The Rolando fracture is a type of broken finger involving the base of the thumb. [1] It is an intra-articular fracture. [2] It was first described in 1910 by Silvio Rolando. [3] It is typically T- or Y-shaped. [4]
Symptoms of Bennett fracture are instability of the CMC joint of the thumb, accompanied by pain and weakness of the pinch grasp. Characteristic signs include pain, swelling, and ecchymosis around the base of the thumb and thenar eminence, and especially over the CMC joint of the thumb. Physical examination demonstrates instability of the CMC ...
In mature teeth, root canal treatment is usually performed Non-emergency: removal of loose fragment (following gingivectomy, surgery or via orthodontics), root canal treatment and restoration with post-retained crown In extreme cases (such as a vertical fracture), tooth may need to be extracted 6–8 weeks: clinical and radiographic examination
Occlusal trauma; Secondary occlusal trauma on X-ray film displays two lone-standing mandibular teeth, the lower left first premolar and canine. As the remnants of a once full complement of 16 lower teeth, these two teeth have been alone in opposing the forces associated with mastication for some time, as can be evidenced by the widened PDL surrounding the premolar.
They are occasionally called caveated enamel fractures. It is a micro-fracture or superficial break in a tooth's enamel layer that does not go into the dentin underneath. Usually, trauma—like a direct blow to the tooth—or stress from too much pressure—like bruxism—causes these infractions.
A broken finger or finger fracture is a common type of bone fracture, affecting a finger. [1] Symptoms may include pain, swelling, tenderness, bruising, deformity and reduced ability to move the finger. [2] Although most finger fractures are easy to treat, failing to deal with a fracture appropriately may result in long-term pain and disability ...
If the bones fracture and overlie each other there may be shortening of the height of the ramus. This results in gagging of the teeth on the fractured side (the teeth meet too soon on the fractured side, and not on the non fractured side, i.e. "open bite" that becomes progressively worse to the unaffected side).
The most common complication after surgery is pain persisting in the thumb. Over long term, there is pain relief, but on short term, patients experience pain from the surgery itself. The main complaint is a burning sensation or hypersensitivity over the incision. Some patients develop a complex regional pain syndrome. This is a syndrome of ...
