To assess management of non-syndromic dens evaginatus affecting permanent maxillary central incisor, we performed a systematic review and also present a case report. We searched PubMed via MEDLINE and the reference lists of included reports. Eligible studies were any type of clinical studies describing the management of non-syndromic dens evaginatus affecting the crown of a permanent maxillary ...

Noise reduction capabilities of slat cusp serration were experimentally assessed and demonstrated for a 30P30N three-element high-lift airfoil fitted with two different types serrated cusps. Aerodynamic characteristics evaluated the aid surface pressure distribution, insignificant differences found among all tested configurations. The unsteady flow serrations examined using near- far-field meas...

OBJECTIVE Patients with supracoronary ascending aortic aneurysms can have aortic insufficiency (AI) due to dilatation of the sinotubular junction and/or associated cusp pathology. The incidence and types of cusp lesions as well as the effect of AI severity and cusp repair techniques on outcome in this patient population is not well defined. METHODS Since 1996, 55 patients (mean age: 65 ± 13 y...

talon cusp is an accessory cusp similar to a projection, extending from the cingulum or cemento-enamel junction to the incisal edge. it occurs on labial or palatal surfaces of primary or permanent anterior teeth in both arches. this accessory cusp can occur as an isolated entity or in association with other dental anomalies. occurrence of a talon cusp on supernumerary teeth is rare and uncommon...

INTRODUCTION This in vitro study evaluated the influence of composite thickness (with or without fiber reinforcement) on fracture resistance of direct restorations in endodontically treated teeth. METHODS AND MATERIALS Fifty-six intact human premolars were chosen and randomly divided into four groups (n=14). After preparation of a mesio-occluso-distal (MOD) cavities and cusp reduction, the te...

Introduction With specific combinations of B0-field, B1-field, and gradient field, peripheral signals outside the prescribed field of view (FOV) can fold back onto the image, resulting in a bright spot, a series of spots, a band, or a “feather-like” artifact along the phase encoding direction. In a fast spin echo (FSE) image, this type of artifact has been termed as cusp artifact [1,2], annefac...

There are many treatment options for the pediatric patient with a talon cusp (TC). The purpose of this paper was to report the case of a TC involving a primary maxillary right central incisor in a 14-month-old male causing displacement of the affected tooth. The etiology of a TC is thought to be a disturbance during the morphodifferentiation stage of tooth development. Clinical problems include...

This paper outlines the use of a High Level Architecture (HLA) compliant design for the Carleton University Simulator Project (CUSP). HLA is a modular interoperability standard (IEEE 1516) for combining distributed, networked simulations. Interoperability is achieved through the standardization of the communication interfaces between simulation components. Reduction of large, monolithic simulat...
