A study was conducted to find out the optimum tray load and drier type for the drying of osmosed mango, guava slices and aonla segments. The osmosed slices and segments were dehydrated in a cabinet drier, low temperature drier and vacuum drier with the tray loads of 0.30, 0.35, 0.40 and 0.45 g/cm. On the basis of, correlation and regression analyses performed by using dehydration time (h), drie...

Introduction also be used for multiple restorations! or fixed partial dentures up to four units. However, if the most posterior tooth in the arch is prepared for a fixed partial denture, the patient may close at a decreased vertical dimension of occlusion, which would result in a significant negative occlusal error. Care must be excercised when this type of impression tray is used. Before the i...

This study was designed to measure the sound output of four commonly used brands of forced-air dryers used by dog groomers in the United States. Many dog groomers have questions about the effect of this exposure on their hearing, as well as on the hearing of the dogs that are being groomed. Readings taken from each dryer at 1 meter (the likely distance of the dryer from the groomer and the dog)...

It is the oldest and most common traditional food preservation method known to dry by laying products under sun. However, if product in direct contact with sun light, there a decrease color nutrient values of product. To solve these problems, solar dryers have been developed which can be utilized due indirectly effect In this study, kiwi rings were dried using osmosolar dehydration as combinati...

PURPOSE This study compared the accuracy of an abutment-framework (A-F) taken with open tray impression technique combining cementon crown abutments, a metal framework and resin cement to closed tray and resin-splinted open tray impression techniques for the 3-implant definitive casts. The effect of angulation on the accuracy of these 3 techniques was also evaluated. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thre...

• Methods: Case series data were analyzed from 66 failing periodontal maintenance patients who had exhausted treatment options before using prescription trays with a 1.7% hydrogen peroxide gel once or twice daily for two-and-a-half to five years. Data included pocket probing depths (PPD), bleeding on probing (BOP), smoking status, and compliance with tray usage. Data were collected prior to tra...

In this study, the author attempted to explicate the infuluence of thedifference in the impression methods for the simulation models based on the hypothetical pressure-displaceability and the form of the alveolar ridge on the reproducibility of the measuring models. For this purpose, the reproducibility of the master cast were examined by use of the threedimensional position-reproducing apparat...

Malalignment of the tibial tray in total knee arthroplasty has been linked to several complications including tibial tray subsidence, leading to revision surgery. However, quantitative biomechanical evidence to directly support the mechanism of failure is not available. We developed a model to study tibial tray micromotion and subsidence in vitro under multiaxial physiological loading condition...
