Gardner syndrome, an autosomal dominant inherited condition, is a subtype of familial adenomatous polyposis. It causes lesions in bones, skin, and teeth, as well as multiple gastrointestinal polyps, which, if left untreated, become malignant. Because patients with colorectal cancer have a low survival rate, early diagnosis and treatment of Gardner syndrome is critical. Therefore, the characteristic lesions of Gardner disease that appear on the face, jaws, and oral cavity must be understood; these can be evaluated by oral and maxillofacial clinicians. This report describes a case that was diagnosed and treated earlier with the help of a routine oral and maxillofacial examination and has had a seemingly good prognosis so far.

Bisphosphonate is used widely for osteoporosis treatment, but a rising concern is the risk of osteonecrosis after long-term bisphosphonate use. Such cases are increasing, suggesting a need for research to prevent and treat bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of jaws. A 63-year-old female took bisphosphonate (Fosamax$^{(R)}$) for four years for treatment of osteoporosis and stopped medication two months ago because of unhealed wound. She was treated with marginal mandibulectomy maintaining the inferior border, and a metal plate was placed to prevent mandible fracture. Four months after the mandibulectomy, mandible reconstruction surgery using iliac bone and allograft was done. Six months after reconstruction, implant placement and treatment with an overdenture was done without complications. This study presents a case with a successful result.

In spite of the radical increase of chemical poisoning cases caused by prevalent of oranic chlorine like endosulfan, the study of detection of chemical poisoning has seldom been attempted; the study of poisoning in teeth, which is more secure physiochemically, and in all the oral tissues has been even less attempted. The author has administered endosulfan into the month of a rabbit, causing its death, and tried to detect endosulfan in the teeth, jaws, and oral tissues through forensic chemical and histopathological tests. The result obtained is as follows : 1. By thin layer chromatography, endosulfan was detected in the jews, dental hard tissues, dental pulp, blood, and the liver. 2. By gas chromatography, it was also detected in the jaws, dental hard tissues, dental pulp, blood, and the liver. 3. The congestion and hemorrhage in buccal mucosa, palatal mucosa, and dental pulp was detected.

This study was done using the 45° oblique lateral old, 18 males and 27 females, with normal occlusion, premolars and molars on upper and lower jaws. Axial inclination to nasal floor, occlusal plane and inter-axial inclination were examined. In addition the position of each tooth was examined in height and depth in upper and lower jaws. The results were obtained as follows; 1. The inclination of long axis of upper 1st premolar was most nearly perpendicular, upper canine was tilted mesially, and 2nd premolar and molars were tilted distally. 2. The inclination of long axis of lowers molar were tilted mesially. 3. There were no severe variation on the inter-axial inclination of canine to mandibular plane, and 2nd molar.

In-plane type micro piezoelectric micro grippers with pneumatic lines for manipulation biological cells and micro parts were designed, fabricated, and characterized. Micro grippers were fabricated through the final micro-sanding process after wafer level bonding between the etched 4' Si wafer with pneumatic channels and 4' glass wafer. Displacements between two jaws of fabricated micro grippers were linearly increased with applying voltages to piezoelectric actuator. In the case of applying 80 V, the displacement between two jaws was $160{\mu}m$. Using fabricated micro grippers, manipulation tests for biological cell and micro parts with the sizes less than $100{\mu}m$ are in process.

Radicular cyst is the most common odontogenic cyst occurring in the jaws. The cyst is commonly found in relation to the maxillary anterior teeth in the third and fifth decade of life. Although multiple radicular cysts are not uncommon in the jaws, bilaterally symmetrical representation of these cysts is rare. Radiographs prior to extraction help in diagnosis of these cysts and thereby prevent further morbidities. We report a case of 16-year-old male patient who presented bilateral radicular cysts symmetrically in the mandible.

Osteoma is a benign osteogenic tumor composed of cancellous or compact bone, classified as peripheral, central, or extraskeletal. Peripheral osteomas are uncommon. Excluding the maxillary sinuses, the maxilla is a rare site for osteomas. The purpose of this report was to describe clinicopathological and radiological features of two peripheral osteomas occurring in the jaws, one located in the mandible and another in the edentulous maxillary alveolar ridge. The tumors were asymptomatic and were fully excised without any complications or recurrence. The lesions were submitted to histopathological analysis and diagnosed as peripheral osteoma, compact type.
