this case report describes the clinical application of the coronally advanced flap procedure associated with the subepithelial connective tissue pedicle graft with palatal tunneling for the reconstruction of interproximal papillae. in this modified technique the distal end of the pedicle graft was divided into two parts, creating a bifid, which were then placed around the abutment and sutured o...

BACKGROUND The aim of this retrospective study was to compare the esthetic, periodontal, and functional outcomes of orthodontic space closure versus implant substitution in patients with missing maxillary incisors 5 years after completion of treatment. METHODS The study group consisted of ten patients treated with orthodontic space closure (six males, four females, mean age 19 ± 2.1 years at ...

OBJECTIVE When utilizing a single implant-supported crown to replace a central incisor, understanding the final shape of the implant restoration is an important factor to help achieve a successful esthetic outcome. In today's dentistry, tooth shape is a critical factor when dental implant prostheses are considered in the esthetic zone. The major esthetic goal for this type of restoration is to ...

We often need to refer to adjacent elements (e.g., vertices, edges and faces) in triangle meshes for rendering, mesh simplification and other processes. It is, however, sometimes impossible to prepare the enormous memory needed to represent element connectivity in gigantic triangle meshes. We proposed a memory efficient scheme for referring to adjacent faces around a vertex in non-manifold tria...

Isosceles trapezoids are dissected into three similar triangles and rearranged to form two additional isosceles trapezoids. Moreover, triangle centers, one from each similar triangle, form the vertices of a centric triangle which has special properties. For example, the centroidal triangles are congruent to each other and have an area one-ninth of the area of the trapezoids; whereas, the circum...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of co-annihilator of a subsetin a triangle algebra. It is shown that the co-annihilator of asubset is an interval valued residuated lattice (IVRL)-filter. Also, aspecial set of a triangle algebra is defined and the relationshipbetween this set and co-annihilator of a subset in triangle algebrais considered. Finally, co-annihilators preserving congruencerel...
