In this paper, the forming principle, meshing features and tooth surface equation were introduced. And the modal parameters distribution of cylindrical gears with arcuate tooth trace was researched. The results show: 1. The modulus was the biggest impact factor for modal and natural frequency of cylindrical gears with arcuate tooth trace, then tooth width, and the radius of tooth line have the ...

Impairments in cell migration processes may cause various diseases, among which cancer cell metastasis, tumor angiogenesis, and the disability of immune cells to infiltrate into tumors are prominent ones. Mathematical modeling has been widely used to analyze the cell migration process. Cell migration is a complicated process and requires statistical methods such as random walk for proper analys...

Oxygen and hydrogen isotope signatures of animal tissues are strongly correlated with the isotope signature of local precipitation and as a result, isotope signatures of tissues are commonly used to study resource utilization and migration in animals and to reconstruct climate. To better understand the mechanisms behind these correlations, we manipulated the isotope composition of the drinking ...

During the formation of repetitive ectodermally derived organs such as mammary glands, lateral line and teeth, the tissue primordium iteratively initiates new structures. In the case of successional molar development, new teeth appear sequentially in the posterior region of the jaw from Sox2 cells in association with the posterior aspect of a pre-existing tooth. The sequence of molar developmen...

The main objective of this study was to map global gene expression in order to provide information about the populations of mRNA species participating in murine tooth development at 24 h intervals, starting at the 11th embryonic day (E11.5) up to the 7th post-natal day (P7). The levels of RNA species expressed during murine tooth development were mesured using a total of 58 deoxyoligonucleotide...

Tooth loss or damage, such as that caused by dental caries and periodontal disease, can cause fundamental problems with oral functions. The development of regenerative therapy for tooth tissue repair and whole-tooth replacement is currently considered a novel treatment with the potential to fully recover tooth function. Several mesenchymal stem cell-like cell types have been identified in oral ...

During the formation of repetitive ectodermally derived organs such as mammary glands, lateral line and teeth, the tissue primordium iteratively initiates new structures. In the case of successional molar development, new teeth appear sequentially in the posterior region of the jaw from Sox2(+) cells in association with the posterior aspect of a pre-existing tooth. The sequence of molar develop...

Objective. To identify participants' satisfaction with appearance and the desired treatment to improve aesthetics. Materials and Methods. 220 participants (127 males and 93 females, mean age = 21.4 ± 1.5 years) were recruited into the study. A structured questionnaire was used to assess patients' satisfaction with appearance and what treatment they desire to improve aesthetics. Participants sco...

BACKGROUND Only a handful of studies have assessed tooth loss risk in chronic periodontitis patients following active therapy and factors associated with it. AIMS The aim of this retrospective study was to assess tooth loss in a cohort of chronic periodontitis patients undergoing maintenance care in a UK private practice setting. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred chronic periodontitis patie...
