Pentraxin-3 Levels in Gingival Crevicular Fluid during Canine Retraction with NiTi Coil Spring and Active Tieback
Aim: Orthodontic treatment is routinely carried out in patients with the purpose of correcting various forms of dental malocclusions. Retraction of the canines can be achieved either individually or along with incisor. Pentraxin-3 (PTX-3) is regarded as the true independent indicator of disease activity. Hence, we undertook the present study to assess and compare the level of PTX-3 in patients ...
متن کاملCharacterization of Constrained Aged Niti Strips for Using In Artificial Muscle Actuators (Technical Note)
Marvelous bending/straightening effects of two-way shape memory alloy (TWSMA) help their employment in design and manufacturing of new medical appliances. Constrained ageing with bending load scheme can induce two-way shape memory effect (TWSME). Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis, electrical resistivity measurement (ERM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) are employed to dete...
متن کاملVoice coil actuators for percussion robotics
Percussion robots have successfully used a variety of actuator technologies to activate a wide array of striking mechanisms. Popular types of actuators include solenoids and DC motors. However, the use of industrial strength voice coil actuators provides a compelling alternative given a desirable set of heterogeneous features and requirements that span traditional devices. Their characteristics...
متن کاملOpen-Coil Retraction Spring
Sliding mechanic has become a popular method for space closure with developments in preadjusted edgewise appliance. Furthermore, various space closing auxiliaries have been developed and evaluated extensively for their clinical efficiency. Their effectiveness enhanced with optimum force magnitude and low-load deflection rate (LDR)/force decay. With the advent of NiTi springs in orthodontics, LD...
متن کاملCompression Garments: Informed by Sensory Integration Dysfunction
This paper describes a user focused approach to the design of made-to-measure pressure emitting contemporary garments for children who are affected by the development disorder sensory integrative dysfunction (SID). These garments aim to aid the integration of tactile (touch), vestibular (movement) and proprioceptive (body position) sensations. The approach builds on previous pressure garment st...
