mouth. However,little information has been published on the bone. Dental lasers serve as an adjunct to regular treatments and enhancing outcomes in still others. The laser replaces conventional therapies with equal or improved results.Lasers offer new treatment options that heretofore were not available. Laser dentistry is capable of significantly minimizing discomfort,enhancing recovery times, and improving the overall efficiency of the dental office. We describe the basic researches and the developimg laser devices.]]>

Dermoid cysts in floor of mouth are relatively rare. The term dermoid cyst is used to describe 3 cysts that are closely related histologically: dermoid cyst, epidermoid cyst, and teratoma. These are frequently mistaken as other pathology because of their location and rarity. Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice and the recurrence is extremely rare. We report each case of epidermoid cyst and dermoid cyst of the floor of the mouth with a brief review of literatures.

One type of soft tissue lesions of the oral cavity is lipoma, which is a kind of benign tumor composed of mature lipid cells. Although the lipoma presents as one of the most common mesenchymal neoplasms, most tend to develop on the trunk and proximal portions of the extremities. However, lipomas in the oral and maxillofacial region are much less frequent. Here we present a case of an intraoral lipoma in a six year-old child.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinicopathological features of oral pemphigus vegetans.

METHODSSeven cases of pemphigus vegetans involving oral mucosa were included in this study. The paraffin sections were analyzed by routine light microscope.

RESULTSThere were 5 females and 2 males in this group, with an average age of 52.7 years. The course of diseases was from 3 months to 10 years. Oral manifestations included verrucous or papilliform hyperplasia of oral mucosa, with extensive edema and exudation. Similar skin lesions were found in 5 patients. Under the microscope, pemphigus vegetans showed epithelial thickening with prolonged rete pegs, intraepithelial clefts in suprabasal cells. Eosinophilic microabscesses was often seen within the epithelium. Other microscopic changes were intraepithelial edema and eosinophils infiltration, chronic inflammatory cells infiltration in the lamina propria.

CONCLUSIONThe microscopic features pemphigus vegetans described in this study are of valuable for pathological diagnosis of oral pemphigus vegetans.
