INTRODUCTION Base metals have a wide use in casting methods. Sometimes they are reused in laboratories which may have an adverse effect on the restoration marginal integrity. This study aimed to investigate the effect of recasting of alloys on marginal integrity of restorations. MATERIALS AND METHODS Models with two types of finishing lines shoulder bevel 45° and shoulder 135° were produced a...

The relationship between metallic cast crowns and tensile strength according to cement types submitted to thermocycling was studied. Seventy-two metallic crowns were cast with Verabond II Ni-Cr alloy and cemented in standardized preparations with 10 masculine tapering. Three types of finishing line (45-degree chamfered, 20-degree bevel shoulder and right shoulder) were made with diamond burs on...

A number of complications have been ascribed to shoulder arthroscopy, but pulmonary edema is rarely reported. 64-year-old female underwent right arthroscopic repair for supraspinatus and subscapular tears under intermuscular sulcus brachial plexus block (ISBPB) general anesthesia. Finishing suture torn tendon, acromion distal clavicle plasty, the patient represented symptoms dyspnea, oxygen sat...

Loess shoulder-lines are significant structural lines which divide the complicated loess landform into loess interfluves and gully-slope lands. Existing extraction algorithms for shoulder-lines mainly are based on local maximum of terrain features. These algorithms are sensitive to noise for complicated loess surface and the extraction parameters are difficult to be determined, making the extra...

Film thickness, strength, solubility and microleakage of dental cements are essential factors in cement selection by dentist. Since failure of metal ceramic restorations is mostly due to their marginal leakage and provious studies have shown that microleakage of Resin, Glassionomer and Zincphosphate cements are different, this study was done to compare the rate of microleakage between Ariadent ...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to compare the precision of optical impression (Trios, 3Shape) versus that of conventional impression (Imprint IV, 3M-ESPE) with three different margins (shoulder, chamfer, and knife-edge) on Frasaco teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS The sample comprised of 60 zirconia half-crowns, divided into six groups according to the type of impression and margin. Scanning el...

Finishing is the final phase of the gene sequencing process employed in the Human Genome Project. During the finishing process, analysts inspect and resolve ambiguous regions of DNA. While other phases of gene sequencing have evolved into high-volume, automated processes, finishing has remained manual, time-consuming, and costly. This thesis studies finishing as an example of a broader class of...
