Abstract:
The Article presents postulates of ecological esthetics of nature according to human experience of ecological crisis taking into consideration threat of good mode of a person, who is described by sensory-emotional quality of his environment. According to this approach, ecological esthetics ought to be preceded by esthetics of nature which portrays human attitudes named „delight in nature”. The article presents also reconstruction of „history of esthetical concept of nature” which starts from Plato’s three: truth, good, and beauty. Therefore, paradoxically experience of ecological crisis forces: first – „rehabilitation of esthetics of nature” and second – postulate of „ecological esthetics of nature” as an answer on nowadays need of living in nature and with nature. It seems that in our time we more need nature than whenever before.

Abstract:
At no time in recent history has the interest in esthetics, biological safety, and the relative cost and efficacy of dental care been greater. In view of porcelain's desirable esthetic properties and biocompatibility, it is understandable that the major emphasis in ceramics research has been directed toward an enhancement of the strength, longevity, and esthetic properties of porcelain restorations. The ceramo-metal restoration is still the mainstay of fixed prosthodontics and finds broad application in high-stress areas and for the restoration of multiple units. Research has focused upon minimizing destructive interfacial stresses, improvement in esthetics, and the development of dispersion-strengthened porcelains. Advances in individual porcelain jacket crowns have included the use of higher strength aluminous porcelain, the use of tin-plated platinum foil, bonding porcelain to a swaged gold and palladium foil matrix, and the most recent development-castable glass ceramic materials.

Abstract:
The history of adhesives in dentistry dates back to the first millennium when Mayans used to attach semiprecious stones to teeth as dental jewellery. The first dental cement was introduced in 1796 and, as demand for esthetics and bonding strength increased, was perfected throughout the next 150 years. Since 1955, new adhesives using bonding agents have been developed.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTAn implant-supported hybrid prosthesis is an acrylic resin complete fixed dental prosthesis and supported by implants might be a solution in extreme cases that the need of the restoration for esthetics, function, lip support, and speech. This clinical report aims to present the esthetic and functional prosthetic rehabilitation of three borderline cases with implant-supported hybrid prostheses. Patient 1 (62-year-old man) and Patient 2 (61-year-old man) presented a chief complaint of a compromised esthetic. After clinical evaluations, in Patient 1, 8 implants in the maxilla and 7 implants in mandibula were observed. Patient 2 had 7 implants in the maxilla and 7 implants in mandibula, which were previously placed. The intra-arch dimension of both patients was excessive and an insufficient peri-oral soft tissue support was observed. Patient 3 was a 61-year-old man had 2 implants with a history of previously implanted graft infection and implant loss on his maxillary posterior jaw. An excessive intra-arch dimension was observed in clinical examination. In addition, massive bone defect and insufficient soft tissue support were examined. In all patients, implant-supported hybrid prostheses were successfully performed. The clinical and radiologic findings were satisfactory. After 3 years of follow-up, no functional, phonetic, or esthetic problems with the restorations were noted. These case reports suggest that implant-supported hybrid prostheses can be a reliable alternative treatment procedure when a porcelain-fused metal fixed restoration does not satisfy a patient's requirements for esthetics, phonetics, oral hygiene, and oral comfort.

Abstract:
Abstract Dental implants have emerged as a predictable treatment option for partial edentulism. Their ability to preserve bone and soft tissue yields highly esthetic results in the long term. Increasingly, patients are demanding not only enhancements to their dental (micro) esthetics but also to their overall facial (macro) esthetics. Dynamic wrinkles (caused by hyperfunctional muscles) in the perioral, glabellar, and forehead regions can cause a patient's expressions to be misinterpreted as angry, anxious, fearful, or fatigued. An emerging treatment option to address these issues is the use of a paralyzing material such as botulinum toxin A (Botox) to decrease the appearance of the wrinkles, which yields a more esthetic and youthful facial appearance. Botox is a deadly poison that is produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum and causes muscle paralysis by inhibiting acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction. When used in areas of hyperfunctional muscles, a transient partial paralysis occurs that diminishes the appearances of wrinkles, Therefore, wrinkles not attributable to hyperfunctional muscles (eg, wrinkles caused by aging, gravity, photodamage, trauma, and scarring) will not be amenable to treatment with the toxin. As a result, proper case selection is essential. A thorough understanding of the indications, techniques, dosages, and complications and their management is imperative to achieve a satisfactory result. This article will review the pathogenesis of facial wrinkles as well as the history, techniques, clinical controversies, and other important considerations for successful treatment of facial wrinkles with Botox.

