Mandibular nerve block at the oval foramen using reliable landmarks: refinement of a previously described procedure
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2002)
The aim of this study was to improve the injection technique when blocking the mandibular nerve at the oval foramen by using consistent landmarks. The lower lateral orbital angle (LLOA) and the junction of the external ...
Coupling of composite resin cements to quartz fiber posts: A comparison of industrial and 'chairside' treatments of the post surface
(Journal of Adhesive Dentistry, 2008)
Purpose: To evaluate the influence of surface treatments on microtensile bond strength of luting resin cements to fiber posts. Materials and Methods: Forty-two quartz fiber posts (Light Post, RTD) were divided into 7 groups ...

Effects of radiation therapy on craniofacial and dental implants: a review of the literature
(Mosby-Elsevier, New York, 2009)
Objectives. The theories of the effects of radiation therapy on craniofacial and dental implants have been challenged by new models. Animal and clinical studies differ on the importance of dose effect and implant location ...
Wavelet analysis of discharge dynamics of fusimotor neurons
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2001)
We study the interspike intervals (ISI) time series of the spontaneous fusimotor neuron activity by applying the wavelet transform analysis and confirm the existence of the white noise characteristics of the ISI time series. ...
Effect of curing modes of dual-curing luting systems and root regions on retention of translucent fiber posts in root canals
(Journal of Adhesive Dentistry, 2008)
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of different curing modes of dual-curing luting systems and root regions on the pushout strength of fiber posts to intraradicular dentin. Materials and Methods: Forty-two extracted premolars ...
Surgical management of squamous cell carcinoma of the lip: Analysis of a 10-year experience in 223 patients
(W B Saunders Co-Elsevier Inc, Philadelphia, 2007)
Background: The most common type of lip carcinoma is squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), accounting for approximately 90% of all oral malignancies. Currently, surgery and/or radiotherapy are considered the standards of care for ...
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 ...
Tetraploidy in a 26-month-old girl (cytogenetic and molecular studies)
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2002)
Liveborn infants with tetraploidy are very rare in human pregnancies and usually die during the first days or months. Seven cases of liveborn infants with tetraploidy have previously been reported. Among them only two 92, ...
Effect of intermediate agents and pre-heating of repairing resin on composite-repair bonds
(Operative Dentistry Inc, Indianapolis, 2007)
This study investigated the composite-to-composite microtensile bond strength and interfacial quality after using different combinations of intermediate agents and pre-curing temperatures of repairing resin. Forty-five ...
