In 1909, Charles A. Clark described a radiographic procedure for localizing impacted teeth to determining their relative antero-posterior position. [1] If the two teeth (or, by extension, any two objects, such as a tooth and a foreign object) are located in front of one another relative to the x-ray beam, they will appear superimposed on one another on a dental radiograph, but it will be ...
For proper bonding of resin composite restorations, dentin should be conditioned with polyacrylic acids to remove the smear layer, created during mechanical treatment with dental bore, and expose some of the collagen network or organic matrix of dentin. Adhesive resin should create the so-called hybrid layer (consisting of a collagen network ...
The use of Level III codes was discontinued on December 31, 2003, in order to adhere to consistent coding standards. [3]: 2 Level III codes were different from the modern CPT Category III codes, which were introduced in 2001 to code emerging technology. [4]

10-Methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (10-MDP, MDP Monomer) is a chemical compound used in dental adhesive materials. This organophosphate monomer was developed in 1981 by the Japanese company Kuraray for the preparation of dental adhesion polymers [ 1 ]
