Potential of information technology in dental education
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2008)
The use of information technology (IT) in dentistry is far ranging. In order to produce a working document for the dental educator, this paper focuses on those methods where IT can assist in the education and competence ...
Flowable composites as intermediate agents without adhesive application in resin composite repair
(Mosher and Linder, Inc, 2008)
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of different intermediate resin agents on composite-to-composite microtensile bond strength (mu TBS). Methods: Composite disks (8 x 4 mm) of Gradia Direct Anterior (N= 15) and Filtek Supreme ...
Immunohistochemical analysis of gamma catenin in Wilms' tumors
(Fetal & Pediatric Pathology, 2008)
The aim of our study was to investigate the expression of γ-catenin in normal kidney and in Wilms' tumor by immunohistochemistry and to correlate the results with tumor stage, histological type, and prognostic group. We ...
Blockade of central vasopressin receptors reduces the cardiovascular response to acute stress in freely moving rats
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2008)
To investigate the contribution of central vasopressin receptors to blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) response to stress we injected non-peptide selective V-1a (SR49059), V-1b (SSR 149415), V-2 (SR 121463) receptor ...
Kinetics and sintering mechanisms of hydro-thermally obtained hydroxyapatite
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2008)
In this paper, the kinetics and sintering mechanism of hydro-thermally synthesized hydroxyapatite in the temperature range 900-1100 degrees C are presented. It was found that at 900 degrees C, the sintering process is very ...
Radiographic changes in alveolar bone height on overdenture abutments: a longitudinal study
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2008)
Objective: Stabilisation of partial dentures is an important part of prosthodontic treatment, particularly in patients with an excessive reduction in alveolar bone supporting their abutment teeth. In these cases, overdenture ...
Quantitative micro-Raman assessment of dentine demineralization, adhesive penetration, and degree of conversion of three dentine bonding systems
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2008)
Unreacted monomers in adhesive systems may cause a reduction in material properties, an increase in the long-term instability of the restoration, and pulpal irritation. The degree of dentine demineralization, adhesive ...
The use of finite element analysis to model bone-implant contact with basal implants
(Mosby-Elsevier, New York, 2008)
Objective. The purpose of this study was to develop a model that accurately represents the interface between bone and basal implants throughout the healing process. Study Design. The model was applied to the biological ...
