Cigarette staining and cleaning of a maxillofacial silicone.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this study, a maxillofacial silicone elastomer was stained with cigarette smoke. The stain was then removed by solvent extraction using 1,1,1-trichloroethane. The cigarette smoke produced large color changes in the elastomer as measured from spectrophotometric reflectance curves. The solvent was totally effective in removing the cigarette stain without changing the color of the silicone base.

Comparative Assessment of Nuclear and Nucleolar Cytochemical Parameters of Oral Epithelial Cells in Smokers and Non-Smokers by Methyl Green-Pyronin Staining
Introduction: A strong relationship exists between cigarette smoking and the development of oral squamous cell carcinoma. Smoking can significantly increase cellular proliferation. Nevertheless, there is little reference in literature to the cytological assessment of oral mucosa in this respect. Methods: Changes in nuclear and neucleolar cytomorphometric parameters such as diameter, surface, nu...
متن کاملStain removal from a silicone maxillofacial elastomer.
In this study, environmental stains were removed from maxillofacial elastomers by solvent extraction. Silastic 44210, an RTV silicone with proven color and physical property stability, was stained with lipstick, disclosing solution, and methylene blue. These stains were then removed by solvent extraction with each of four chemically dissimilar solvents, namely: toluene, benzene, 1,1,1-trichloro...
متن کاملStain resistance of maxillofacial materials.
The resistance of three silicone and one polyvinyl chloride maxillofacial materials to staining by tea, lipstick, and disclosing solution was measured by reflectance spectrophotometry. Changes in color caused by staining were larger than changes caused by color instability of the base elastomers or pigments under conditions of accelerated aging.
متن کاملComparison of Nucleus and Cytoplasm Diameter of Buccal Mucosa Cells in Cigarette Smokers and Nonsmokers: A Cytomorphometric Study using Feulgen and Papanicolaou Stains
Introduction: A decrease in cell size and an increase in nuclear dimension due to changes in the amount of DNA could be an indicator of early detection of malignant changes. This study aimed to compare the nuclear and cytoplasmic diameters of buccal mucosa cells in cigarette smokers and nonsmokers in a cytomorphometric study using Feulgen and Papanicolaou stains. Material & Methods: In this cas...
متن کاملEffect of tulle on the mechanical properties of a maxillofacial silicone elastomer.
The purpose of this research was to investigate if physical properties could be improved by incorporating a tulle reinforcement material into a maxillofacial silicone elastomer. A-2186 silicone elastomer was used in this study. The study group consisted of 20 elastomer specimens incorporated with tulle and fabricated in dumbbell-shaped silicone patterns using ASTM D412 and D624 standards. The c...
