Treating Dentin Hypersensitivity [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background. Methods used by dental practitioners to diagnose and treat dentin hypersensitivity are not well documented. The authors conducted a survey of dentists in the Northwest Practice-based REsearch Collaborative in Evidence-based DENTistry (PRECEDENT) to ascertain the treatment methods they used. Methods.

Electromechanical Imaging of Biological Systems with Sub-10 nm Resolution [PDF]
Electromechanical imaging of tooth dentin and enamel has been performed with sub-10 nm resolution using piezoresponse force microscopy. Characteristic piezoelectric domain size and local protein fiber ordering in dentin have been determined. The shape of a single collagen fibril in enamel is visualized in real space and local hysteresis loops are ...

Hypersensitivity to Perturbations in the Quantum Baker's Map [PDF]
We analyze a randomly perturbed quantum version of the baker's transformation, a prototype of an area-conserving chaotic map. By numerically simulating the perturbed evolution, we estimate the information needed to follow a perturbed Hilbert-space vector in time. We find that the Landauer erasure cost associated with this information grows very rapidly

Hypersensitivity and chaos signatures in the quantum baker's maps [PDF]
Classical chaotic systems are distinguished by their sensitive dependence on initial conditions. The absence of this property in quantum systems has lead to a number of proposals for perturbation-based characterizations of quantum chaos, including linear growth of entropy, exponential decay of fidelity, and hypersensitivity to perturbation.

Research progress in laser treatment of dentin hypersensitivity
Dentin hypersensitivity is mainly associated with abrasion, wear, acid etching, cracking, wedge⁃shaped defects, enamel hypoplasia, caries, a lack of neck enamel, and cementum coverage accompanied by gingival recession, resulting in direct exposure of ...

Though dentin hypersensitivity (DHS) is one of the most common complaints from patients in dental clinics, there are no universally accepted guidelines for differential diagnosis as well as selection of reliable treatment modalities for this condition ...

OBJECTIVE Dentin hypersensitivity (DH) is characterized by a short, sharp pain in response to a thermal or tactile stimulus. The application of desensitizing agents such as GLUMA and laser is a non-invasive and safe approach to decrease sensitivity.

Viscoelastic Fracture of Biological Composites [PDF]
Soft constituent materials endow biological composites, such as bone, dentin and nacre, with viscoelastic properties that may play an important role in their remarkable fracture resistance. In this paper we calculate the scaling properties of the quasi-static energy release rate and the viscoelastic contribution to the fracture energy of various ...

In situ biomimetic materials for dentin repair
This review primarily discusses the role and clinical application of key biomimetic materials for in situ dentin repair, providing a feasible foundation for future material and performance optimization in situ dentin regeneration. Abstract Dental defects, ranking among the most prevalent diseases globally, pose a serious threat to human health, with ...
