Results In the univariate analysis factors race and side proved to be insignificant by the Wald test at 5% significance level. Hence the eruption sequence does not significantly differ among the Races and remains unchanged between left and right side in the mouth. Then a multivariate CoxPH model was fitted using variables District, SS, gender, jaw and type which were the significant variables in the univariate analysis. These five variables continued to be significant in the fitted multivariable…

Briefly identify and discuss bones of the appendicular and axial skeletons. • The axial skeleton consists of the following bones. The skull is made of: • There are 2 parietal bones that form the superior and lateral parts of the skull. • There are 2 temporal bones that form the inferolateral parts of the skull. • The frontal bone forms what we know as the forehead (Cancer 2016). • The occipital bone is posterior making up most of the base of the skull. • The ethmoid bone forms the anterior…

the cavity. The sponge absorbs the blood and helps to retain the clot formed. This helps in bone healing and regeneration of bone. In the third Group C of 7 patients autogenous tooth bone graft (AutoBT) was used to fill the cavity. Patient’s third molar tooth is extracted and sent to tooth bank to get it grinded in granule form of 400- 800µm. Sterilization of the material is done. After enucleation and curettage this granular form AutoBT is filled in the cavity and then gingival flap is…

(Dutton, 2012) The medial pterygoid originates on the medial surface of the lateral pterygoid plate and tuberosity of the maxilla and inserts on the medial surface of the mandible close to the angle (Dutton, 2012). These two muscles meet at the angle of the mandible to form a strong common tendinous insertion known as the pterygomasseteric sling (Thomas & Yaremchuk, 2009). During…
