Fixed partial dentures transmit forces through the abutments to the periodontium. Failures are due to poor engineering, the use of improper materials, inadequate tooth preparation, and faulty fabrication. Of particular concern to prosthodontist is the selection of teeth for abutments. They must recognize the forces developed by the oral mechanism, and resistance.
Successful selection of abutments for fixed partial dentures requires sensitive diagnostic ability. Thorough knowledge of anatomy, ceramics, the chemistry and physics of dental materials, metallurgy, Periodontics, phonetics, physiology, radiology and the mechanics of oral function is fundamental.
The scope of fixed prosthodontics treatment can range from the restoration of a single tooth to the rehabilitation of the entire occlusion. Single teeth can be restored to full function, and improvement in
esthetics can be achieved. Missing teeth can be replaced with fixed prostheses that will improve patient comfort and masticatory ability, maintain the health and integrity of the dental arches, and, in many instances, elevate the patient’s self-image.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

2. ROATARY INSRUMENTS
These are small and held in a handpiece e.g. burs,
stones, discs
The instrument is rotated in the handpiece from an
external source, either compressed air or directly by an
electric motor
Two main broad types of equipment used covering two
speed ranges
1) The airotor
2) Low-speed handpieces
3. The airotor (air turbine)
Gives the highest speeds but with less torque
than low-speed handpieces
Speed ranges from 250 000-500 000 rev/minute
High speeds are achieved by a small air-driven
rotor or turbine mounted in bearings in the head
of a contra-angle handpiece
Shank of the bur is inserted into the rotor of the
handpiece and revolves with it
Handpiece contains a system which directs
water spray at the cutting head of the bur
Often contains a fibre-optic light
Rotates only clockwise
4. Low-speed handpieces
They are either:-
Contra-angle—used exclusively in the
mouth
Straight—used for trimming temporary
crowns or for other procedures carried
out outside the mouth
Unlike the airotor, speed is less
(operating over different ranges ) but
torque is greater
Most are equipped with use of a water
spray incase of higher speed ranges
5. Drive for low-speed handpieces comes from a
small electric motor attached to the handpiece
Speed controlled by, foot control, OR control on
the electric motor, OR on the dental unit
Alternatively, Air motor, less expensive, is
directly attached to the end of the handpiece
Unlike the airotor, Low-speed handpieces can
be rotated clockwise AND anti-clockwise
6. Maintaining and sterilizing handpieces
They are all autoclavable and
should be done so in between
patients
Lubricated before and after
autoclave
Lubricant is delivered from an
aerosol using an adapter
OR by an air-driven cleaning
and lubricating machine
7. Burs and stones
Rotary cutting instruments are retained
in the handpiece by :-
Friction—in the older type of airotors
A latch grip–in the contra-angle low
speed handpieces
A quick release clamping chuck—in
the straight handpiece and now in most
contra-angle, low speed handpieces
and airotors
Cutting end of the instrument consists
of either a set of blades of tungsten
carbides, or steel or abrasive material,
ranging in hardness from diamond to
sand
8. Airotor burs They have friction grip shanks
Cutting end is of a hard material like diamond or
tungsten carbide due to use of high speed
They are used to cut sound enamel and dentine
and to remove existing restorations
Not used to remove caries
For enamel cutting—best to use diamond and
some tungsten carbide burs
For ceramic materials—best cut with diamond
burs
All other restorations—best cut with tungsten
carbide
Metal restorations—cut by special tungsten
carbide burs (Beaver burs)
Diamond instruments cut metal very slowly and
ordinary tungsten carbide burs tend to break
9. Low-speed burs
Large selection of burs available in a range
of sizes, numbered according to the
diameter of the cutting tip
Steel burs—not expensive but have a short
working life as they are rapidly blunted by
enamel and rust if not dried after
autoclaving
Tungsten carbide—more commonly used
now as they run more smoothly than steel
and can be autoclaved
Round burs used to remove soft carious
dentine at slow speed
Steel burs—does not cut sound dentine or
enamel very quickly at slow speed allowing
the clinician to feel his way around the
carious lesion
10. Stones-shaping instruments
Made of abrasives such as carborundum
(green ) and alundum (white or pink )
Moulded into a range of shapes and
fixed directly to a bur shank
Uses:-
1) final stages of tooth preparation for
smoothing the surfaces
2)shaping, smoothing and finishing cast
metal and porcelain restorations out of
the mouth
For this, they are used at medium speed
in the straight handpiece
11. Finishing instruments
1) Burs and points
Made of steel—for
amalgam
Made of very fine
diamond particles
and or multifluted
tungsten carbide—
for composite
12. 2)Discs
Rigid and flexible discs available with
abrasive materials of different degrees
of coarseness applied to one or both
surfaces
Some discs also cut at their edges
All discs are either mounted on
mandrels of screw design or snap-on
mandrels
