  3. Dental aerosol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_aerosol

    Dental aerosol from a dental hand piece. A dental aerosol is an aerosol that is produced from dental instrument, dental handpieces, three-way syringes, and other high-speed instruments. These aerosols may remain suspended in the clinical environment. [1] Dental aerosols can pose risks to the clinician, staff, and other patients

  4. List of atmospheric dispersion models - Wikipedia

    It can handle neutral and denser-than-air gases or aerosols from ground-level or elevated sources. The model accommodates building and terrain effects, evaporation of volatile liquid spill pools, and combustion or explosion of flammable gas-air mixtures (including the impact of heat and pressure waves caused by a fire or explosion).

    They bend obliquely near the cervical region. They curve occlusally near the cuspal regions or the incisal regions. Produced during the second stage of enamel calcification, also known as the maturation stage, ameloblasts produce matrix and enamel at the rate of 4 micrometers per day; however every fourth day there is a change in development ...

  6. Height of curvature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Height_of_curvature

    In the posterior teeth, both in upper and lower jaw, the lingual height of contour is found at the middle third of the inner surface of the tooth. The lower second premolar proposes an exception as its height of curvature in inner surface is located in the occlusal third of the inner surface.

    Dilaceration is a developmental disturbance in shape of teeth. It refers to an angulation, or a sharp bend or curve, in the root or crown of a formed tooth.This disturbance is more likely to affect the maxillary incisors and occurs in permanent dentition. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Köhler_theory

    Köhler curves showing how the critical diameter and supersaturation are dependent upon the amount of solute. It's assumed here that the solute is a perfect sphere of sodium chloride with a dry diameter Dp. Köhler theory describes the vapor pressure of aqueous aerosol particles in thermodynamic equilibrium with a humid atmosphere
