    Aim: Bisphosphonates (BPs) are inorganic pyrophosphate analogs used for the treatment of various diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge and attitudes of general dental practitioners (GDP), specialist trainees (ST), and specialists (S) in Turkey toward medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) and to optimize future training programs in this field. Materials and Methods: A self-report questionnaire consisting of 7 questions about demographic data, knowledge about BPs, MRONJ and treatment modalities was prepared and send to the members of Turkish Dental Association via email. Results: A total of 209 participants were included in this survey. The mean age of the ST group was significantly lower than the mean ages of the GDP and S groups (P= 0.003, P= 0.038). GDP are less likely to think of BPs administration and radiotherapy treatment than S or ST upon observation of an exposed bone in the head-and-neck region (P=0.048, P=0.008). In comparison to the S and ST groups, the GDP group displayed less knowledge regarding the radiological and intraoral examination of patients undergoing BP therapy (P= 0.034). Conclusion: The increasing awareness of dentists about usage and side effects of BPs is important for preventing MRONJ. The GDP group displayed significantly less knowledge regarding the radiological and intraoral examinations of patients undergoing BP therapy. Greater efforts are required to increase education and knowledge of MRONJ and BPs among dental practitioners.

    Removal of a maxillary third molar displaced in the infratemporal fossa using an intraoral approach
    (2021) Kasapoglu, Metin Berk; Gökçe, Gözde; Çebi, Ahmet Taylan; Cankaya, Abdulkadir Burak
    Removal of an impacted maxillary third molar can be challenging for both dental clinicians and oral surgeons. Frequently encountered complications include infection, pain, swelling, root fractures, trismus, and haemorrhage. In addition, unexpected displacement of the maxillary third molar may be encountered during the extraction process. This case report presents a maxillary third molar displaced to the infratemporal fossa, as well as removal of the tooth following 1 month, along with the causative factors. The roles of orthopantomography and dental volumetric tomography scans in determining the localization of the tooth are discussed, together with different surgical options and risks for surgical removal of the tooth from the infratemporal fossa.
