Nonsurgical treatment of skeletal anterior open bite in adult patients: Posterior build-ups.
2016
ABSTRACT Objective: To (1) evaluate the efficacy of build-ups in the correction of anterior open bite in adults, (2) evaluate their efficacy in producing molar intrusion, (3) analyze skeletal and dental changes, and (4) assess the long-term stability. Materials and Methods: The sample consisted of 93 lateral cephalograms from 31 patients with skeletal and dental anterior open bite. The patients had received orthodontic treatment consisting of bonded resin blocks on the maxillary molars combined with Tip-Edge Plus bracket appliances. Cephalometric measurements were performed on radiographs taken before treatment (T1), after treatment (T2), and after a retention period (T3), which were analyz…
Nonsurgical treatment of an adult with skeletal Class III malocclusion, anterior crossbite, and an impacted canine
2021
Class III malocclusion presents some complexity in terms of diagnosis and treatment and affects not only the jaws but the whole craniofacial complex. Besides, functional forward displacement of the mandible may be diagnosed in a patient presenting Class III malocclusion, as the 2 entities are not incompatible or mutually exclusive. This case report describes the multidisciplinary, nonsurgical, orthodontic treatment of an adult patient with a skeletal Class III malocclusion, anterior crossbite, and a palatally impacted canine, treated with fixed appliances and skeletal anchorage. To upright the mandibular molars, distalize the whole mandibular arch, and avoid excessive inclination of maxilla…
Miniscrew mechanics for molar distalization and incisor intrusion in a patient with a Class II brachyfacial pattern and gummy smile
2020
A gummy smile is one of the most problematic characteristics in patients with a Class II Division 2 malocclusion, and the correction of vertical position and incisor torque is often challenging for the orthodontist. This case report describes the orthodontic treatment of a 31-year-old woman, assisted by miniscrew mechanics for maxillary arch distalization and correction of a gummy smile with a brachyfacial pattern. Two different mechanics were used. Miniscrews were placed in both maxillary tuberosities, and the maxillary arch was successfully distalized, correcting the Class II relationship. Interradicular miniscrews were placed for maxillary and mandibular incisor intrusion to correct the …

Synthesis, NMR spectral and single crystal X-ray structural studies on Ni(II) dithiocarbamates. Fabrication of nickel sulfide nanospheres by the solv…
2014
Abstract Three dithiocarbamatonickel(II) complexes, [Ni(bzbudtc)2] (1), [Ni(bzbudtc)(PPh3)(NCS)] (2) and [Ni(bzbudtc)(PPh3)(CN)] (3) (where, bzbudtc = the N-benzyl-N-butyldithiocarbamato anion and PPh3 = triphenylphosphine), were prepared. All three complexes were analyzed by UV–Vis, IR and NMR (1H, 13C and 31P) spectra. The 13C NMR spectra of complexes 1–3 show the most crucial thioureide signal at around 200 ppm. A significant deshielding observed for the 31P signals in 2 and 3 reveals the effective bonding of phosphorus to the metal center. Single crystal X-ray analysis of crystals of 1–3 show that all the described complexes exhibit a distorted square planar coordination geometry in the…

Les inhibiteurs du goût sucré : perspectives thérapeutiques
2015
This review summarizes and discusses the current knowledge concerning the physiological role of the sweet taste receptor (T1R2/T1R3) and the potential therapeutic perspectives concerning its inhibition. The functional expression of the sweet taste receptor has also been described in many extra-oral tissues where it has been proposed that the receptor participated in the regulation of metabolic processes. The receptor has been highlighted in various organs such as the intestine, pancreas, bladder, brain, and more recently in the bone and adipose tissue. In the intestine, T1R2/T1R3 receptor has been shown to be involved in the detection of luminal glucose, cytokine release of certain hormones…
Coherent control of stimulated emission inside one-dimensional Photonic Crystals
2005
In this paper, the quasinormal mode (QNM) theory is applied to discuss the quantum problem of an atom embedded inside a one-dimensional (1D) photonic band gap (PBG) cavity pumped by two counterpropagating laser beams. The e.m. field is quantized in terms of the QNMs in the 1D PBG and the atom modeled as a two-level system is assumed to be weakly coupled to just one of the QNMs. The main result of the paper is that the decay time depends on the position of the dipole inside the cavity, and can be controlled by the phase difference of the two laser beams. © 2005 The American Physical Society
Paper vs. Pixel: Can We Use a Pen-and-Paper Method to Measure Athletes' Implicit Doping Attitude?
2017
Doping attitude is an individual’s subjective evaluation (e.g., good or bad, useful or useless) toward the use of prohibited performance-enhancing substances or methods in sports. Research on doping attitude has traditionally relied on self-report questionnaire methods to measure the construct (Ntoumanis et al., 2014; Chan et al., 2015). However, as doping in sport is illegal (World AntiDoping Agency, 2015) and perceived as socially unacceptable, athletes who hold positive attitudes toward doping are less likely to reveal them to others. As a result explicit measures of doping attitude are susceptible to potential bias as athletes may respond in a socially desirable fashion (Petróczi and Ai…
