Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 4
Abstract
Osteomyelitis of the jaws was once a common and dreadful disease because of its long course and associated agony to the patient, but with advent of dental care and use of antibiotics along with improved nutrition and health education, , incidence of osteomyelitis of facial bones has decreased. Osteomyelitis of maxilla is less prevalent as compared to mandible as a result of abundant blood supply & porous bone structure of maxilla leaving it less vulnerable to chronic infection. The uncontrolled diabetes, a polygenic disorder, is a quick growing epidemic in India. This sickness if not managed before extraction can lead to unpleasant consequences of osteomyelitis. The patient’s blood sugar level ought to be in controlled state before extraction. This case report presents clinical features of a fifty three year old male patient who had undergone extraction in an uncontrolled diabetic state and later on developed osteomyelitis of maxilla. This case report also highlights the CBCT features of the same.
