To date, millions of tooth whitening kits have been sold across the world to consumers seeking to brighten their smiles. Tooth whitening products can be applied as paint-on gels, strips, or mouth guards, either at the dentist’s office or at home. The whitening ingredient in these products is hydrogen peroxide. In general, the more hydrogen peroxide, the greater the whitening power.
Toothpastes and mouth rinses may also contain low concentrations of hydrogen peroxide as a disinfectant to prevent plaque and inflammation of the gums.
Are toothpastes, mouth-rinses and tooth whitening products containing hydrogen peroxide safe? Should they be freely available to consumers?
This document discusses various dental products used to treat dental issues and promote oral hygiene. It describes three main categories of dental products: antiplaque agents which prevent plaque formation, such as chlorhexidine and povidone-iodine; anticaries agents which prevent tooth decay, such as fluorides; and dentifrices like toothpastes. Fluorides are effective anticaries agents as they help strengthen tooth enamel by incorporating fluoride ions to form fluoride-resistant hydroxyapatite crystals. Chlorhexidine is a commonly used antiplaque agent that binds to bacterial surfaces and cell membranes to kill plaque-causing bacteria.

El documento discute la seguridad de las obturaciones dentales de amalgama y los materiales alternativos. Aunque la amalgama contiene mercurio, no hay pruebas de que cause problemas de salud a menos que se tenga una alergia. Las obturaciones alternativas también parecen seguras, pero se necesita más investigación. El comité científico concluyó que ni la amalgama ni los materiales alternativos son dañinos para la salud general, y los pacientes deben decidir con sus dentistas cuál opción se ajusta mejor a sus necesidades
In light of recent scientific studies on dental amalgam, SCENIHR (Scientific Committee on Emerging and Newly Identified Health Risks) revisited its 2008 opinion on the safety and performance of both dental amalgam and possible alternatives (i.e. resin-based composites, glass ionomer cements and ceramics).
Mercury, which is the metallic element used in dental amalgam fillings, has well-documented and well-known health effects. Do dental amalgam and alternative materials pose any risks?
Bisphenol A (BPA) is used to produce certain plastics and medical devices. While BPA is efficiently metabolized when ingested, its metabolism is less efficient when exposure comes from medical devices. There is debate about the health risks of BPA exposure from food and medical devices, with some studies finding specific effects from low doses but no clear conclusions. Certain medical procedures that result in prolonged exposure, like those for neonates and dialysis patients, may pose a risk since exposure could exceed the tolerable daily intake level. More information is needed on alternatives to BPA in medical devices to properly evaluate risks versus treatment benefits.
Este documento discute los riesgos potenciales para la salud de la exposición al bisfenol A (BPA) a través de dispositivos médicos. Existe un debate sobre si el nivel actual de exposición al BPA representa un riesgo, aunque algunos estudios muestran efectos potenciales a dosis bajas. La exposición al BPA a través de dispositivos médicos como catéteres es menor que a través de alimentos, pero puede superar los niveles considerados seguros en algunos casos como en unidades de cuidados intens

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