Abstract:
The article focuses on the problem of transformation of a musical language, the correlation between an esthetic guideline, an invention, a composition technique and a language. The author describes the two strategies of life and work of Pierre Boulez which allowed him to gain significant cultural authority, and enumerates the persons who had influenced Boulez’s esthetics. In a broad esthetic and philosophical context, the author shows the turn from the technique to the language in esthetical and theoretical texts of Pierre Boulez; describes the three concepts of the language, the period of synthesis following the period of rejection, and Boulez’s concerns about the problems of music perception. In the context of Boulez’s thesis about the unity of an invention, a technique and a language, the author considers the piece for viola “Trema” (1981) by Heinz Holliger, Boulez’s adherent. The author uses a comprehensive approach as a combination of elements of comparative analysis, musical phenomenology (focusing of mind on music structures), and hermeneutics (the process of understanding, interpreting). The research material is of a methodical importance for modern educational courses of theory and history of music. The author arrives at the conclusion that Boulez, as well as Kant, directs the concept of art towards Aristotle's category of “poiesis” as “craft and creation”; focuses on the overcoming of the esthetics of rejection (preceding the classic-romantic tradition) in Boulez’s turn to the period of “synthesis” which includes not only the turn from a technique to a language, but also electroacoustic “sound manufacturing”.  The following aspects of Hollinger’s “Trema” are considered for the first time: the idea, the principles of new solo music, the new technique. The author arrives at the conclusion about “Trema” belonging to the “multilayered music epoch” and that radical rethinking of a musical language sharpens communication.

Abstract:
SUMMARY Objective: Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a heterogenous genetic disorder that interferes with normal enamel formation in the absence of systemic disorders. The patients' main concerns are caries susceptibility, poor esthetics, and generalized sensitivity. There is a broad clinical spectrum, from discolorations to consequent enamel alterations. This case report describes the 15-year case study and the full-mouth rehabilitation of two siblings affected by a hypocalcified AI. Clinical Considerations: In these two patients, conservative care with stainless steel crowns and direct composite restorations was undertaken to restore function and esthetics and to reduce sensitivities in primary and mixed dentitions. The difficulties in monitoring resulted in severe infectious complications (dental abscess with cutaneous fistula), important dental defects, and loss of spaces with subsequent malocclusion. In the young adult dentition, they were treated by extractions, root canal therapies, and new restorations: stainless steel crowns for permanent molars, direct composite restorations (with strip crowns) for incisors and maxillary canines (to improve the crown morphology as well as to mask the discolorations and the malpositions), and adjusted composite crown molds using a thermoforming procedure for premolars and the mandibular canines. The main difficulties were rapid tooth surface loss, bonding to atypical enamel, developing dentition, long-term follow-up. Conclusion: Restoring function and esthetics in AI-affected patients is a challenge from primary to adult dentition. Early corrections are essential to avoid dental damage and for psychological benefits. This clinical report highlights the adhesive rehabilitation for anterior and premolar areas and the difficulty of patient follow-up.

