Follicular lymphoid hyperplasia of the hard palate: report of a case.

A review of the literature and a case report of follicular lymphoid hyperplasia (FLH) of the hard palate has been presented. This entity should always be considered when confronted with a hard-palate swelling. A diagnosis of FLH generally can be made after a thorough medical and dental examination and immunocytochemical studies of the surgical specimen. Local wide excision of the tumor is suggested as the treatment of choice. During the healing period, the use of a surgical stent will give the patient comfort as the wound heals by secondary intention.

The necessity to adequately visualize impacted maxillary third molars: report of three cases.

Three case reports illustrate the inability to detect the presence of the impacted maxillary third molars by conventional periapical radiography. In each case there was extensive cystic proliferation causing damage to the bony maxilla, antrum, and tooth-bearing areas. The pathological conditions were subsequently detected by further radiographic study, and surgically treated.

Surgical intervention to reestablish adequate intermaxillary space before fixed or removable prosthodontics.

Supraeruption of the right maxillary molars and concomitant drop of the alveolar ridge resulted in loss of intermaxillary space. With the patient under local anesthesia and intravenous sedation, a posterior segmental osteotomy was performed, on an outpatient basis, to reposition this segment superiorly into the maxillary sinus. Stabilization was accomplished with a prefabricated acrylic splint. The patient quickly resumed her daily routine with normal postoperative healing and satisfactory intermaxillary space.
