During the formation of repetitive ectodermally derived organs such as mammary glands, lateral line and teeth, the tissue primordium iteratively initiates new structures. In the case of successional molar development, new teeth appear sequentially in the posterior region of the jaw from Sox2(+) cells in association with the posterior aspect of a pre-existing tooth. The sequence of molar develop...

AIM The primary aim of the present study was to validate the effectiveness of a personalized device able to guide periodontal probing in evaluation of second molar periodontal healing after adjacent third molar surgical extraction. Secondarily, the study analyzed if any patient and tooth related factors affected the second molar periodontal healing as well as if they were able to affect the per...

Ilmenite is a valuable industrial mineral containing Fe and Ti elements. Two composites with different morphology and composition were produced using the reaction of synthesized ilmenite and aluminum. The molar ratios of 1:2 and 1:8 were selected. The critical temperatures of each molar ratio were determined using the Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA). The heat treatment of the systems ...

The study investigates the gender predictability of permanent maxillary first molar teeth. Mesio distal width of 30 permanent maxillary first molar teeth from casts of 15 male and 15 female patients between the age group of 1725 were measured. Results showed that permanent maxillary first molar tooth exhibited sexual dimorphism but accuracy of gender predictability was only moderate.

A proton NMR method for the drtermination of salvation numbers of alkaline earth cations with hexamethyl phosphoramide (HMPA) in nitromethane (NM) as diluents is described. The method is based on monitoring the resonance frequency of HMPA protons as a function of HMPA / metal ion molar ratio at constant metalion concentration. The average salvation number of cations,  , at any HMPA / metal ...

BACKGROUND The incidence of molar pregnancy has demonstrated marked geographic and ethnic differences. The reported data in Nepal is inconsistent with minimal published literature. Thus, we designed a study to determine prevalence of molar pregnancies and demonstrate clinical and epidemiological characteristics of the patients attending a tertiary care center in eastern Nepal. METHODS A retro...

Glycans exhibit enormous structural diversity in nature and are of particular importance for self-cell survival and are often targeted by microbes. In this study, N-glycans (374.9 pmol/mg in dry delipidated weight) were enzymatically released from bovine milk whey protein concentrate, and they were isolated and analyzed by a two-dimensional HPLC mapping technique and/or by MALDI-TOF mass spectr...

Human third molar development is widely used to predict chronological age of sub adult individuals with unknown or doubted age. For these predictions, classically, the radiologically observed third molar growth and maturation is registered using a staging and related scoring technique. Measures of lengths and widths of the developing wisdom tooth and its adjacent second molar can be considered ...
