Publication Crown Lengthening Surgery for Enhancing Restorative Treatment in Esthetic Zone(Kathmandu University, 2021) Dawadi, A; Humagain, M; Sapkota, B; Subba, M; Neupane, M; Lamichhane, SABSTRACT For obtaining adequate retention for restoring cases like subgingival caries or extensive caries that shortens the tooth, short clinical crown, and fractures, it is usually necessary to disclose more tooth structure. Crown lengthening procedure is done to increase the clinical crown length for restorative or esthetic reasons without breaching the biologic width. These procedures are also utilized to improve the appearance and retention of restorations placed within the esthetic zone. We report a case of crown lengthening surgery with an internal bevel gingivectomy which was done in our department without compromising tooth support and esthetics. KEY WORDS Crown lengthening, Esthetics, GingivectomyPublication Peripheral Cemento-Ossifying Fibroma(Kathmandu University, 2017) Humagain, M; Dawadi, A; Srii, R; Poudel, PABSTRACT Peripheral cemento-ossifying fibroma (PCOF), a relatively uncommon lesion, reactive in nature is seen as an overgrowth of the gingival tissues often leading to periodontal problems. It is a benign tumor with slow-growing potential commonly affecting the anterior maxilla whose pathogenesis till date is uncertain. It is usually challenging to diagnose peripheral cemento-ossifying fibroma based on clinical observation and examination, hence histopathological examination is mandatory to arrive at an accurate diagnosis. Recurrence of the lesion is common unless and until it is completely excised. We present the report of two cases of peripheral cemento-ossifying fibroma of our department, complaining of a mass in the gingiva of posterior maxilla and mandible.
