X-ray verification of the possibility of the mandible articular head restoration: A clinical case

Improvement of the methods of diagnosis and treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction is of prime importance in increasing the efficacy of orthopedic treatment. The aim of the study was to prove the possibility of TMJ structures restoration in the normalization of the lower jaw position during orthopedic treatment. The study confirmed the need to normalize the interalveolar height, to form multiple contacts for the antagonizing lateral teeth that allow to eliminate both joint heads distal displacement and bilaminar zone compression and, consequently, to reduce degenerative changes in TMJ joint

Models of shifts and correlation links of hematological and immunological parameters of patients with chronic generalized periodontitis

The goal of this study is to examine and to evaluate hematological and immunological parameters of patients with chronic generalized periodontitis based on the models of shifts and correlations. At that, the assessment of carried-out modeling and correlations allows to identify the leading parameters of diagnostics and intrasystemic blood parameters and cell-mediated immunit

Photophoresis of topical steroids in the treatment of severe forms of lichen ruber planus of oral mucosa

The objective of the study is to search for new methods of treatment for lichen ruber planus with high efficacy, few complications and side effects, as well as providing a long-term therapeutic effect. The authors used the method of photophoresis (red LED radiation + topical steroid) in the combination treatment of 40 patients with severe forms of lichen ruber planu

Additional visits as a factor determining the psychoemotional status of a dentist and a patient requiring endodontic treatment

The possibility of achieving effective communication that optimizes interpersonal relations between the doctor and the patient along with the formation of manual skills is one of the most important aspects of dental education. The paper presents the results of the survey of 58 second-year resident physicians and 64 dentists with more than 5 years of work experienc

The study of destruction of the compositions restoring the dentition integrity under uniaxial tension

Using vital teeth as supports for non-removable prostheses has a known beneficial effect on the rehabilitation of patients suffering from partial adentia. In this case, dentinal tubules remain exposed after their preparation, which leads to tooth hypersensitivity. At the same time, the effects of chemical and physical agents, as well as bacteria and their metabolic products may promote the development of pulpitis of teeth being a part of orthopedic structur

The results of orthodontic treatment using computer design of structures

The article deals with the use of mathematical background and computer modeling in the process of treatment dental apparatus engineering. Drawing on mathematical calculations, veracity of which is validated by the results of experimental research, there in the clinic it has been used treatment appliance made of elastic polymer with set-up parameter

The impact of some morphological and motor characteristics in short distance running

The knowledge of morphological development and their impact on motor skills in short-distance athletes should be one of the main concerns of athletics coaches, because any scientific research in the field of physical culture and sports is about proving the development and evaluation of anthropological characteristics which are responsible for achieving success in athletics. The purpose of this paper is to confirm the impact of some anthropometric characteristics in the execution of running speeds on short distances, specifically in running at 100 meters to students aged 18 ± 6 years of the Faculty of Physical Education and Sports in Prishtina. The sample of this research has included a total of 60 students aged 18 years of the Faculty of Physical Education and Sports in Prishtina. The measurements were executed during September in the hall of the Faculty, while the 100 meter runs in the stadium "Fadil Vokrri" Prishtina. The only condition that was used during the determination of the sample was: that the students are involved in regular physical education classes (and on the day of the measurement be healthy, without the flu, cold or other symptoms). The variables which are applied in this research have been 8 anthropometric variables and 1 motor-specific variables. The results obtained after their processing indicate that the impact of anthropometric variables is higher in running at 100 meters. Short distance running and long distance running reduces the impact of anthropometric parameters whereas the influence of metabolic factors of energy production is increased. These results were also confirmed using regression analysis, so that groups of predictors of anthropometric characteristics, specific motor skills that statistically significantly influenced each variable of individual criteria. The world records below the 10-second limit, in the 100 m, near the 9-meter limit, show not only the high level of sports, but also the strong impact on the growth, especially of strength indicators, speed-strength, explosive force, as main and applied motor skills in sports and athlete’s everyday life
