The surgical goals for treating proximal tibial fractures are to restore articular congruity, the mechanical axis, and knee motion while avoiding soft-tissue complications. The fracture pattern should be correctly identified and understood. For fractures with minimal intra-articular extension, fracture fixation with an intramedullary nail can decrease the risk of infection because it uses a sma...

Comparative study conducted on eighty dentate mandibular fracture patients at maxillofacial unit of de,Montmorency College of Dentistry / Punjab Dental Hospital Lahore, treated by open reduction and internal Fixation (ORIF) by mini plates and screws in two Groups. Group-A, treated by two plate fixation and Group-B, treated by one plate fixation with tension banding by an archbar in place of sec...

BACKGROUND Reports of diverse outcomes in modular mini-keel tibial componentry for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have raised concerns about early aseptic loosening. Cruciate-retaining (CR) prostheses, using mini-keel implants, have yet to be reported and compared to posterior-stabilizing (PS) designs. METHODS A retrospective, case-matched study of 91 consecutive TKAs (n = 46 CR; n = 45 PS pro...

In this first part of a two-part study, experiments were performed to investigate condensation of FC-72 along parallel, square micro-channels with a hydraulic diameter of 1 mm and a length of 29.9 cm, which were formed in the top surface of a solid copper plate. The condensation was achieved by rejecting heat to a counter flow of water through channels brazed to the underside of the copper plat...

Over the past many years, various bone plating systems have been developed to provide stable fixation for the mandible fractures were proposed and performed. The aim of the study was to evaluate efficacy of three dimensional (3-D)titanium mini plates in the management of mandibular fractures, and to analyze structural stability of the fractured bone fragments after fixation, to evaluate the bio...

The aim of the study. Carry out a comparative analysis support ability human jaw bone tissue in monocortical and bicortical installation mini-implant own design OMG.
 Research methods. In order to study biomechanical characteristics developed OMG capacity during installation, finite element method (MSE) was used. scheme 2-D model (length 8 mm, diameter 1.8 mm) provided full penetration thr...

The vertebrate eye is a highly specialized sensory organ, which is derived from the anterior neural plate, head surface ectoderm, and neural crest-derived mesenchyme. The single central eye field, generated from the anterior neural plate, divides to give rise to the optic vesicle, which evaginates toward the head surface ectoderm. Subsequently, the surface ectoderm, in conjunction with the opti...

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to analyze the patterns of tooth movements when distalization of mandibular molars using a mini-plate took place. A finite element analysis was applied to analyze patterns of tooth movements. METHODS The model of the mandible and teeth were used to build a finite element analysis model, and a mini-plate was inserted in the mandibular ramus. Two differ...
