Aesthetic Correction of Peg Lateral with Resin Composite using Putty Index Technique : A Case Report
Microdontia involving only a single tooth is a rather common condition affecting mostly maxillary lateral incisor. One of the common forms of localised microdontia is that which affects maxillary lateral incisor, a condition that has been called

Unusual Case of Extraction of Maxillary Lateral Incisors and Mandibular Central Incisors [PDF]
Introduction. This article’s purpose is to report a case where maxillary lateral incisors and mandibular central incisors are extracted and a canine substitution was performed as the best therapeutic option in order to obtain symmetry in a malocclusion with an upper lateral incisor with poor prognostic, solve moderate crowding, get enough space for the

Induced Ankylosis of a Primary Molar for Skeletal Anchorage in the Mandible as Alternative to Mini-Implants [PDF]
Background Mesial protraction of mandibular posterior teeth requires increased anchorage to avoid undesired tooth movements. Orthodontic mini-implants have become a popular and successful way to increase skeletal anchorage in such cases.

Nasal irrigation delivery in three post-FESS models from a squeeze-bottle using CFD [PDF]
Purpose: Nasal saline irrigation is highly recommended in patients following functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) to aid the postoperative recovery. Post-FESS patients have significantly altered anatomy leading to markedly different flow dynamics from those found in pre-op or non-diseased airways, resulting in unknown flow dynamics. Methods: This

Multiple Instance Ensembling For Paranasal Anomaly Classification In The Maxillary Sinus [PDF]
Paranasal anomalies are commonly discovered during routine radiological screenings and can present with a wide range of morphological features. This diversity can make it difficult for convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to accurately classify these anomalies, especially when working with limited datasets. Additionally, current approaches to paranasal

Morphological diversity of saber‐tooth upper canines and its functional implications
Abstract Elongated upper canine teeth, commonly known as saber‐teeth, have evolved three times within the sub‐order Feliformia. The species that wielded them flourished throughout the Cenozoic and have historically been separated into two morphological groups: the dirk‐tooths with longer, flatter canines, and the scimitar‐tooths with shorter, serrated ...

Myological and osteological approaches to gape and bite force reconstruction in Smilodon fatalis
Abstract Masticatory gape and bite force are important behavioral and ecological variables. While much has been written about the highly derived masticatory anatomy of Smilodon fatalis, there remains a great deal of debate about their masticatory behaviors.