Abstract:
Oligodontia is a developmental dental anomaly. It is either an isolated trait or part of a syndrome. Oligodontia is characterized by the congenital absence of more than six permanent teeth except the third molars. In this presented case, the treatment plan aimed at psychological, esthetic and functional rehabilitation of the patient who was suffering from oligodontia. After taking a thorough medical and dental history, clinical and radiological examination, the patient was treated with a removable partial denture in the maxillary arch, while a complete denture was made in the mandibular arch. The patient’s esthetics was greatly improved and early functional rehabilitation of the patient was done. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/updcj.v4i1.21167 Update Dent. Coll. j: 2014; 4 (1): 38-43

Abstract:
The esthetics and functional integrity of the periodontal tissue may be compromised by dental loss. Immediate implants became a viable option to maintain the periodontal architecture because of their anatomic compatibility with the dental socket and the possibility of eliminating local contamination. This article describes the procedure of immediate implant placement in the anterior maxilla replacing teeth with chronic periapical lesions, which were condemned due to endodontic lesions persisting after failed endodontic treatment and endodontic surgery, and discusses the relationship between the procedure and periapical lesions. Surgical removal of hopeless teeth 11, 12 and 21 was performed conservatively in such a way to preserve the anatomy and gingival esthetics. A second surgical access was gained at the apical level, allowing the debridement of the surgical chamber for elimination of the periapical lesion, visual orientation for setting of the implants and filling of the surgical chamber with xenogenous bovine bone graft. After this procedure, the bone chamber was covered with an absorbent membrane and the healing screws were positioned on the implants. Later, a provisional partial removable denture was installed and the implants were inserted after 6 months. After 3 years of rehabilitation, the implants present satisfactory functional and esthetic conditions, suggesting that immediate implant placement combined with guided bone regeneration may be indicated for replacing teeth lost due to chronic periapical lesions with endodontic failure history in the anterior maxilla.

Abstract:
It is not a new question whether art is an ontological field or an ethic value field. But when this question is asked, it is understood that it is closely related with several parameters such as what art and artist do and do not represent, ethics and readability of representation. Especially, whole art history made art works, artists and style of eras dependable on how to read what they represent and/or represented. All this representation character in some instance requires the implemented relation of art with reality and meaning to be dealt with both formal and ethic value. In this study, modern esthetics which is purely ontological and autonomous field with elitist behavior is criticized; an essay containing contemporary discussions is done on new paradigms and their representation formats which developed a new esthetics on what they do not represent through ethical value within the frame of historic dynamics.

AbstractOrthognathic surgery performed in conjunction with orthodontic treatment is commonly performed to correct skeletal irregularities and realign the maxillomandibular relationship to improve occlusal function and facial esthetics. A thorough understanding of soft tissue esthetics, skeletal and occlusal relationships, and surgical techniques is required to obtain successful results. Surgical techniques have evolved greatly throughout history, as technological advances such as virtual surgical planning have become available and widely used to obtain predictable movements with minimized complications. The aim of this article is to review the orthognathic surgical procedures of the mandible, with particular attention to the indications, contraindications, preoperative assessment, surgical technique, and possible complications encountered.

Abstract:
The article discusses the Ethos as one of the most interesting applications of ancient Greek philosophy as a musical-ethical term. Ancient Greek philosophers constantly used music as a tool of ethics not only in philosophy, but also in all historical music, and this can be called a developmental phenomenon. Ethos is an event in the history of civilization, and in this context, the combination of music and ethics in human activity gives its essence. The understanding of ethics by Plato, like most Greek philosophers, is aimed at nobility, free citizens who are not slaves. And the concept of Aristotle's musical esthetics is based on a clear relationship between esthetics and ethics (worldview), theory and practice.

Abstract:
Introduction: Missing anterior teeth have a great impact on the psychological status of an individual due to the unesthetic appearance. These can be restored using removable prostheses, conventional bridges, resin-bonded prostheses, or implants. A resin-bonded fixed prosthesis is a minimally invasive treatment option in such cases to restore function and esthetics. Case Presentation: This case report describes the CAD-CAM zirconia Maryland bridge as a treatment modality for effective restoration of the missing maxillary central incisor in a 32-year-old female patient who reported the chief complaint of unesthetic appearance. The patient had a history of extraction due to trauma 6 months ago with normal overjet and overbite. Discussion: One of the types of resin-bonded prosthesis is a Maryland bridge which involves minimal tooth preparation with supragingival margins, thus maintaining periodontal health. Maryland bridges enhance dental esthetics with minimal loss of tooth structure. Conclusion: CAD-CAM fabricated all-ceramic resin-bonded prosthesis is an efficacious way of replacing missing anterior teeth, restoring function, providing excellent esthetics, and thus boosting patient’s confidence. Keywords: CAD-CAM zirconia, Maryland bridge, missing anterior tooth, resin-bonded fixed prosthesis, resin-bonded restoration.

