1. Management of Supra Erupted Maxillary Molar by Using a Modified Removable Posterior Bite Plane – Two Case Reports

Supra erupted posterior tooth is one of the common clinical findings in dental practice. Delayed replacement of lost teeth often leads to extrusion of the opposing teeth into the edentulous space, which leads to masticatory insufficiency and TMJ disorders. When prosthesis is planned on the opposing edentulous area, re-establishing a functional posterior occlusion requires a comprehensive dental treatment plan. If the dento alveolar extrusion is not severe, it is possible to recapture the space by performing coronoplasty & intentional endodontic treatment of the supraerupted tooth. When the extrusion is moderate, orthodontic intrusion can be done ,When extrusion is severe prosthetic rehabilitation is impossible and removal of the teeth is often proposed. Through this case reports we are introducing a removable posterior bite plane retained by ball end clasp to manage a supra erupted maxillary molars along with ongoing fixed orthodontic treatment.

2. Potentialities and Challenges of Rural Market in Odisha: A Case Analysis

Potentialities and Challenges of Rural Market in Odisha: A Case Analysis w.r.t K.B.K., Odisha. Author: Prof.(Dr.) Joysingha Mishra Abhijeet Singh Abstract: Sustainable Development Goal aims to end poverty in all its forms everywhere by 2030. Almost one third of the population of our country that is more than 1.1 billion are surviving below the poverty line in rural areas. Poverty remains a chronic condition for almost 30 per cent of rural population of India. The incidence of rural poverty has declined somewhat over the past three decades as a result of rural to urban migration. While Odisha has rich in resources but it still in bottom level in the list of development index. Currently Odisha is a rural dominated state with 12.6 Percent in respect to Indian economy. The present paper is attempt to discuss about the rural marketing challenges and scope. THE OBJECTIVES : 1) To understand the rural market and its dimensions in general and Odisha in particular. 2)To study the poverty gap between rural and urban areas in Odisha. 3)To analyse the challenges and scope of rural market in Odisha with case studies. The databases used in this paper is based on secondary data, mainly Census of India, National Sample Survey Organisation and other government published report. The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of marketing strategies on rural Odisha and shift of multi national corporations concentration towards the Indian rural market. But very often, rural marketing is confused with agricultural marketing, Particular emphasis is placed on the impact of the four A’s principles on the rural economy and its participants namely farmers, landless labourers and marketing intermediaries where the marketing had a positive effect on all these through the creation of vast marketing opportunities. The driving force for this success were generating virtuous cycles in the transition marketing. As these market is observed as a high potential across the world and at the same time the absence of poor marketing policy is identified as a key for the success in the context of India where excessive intervention of private companies like H.U.L, CALVIN CARE, PORTER AND GAMBLE, ITC & Patanjali often resulted in success of rural marketing.

3. Rare Case of Scrotal Schwannoma

Schwannomas are usually benign tumors arising from Schwann cells of the peripheral nerve sheath. Most schwannomas are benign, although malignant cases are known to occur. These masses rarely occur in the retroperitoneum, comprising 0.5% to 5% of all schwannomas. Involvement of the urinary tract is rare, but the involvement of the testis, penis, spermatic cord, and tunica vaginalis has been previously reported.

5. Socket Friendly Root Analogue Implant – The Future

Replacement of missing teeth with conventional implants made up of titanium is the most popular technique in implantology. To overcome the disadvantages of the conventional implant, immediate implantation technique is being developed. Also, in esthetically demanding areas, zirconia has shown excellent results as compared to titanium. Zirconia (zirconium dioxide, ZrO2) shows excellent biocompatibility, biomechanical characteristics and also good osseointegration. Along with the properties mentioned above, there are also previous reports which show the successful use of zirconia as root-analog implants, which, reproduce the natural anatomy of the extracted tooth. This article presents a review of root analog zirconia dental implants as a novel immediate implantation material, which replaces the missing teeth. This could change the implant dentistry scenario in the future.

