Modified Dental Anxiety Scale Nepali version, is one of the tools used in epidemiological studies to measure dental anxiety in adults. The objective was to find out the prevalence of anxiety among dental patients visiting for periodontal therapy in a tertiary care hospital.

Recently EuTi Nb O emerged as a ferromagnetic system where non-trivial temperature dependent transport properties are observed due to coexistence and competition of various magnetic and non-magnetic scattering processes. In the ferromagnetic state, the resistivity shows a T temperature dependence possibly due to electron-magnon scattering and above the Curie temperature [Formula: see text], the dependence changes to T behaviour indicating a correlation between transport and magnetic properties.

The anatomy of root canal morphology plays a decisive role in determining the conditions under which endodontic treatment can be performed effectively.

The aim of this study was to assess the self-perception of dental appearance among Eastern Nepalese patients using aesthetic component (AC) of the index of orthodontic treatment need (IOTN) and to compare it with that of an orthodontist's assessment using the same scale and determine whether gender, area of residence, and level of education influence subject's self-perception and orthodontist's ratings. Methods.
