    The flexibility growth in the work process represents an objective of the UE, which must be achieved at national as well as regional level, in order to integrate in European Information Society. The information Society implies the modification of the work process because more and more workers are using their PC as the main instrument of their activity and more and more work processes use data transfers through the computer networks.computer networks, telework, digital economy

    The clinical reality of the total edentation from the point of view of the impact on the general condition of the patient, with extremely serious disturbances on the body pattern, correlated with the variety of clinical situations, always impregnated by the current social aspects, are only a few elements that advocate optimizing the total prosthesis structure by different reinforcement methods. The aim of the study is the practical materialization of the possibilities of optimization of the parameters of totally removable prostheses by associating the types of acrylate with the method of reinforcement with polyethylene fibers and metal nets. Material and method :A total of 12 specimens were made in the form of thin rectangular plates with a longitudinal dimension of 40 mm, a width of about 20 mm, having a thickness ranging from 1.8 to 2.5.Biomechanical tests were done on a HEKERT 50 machine (on a 10 kN scale) and on a Textenser test machine (500N maximum force).The test specimens have combined the different types of acrylate used in dental practice by associating it with various forms of reinforcement, represented by metal nets, respectively polyethylene fibers. Results and discussions: After the examination of the traction patterns of the traction specimens, the following aspects were noted: Unarmed materials showed cross-sectional sections, slightly corrugated with respect to the direction of force. The armed (asymmetric) materials yielded to areas without reinforcement (cracks usually starting from the hole made at the gripping ends). The cracks produced in the reinforcing areas had the following directions: transverse to the reinforcing fibers: I (acrylate and randomly arranged polyethylene fibers), II (acrylate, longitudinally disposed polyethylene fibers), III (acrylate, metal mesh). Conclusions: In the optimization of the therapeutic solutions excellent results are obtained in case of reinforcement with polyethylene fibers longitudinally disposed. It is known that the clinical particularity dictates the final design of the total prosthesis, so in the case of patients with muscular hypertonia, the optimal therapeutic solution remains the reinforcement with polyethylene fibers due to the very good adherence of the polyethylene fibers to the acrylate followed by the metal mesh reinforcement

    Temperature Induced Gelation and Antimicrobial Properties of Pluronic F127 Based Systems

    Different formulations containing Pluronic F127 and polysaccharides (chitosan, sodium alginate, gellan gum, and κ-carrageenan) were investigated as potential injectable gels that behave as free-flowing liquid with reduced viscosity at low temperatures and displayed solid-like properties at 37 °C. In addition, ZnO nanoparticles, lysozyme, or curcumin were added for testing the antimicrobial properties of the thermal-sensitive gels. Rheological investigations evidenced small changes in transition temperature and kinetics of gelation at 37 °C in presence of polysaccharides. However, the gel formation is very delayed in the presence of curcumin. The antimicrobial properties of Pluronic F127 gels are very modest even by adding chitosan, lysozyme, or ZnO nanoparticles. A remarkable enhancement of antimicrobial activity was observed in the presence of curcumin. Chitosan addition to Pluronic/curcumin systems improves their viscoelasticity, antimicrobial activity, and stability in time. The balance between viscoelastic and antimicrobial characteristics needs to be considered in the formulation of Pluronic F127 gels suitable for biomedical and pharmaceutical applications

    UPDATES IN RELATION BETWEEN ORAL HEALTH AND PHYSIOLOGICAL CHANGES IN PREGNANCY

    Speaking about pregnancy we can say that include physiologic changes mediated by female sex hormones with important effects even on healthy women. Physiologic changes during pregnancy can exacerbate already existing oral pathologic conditions, such as gingivitis, periodontitis, salivary and caries lesions. Aim This paper aims to illustrate recent informations about physiologic changes during normal gestation and also the management of dental treatment in women with normal pregnancy and in women at risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes. Materials and methods We addreddes some queries to the electronic databases including clinical trials in PubMed and Thomson ISI – Web Of Science, published in English in the last five years using key words: „hematological, respiratory, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular changes, pregnancy, dental caries, gingivitis, dental management”. From the collected materials, we have conceived a summary of the data about the physiologic changes during pregnancy wich can exacerbate already existing oral pathologic conditions, such as gingivitis, periodontitis, salivary and caries lesions. Results Oral infections during pregnancy may be associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. Prenatal care is an essential part of a successful pregnancy and oral health assessment must be part of prenatal care. Changes produced by pregnancy present a number of unique management problems in dental treatment. Conclusion The best approach to avoid pregnancy complications and adverse pregnancy outcomes is to apply preventive strategies. One of the important direction in managing dental care for the pregnant woman is to promote a healthy oral environment free of inflammation and infection. All the changes in gingival tissues during pregnancy are associated with an exacerbated clinical inflammatory response. Immune adaptations that occur during pregnancy may further facilitate infections of oral tissues

    STUDY ON ELEVATION OF PARTIALLY REMOVABLE PROSTHESES IN SYSTEMIC CONTEXT IN GERIATRIC PATIENTS

    The quality of life is in to the close relationship with maintenance of oral health, part of general health which is affected or which influence, having in the end, a great impact on mental condition and integration. The aim of our study was to establish the main criteria for the choice of partially movable prostheses in geriatric patients in a systemic context. Material and method.The study was conducted on a group of 60 geriatric patients diagnosed with various forms of general pathology corroborated with various edentational forms presented on the basis of the Clinic of , Iasi. Education of the Faculty of Dental MedicineAll patients underwent a complex clinical examination , supported by paraclinical assessments. which allowed the establishment of a biological balance sheet.Results and discussions Following the subjective clinical examination (anamnesis and questionnaire), we identified 34% of cases with diabetes, 36% with cardiovascular pathology, 9% with respiratory pathology (COPD and Asthma), 10 % of cases with diabetes associated with HTA, 1 1% cases of digestive pathology (chronic gastritis, hepato-biliary pathology). Conclusions:The flexible dentures observe these criteria better than those of conventional acrylate. The implied patients prefer flexible acrylate at a rate of 100
