For the last three decades, the position of the Triassic–Jurassic boundary (TJB) in nonmarine strata has largely been based on its palynostratigraphic placement just below the oldest basalts of the Central Atlantic magmatic province (CAMP) in the Newark Supergroup of eastern North America. This boundary, however, is demonstrably older than the TJB as it is defined in marine strata. Thus, the pa...

Abstract The vast majority of extrusive carbonatites are calcitic rocks which may be confused with sedimentary limestones, thus requiring a disambiguation criterion. Extrusive classified based on quantitative criteria that tend to avoid genetic mechanisms. Carbonatite nomenclature is in progress but regulated by the International Union Geological Sciences norm for igneous rocks. Carbonate rock ...

root fracture injuries affect up to 7% of permanent teeth. this type of injury is rarely seen in teeth with open apices and depending on the fracture site, the prognosis is good. this case report describes a horizontal intra-alveolar root fracture in the middle third of a maxillary central incisor associated with an extrusive luxation of the coronal segment and its treatment in a 6-year-old gir...

OBJECTIVES To comparatively evaluate the extrusive forces and torquing moments on the posterior dentition generated during anterior intrusion with different intrusion techniques in the maxillary and mandibular dental arch. MATERIAL AND METHODS Seven wire specimens were used for each of the following intrusive arches: Utility arch 0.016 x 0.016' Blue Elgiloy, Utility arch 0.017 x 0.025' TMA an...
