Maxillary Midline Diastema – Aetiology And Orthodontic Treatment
... Diastema, which means interval in Greek, is a gap or space between two or more consecutive teeth. It occurs more frequently in the median plane of the maxillary arch between the two central incisors and hence called the median, central or midline diastema.[1,2]Maxillary midline diastemas are an aest ...

Mandibular fracture
Mandibular fracture, also known as fractures of the jaw, are breaks through the mandibular bone. They usually occur due to trauma and are often associated with other facial trauma.The types of mandibular fractures include fractures at the symphyseal area, horizontal ramus, mandibular angle and condylar neck.
