Observation Of Bone Formation In The Mandibular Symphysis Following Surgical Separation And Slow Mechanical Expansion In A Baboon, Robert J. Homer

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Mechanical expansion of the maxilla, at the midline suture, is a widely accepted orthodontic procedure used to gain arch width in certain types of maxillary deficient arches.

In animal research on the mandible, techniques using surgical separation at the symphysis with immediate expansion up to 12 mm, fixation with a metal splint, and autogenous bone transplanted into the expanded area, have been reported to be successful.

To date, no experiment utilizing slow mechanical expansion of the mandible at the symphysis has been reported.

In this pilot study, the mandible of a female baboon was surgically separated A-P at the symphysis. …

Marginal Periodontium Changes In The Monkey (Macaca Nemestrina) Following Incisor Repositioning From A Mechanically Positioned Labioversion, Gary Engelking

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The anterior teeth of five adult pigtail monkeys were moved lingually to correct a previously induced labioversion. These teeth were retained in their more normal arch positions for five months, after which clinical and histologic measurements were made of the periodontium. The untreated cuspids served as controls. Measurements were made to record changes in the gingival margin, the mucogingival junction, the width of keratinized gingiva and the marginal bone level relative to a fixed point on the tooth crowns. Oxytetracycline was administered three times to label areas of osteogenesis in the periodontium.

The incisors were retracted a mean distance of …

Evaluation Of A Precision Filing Test For Predicting Dental Technic Performance, Douglass Roberts

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

A precision filing test involving the reduction of a steel cylinder to a perfect cube with the use of a hand file and bench vise was devised as a diagnostic tool for the early detection of freshman students having technic difficulties. The test was administered to 188 freshman dental students in three classes at Loma Linda University, School of Dentistry. Subjective and objective scores were then statistically compared with subsequent technic and clinic grades of the students. The simple linear correlations between the predictor test variable and criterion grades were statistically significant for one class and for the combined classes …

The Uses Of Pins For Retention In Restorative Dentistry : An Independent Learning Program, Ali M. Asad

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Although pins have been used since the 1800's for retention of dental restorations, their widespread use had been limited because supporting techniques such as impression, die materials, better handpieces and drills have only been perfected in the last two decades.

The pin technique allows for greater retention of restorative materials which otherwise might require considerable reduction of sound tooth substance; this is particularly paramount when insufficient coronal tooth structure is present. Also, the placing of pins in divergent directions gives excellent retention. Pin-retained castings reduce the need for deep cavity preparation in some cases.

Pins are useful in stabilizing hypermobile …

A Method Of Analyzing Mandibular Movement, Richard B. Mccoy

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Mandibular movement is considered to be a fundamental factor in the study, analysis, and treatment of occlusion. For many years, dentists have realized that dental health depends upon the compatibility of mandibular movements and occlusion. This realization has led to the development of new methods and techniques for recording accurately and scientifically the movements of the mandible. In order for this data to be of scientific value, it must be stored in a usable form which is easily available for analysis.

The purpose of this research project was to develop a procedure for storing and recalling mandibular-movement information. Before such …

Pins In A Composite : Their Effects On The Strength Of The Material, Milton Latoni-Camarena

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The influence of pins on the compression and tensile strength of a composite resin was measured.

Compression strength was measured in cylindrical samples 8 mm long and 4 mm in diameter, using different size threaded stainless steel pins. The tensile strength was determined by compression along the diameter of cylindrical samples containing different sizes and orientations of threaded stainless steel pins.

The conventional dumbbell tensile strength was measured by pulling the mounted specimens in the direction of their long axis, using non-threaded pins.

These tests demonstrated that the compressive strength of the composite was increased 10 percent when the large …

Intentional Implantation Of Pins In The Dental Pulp Under Clinical Conditions, George C. Abraham

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

This research project was directed toward the study of the histological response of human teeth to the intentional implantation of threaded stainless steel gold-plated pins.

Many different types of pins are currently used in several aspects of restorative and periodontal dentistry. In some cases there may be unintentional perforation of the dental pulp. In other cases it may be advantageous to purposely perforate the pulp for added retention.

The purpose of this research is to determine the reaction, possibilities and prognosis of such a technique under clinical conditions.

The teeth used for experimental and control groups were those recommended for …

Measurement Of The Force Of The External Pterygoid Muscles, Hajime Suya

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Much research has been done to determine closure forces of patients. This study was designed to determine the effect of certain variables on the maximum protrusive force of patients.

Custom mandibular clutches were fabricated out of blue tray resin for each patient. A clutch adaptor was fastened to the clutch to secure the weight testing apparatus. Maximum protrusive forces were recorded for each patient when the force paralleled the Frankfurt line and the angle of the eminence. This testing was accomplished with and without the use of a maxillary clutch, designed to allow the closure muscles to brace the mandibular …
