BACKGROUND Root resorption is one of the most common and undesirable sequelea of orthodontic treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the amount of root resorption in permanent incisors during 3 month active period of fixed orthodontic appliance therapy using periapical radiographs. METHODS Periapical radiographs of a total of 138 permanent teeth (n = 138, mandibular n1 = 52, maxillar...

the water deficiency is one of the serious problems in the arid zones. in order to investigate the effect of cycocel on different growth aspects of two olive cultivars (mary and mission), a greenhouse experiment was conducted using three factors of: cycocel at three levels (0, 500 and 1000 mg l-1), irrigation of three levels (irrigated at 5, 10 and 15 days intervals) and tow olive cultivars (ma...

the effects of different grazing intensities on the above and underground biomass of twospecies festucaovina l. and alopecurustextilisboiss. in the north sabalan rangelands (in shabil) were investigated. sampling on the light, medium and heavy grazing intensities in the flowering stage (the second half of june 2013) were performed. initially, from a 90-meter transects perpendicular to the slope...

INTRODUCTION One of the common findings encountered by the clinician at the end of orthodontic treatment is the apical root resorption. Root resorption occurs to various degrees. A severe form of root resorption is characterized by shortening of root for more than 4 mm or more than one-third of the total tooth length. A low incidence rate of resorption is observed based on radiographic findings...

Environmental stress, particularly drought stress can play an important role in reducing plant growth especially during the germination stage in arid and semi-arid regions in Iran. For cultivation of medicinal plants in arid and semi-arid areas, the assessment of their tolerance is very important. In this research, in order to evaluate the effects of salicylic acid pretreatment on enhancement o...

Aim The objective of this study was to determine a formula for estimating the liveweight in West African donkeys. Materials and Methods Liveweight and a total of 6 body measurements were carried out on 1352 donkeys from Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, and Senegal. The correlations between liveweight and body measurements were determined, and the most correlated body measurements with liveweight we...

AIM The aim of this study was to investigate the quality of endodontic and coronal restorations and the association with periapical status in a Danish population. METHODOLOGY A total of 614 randomly selected individuals (20-60+ years of age) from Aarhus County had a full-mouth radiographic examination. The quality of endodontic and coronal restorations and the periapical status of endodontica...

Tuberose is one of the most important aromatic cut flower among ornamental plants that its growth and quality is influenced by the type and percentage of mineral compounds in the substrate. This study was carried out on the basis of a randomized complete design to explore the impact of feldspar, talc, dolomite and tuff minerals at the rate of 10, 20 and 40% incorporated with garden soil and man...
