[Morphological features of corneal exposure to experimental near infrared emission laser].

Effect of laser radiation with wave length 1,4 microm on exposed cornea of isolated bull eye (in vitro) is studied. Experimental laser coagulator with wave length 1,4 microm based on the semiconductor laser with a fiber radiation output was used in the study. Cornea was exposed at the standardized distance to radiation with different energy settings.

Evaluation of the T-scan system in achieving functional masticatory balance.

Introduction: Uniform occlusal load distribution over the two halves of the dentition is an important factor in achieving a balanced static and functional occlusion.

Aim: To assess the capacity of the T-scan system in achieving functional masticatory balance using our own method for precise balancing of static and functional occlusal relations in fixed prostheses.

Material And Methods: The method was designed on the basis of test studies of the T-scan system and a computer program specially developed to measure the occlusal load on films recorded with the T-scan.
