Behçet's disease is a multisystemic inflammatory disease with histological evidence for vasculitis and characterized by mucocutaneous, ocular, articular, vascular, intestinal, pulmonary, renal and neurologic involvement. According to the diagnostic criteria formed by the International Study Group, recurrent oral ulceration is a prerequisite, with two more typical symptoms or signs. It is a disease of young adults with a more severe course in male subjects. Its prevalence is high in the Mediterranean basin, Turkey, Japan and those ethnic groups along the old Silk Route and has been known to be associated with HLA-B5 and HLA-B11. Although the pathogenesis of the disease …

Silica Coating Methods For Resin-To-Metal Bonding, W. Iramaneerat, R. Panichuttra
Chulalongkorn University Dental Journal
In Dentistry, bonding between resin cement and metal alloy plays an important role in many clinical applications. From several studies, the failures at resin-metal interface are the most frequently reported. Numerous methods are available for bonding resin to alloy. The sillica coating methods have been developed to improve chemo - mechanical retention. Three different silica coating methods were described. The original Silicoater system is a pyrolytic deposition of an intermediate SiOx layer to the alloy surface. The Rocatec system is a tribochemical silica coating process, including two sandblasting steps to the alloy surface. The Silicoater MD system is a thermal …
