For dental implants, it is vital that an initial soft tissue seal is achieved as this helps to stabilize and preserve the peri-implant tissues during the restorative stages following placement. The study of the implant-soft tissue interface is usually undertaken in animal models. We have developed an in vitro three-dimensional tissue-engineered oral mucosal model (3D OMM), which lends itself to...

background: main objective of this study was to investigate the invasive activity of the liver fluke, pseudamphistomom truncatum against the caspian seal ( pusa caspica ) and was exemplified at the gross, light microscopy (lm) and electron microscopy (em) levels. methods: the study was done on a freshly dead caspian seal in the southern coast of caspian sea. the checked caspian seal probably be...

introdouction: it is important for the clinician to be aware regarding the necessary thickness of materials used as intra-orifice coronal barriers to prevent microleakage. the purpose of this in vitro study was to compare coronal microleakage of three different thicknesses of white and gray angelus mineral trioxide aggregate (wamta, gamta). materials and methods: a total of 66 canals of extract...

BACKGROUND Regardless of the technique and the material used, the goal of obturation remained the same that is to seal every portal of exit in the root canal system. It's not only the apical openings that need to be sealed but also lateral openings, coronal access opening and perforations if they exist failure of the adhesive root canal sealer has led to the idea of usage of dentin bonding agen...

Soft tissue volume and quality are considered important factors for functional esthetic long-term outcomes around natural teeth dental implants. However, achieving them is challenging oral surgeons. Healing of an extraction site combined with normal physiological ridge resorption loss interdental papillae scaffold. Therefore, the rehabilitation these ridges implants or pontic fixed prosthesis u...

in the third season excavation of lama cemetery (chal shahin lama), a cylindrical seal with inscription was found and because of its significance, it was introduced, compared and analyzed. existence of this seal indicates the continuation of nomadic practices of the people of this cemetery in spite of change of material culture (for example, ceramic). the seal of lama and its grave reflect the ...

This article presents a seal development approach that takes actual operating conditions (mounting, sealed pressure, lubricating conditions), seal material, and counterpart machining tolerances into account. The approach was applied to the design of seals for a commercial pneumatic spool valve. A single seal geometry and two seat configurations were specified on the basis of finite element anal...

AIM To evaluate and compare the microleakage of various restorative materials used as coronal barriers between endodontic appointments. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty extracted human permanent posterior teeth were prepared for standardized access cavities with dimensions of 4 × 4 × 4 mm. The teeth were then randomly divided into four groups; Kalzinol, Caviton, GC Fuji IX and GC Fuji II LC. Afte...
