Abstract :
Oral and maxillofacial myiasis is still a pathology common in humans. It is seen to be common in patients with poor oral hygiene, alcoholism, senility, severe uncontrolled physical or mental illness, suppurating lesions, severe halitosis, and other conditions. Here in this article, we present 3 cases of Myiasis of the oral and maxillofacial region. Myiasis is an uncommon illness mostly brought on by particular dipteran fly larvae invading tissue. Because the oral cavity rarely provides the essential habitat conducive to a larval lifecycle, oral myiasis is more "rare" and "unique." Poor dental hygiene, halitosis, trauma, senility, learning difficulties, and conditions that challenge one's physical and mental capacities are common predisposing factors. Treatment for oral myiasis is necessary right away since it can cause rapid tissue destruction and deformity. The course of treatment involves using chemical agents and then manually removing the maggots from the mouth cavity. The greatest ways to avoid oral myiasis are by good sanitation, personal and environmental hygiene and cleanliness, and special attention to those who are disabled.
