UNLABELLED A study is made of the experience gained with the Child Oral Care Program (Plan de Atención Dental Infantil, PADI) in the Service of Stomatology of Valencia University General Hospital (Valencia, Spain) after four years in operation (July 2003 - July 2007). STUDY DESIGN The sample comprised 2626 children between 5-14 years of age, pertaining to department 9 of the Valencian public ...

objective: in a cavity prepared through endodontic surgery, application of a material to provide apical seal and prevent bacterial and tissue exudates is of great importance. the purpose of this study was to compare the sealing ability of biocalex with white mta, gray mta, and amalgam as root-end fillings. materials and methods: sixty-six single-rooted extracted human teeth were cleaned, shaped...

this study compared the marginal adaptation of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) and mta-like materials as root-end fillings after incubation in phosphate buffer saline (pbs), a synthetic tissue fluid, for either 1 week or 2 months.in this experimental study, seventy-two extracted human single-rooted teeth were prepared and obturated with gutta-percha and ah26 sealer. the apical 3 mm of the root...

BACKGROUND/AIM Glass ionomer cements (GIC) belong to the group of polycarboxyl cements, and one of the principal characteristics of these materials is their anticariogenic potential of fluorine release into saliva and enamel-dentin substance. The aim of this study was to examine the content of released fluorine from GIC restorations (Fuji IX, GC, Japan) of young permanent teeth in the medium of...

In offered work the series of problems of an analytical number theory is surveyed. This problems have direct and defining reflection in prime numbers distribution. For their solving the new method called as a method of fillings was developed. In basis of its the functional imaging lays of the integrated characteristics and elements of all period of generators grids on an interval, and the syste...

INTRODUCTION The outcome predictors identified with data from periapical radiographs (PA) and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans might not be the same. This retrospective study evaluated various factors that might affect the outcome of root canal therapy. METHODS In total, 115 teeth (143 roots) with vital pulps were endodontically treated and followed up 2 years after treatment. Multi...

We exhibit a weight-preserving bijection between semi-standard Young tableaux and semi-skyline augmented fillings to provide a combinatorial proof that the Schur functions decompose into nonsymmetric functions indexed by compositions. The insertion procedure involved in the proof leads to an analogue of the Robinson-SchenstedKnuth Algorithm for semi-skyline augmented fillings. This procedure co...
