OBJECTIVES The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the efficacy of two retreatment rotary systems in the removal of Gutta-percha (GP) and sealer from the root canal walls with or without solvent. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-eight extracted human mandibular first premolars were prepared and obturated with GP and AH Plus sealer. Samples were then randomly divided into four groups. Group I...

Differences in the dynamics of powder densification between eccentric and rotary machine were pointed out by compressing at different compression pressures microcrystalline cellulose, lactose monohydrate and dicalcium phosphate dihydrate and recovering the corresponding stress/strain data in both machines equipped to monitor punches displacement and compression forces. Heckel plots were then ob...

Watches bene�t from a long design history. Designers and engineers have successfully built devices using rotary physical inputs such as crowns, bezels, and wheels, separately or combined. Smart watch designers have explored the use of some of these inputs for interactions. However, a systematic exploration of their combinations has yet to be done. We investigate the design space of interactions...

Our system allows the formal verification of digital circuits using specifications expressed in English. Verification is carried out by the SMV model checker program [McM92]. SMV requires specifications to be written in the temporal logic CTL (computation tree logic). SMV’s model checking algorithm carries out inference over CTL formulas, with respect to a formal representation of a circuit. Th...

Introduction: Although rotary instrumentation has been widely studied in permanent dentition, it is a rather new field of study concerning primary teeth. Purpose: We aimed to evaluate apical displacement and time needed for instrumentation of root canals of primary molars by manual and rotary techniques. Materials and Methods: Root canals of 144 extracted first and second primary maxillary mola...

BACKGROUND In endodontic therapy, continuous rotary instrumentation reduced debris compared to reciprocal instrumentation, which might affect the incidence of post-endodontic pain (PP). The aim of our study was to assess whether PP incidence and levels were influenced by the choice of rotary or reciprocal instruments. METHODS In this meta-analysis the Pubmed and EM databases were searched for...

IJMDS ● www.ijmds.org ● January 2015; 4(1) 701 Review Article Single file niti-rotary systems Kumar SR, Gade V ABSTRACT The cleaning and shaping of root canals is a major step in root canal treatment procedure, which aims at removal of all the tissue debris from the root canal space while removing the inner layers of root canal dentin. With Nickel titanium (NiTi) rotary instruments this goal is...

purpose : to determine the fusional amplitudes and the frequency of hetrophoria, in our patients methods : in this cross sectional study, 111 adults with mean age of 25.6 years were included. all participants had best corrected visual acuity (bcva) better than 20/25, more than 60 sec of arc stereopsis and had no heterotropia or other significant eye disorders. fusional amplitudes were measured ...
