Arrangement of terraced surfaces and middle Pleistocene to Holocene geomorphological evolution of the Ofanto Basin (Southern Apennines)
No full textThe Ofanto Basin is a morphostructural low located in an
intermediate position between the axial zone and the front of the
southern Apennines. The morphological evolution of this area is
very interesting because of the peculiarities related to its E-W
orientation, the anomalies of the drainage network and the
distribution of terraced surfaces. This paper focuses on the
distribution of low fluvial terraces, landslides terraces and strath
terraces as a clue to interpret the sequence of events that have
controlled the geomorphological evolution in the middle
Pleistocene – Holocene time range
Water absorption by composite resins
No full textA literature review about water absorption in dental composites has led to a number of hypotheses made for the variables affecting the experimental behaviour. It follows a discussion about the possible advantages and disadvantages of the fenomenon
Diagnosis of the active phase of periodontal disease. 2. Non-clinical parameters
No full textA review of the Literature shows that a lat of (non-clinical) umoral markers have been suggested as indicators of periodontal disease activity. The advantage of simultaneous evaluation of different markers to obtain a profile of local disease activity has been highlighted in this work as an approach that may provide an usefull picture of the local destructive disease
Use of synthetic membranes in periodontal guided tissue regeneration
No full textAuthors evaluated health's possible mechanisms of periodontal lesion and, having they studing most recent literature, they underline large possibilities of using synthetic membranes in order to having guided regeneration of periodontal tissues
Validity of motivation in prevention of periodontal disease: knowledge survey of a group of 100 patients
No full textThe Authors examine findings of literature about importance of oral hygiene motivation in order to carry out periodontal disease prevention. Furthermore they present findings of a 100 patients investigation to know how many people understand periodontal disease ethiology and how many know precautionary measures
Proposed use of natural teeth for management of a prosthetic case
No full textAuthors describe the case of a periodontopathic patient having seriously involved lower incisors. They used a splinting system consisting of a lingual metal bar using close healthy teeth as an anchor, and using previously extracted teeth of the patient to get a good aesthetical, psychological and functional result