Abstract:
In his intellectual biography, William James: In the Maelstrom of American Modernism, Robert Richardson never defines modernism, and never addresses the reasons for its turbulence in America. But he does present the maelstrom through his subject, showing how James helped drive the modernist sensibility he inhabited—a whirlwind of creativity and intellectual passion “whose leading ideas,” to quote Richardson, “are still so fresh and challenging that they are not yet fully assimilated by the modern world they helped to bring about.” Presenting James as an intellectual activity, Richardson focuses on bringing the emotional background of that activity into view, chronicling James's intellectual history as splashes from a turbulent stream of consciousness. The book's dedication to Annie Dillard next to the book's epigraph from James reveals Richardson's respect for the volatility both writers represented. The dedication is: “For Annie, who wrote, ‘we have less time than we knew and that time buoyant, and cloven, lucent, missile, and wild,’” followed by the epigraph from James testifying that, “[life] feels like a real fight—as if there were something really wild in the universe which we, with all our idealities and faithfulnesses, are needed to redeem.”

Abstract:
Background Reconstruction of congenital microtia remains challenging, particularly in patients with a history of ear canaloplasty due to insufficient regional soft tissue. The insertion of a tissue expander prior to implantation of the cartilage framework has traditionally been employed. However, this procedure could induce additional morbidity. Herein, we present a method using V-Y advancement of a temporal triangular flap to gain additional soft tissue in these challenging cases.Methods Congenital microtia patients with a history of ear canaloplasty who underwent auricular reconstruction using the Nagata technique between 2016 and 2020 were reviewed. To obtain additional soft tissue, V-Y advancement of a temporal triangular flap was performed concurrently with implantation of the costal cartilage framework, without prior insertion of a tissue expander. The outcomes of these patients with respect to postoperative complications and esthetics were evaluated.Results Eight patients with bilateral lesions were included. No specific complications developed after the first-stage surgery. However, one patient experienced complications after the second stage (auricular elevation). An analysis of the esthetic results showed most patients had excellent outcomes, achieving a satisfactory convolution. The median number of operations needed to complete reconstruction was 2, which was fewer than required using the conventional method with prior insertion of a tissue expander.Conclusions In patients with a history of previous canaloplasty, V-Y advancement of a temporal triangular flap could serve as an alternative to tissue expansion for microtia reconstruction. This technique provided reliable and satisfactory results with a reduced number of surgical stages.

Abstract:
The objective of this case report was to describe the oral rehabilitation of a five-year-old boy patient diagnosed with amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) in the primary dentition. AI is a group of hereditary disorders that affects the enamel structure. The patient was brought to the dental clinic complaining of tooth hypersensitivity during meals. The medical history and clinical examination were used to arrive at the diagnosis of AI. The treatment was oral rehabilitation of the primary molars with stainless steel crowns and resin-filled celluloid forms. The main objectives of the selected treatment were to enhance the esthetics, restore masticatory function, and eliminate the teeth sensitivity. The child was monitored in the pediatric dentistry clinic at four-month intervals until the mixed dentition stage. Treatment not only restored function and esthetic, but also showed a positive psychological impact and thereby improved perceived quality of life. The preventive, psychological, and curative measures of a young child with AI were successful. This result can encourage the clinicians to seek a cost-effective technique such as stainless steel crowns, and resin-filled celluloid forms to reestablish the oral functions and improve the child’s psychosocial development.

