Convolutional Neural Network Based Analysis - An Aid To Diagnose Bacterial And Fungal Osteomyelitis, Saiprasad Alva, Dominic Augustine, Sowmya Sv, Mukul Saini, Sanjana Shetty
Annual Research Symposium
Osteomyelitis may be classified as Bacterial (Actinomycotic), Fungal (Mucormycotic), or combined based on the etiological agent. During histopathological examination, there is a high chance that bacterial colonies or fungal hyphae may be missed by the human eye, especially when there is a paucity of organisms. This may lead to a faulty diagnosis of the type of osteomyelitis which along with an improper treatment plan would cause further progression of the disease and various other complications. Therefore, the diagnosis of the exact etiological variant of osteomyelitis is of prime importance to design an appropriate treatment plan. In the present study, bone …

Development Of A Portable And Rapid Decalcification Device For Oral Hard Tissue Specimens, Upasana Das, Vijayalakshmi Bhat, Taniya Feroz, Sowmya Sv, Dominic Augustine
Annual Research Symposium
Decalcification is a routinely carried out procedure by oral pathologists, as the lesions involving the pulp can only be seen and identified through decalcified sections. The present methods involve usage of chemical agents, either with inorganic acids which dissolves the calcium to form soluble calcium salts or with chelating agents. Even though the chelating agents preserve the tissue morphology and show excellent microscopic picture, it has less diagnostic efficacy, as the time taken for it to decalcify the specimens is considerably high. It becomes important for us to develop a decalcification technique which will be faster and will maintain the …

Mandibular Bone Block Graft For Localised Ridge Augmentation- A Case Report, Teena Selvaraj
Mandibular Bone Block Graft For Localised Ridge Augmentation- A Case Report, Teena Selvaraj
Annual Research Symposium
Dental implants in the anterior mandible is a challenge for clinicians because of patients exacting esthetic demands and difficult pre-existing anatomy. The placement of endosteal implants requires adequate bone volume for successful osseointegration. When themorphology of the bone does not allow proper implant placement, there are various bone augmentation procedures like bone grafts, which may be autografts, xenografts, allografts or alloplasts aids in reconstruction of the residual alveolar ridge for ideal implant placement. Among various bone grafts, the autogenous bone graft is still the “gold standard” for bone augmentation procedures. The symphysis region can act as an excellent source of …

Root Analogue Implants- The New Route, Subhashini Balaguru
Root Analogue Implants- The New Route, Subhashini Balaguru
Annual Research Symposium
Dental implants are an excellent option for replacing missing teeth. Traditional implants have a cylindrical or tapered geometry with threads along the screw length. The lack of proper congruency between the implant and the socket bone can eventually lead to implant failure due to stability loss and failure in osseointegration. To overcome this problem, novel approaches are being evaluated to manufacture customized root implants. This is expected to reduce the bone and soft-tissue trauma and promote a better primary stability. They do not require bone drilling, sinus lifting, bone augmentation or other traumatic procedures.
