Characterization of antigen-presenting cells in human apical periodontitis lesions by flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2006)
Aim To analyse phenotypic characteristics of antigen-presenting cells (APC), isolated from human periapical lesions by flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry. Methodology Sixteen periapical lesions were digested for 15 min ...
The therapeutic use of botulinum toxin in cervical and maxillofacial conditions: an evidence-based review
(Mosby-Elsevier, New York, 2007)
Introduction. The role of botulinum toxin as a therapeutic agent for several conditions is expanding. We sought to determine if botulinum toxin is safe and effective in treating patients with cervical dystonia and maxillofacial ...
Craniofacial complex specificities in five men with sex reversal syndrome
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2008)
In order to clarify the role of sex chromosome constitution in craniofacial growth control, we compared craniofacial morphology of men with sex reversal syndrome (46, XX) with the morphology of normal men, Klinefelter's ...
The effects of acute and chronic lithium treatment on rat submandibular salivation
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2005)
OBJECTIVE: Acute and chronic actions of lithium on salivation induced by agonists associated with receptor-linked hydrolysis of membrane inositol phospholipids (carbachol and phenylephrine) and by agonist linked to activation ...
Adhesion between fiber posts and resin luting agents: A microtensile bond strength test and an SEM investigation following different treatments of the post surface
(Journal of Adhesive Dentistry, 2007)
Purpose: (1) To evaluate the interfacial strength between FRC Postec posts and three luting agents (Multilink, Variolink 11, and MultiCore Flow) following different surface treatments, and (2) to observe the effect of ...
Simple preservation of a maxillary extraction socket using beta-tricalcium phosphate with type I collagen: Preliminary clinical and histomorphometric observations
(Canadian Dental Association, 2008)
Alveolar atrophy following tooth extraction remains a challenge for future dental implant placement. Immediate implant placement and postextraction alveolar preservation are 2 methods that are used to prevent significant ...
Remaining Unreacted Methacrylate Groups in Resin-Based Composite With Respect to Sample Preparation and Storing Conditions Using Micro-Raman Spectroscopy
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2008)
The aim of this study was to measure degree of conversion (DC) of resin-based composites (RBCs) using micro-Raman spectroscopy followed by different sample preparation procedures and storing conditions. Ninety samples of ...
Temperature Changes in Silorane-, Ormocer-, and Dimethacrylate-Based Composites and Pulp Chamber Roof during Light-Curing
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing, Inc, Malden, 2009)
Light-curing of resin-based composites (RBCs) is associated with temperature increase in the pulp chamber, which may have a detrimental effect on the vital pulp. The purpose of the study was to evaluate temperature changes ...
Hydrolytic stability of composite repair bond
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2007)
The hydrolytic stability of composite repairs is a desirable property. In the present study, the composite repair microtensile bond strength, failure mode distribution, and nanoleakage occurrence before and after thermocycling ...
Mesiodistal size of deciduous teeth in subjects with unilateral cleft lip and palate
(Orthodontics & Craniofacial Research, 2002)
The aim of this study was to investigate whether there was an association between presence of a cleft and reduced size of deciduous tooth on the cleft side. In this investigation, 58 study models of patients with unilateral ...
