Background: Denture fracture is one of the most common problems encountered by the patients and prosthodontists. The objective of present study was to evaluate the transverse strength of nylon denture base resin repaired by using conventional heat polymerized, autopolymerized and visible light cure {VLC} resins, surface treatment that used for repair and adjustment of insufficient nylon denture bases and in case of addition of artificial teeth. As these corrective procedures are common chair side procedures in dental clinic. Materials and methods: One hundred twenty nylon specimens were prepared by using metal patterns with dimension of (65x10x2.5 mm) length, width, and thickness respectively for transverse strength test while for tensile bond strength a dumbbell-shaped with measurement (65x12.5x25mm) length, width, and thickness respectively were flasked with stone. The nylon specimens were molded by reflasked with dental stone that used as an index for these specimens in the repair procedure and repaired with 45 degree bevel joint by using metal holding device. The two parts of nylon specimen to be repaired were realigned in its repair index and adhere with special adhesive material to stabilize the combination during repair procedure. The dough of heat and cold cure resin was packed into the joint and then cured. The specimen repaired with cold cure resin was placed in the Ivomat containing water at (40°C) and pressure (30IB/inch²) for 15 minutes. The specimen repaired with {VLC} was placed in the light cure unit for 4 minutes following manufacturer’s instruction. The fractured nylon specimens were divided according to the type of repaired materials into (40) specimens received heat cure acrylic and the (40) specimens received cold cure acrylic and the other 40 specimens received {VLCR}. Each 40 specimens were subdivided according to the type of surface treatment received into 20 specimens were treated with coarse stone bur (control), 20 specimens were treated with combination of coarse stone bur and monomer of the heat cure acrylic. After that the specimens were subjected to transverse {Tr} and tensile bond {TB} strength tests. For each test 10 specimens. Results and conclusions: This study showed that specimens treated with combination of coarse stone bur and monomer of the acrylic (heat, cold or VL cure) had the highest transverse and tensile strength values, followed by the specimens treated with coarse stone bur. The results showed that the specimens repaired with heat cure acrylic had transverse and tensile strength values higher than the specimens repaired with cold and VL cure acrylic when compared between subgroups of heat, cold and VL cure acrylic that received the same treatments.
Abstract:
The research aims to identify how to audit potential liabilities and contingent liabilities in light of the pandemic and its reflection on the auditor's report. The research problem is represented by the complexity of the process of checking potential liabilities and contingent liabilities in insurance companies, which was negatively reflected in the auditor's neutral technical opinion. The researchers hypothesize that auditing potential liabilities and contingent liabilities in light of the Corona pandemic is positively reflected in the auditor's report. The research concludes that the process of checking potential liabilities and contingent liabilities is

Contingent liabilities represent commitments based on the occurrence of one or more events in the future to confirm the value due, the party entitled to it, the maturity date, or to confirm the existence of the obligation itself, and therefore they should not be recognized as a contingent liability i

This study aimed to evaluate the ability of hesperidin, a flavonoid found in citrus fruits, in inhibiting lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced inflammation, which induced lethal toxicity in vivo, and to evaluate its importance as an antitumor agent in breast cancer. The in vivo experiments revealed the protective effects of hesperidin against the negative LPS effects on the liver and spleen of male mice. (2) Methods: In the liver, the antioxidant activity was measured by estimating the concentration of glutathione (GSH) and catalase (CAT), whereas in spleen, the concentration of cytokines including IL-33 and TNF-α was measured. The in vitro expe

This is reflected fallout on water security and subsequently on national and food security, while the issue of using water resources is development top priority in different countries in the world because of the importance of water effect on the security of indivi

For many years, the ration card was an essential source of food supplies to Iraqis, especially under the economic siege of the nineties, But after the events of 2003 and the passage of Iraq's political and economic changes required radical reforms in the ration card system according to the recipes of the International Monetary Fund. It was evident from the estimation of the demand function that the price did not have the greatest impact on this type of goods because the ration card items are subsidized by the government. There is also a

However, in order to pave the way for the proposal of a truly efficient technique, there is a need to understand the shortcomings and strengths of various aspects of heat transfer techniques. This review aims to systematically identify these characteristics two of the most popular passive heat transfer techniques: nanofluids and helically coiled tubes. The review indicated that nanoparticles improve thermal conductivity of base fluid and that the nanoparticle size, as well as the concentrations of the nanoparticles plays a major role in the effectiveness of the nanofluids.
