Nasal fractures, even minor ones, can lead to bruising (ecchymosis) and
swelling (edema) around the nose and face due to the vascularity of the area. Most nasal fractures, especially minor ones, do not require reduction
(surgical realignment) unless there is significant displacement or functional
impairment. Typically, if reduction is necessary, it is done shortly after the
injury, not for a few weeks. Traumatic telecanthus (increased distance between the inner canthi of the
eyes) can occur with severe nasal injuries, but it is not a necessary
complication of all nasal fractures. Severe nasal fractures can lead to complications such as the telescoping of
the nasal complex, which may involve displacement into adjacent structures,
including the frontal sinus.

ProsthodonticsCompared to cast circumferential clasps, bar clasps have a greater tendency to collect and hold debris due to their design creating additional surfaces and spaces where food and plaque can accumulate. The bar design, while offering other advantages, creates more areas for bacterial retention and requires more careful oral hygiene.

Oral PathologyA periapical (radicular) cyst is a true cyst because it features a pathologic cavity lined by stratified squamous epithelium, typically derived from the cell rests of Malassez. Radiographically, they are usually larger than 1 cm and exhibit a well-defined cortical border.

Risk factors for the malignant transformation of oral potentially malignant disorders include the site of the lesion (e.g., floor of the mouth, tongue), size, clinical type (e.g., speckled leukoplakia), presence of Invasive Candida albicans, and DNA aneuploidy. While oral cancer is more common in males, being male in itself is not considered a specific risk factor for the malignant transformation of an existing premalignant lesion. Risk factors relate to the nature of the lesion and associated biological or environmental factors.
