A well pictured presentation on Endodontic Instrumentation for UG students. Best for getting a good grip on the topic as a whole. Meant to supplement not substitute standard texts.
explained with Limited matter moreover I have included all the images. if you go through a standard textbook and referred to this PPT it will help you so much I hope It helps you
The presentation provides you with all the information required about various instruments used in conservative dentistry along with some information about a few as well along with exact picture of the instrument. It also contains basic knowledge about instruments, i.e. instrument design, instrument formula etc.

Protaper means progressively taper.

Increased flexibility
• Each instrument produces its own 'crown down effect' as larger tapers make way for smaller tapers.
• Protaper files engage a smaller area of dentine reducing torsional loads and file fatigue
Fundamentals in tooth preparation, Now many indications for treatment for teeth are not due to caries and, therefore, the preparation of the tooth is no longer referred to as cavity preparation but as tooth preparation, and the term cavity is used only as a historical reference.

Investigations on Milling Tool: - A Literature ReviewIJRES Journal
Milling machines are tools designed to machine metal, wood, and other solid materials. Often automated, milling machines can be positioned in either vertical or horizontal orientation to carve out materials based on a pre-existing design. The main aim of this paper is to focus on the study of effects of cutting tools on various materials while the parameters are kept constant and also by varying the parameters. A literature review was conducted to find the effects of different cutting tools on milling of different materials. It was found out that most of the work was done using single tool and single material and results were recorded. The literature review gives us idea to use more than one material and subject it to the single tool. And then a comparison can be made on the results that are recorded.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Classificationof Patient-CareItems
In order to determine the appropriate
treatment for any item that has been
used in patient care, you will need to
classify them into one of the following
three categories based on the risk of
infectionassociated with their intended use.
Critical
Semicritical
Noncritical
CriticalItems
Are defined as those
used to penetrate soft
tissue or bone
Since the risk of
transmission would be
high, they must be heat
sterilized
Examples:
Surgical instruments
Scalers
Forceps
Scalpels
Bone chisels
burs
41. 24/10/2013
41
ClinicalApplication
What do you use clinically everyday
that is considered a critical item?
How do you treat these items before
they are used again?
Semicritical Items
Touch mucous
membranes or non
intact skin
Have a lower risk of
transmission. However,
if an item can be heat
sterilized, it should be
heat sterilized.
Examples:
Mouth mirrors
Amalgam
condensers
Impression trays
X-ray film holders
42. 24/10/2013
42
Semicritical instruments which cannot
tolerate the high temperatures of
sterilization must be processed by
using a sterilant or high level
disinfectant.
These products achieve sterilization
(kills all forms of life including spores)
after immersion in the solution for 3
to 10 hours. Follow manufacturer’s
instructions for the product in your
office.
Which items do you use daily which
are considered semi-critical?
Do you routinely sterilize these
items?
If not, what is your method for
assuring that they have remained in
the disinfectant or sterilant for the
necessary length of time?
Clinical Application

(You must always use personal protective equipment (PPE),
including utility gloves, mask, eyewear, and protective
clothing, when processing instruments)
44. 24/10/2013
44
Definitions to remember….
Sterilization is the process that kills all
microorganisms and is considered the
highest level that can be achieved. It is
accomplished by the proper use of
immersion chemical sterilants or by heat.
High level disinfection is used when a
semicritical item cannot withstand heat
sterilization. Used correctly, it is
intended to kill disease producing
microorganisms but not spores. These
products are not used for surface
disinfection, but for immersion.
Noncritical Items
Contact intact skin only.
Have a low risk of disease
transmission.
Some of these(*) should be
precleaned and disinfected
or barrier protected. Examples:
Blood pressure
cuff
*X-ray cone
Stethoscope
*Lead apron
45. 24/10/2013
45
Universal Sterilization
“…means that all reusable
instruments and handpieces are
sterilized (rather than disinfected)
between use on patients.
This provides the highest level of
patient protection.”
Miller & Palenik, p. 196
Steralization
1. Steam autoclave:
Most effective.
Steam, heat (270 ° F), pressure (27 PSI).
for at least 6 minutes.
2. Unsaturated chemical vapor:
Best for carbon steel instruments.
Heat (270 ° F), pressure (20-40 PSI).
for at least 20 minutes.
46. 24/10/2013
46
3. Dry heat oven:
Heat (230 ° F) for 2 hours.
Temperature above 350 ° F may cause
premature instrument failure.
4. Chemical solution:
Used for materials that can not withstand heat
sterilization process.
Not recommended for metal dental
instruments.

Personal Protective Equipment
(PPE)
Protects the skin &
mucous membranes of
the eyes, nose, and
mouth from exposure
to blood or OPIM
Use of PPE is dictated
by the exposure risk,
not the patient.
Masks and Protective Eyewear
Wear a surgical mask and
protective eyewear with solid
side shields to protect
mucous membranes of the
eyes, nose, & mouth
Change masks between
patients, or during treatment
if it becomes wet
51. 24/10/2013
