KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE Facial Trauma is common. The emergency physician should conduct a thorough examination of the oral tissues. A laceration in the palate can be easily missed and should be elicited. Failure to identify a split palate can result in severe dentofacial deformity.

This study applies recent advances in 3D virtual imaging for application in the prediction planning of dentofacial deformities. Stereo-photogrammetry has been used to create virtual and physical models, which are creatively combined in planning the surgical correction of anterior open bite. The application of these novel methods is demonstrated through the surgical correction of a case.

In this paper, a new online robot motion planner is developed for systematically exploring unknown environ¬ments by intelligent mobile robots in real-time applications. The algorithm takes advantage of sensory data to find an obstacle-free start-to-goal path. It does so by online calculation of the Generalized Voronoi Graph (GVG) of the free space, and utilizing a combination of depth-first an...

In this paper we present a method for systematically defining the process architecture of any organization. We begin by presenting a detailed interpretation of the upper levels of Zachman’s framework, providing an answer to the cell formed by the intersection of the perspective of the Planner (row 1) and the dimension of Function (column 2). Our method consists of four steps: capturing the orga...

The kinesiometric and electromyographic findings from the evaluation of mandibular resting posture in 30 individuals with diverse vertical dentofacial morphology can be summarized as follows: 1. The RVD and TESP of the mandible are two distinctly different biologically dynamic neuromuscular entities. They differ with respect to their spatial position in that the RVD is 2.6 mm closer to centric ...

The relationship between nasal obstruction and craniofacial growth is unclear. The literature indicates that upper-airway compromise produces chronic mouth breathing, especially in the dolichocephalic (narrow-faced) child. It has been shown that a greater tendency exists toward the skeletal pattern associated with long face syndrome in dolichocephalic head types. Therefore, it becomes difficult...

Monetary policy rule is an approach to avoid time inconsistency problem as regarded by new classical economist to choose a time plan for policy making in order to maximize households’ well-being. The foundation of time inconsistency problem is not coincidence of expectations as an ex-ante variable, which is expected variable, with actual variable as an ex-post variable. Expectations in Finn K...

OBJECTIVE To assess the pattern of dentofacial injuries in commercial motorcycle accidents among riders and passengers in Cameroon. METHODS This was a hospital based study conducted in 6 out of 10 regional capitals in the months of December 2011 to September 2012. Analyzed information included age, gender, residence, role on the motorcycle (rider or passenger), type, pattern and month of inju...
