During evolution Tethyan Realm since Paleozoic, a series ribbon-like (micro-)continents are split from Gondwana drifted northwards to Eurasian continent. The initial opening Neo-Tethys Ocean follows typical continental marginal Cimmeria Gondwana, which generally considered be driven by subduction Paleo-Tethyan plate....

background and aims. the aim of this study was to assess the opening torque of grooved and non-grooved screws made of shape memory alloys (sma) for fixation of mandibular fractures. materials and methods. in this in vitro study the opening torques of ten sma screws with grooves and ten sma screws without grooves were compared in 20 holes (10 holes for grooved screws and 10 holes for non-grooved...

An efficient and simple method for the preparation of Si-Imidazole-HSO4 functionalized magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Si-Im-HSO4 MNPs) and used as an efficient and reusable magnetic catalysts for the regioselective ring opening of epoxides under green conditions in water. This catalyst was used for the ring opening of epoxide corresponding to the thiocyanohydrins and azidohydrines. Compared to t...

Introduction: Marginal fit is a key factor for long term clinical success through any dental restorations. Poor marginal adaptation causes cement dissolution. This can lead to dental caries, gingival irritation, periodontal diseases, and finally treatment failure. The aim of this study was measurement and comparison of marginal gap quantities in metal ceramic and all ceramic dental restorations...