Rigid discs in a straight handpiece are
used for cutting and trimming, posts and
temporary crowns outside the mouth
Flexible single-sided discs commonly
used for finishing composite and other
restorations
13. 3) Abrasive strips
Used to finish restorations and are hand held
flexible strips with abrasive on one side
Metal strips—used to remove over hanging
amalgam ledges on old restorations
However, these are not very effective and
harmful to the gingival papilla
Plastic strips– used to finish composite
restorations on the approximal surfaces of teeth
14. Maintaining and sterilizing burs and
stones
All burs and stones should be autoclaved
Re-usable Steel burs are dried quickly after
autoclaving or they will corrode
Flexible discs and strips are disposable
Tungsten carbide burs and diamond burs should
be assessed regularly and discarded if they
become blunt, worn out, break or are bent
15. Tooth preparation with rotary instruments
Speed, torque and ‘feel’
Torque is the “turning moment” of the instrument
High-torque system—pressure applied to the surface by means of the bur
with only minimal slowing of the drive
However, heat, vibration and increased amount of material is removed
High speed—low torque
Enamel, porcelain and metal—cut at high speed with low torque
Carious dentine or other softer material—cut at low speed with higher torque
High speed—cutting has to be controlled visually as there is very little “feel”
and difficulty with water spray
Low speed—much easier to feel the cutting process
16. Heat generation and dissipation
Heat is generated in proportion to the work done
Potentially damaging to the vital pulp
High speed cutting always produces sufficient heat and
use of cooling water spray is required
Prolonged slow-speed cutting may also produce heat
Advised to wash and dry the cavity at frequent intervals
to improve visibility and cooling of the tooth
17. Effects on the patient
Tooth preparation with rotary instruments has the
potential of producing
pain
pressure
vibration
trauma and
long term-effects on the pulp
18. The longer time of cutting and the higher the local temperature
produced, the greater is the threat of thermal trauma
Steel burs produce more heat then carbide burs due to inefficient
cutting
Burs and diamonds when plugged with debris or if are dull do not
cut efficiently resulting in increased heat production
Diamond instruments generate more damaging heat than carbide
burs when used without coolants
Hence, instrument coolants like air or air-water spray are most
commonly used
Provided that cooling is adequate, superficial enamel cutting may
not be painful…however, cutting dentine in a vital tooth may be
painful and local analgesics may be used
Vibration which may be produced in a rotary instrument and cause
discomfort in a patient is produced less if the bur is gripped more
firmly in the hand piece OR an electric motor drive is used instead of
an air motor
19. Pressure needs to be controlled as there is greater pressure in a
low speed and higher torque as compared with high speed and low
pressure
Proper examination of the tooth and pre-operative radiographic
assessment will cause accidental and unexpected exposure of the
pulp due to careless cutting
Damage to sound adjacent teeth is common when preparing
approximal surfaces
Damage to adjacent gingival margin is also very common
Particles of old restoration, tooth structure, bacteria and other debris
are discharged at high speed s from the patients mouth which may
cause eye damage
20. Precautions
All this can be avoided by:-
Choosing proper size and shape of bur
Use of rubber dam for isolation
Use of gingival retraction cord
Use of protective eye glasses
21. Finishing and polishing
For surface finish, straight burs provide a smoother finish than
cross-cue designs
Tungsten carbide burs provide a smoother finish than either steel or
diamond burs
Margins and surfaces of restorations should be smooth and
polished
This minimizes plaque retention
All materials should be shaped when they are unset so minimal
shaping is required with abrasive or finishing instruments
For increased shaping, coarser instrument used first and finest at
the end of the procedure
22. Auxiliary instruments and equipment
Fibre-optic lights
Fibre-optic lighting system provides good
illumination during cavity preparation
Present at the tip of the handpiece and available
with airotors and low-speed handpieces
Also available are independent fibre-optic lights
and those built in some mouth mirrors
23. Light used for Polymerization
of certain materials
May restorative materials now
polymerized using intense visible
light
Light is transmitted down a flexible
light guide which is either a fibre-
optic gel or cable
Light can also be contained in a
hand held equipment connected to
an electrical supply
Disadvantages:- light of such
intensity may damage the retina,
hence must never be shone directly
in anyone’s eye
Therefore, protective screens or
spectacles are used
24. Ultrasonic scalers
The working tip vibrates at ultrasonic frequency under voluminous
water sprays
They provide a quick and efficient way of removing calculus
Also used in endodontics
And for loosening crowns or posts
Electrosurgical equipment
They remove hyperplastic gingival tissue
Gain access to cavity margins
Expose the margins of a tooth fractured below gingival level
