Narrow depolarized canals are common in maps of the polarized synchrotron emission of the Milky Way. Two physical effects that can produce these canals have been identified: the presence of Faraday rotation measure (RM) gradients in a foreground screen and the cumulative cancellation of polarization known as differential Faraday rotation. We show that the behaviour of the Stokes parameters Q an...

Ptomaphaminus granophilus n. sp. from Vietnam is described and illustrated. The special subterranean biotope of this species, deep interstices in a granitic blockfield, is emphasized.

concrete is one of the most important construction materials widely using in hydraulic structures, such as lining of irrigation canals. concrete durability might be decreased due to the environmental or inner factors with physical, chemical or mechanical reactions. since, the climatologically condition is variable in most part of the country, local studies are needed to evaluate of the weakness...

AIM The aim of this in-vivo study was to assess the incidence of three roots and four root canals in clinical cases of root-treated mandibular first molars in a Saudi Arabian population. METHODOLOGY A clinical study of 251 root-canal treated permanent mandibular first molars was conducted. The teeth were examined clinically and radiographically. RESULTS The results showed that 5.97% of the ...

In general, maxillary canines contain only single root and root canals, therefore, only few recent studies regarding maxillary canines with two root canals have been reported. This case report will demonstrate a maxillary canine is composed with two root canals which are completely separated, therefore, it will generate more precise understanding of anatomical variations of the maxillary canine...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The knowledge of the pulp anatomy plays an important role in the success of endodontic treatments. PURPOSE The aim of this study was to determine the root and canal morphology of the mandibular second molar teeth in an Iranian population. MATERIAL AND METHODS One hundred intact human mandibular second molars were collected. The teeth were examined visually and the numbe...

INTRODUCTION Broken instruments in root canals complicate routine endodontic treatment. This study aimed to compare apical microleakage in root canals containing broken rotary instruments filled with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), calcium-enriched mixture (CEM) cement, laterally compacted gutta-percha and injected gutta-percha. METHODS AND MATERIALS In this in vitro, experimental study, 80...

OBJECTIVES The success of endodontic treatment is based on cleaning and shaping of the root canals. The root canals have complex morphology and wide individual variations. The objective of this study was to analyze root canals morphology and existence of extra canals in maxillary molars in Saudi subpopulation. METHODS Freshly extracted maxillary first molars (n=100) were included in this stud...

The vestibular apparatus plays a fundamental role in equilibrioception. It is located in the inner ear and it substantially comprises otoliths, which indicate linear acceleration, and semicircular canals, which detect rotational acceleration. In this paper models of different complexity of the semicircular canals are reported and discussed: a monocanal hydro-elastic model and a three-canals mod...

Root canal calcification is considered a great challenge during root canal treatment. Although the application of ultrasonic instruments and dental operating microscope (DOM) has advantages, dealing with calcified root canals still suffers a great risk of failure because of limited information about the location, length, and direction of obliteration on periapical radiographs. In this work, a c...
