Recurrent caries at crown margins: making a decision on treatment.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate dentists' treatment choices for a crowned tooth with varying degrees of recurrent caries. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 158 dentists participated in the study. A paper patient case (PPC) depicting a radiograph showing varying degrees of recurrent caries at the crown margin was used: PPC1 = small carious lesion away from crown margin; PPC2 = small carious lesion at cro...
متن کاملMind the Crown Margins
Metal free ceramic restorations have increased in demand due to their superior esthetics and more resemblance to the natural teeth, more so now that metal-free biocompatible options are preferred. Although porcelain fused to metal crowns are also used owing to less tooth structure loss in their preparation, the metal portion shows through the marginal area giving a blue-gray, cyanotic appearanc...
متن کاملClinical decision-making for dental caries management.
Scientific information on diagnosis, prevention, and management of dental caries and associated indicators of risk continues to increase rapidly. Patients vary in clinically important ways, however, and uncertainty affects our understanding of risk; diagnostic and prognostic information; efficacy and effectiveness of many preventive, diagnostic, and treatment alternatives; and outcomes associat...

A B S T R A C TIntroduction: Although decision-making processes have become a principal target of study among addiction researchers, few researches are published according to effects of different treatment methods on the cognitive processes underlying decision making up to now. Utilizing cognitive modeling method, in this paper we examine the effects of Methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) on ...
متن کاملA Recurrent Neural Network to Identify Efficient Decision Making Units in Data Envelopment Analysis
In this paper we present a recurrent neural network model to recognize efficient Decision Making Units(DMUs) in Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA). The proposed neural network model is derived from an unconstrained minimization problem. In theoretical aspect, it is shown that the proposed neural network is stable in the sense of lyapunov and globally convergent. The proposed model has a single-laye...
