Teeth

The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin and...

Swallowing artificial partial dentures is a common emergency requiring otorhinolaryngology intervention. Dentures with metal clasps pose higher risks, necessitating cautious use, especially in vulnerable patients.

Area of Science:

  • Otorhinolaryngology
  • Gastroenterology
  • Emergency Medicine

Background:

  • Foreign body ingestion, particularly artificial partial dentures, presents a frequent challenge in otorhinolaryngology.
  • Esophageal impaction of dentures can lead to significant patient distress and requires prompt medical attention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the incidence, management, and complications of artificial partial denture impaction in the esophagus.
  • To identify risk factors and provide recommendations for preventing denture-related esophageal foreign body incidents.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective study was conducted over two years involving patients presenting with accidental denture swallowing.
  • Diagnostic methods included radiological evaluation and esophagoscopy for foreign body removal.

3D Planning and Printing of Patient Specific Implants for Reconstruction of Bony Defects

Published on: August 4, 2020

  • Surgical exploration was performed in cases where endoscopic removal failed.

    • Main Results:

    • Esophageal impaction of artificial partial dentures was confirmed as a significant otorhinolaryngology emergency.
    • Partial dentures with metal wire clasps were associated with a higher incidence of complications.
    • Dysphagia was the primary presenting symptom in all affected patients.

    Conclusions:

    • Avoiding ill-fitting dentures, especially those with metal clasps, is crucial for preventing esophageal foreign body impaction.
    • Caution is advised when patients with dentures are alcoholics or unconscious due to increased risk.
    • Prompt endoscopic intervention is the primary treatment modality for denture esophageal foreign bodies.
