Anatomical Study With Clinical Significance of the Buccomandibular Space: A Complementary Ultrasonographic Study to Cadaveric Dissection

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The buccomandibular space is a potential space located within the oral and maxillofacial regions. This morphological study aimed to provide a detailed anatomical description and ultrasonographic examination of the buccomandibular space and its adjacent structures, to discuss its clinical significance—particularly in relation to pathological ...

Adjunctive Botulinum Toxin Type A for Bruxism and Sweat‐Worsened Facial Blistering in Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa: A Case Series

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Capsule Summary Bruxism and sweat‐induced facial blisters can affect patients with Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (RDEB) quality of life (QoL). We present the outcomes of orofacial BTX‐A infiltrations to treat these conditions. Three patients with severe RDEB, bruxism and microstomia received BTX‐A infiltrations (50U‐100U) in masseters and ...

Outcomes and Innervation of Gracilis for Pediatric Facial Paralysis: A Systematic Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This systematic review compares innervation techniques for gracilis free muscle transfer in pediatric facial paralysis. Masseteric innervation produced the greatest commissure excursion, cross‐facial nerve grafting enabled spontaneous smiles, and dual innervation balanced both with high satisfaction and low complication rates across techniques ...
