Quick Review #214 - #surgery #surgeon #doctorgallagher #oralsurgery #oralsurgeon #omfs #dentist #dentistry #dental #closedreduction #nasalbone #fracture #nasalbonefracture

Closed Reduction of Bilateral Nasal Bone Fractures is a common treatment for nasal bone fractures, particularly when there is no severe comminution or displacement that requires open surgical intervention:

Indications:

1. Non-Comminuted Fractures: Appropriate for fractures without extensive comminution or with minimal displacement.

2. Cosmetic Deformity: Used when there is external nasal deformity or deviation needing correction.

3. Nasal Obstruction: Indicated if the fracture causes significant nasal airway obstruction.

4. Timing: Best performed within 7-10 days after injury, before significant callus formation.

5. Patient Preference: Chosen when the patient prefers a less invasive procedure and accepts potential minor residual deformity.

Advantages:

1. Minimally Invasive: Avoids surgical incisions, reducing infection risk and scarring.

2. Shorter Recovery: Patients typically recover faster with less downtime than with open reduction.

3. Outpatient Procedure: Often done under local anesthesia, reducing hospital stay and costs.

4. Reduced Morbidity: Lower risk of complications such as infection, septal perforation, and external scarring.

5. Cost-Effective: Lower overall cost due to reduced operative time, anesthesia, and hospital resources.

Techniques & Instruments:

1. Digital Manipulation:

• Uses fingers to manually realign the nasal bones.

• Pressure is applied to move the bones back into position.

2. Asch Forceps: Used to elevate depressed nasal bones by inserting forceps into the nasal cavity and prying fractured segments into alignment.

3. Walsham Forceps: Grabs and manipulates the nasal bones externally. The forceps are applied over the nasal bridge, and bones are maneuvered back into place.

4. Boies Elevator: Elevates depressed nasal bone fragments. The elevator is placed inside the nasal cavity to lift segments into alignment.

5. External Splinting: An external splint (e.g., thermoplastic or aluminum) is applied post-reduction to maintain bone position. Internal splints or nasal packing may also be used.

6. Nasal Packing: Supports the realigned bones internally, with packs placed inside the nasal cavity to maintain position and reduce swelling and bleeding.

Quick Review #213 - #dental #dentist #dentistry #dentalstudent #dentalschool #teeth #cavity #wisdomteeth #extraction #oralsurgery #oralsurgeon #pregnant #pregnancy #breastfeeding #toothpain #tylenol #ibuprofen

Both acetaminophen and ibuprofen are generally considered safe for use in breastfeeding mothers, however there are some considerations to be aware of:

A - Acetaminophen (Paracetamol):

1. Safety: Acetaminophen is considered safe for use during breastfeeding. It is one of the most commonly used pain relievers and antipyretics for nursing mothers.

2. Breastmilk Transfer: Acetaminophen passes into breastmilk in small amounts, but the levels are generally too low to cause harm to the infant.

3. Infant Concerns: There are no significant adverse effects reported in infants exposed to acetaminophen through breastmilk. It is typically well-tolerated by infants.

B - Ibuprofen:

1. Safety: Ibuprofen is also considered safe for breastfeeding mothers. It is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) commonly used for pain, inflammation, and fever.

2. Breastmilk Transfer: Ibuprofen passes into breastmilk in minimal amounts, and its short half-life and low levels in milk make it unlikely to affect the nursing infant.

3. Infant Concerns: No significant adverse effects have been reported in breastfed infants whose mothers take ibuprofen. It is preferred over other NSAIDs like aspirin due to its safety profile during breastfeeding.

C - Contraindications and Considerations:

1. Allergies: If the mother or infant has a known allergy to acetaminophen or ibuprofen, these medications should be avoided.

2. Chronic Use: While occasional use is safe, chronic or high-dose use should be discussed with a healthcare provider to ensure safety.

3. Infant Health Conditions: If the infant has certain health conditions (e.g., liver disease, in the case of acetaminophen), the use of these medications should be discussed with a healthcare provider.

In summary, both acetaminophen and ibuprofen are considered safe for short-term use in breastfeeding mothers, with no significant concerns for the nursing infant. However, it is always recommended to use the lowest effective dose and consult with a healthcare provider if there are any concerns.

Quick Review #212 - #surgery #surgeon #doctorgallagher #oralsurgery #oralsurgeon #omfs #dentist #dentistry #dental #mandible #maxilla #prognathic #retrognathic

The SNA and SNB angles in cephalometric analysis assess the anteroposterior positions of the maxilla and mandible relative to the cranial base.

• Sella (S): the central point of the Sella turcica, a saddle-shaped depression in the sphenoid bone at the base of the skull.

• Nasion (N): the point located at the intersection of the frontal bone and the nasal bones, at the bridge of the nose. It represents the most anterior point of the frontonasal suture in the midsagittal plane.

• A Point (A): also known as Subspinale, is the deepest concavity on the anterior surface of the maxilla, located between the anterior nasal spine and the alveolar ridge of the upper central incisors. It represents the most anterior point of the maxillary alveolar process.

• B Point (B): also known as Supramentale, is the deepest concavity on the anterior surface of the mandible, located between the infradentale (the tip of the mandibular alveolar process) and the pogonion (the most anterior point on the chin). It represents the most anterior point of the mandibular alveolar process.

SNA (Sella-Nasion-A Point):

• Normal Range: 82° to 84°

• Maxillary Hypoplasia (Retrognathism): SNA < 82°

• Maxillary Hyperplasia (Prognathism): SNA > 84°

SNB (Sella-Nasion-B Point):

• Normal Range: 78° to 80°

• Mandibular Hypoplasia (Retrognathism): SNB < 78°

• Mandibular Hyperplasia (Prognathism): SNB > 80°

Relation to Determining Prognathism vs. Retrognathism:

• Prognathism: A condition where the maxilla or mandible is positioned anteriorly (forward) relative to the cranial base. This is indicated by an SNA > 84° for maxillary prognathism or an SNB > 80° for mandibular prognathism.

• Retrognathism: A condition where the maxilla or mandible is positioned posteriorly (backward) relative to the cranial base. This is indicated by an SNA < 82° for maxillary retrognathism or an SNB < 78° for mandibular retrognathism.

These values are crucial in diagnosing skeletal discrepancies and planning orthodontic or surgical interventions.
