Evaluation of Efficacy of Low-Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound on Comorbidities Following Mandibular Impacted Third Molar Surgery: A Prospective Study.

Introduction: Despite several and applications of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS), it remains an under-studied feature of the oral and maxillofacial region. The goal of this study was to objectively investigate the efficacy of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound on wound healing and related morbidities following surgical removal of an impacted third molar.

Materials And Methods: The following prospective, comparative, randomised controlled clinical study was carried out amongst 56 patients who reported to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery fulfilling the inclusion criteria.

A Clinical Study for Removal of Impacted Mandibular Third Molar under Local Anaesthesia, with and without Ketamine - A Split Mouth Comparative Study.

Introduction: Disimpaction is one of the most common operations done by oral and maxillofacial surgeons around the world. Ketamine is a well-known general anaesthetic and short-acting intraoperative analgesic. The aim of this study was to measure the efficacy of anaesthesia using combined treatment with local anaesthetic plus a subanaesthetic dose of ketamine and local anaesthetic alone in bilaterally impacted mandibular third molar surgery.

The sweet potato whitefly, (Gennadius), is one of the several species complexes of whitefly that are currently significant agricultural pests. infests more than 600 plant species and thrives under a wide range of temperature conditions. In addition to the direct damage caused by sucking plant sap, it vectors several plant viruses.

Occurrence, sources, and spatial distribution of fluoride in the Ganga alluvial aquifer, India.

Groundwater contamination throughout India is a global concern as it feeds more than a billion people. Of all the contaminants, fluoride (F) is one of the most widespread and well documented since its toxic nature pose serious threats to human health. In India, groundwater F concentrations have been extensively studied over the past decades.
