[Results of treatment of upper gingiva and palate carcinomas].

From 1981 to 1986 in the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery, Institute of Stomatology, Medical Academy in Warsaw 85 patients were treated for carcinoma of the upper gingiva and palate. The follow-up of the patients after treatment was from 3 to 7 years. The obtained results of the treatment were analysed depending on the degree of differentiation of neoplasms and their biological aggressiveness and the therapeutic method used. It was found that the results of the treatment of upper gingiva carcinoma were not satisfactory. The best results were obtained using surgical treatment followed by radiotherapy. A positive result of the treatment without symptoms of recurrence was achieved in 21 cases (24.7%).

Gingival Neoplasms

[Comparison of the effectiveness of conventional methods of radiological examinations and computed tomography in the diagnosis of lower gingiva tumours].

In 22 patients aged 34 to 87 years treated in the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery, Institute of Stomatology, Medical Academy in Warsaw for malignant tumours of the lower gingiva the usefulness was assessed of the conventional radiological methods and computed tomography for the evaluation of malignant infiltrations. Computed tomography was found to be an auxiliary radiological method determining best the morphology and syntopy of malignant neoplasms of the lower gingiva infiltrating the soft tissues of the oral floor.

Adult

[Late results of treatment of mandibular fractures].

In a group of 1246 patients treated in the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery-Institute of Stomatology, Medical Academy in Warsaw, in a period of 3 years (1984-1986) late results of treatment of mandibular fractures were assessed. In the assessment the range of mandible abduction, function of temporomandibular joints, occlusal abnormalities, the sensory function in the area innervated by the mental nerves and the condition of posttraumatic scars changing the morphology and aesthetic appearance of the face were considered. Limitation of mandibular abduction after treatment was found in 39 cases. Functional disturbances of temporomandibular joints developed in 58 cases, and various occlusal complications were found in 130 out of 1246 patients. In 56 patients various sensory loss was noted in the innervation area of the mental nerves. Posttraumatic scars in 89 patients affected in various degree facial morphology and aesthetic appearance.

Cicatrix

[Position of the connective tissue attachment and the image of alveolar process bone in pantomograms in a selected group of adults].

In 20 subjects aged 20-29 years the position of the connective tissue attachment was determined and the atrophy of the alveolar process bone was assessed by means of an analysis of pantomograms. The radiological image of the paradontium was compared with the result of clinical examination. It was found that radiological diagnosis by means of pantomography may be a valuable supplementation of clinical examination in case of advanced parodontitis with loss of connective tissue attachment by at least 6 mm.

Adult

[Introduction of a new technique of partial pulp amputation in permanent teeth in children after mechanical injuries. Preliminary communication].

The study material comprised 56 permanent teeth with traumatic pulp exposure complicated in 15 cases by partial tooth luxation in 52 children aged from 7 to 15 years. In each case routine clinical and radiological examinations were done. The time between trauma and procedure ranged from several hours to 70 days. In all teeth partial pulp amputation was done cutting off by the gentle technique a part of the coronal pulp and covering of the remaining pulp with calcium hydroxide, zinc oxide with eugenol or with Dycal, carboxyl cement and permanent filling. The analysis of the studied material showed that the greatest group comprised children aged 8-11 years (40 cases), and fractures of one-half of the crown prevailed (32 cases), point pulp exposure (32 cases), developmental stage Rc and A 1/2 of root (40 cases). The short-lasting follow-up made possible clinical and radiological control of only 39 teeth after 6 months, and 7 teeth after 12 months. After 6 months good results were obtained in 84.6% of cases.

[Use and evaluation of X-ray films produced by WZF Foton for occlusal radiograms].

Sensitimetric properties are described of X-ray films for taking occlusal radiograms: Dental DX, RF-42, Ultra-Speed, XR-11 KS (XM). The film Dental DX was estimated on the basis of examination of a skull specimen and clinical material. The sensitivity of the film Dental DX was 400% higher than that of the generally used RF-42 film.
