Background and Aim: This study aimed to assess the effect of finishing and polishing time, technique and surface coating on microleakage of encapsulated restorative resin modified glass ionomer (RMGI). Materials and Methods: In this in vitro study, 40 freshly extracted human premolars were selected. Two standard class V cavities were prepared on the buccal and lingual surfaces of each tooth. T...

Background and Aim: One of the problems of all ceramic restorations is their risk of fracture due to occlusal loads. The aim of the present study was to compare the effect of two marginal designs (shoulder and chamfer) on the fracture resistance of IPS-emax all ceramic restorations. Materials and Methods: One extracted maxillary first premolar received chamfer 50' marginal preparation (0.8 m...

The unjust distributional consequences of climate change, and its potentially negative aggregate effect on economic growth and welfare are two reasons to be concerned about climate change. Our knowledge of the impact of climate change is incomplete. Monetary valuation is difficult and controversial. The effect of other developments on the impacts of climate change is largely speculative. Noneth...

Higher order likelihood methods lead to an easily implemented and highly accurate approximation to both joint and marginal posterior distributions. This makes it quite straightforward to assess the influence of the prior, and to assess the effect of changing priors, on the posterior quantiles. We discuss this in the light of some simple examples that illustrate in concrete form the potential fo...

Trade-off reviews the rate of marginal substitution of inputs and outputs onto the efficient frontier. On the other hand, marginal rates of substitution (MRS) are important quantities for analysts and managers. In this paper, by changing the method of Asmild (2004), an algorithm is found that it can be used to calculate the marginal rate of the free disposal hull (FDH) model.
