Download or read book Surface Modification of Orthodontic Bracket Models Via Ion Implantation written by Stephen Walter Andrews and published by . 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

Download or read book Integrated Clinical Orthodontics written by Vinod Krishnan and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-01-30 with total page 530 pages. 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 Surface Engineering and Technology for Biomedical Implants written by Yoshiki Oshida and published by Momentum Press. This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book synthesizes a wide range of interdisciplinary literature to provide the state-of-the art of biomedical implants. It discusses materials and explains the three basic requirements for implant success from a surface engineering perspective: biological compatibility, biomechanical compatibility, morphological compatibility. Biomedical, mechanical, and materials engineers will find this book indispensable for understanding proper treatment of implant surfaces in order to achieve clinical success. Highlights include: • Coverage of surface engineering of polymer, metallic, ceramic and composite implant materials; • Coverage of chemical, mechanical, physical, thermal, and combined surface modification technologies; • Explanations of interfacial reaction between vital tissue and non-vital implant surface; and • Methodologies and technologies for modification of surface layer/zone to promote the osteo-integration, the ultimate success for biomedical implants in both dental and medical practice.
Download or read book Surface Modification of Titanium Orthodontic Implants written by Abdulqadir Rampurawala and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Orthodontic miniscrews have had a considerable impact on modern orthodontic treatment, not only by providing a new source of anchors for anchorage-demanding cases, but also for force management and control. Whilst miniscrews need to be mechanically stable during treatment to provide sufficient anchorage and predictable force control, as temporary anchorage devices they need also be easy to remove after orthodontic treatment. These requirements differentiate orthodontic miniscrews from dental implants - which once placed, are not to be removed - and dictate the approach as to how their clinical performance can be optimized. Over the past decade, various titanium surface modifications and improvements in implant surface topography have shown to enhance osseointegration of endosseous dental implants. Some of these techniques have helped provide a similar enhancement of the biomechanical potential of orthodontic miniscrews as well. In this perspective, we present a brief discussion on all such reported techniques followed by a detailed account of the most recently proposed ultraviolet photofunctionalization technique - a novel chair-side surface modification method.
