Dens in dente: an unusual sequela. Abbreviated case report.

Dens in dente is the result of an invagination of the enamel organ into the developing dental papilla. The full pathologic potential of this lesion is often not fully appreciated. A case is reported in which a cyst resulting from a dens in dente obliterated the maxillary sinus and necessitated root canal therapy and apicoectomies in four adjacent teeth.

PTA deficiency (factor XI deficiency). Report of a case.

A case of a relatively rare coagulopathy has been presented. The mode of inheritance and the incidence of the disease have been discussed. Methods of screening, diagnosis, and treatment of PTA deficiency have been suggested. We have concluded that if a coagulation screen for patients about to undergo oral surgery in a hospital is contemplated, either a partial thromboplastin time or a thromboplastin generation time should be included.
