Introduction Full impaction of canines, in both jaws, is a rare phenomenon. It is usually coupled with the persistence of deciduous canines, or any other irregularity in the dental arch. Case report Panoramic radiograph of a 24-year-old female patient showed bilateral canine impaction in both jaws. Due to vestibular, apical and medial position of canines in the upper jaw, the surgical approac...

Insects and mammals cut their food up into small pieces to facilitate ingestion and chemical digestion. Teeth and jaws act as cutting tools, but, unlike engineering tools designed for a specific purpose, must generally cope with substantial variation in food properties and work at many scales. Knowing how teeth and jaws work effectively requires an understanding of the cutting on the edges and ...

Received: 18 April 2008 Accepted: 8 October 2008 Abstract: Langerhans cell histiocytosis is a relatively rare unique disease process characterized by an abnormal proliferation of immature dendritic cells usually affecting children and young adults. Jaws are involved in less than 10% of children with the disease while mandibular involvement in young children is uncommon and bilateral affection i...

Abstract The paper consists in analyzing some of the researches on specialized literature regarding to gripping systems and proposing a new solution for mechanism that can fulfill increasing requirements imposed by flexible manufacturing orientation positioning parts with variable shape dimensions. Some general consideration state art field are presented main development direction indicated. se...

There has been disagreement for more than 100 years concerning the presence or absence of deciduous and successional third premolars in dentition Australian dasyurid marsupial Dasyurus viverrinus as well other species genus Dasyurus. Most authors during 19th 20th centuries have considered missing premolar to be family both jaws, part because reduction size many genera dasyurids. While authors, ...

Abstract Nanoindentation, laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy and weighing ion-spiked organic matrix standards revealed structure-property relations in the microscopic jaw structures of a cosmopolitan bristle worm, Platynereis dumerilii . Hardness elasticity values jaws’ tip region, exceeding those center can be traced back to more metal halogen ions built into structura...

Mosasaurids (Mosasauridae) were specialized marine lizards that evolved and radiated in the Late Cretaceous. Their diversity peaked Maastrichtian, with most diverse faunas known from Morocco. Here we describe a new species of mosasaurid this fauna. Pluridens serpentis sp. nov. is described based on two complete skulls referred jaws. It to elongate robust jaws, small teeth, tooth implantation. H...

Background and aim: Considering the widespread development of implants in dental treatment plans, linear measurements on panoramic radiography are of especial importance. In the present study we investigated the effect of head misalignment up to 15° around vertical and horizontal axes on the magnification rate of digital panoramic radiography in each part of upper and lower jaws. Materia...

The radicular cyst is the most common inflammatory odontogenic in jaws. It a periapical lesion associated with non-vital teeth tooth-bearing regions of jaws slight male predilection. A typically asymptomatic, but if large or secondarily infected may cause swelling. usual radiographic appearance that radiolucent lesion. This case report documents rare 61-year-old mixed-density diagnosed as cyst....