7. Navigate your Implants- Fool-Proof Your Surgery

Technology has entered all fields and streams in the world from manufacturing industries to health care. There have been rapid advancements in the field of dentistry too with the introduction of lasers, ozone therapy, the use of nanotechnology in various dental procedures etc. Implants are widely used now days as an ideal treatment to replace missing teeth when compared to other conventional prosthesis. The world has recently been moving to using newer types of implants like bioimplants, peek implants and to the addition we now have navigated implants. Navigated implants is a method of surgical accurate and prosthetically driven placement of implants using a real time computer guided system based on information generated from CBCT or CT images. This procedure makes implant placement a completely error free procedure with added benefits to the operator as well as the patient as well as allowing placement in certain complicated cases.

10. The Relationship between Bosses’ Leadership Style and Employees’ Perceived Internal Politics

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between bosses’ leadership style and employees perceived internal politics. As the data collection instruments, the moderated Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire, MLQ (Form 5X) developed by Bass and Avolio (1997) [3] was used to measure the bosses’ leadership style in subordinates perspectives and Perceptions of Internal Politics (POP) scale developed by Kacmar and Ferris (1991) [12]was used to measure the subordinates’ perception on internal political of the organization. Questionnaire was distributed to the 200 employees working in the ABC telecommunication company and completed 178 questionnaires were received. The research findings discovered that majority of the bosses having transformational leadership style, however, considerable volume covered both transformational and laissez-faire leadership style, as per subordinates point of view. Research findings also suggested that internal politics exists with in the organizational settings. The negative relationship between transformational leader and the perceived internal politics was visible nevertheless the relationships between transactional leadership and laissez-faire leadership with internal politics were recorded as passive. It suggested that, transformational leaders actively engaged with employee development while they are encourage employees in achieving the organizational goals. Moreover transactional leaders highly task oriented and use rewarding mechanism to get the work done from the employees, creating perception of internal politics exists in employees mind. The laissez-faire leaders who are delaying the decision making, obviously influenced by the other force within the organizational setting, persisting the feeling of ‘internal politics exists’ with in employees. This situation is adversely effect on the organizational performance and employees’ job related attitudes.

11. Psycho Social Problems of Obesity among School Children in Madurai City

Obesity is increasing at an alarming rate throughout the world. Today it is estimated that there are more than 300 million obese people world-wide. Obesity is a condition of excess body fat often associated with a large number of debilitating and life-threatening disorders. It is still a matter of debate as to how to define obesity in young people. Overweight children have an increased risk of being overweight as adults. Genetics, behaviour, and family environment play a role in childhood overweight. Childhood overweight increases the risk for certain medical and psychological conditions. Encourage overweight children to expand high energy activity, minimize low energy activity (screen watching), and develop healthful eating habits. Breastfeeding is protective against obesity. Diet restriction is not recommended in very young children. Children are to be watched for gain in height rather than reduction in weight. Weight reduction of less than 10% is a normal variation, not significant in obesity.

13. Fluorides in Orthodontics: A Review

Introduction of fluoride in all the various forms has been the greatest advances in the field of orthodontics. Previous studies have concluded that fluoride is effective in reducing the demineralized lesions or white spot lesions. Fluoride is available in various forms like gels, rinses, varnishes. Fluoride gels or fluoride rinses are effective to reduce the white spot lesion, but they act for a shorter duration. Fluoride varnish is having an advantage over other fluoride forms as they are effective for longer duration and easily acceptable to the patients.

14. Led Curing Unit in Orthodontics -A Review

Introduction of light-cured adhesives has given a great contribution and has been the greatest advances in the field of orthodontics. The most popular orthodontic adhesive is the light-cure composite resin. These adhesives have provided the practitioner the luxury of unlimited curing time. They have reduced the risk of contamination, easier removal of excess peripheral adhesive, and increased working time to position the brackets accurately on the teeth. Compared with the halogen curing system, LED lights can achieve clinical bonding success with shorter curing time. Curing-light manufacturers claim that by increasing the light intensity, less curing time will be required to reach adequate bond strengths.
