The Journal of Indian Prosthodontic Society, 2016 Background: Loss of teeth affects the individual's health. Many factors determine the need to wear a removable dental prosthesis. Due to nature of design, age and lack of awareness, prosthesis often are neglected to maintain in an aseptic condition ...

Journal of Periodontology, Volume 93, Issue 12, Page 1763-1770, December 2022., 2022 Abstract A biologic is a therapeutic agent with biological activity that is administered to achieve an enhanced regenerative or reparative effect. The use of biologics has progressively become a core component of contemporary periodontal practice. However, some questions remain about their safety, indications, and effectiveness in specific clinical ...

Design of EMG-driven Musculoskeletal Model for Volitional Control of a Robotic Ankle Prosthesis [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Existing robotic lower-limb prostheses use autonomous control to address cyclic, locomotive tasks, but they are inadequate to operate the prosthesis for daily activities that are non-cyclic and unpredictable. To address this challenge, this study aims to design a novel electromyography (EMG)-driven musculoskeletal model for volitional control of a ...

Semantic decomposition Network with Contrastive and Structural Constraints for Dental Plaque Segmentation [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Segmenting dental plaque from images of medical reagent staining provides valuable information for diagnosis and the determination of follow-up treatment plan. However, accurate dental plaque segmentation is a challenging task that requires identifying teeth and dental plaque subjected to semantic-blur regions (i.e., confused boundaries in border ...

Numerical simulation of the stress-strain state of the dental system [PDF]
, 2015 We present mathematical models, computational algorithms and software, which can be used for prediction of results of prosthetic treatment. More interest issue is biomechanics of the periodontal complex because any prosthesis is accompanied by a risk of overloading the supporting elements.

Integrated and Lightweight Design of Electro-hydraulic Ankle Prosthesis [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 For lower limb amputees, an active ankle joint prosthesis can provide basic mobility functions. This study focuses on an ankle joint prosthesis system based on the principle of electric-hydraulic actuation. By analyzing the characteristics of human gait cycles and the mechanics of ankle joint movement, a lightweight and integrated ankle joint ...

Development of a computer-aided design software for dental splint in orthognathic surgery [PDF]
Sci. Rep. 6, 38867 (2016), 2017 In the orthognathic surgery, dental splints are important and necessary to help the surgeon reposition the maxilla or mandible. However, the traditional methods of manual design of dental splints are difficult and time-consuming. The research on computer-aided design software for dental splints is rarely reported.
