Effect of silver diamine fluoride and potassium iodide on shear bond strength for glass ionomer cement to primary dentine.

Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) is a highly effective topical fluoride for halting dental caries; however, it darkens both teeth and restorations. Therefore, it is of interest to assess the shear bond strength (SBS) of glass ionomer cement (GIC) to caries-affected dentin treated with SDF alone and SDF followed by KI. Forty primary molar samples were prepared to reveal a flat dentin surface and were randomly assigned to two groups.

A naïve comparison to assess the success of ultra-short implants.

Introduction: Conventional implants are associated with ridge augmentation/sinus lift procedures in vertically insufficient ridges, which increase morbidity and healing time. Short implants provided some hope in this context. The present study considered the use of ultra-short implants in vertically insufficient posterior mandibular ridges and evaluated their success.

Graph NLU enabled question answering system.

With a huge amount of information being stored as structured data, there is an increasing need for retrieving exact answers to questions from tables. Answering natural language questions on structured data usually involves semantic parsing of query to a machine understandable format which is then used to retrieve information from the database. Training semantic parsers for domain specific tasks is a tedious job and does not guarantee accurate results.
