One tooth root can only be restored with one type of adhesive in experiment. After the mechanical test, this tooth root cannot be restored with other adhesives. With the help of medical imaging technology, reverse engineering and finite element analysis, a molar model can be reconstructed ...
there should be no ill effects. If adhesives are used excessively to fill voids for an ill-fitting denture, they can be harmful to the underlying soft and hard tissues. Occasionally, in these cases, inflammation of the soft
Though very few people know it, the tongue is a very good measure of the well-being of the body. This is why a medical professional may use the tongue depressor to look in your mouth and tongue during an examination. Common tongue problems Tongue problems may indicate short-term or long-...
Virtually all synthetic adhesives and certain natural adhesives are composed ofpolymers, which are giant molecules, or macromolecules, formed by the linking of thousands of simpler molecules known as monomers. The formation of thepolymer(a chemical reaction known as polymerization) can occur during a“...
Silicone-based Adhesivesgive many years of service life. Like acrylics, silicone can be used against the skin, so it has many medical applications as well as uses in the electrical industry where temperature is a challenge (e.g., jet engines). Silicone adhesives and sealants have a high degr...
aIn view of the different conditions of adhesive layers as they enter service or, in this case, aging treatment, it is not surprising that the cyclic VPSD treatment had a much greater effect on specimens with unmodified adhesive (Type I) than on specimens with modified adhesives (Types II and...
