This book was released on 1989 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an effort to reduce the unwanted effects of friction, ion implantation of bracket models was accomplished and tested against the four major orthodontic alloy groups, stainless steel (S.S.), cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr), nickel-titanium (NiTi), and beta-titanium. Stainless steel right-hand cylinders simulated orthodontic brackets. In addition to control samples, the polished faces of these cylinders were implanted with N+, Ti+/N+, N+/C+, N+/Cr+, Ti+, Ti+/C+, and C+. Frictional forces were measured, and both the coefficient of static friction, mu(s), and the coefficient of kinetic (sliding) friction, mu(k), were determined while varying the normal forces from 0.2 to 1kg. The kinetic coefficients of the arch wires against the control S.S. models measured 0.163, 0.143, 0.240, and 0.312, respectively (P

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated Clinical Orthodontics provides an important new resource on the clinical interactions between the practice of orthodontics and other areas of clinical dentistry and medicine. Having at its heart the paradigm of patient-centred care, the book not only integrates the knowledge, skills, and experience of all the disciplines of dentistry and medicine, but also eases the work of orthodontists in arriving at an accurate diagnosis and a comprehensive treatment plan. Presented in a highly visual and practical format, Integrated Clinical Orthodontics uses clinical case presentations to illustrate the rationale and application of the integrated approach to a variety of clinical scenarios. Integrated Clinical Orthodontics covers areas of complexity in clinical orthodontics, specifically the role of the orthodontist as a member of a multidisciplinary team. The book outlines and details the management of congenital orofacial deformities, sleep disorders, esthetic smile creation and temporomandibular joint problems, and additionally and importantly includes specific protocols for effective communication with experts in other specialties.

Download or read book Bio Tribocorrosion in Biomaterials and Medical Implants written by Yu Yan and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-09-30 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During their service life, most biomaterials and medical implants are vulnerable to tribological damage. In addition, the environments in which they are placed are often corrosive. The combination of triobology, corrosion and the biological environment has been named ‘bio-tribocorrosion’. Understanding this complex phenomenon is critical to improving the design and service life of medical implants. This important book reviews recent key research in this area. After an introduction to the topography of bio-tribocorrosion, Part one discusses different types of tribocorrosion including fatigue-corrosion, fretting-corrosion, wear-corrosion and abrasion-corrosion. The book also discusses the prediction of wear in medical devices. Part two looks at biological effects on tribocorrosion processes, including how proteins interact with material surfaces and the evolution of surface changes due to bio-tribocorrosion resulting from biofilms and passive films. Part three reviews the issue of bio-tribocorrosion in clinical practice, including dental applications and joint replacement as well the use of coatings and test methods for bio-tribocorrosion. With its international team of contributors, Bio-tribocorrosion in biomaterials and medical implants is a standard reference for those researching and developing medical devices as well as clinicians in such areas as dentistry and orthopaedic surgery. Reviews recent research in bio-tribocorrosion and its role in improving the design and service life of medical implants Discusses types of bio-tribocorrosion including fatigue and wear corrosion Examines biological effects on bio-tribocorrosion processes including interaction of proteins with metal surfaces
