of 100 Israeli schoolchildren (72 boys and 28 girls) were reviewed. Seventy-eight percent of the 130 teeth in this study were unerupted; and 122 were surgically removed. The most common shape was conical or peg-shaped (61 percent).
