[The DSA features of AVM of jaws]
1Department of Radiology, Ninth People's Hospital, Shanghai Second Medical University, Shanghai 200011, China.
Objective:
To evaluate the vascular architecture of AVM of jaws on DSA.
Methods:
12 cases of AVM of jaws comprised this study group, and 5 cases in maxilla and 7 cases in mandible, respectively. Seldinger technique was applied to carry out carotid angiography under the guidance of DSA machine (PHILIPS V3000).
Results:
The DSA features of AVM of jaws included varix into the posterior area of jaws. The varix of the maxilla was supplied by the posterior superior alveolar artery and transversal facial artery when the soft tissue was involved, and the varix of the mandible was supplied by the inferior alveolar artery, maxillary and facial artery.
Conclusion:
Angiography is considered necessary for the diagnosis and embolization of AVM of jaws, and the varix is the center of lesion.

Functional Classification of Joints
The functional classification of joints is determined by the amount of mobility between the adjacent bones. Joints are functionally classified as a synarthrosis or immobile joint, an amphiarthrosis or slightly moveable joint, or as a diarthrosis, a freely moveable joint. Fibrous and cartilaginous joints can be functionally classified as either synarthroses or amphiarthroses, whereas all synovial joints are classified as diarthroses.

Tooth Anatomy
The Crown, Neck, and Root
The visible part of the tooth is referred to as the crown. It's covered by enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. The crown is uniquely shaped for each type of tooth, allowing for different functions such as cutting, tearing, or grinding food.
