Lip incompetence and myofunctional therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Lip incompetence, which is a state in which the upper and lower lips are constantly apart, is thought to induce mouth breathing that may result in the development of gingivitis and periodontal disease. In the orthodontic field, lip incompetence has major

Esthetic lip repositioning: A cosmetic approach for correction of gummy smile – A case series

open access: yesJournal of Indian Society of Periodontology, 2019
Gummy smile has been a prevalent esthetic disorder commonly affecting younger individuals due to various causes such as skeletal, dento-alveolar, or soft-tissue origin.

A Study on Lip Localization Techniques used for Lip reading from a Video [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
In this paper some of the different techniques used to localize the lips from the face are discussed and compared along with its processing steps. Lip localization is the basic step needed to read the lips for extracting visual information from the video input. The techniques could be applied on asymmetric lips and also on the mouth with visible teeth,

Intraoral Drug Delivery: Bridging the Gap Between Academic Research and Industrial Innovations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Intraoral drug delivery offers a promising route for systemic and localized therapies, yet challenges such as enzymatic degradation, limited permeability, and microbial interactions hinder efficacy. This figure highlights innovative strategies—mucoadhesive materials, enzyme inhibitors, and permeation enhancers—to overcome these barriers.

Lower lip pits with sinus tracts in Van der Woude syndrome: a case report and review of the literature

open access: yesArchives of Plastic Surgery, 2022
In Van der Woude syndrome (VWS), a rare congenital disease, lower lip pits (LLPs) can cause an aesthetically significant deformity. Surgical treatment of LLPs is necessary if they cause recurrent inflammation or aesthetic problems.

Weakly compact composition operators on spaces of Lipschitz functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Let $X$ be a pointed compact metric space. Assuming that $\mathrm{lip}_0(X)$ has the uniform separation property, we prove that every weakly compact composition operator on spaces of Lipschitz functions $\mathrm{Lip}_0(X)$ and $\mathrm{lip}_0(X)$ is ...

Dimension and dynamical entropy for metrized C*-algebras

open access: yes, 2002
We introduce notions of dimension and dynamical entropy for unital C*-algebras ``metrized'' by means of c-Lip-norms, which are complex-scalar versions of the Lip-norms constitutive of Rieffel's compact quantum metric spaces.

Boosting Polysulfide Conversion on Fe‐Doped Nickel Diselenide Toward Robust Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work reports an advanced functional material based on Fe‐doped nickel diselenides toward robust lithium–sulfur batteries, demonstrating that Fe‐rich cores and surface doping enhance the density of states at the Fermi level and introduce unpaired electrons for the improvement of the LiPS adsorption and catalytic conversion. Abstract Sulfur offers a

Mandible Cleft: Report of a Case and Review of the Literature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Median cleft of the lower lip and associated structures is a relatively rare condition. We report the case of a patient with mandibular cleft. Unlike other reported cases of similar disorders, there was no cleft of the lower lip. The literature on median

Heterostructured Sn:SnO2 Nanodots for High‐Performance Li–S Batteries with Kinetics‐Enhanced Cathode and Dendrite‐Free Anode

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Heterostructured Sn:SnO2 nanodots decorated on reduced graphene oxide can simultaneously enhance conversion kinetics and inhibit dendrite growth, enabling stable lithium–sulfur batteries. Abstract The practical application of lithium–sulfur batteries is limited by polysulfide shuttling and sluggish reaction kinetics at the cathode, as well as ...
