Chronic Periodontitis (CP) causes inflammation of teeth’s supporting tissues and progressive loss bone attachment. The purpose this study was to compare the treatment methodology for CP using Scaling Root Planning alone in combination with Nd: YAG Laser. : Sixty patients diagnosed generalized moderate chronic periodontitis were randomly assigned two different groups. Group 1: SRP, group 2: SRP ...

To address low contraceptive use in Afghanistan, we supported 2 large public maternity hospitals and 3 private hospitals in Kabul to use modern quality improvement (QI) methods to integrate family planning into postpartum care. In 2012, QI teams comprising hospital staff applied root cause analysis to identify barriers to integrated postpartum family planning (PPFP) services and to develop solu...

Management of tooth avulsion in the permanent dentition often presents a challenge. Definitive treatment planning and consultation with specialists is seldom possible at the time of emergency treatment. Replantation of the avulsed tooth can restore esthetic appearance and occlusal function shortly after the injury. This article describes the management of a child with an avulsed maxillary perma...

At the root of applications for substructure and similarity searching, reaction retrieval, synthesis planning, drug discovery, and physicochemical property prediction is the need for a machine-readable representation of a structure. Systematic nomenclature is unsuitable, and notations and fragment codes have been superseded, except in certain specific applications. Connection tables are widely ...

his paper deals with visual servoing for 6-degree-of-freedom root manipulators, and considers the problem of establishing hether and how it is possible to reach the desired location while eeping all features in the field of view and following a straight ine in the Euclidean space. A path-planning technique based on a arametrization of the camera path through polynomials is proosed, which overco...

Multidisciplinary therapy is essential in dental practice to achieve optimized outcomes. The present case report describes the application of periodontal surgery with a five-year follow-up in a patient with malocclusion and chronic periodontitis. In the presence of periodontal inflammation, orthodontic therapy may result in further periodontal breakdown due to plaque accumulation. In order to p...

This paper provides an extension of pathloss analysis in Urban, Rural and Semi-Urban environments in Oman. A new software package has been developed that incorporates modified propagation models and the proposition of radio frequency (RF) network design output for proper and efficient planning to be used by RF engineers for pathloss studies. The root-mean square error (RMSE) was calculated betw...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Root surface contamination or infection can potentially change the consequences of regenerative periodontal therapies and therefore the modification and disinfection of the contaminated root surfaces are necessary. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to compare the surface characteristics of the extracted human teeth after exposure to four root conditioners in different time peri...

in endodontics, treatment of an open apex tooth with necrotic pulp is a problem. it seems that with promotion of remnants of hertwig’s epithelial sheath or rest of malassez accompany with a good irrigation of root canal we can expect root formation.