Abstract To restore the stomatognathic system of the patient with an edentulous span of 12–13 years who presents flabby tissue in the maxillary tuberosity region, severe resorption in the mandible along with reduced masticatory efficiency, and speech impairments in his old dentures. Complete denture rehabilitation helps patients cope with the significant psychological and social consequences of tooth loss. In today’s image-conscious culture, dentures help sufferers reconnect with the world and re-establishes normal form, function, and esthetics. The most common complaints about prostheses are chewing, as well as poor esthetics and phonetics. Prosthetic rehabilitation for denture wearers should include more than just replacing missing teeth. The ultimate goals should be phonetics, esthetics, and oral function restoration. This article describes a simple, low-cost, practical, and beneficial procedure for the rehabilitation of people with complete dentures who have speech impairment, bone resorption, and flabby tissue. A 71-year-old male patient who is a teacher by profession and has a 30-year habit of chewing kharra paid a visit to the Department of Prosthetic Dentistry at Sharad Pawar Dental College and Hospital in Sawangi, Wardha. He was dissatisfied with his previous dentures because they did not provide adequate chewing quality, pronunciation, or esthetics. After compiling his dental history, it was discovered that he had previously worn dentures for 12 years and had missing teeth due to periodontal disease for 12–13 years. The case report affirms a simple and unique technique for the fabrication of dental prostheses. Palatograms are common, but the technique described in the case report is simple to implement. We achieved both form and function by resolving the issues of residual ridge resorption in the mandibular arch and flabby tissue in the maxillary arch. To summarize, deviations from natural speech immediately following complete denture rehabilitation are completely normal, and a pretreatment speech diagnosis is required for a more accurate comparison. Accustoming the patient to such instantaneous speech deviations must improve his adaptability. Palatograms are useful in identifying these deviations and confirming corrected palatal contours. Simple and low-cost, it is ideal for patients with total dentures and speech disorders.

Composite is always a preferred material of choice over amalgam because of better esthetics and ease of manipulation. But polymerization shrinkage is one disadvantage of this material which needs to be discussed as it effects the longevity of the restoration. More polymerization shrinkage results in microleakage and eventually the failure of the restoration. Therefore, the present article is aim to discuss in detail the causes and prevention of microleakage for better understanding.

Abstract:
Background: Orthodontics has recently seen an increase in the number of adult population seeking treatment. Financial dependency, increasing awareness and availability of service can be the reasons behind this rise. Though, clinical myths regarding duration, effectiveness of treatment, associated systemic conditions still exist, these should be of no concern and with adequate monitoring and procedural modifications, conventional orthodontic treatment is possible.Case description: A 58 year old Type II diabetic male presented to orthodontic clinic with unesthetic gap between upper front teeth. The history revealed extraction of painful mesiodens. On examination, the patient had Class I molar, canine and incisor relationship. 21 was rotated with 5mm of space between central incisors. Fixed orthodontic treatment was planned after physician consultation regarding his diabetic condition. Bondable buccal tubes instead of bands were used in first molars, 0.022” Roth brackets were bonded on other maxillary teeth. The wire gradually progressed from 0.014”NiTi, 0.016”NiTi to 0.018”SS. Lingual button was attached on the labial and lingual surface of 21 to apply couple. After the correction of rotation of 21, remaining space closure with esthetic contouring of 21 was done. Maintenance of adequate oral hygiene was reinforced throughout the treatment period. Fixed lingual retainer was bonded and pericision performed to retain the achieved result.Conclusion: Orthodontic treatment can be carried out in diabetic adults with good glycemic control to achieve esthetic results; however, measures for maintenance of adequate oral hygiene should be undertaken. Interdisciplinary approach involving restorative procedures can enhance the esthetics achieved.JCMS Nepal. 2015;11(3):30-34

Abstract:
Abstract Objective: To investigate whether the oral health of young male adults was related to (1) the degree of self-perceived malocclusion, (2) the degree of experienced negative psychosocial impact of dental esthetics, and (3) the history of orthodontic treatment and its duration. Materials and Methods: The study subjects were 470 male naval recruits undergoing a routine dental health checkup. They answered the Perception of Occlusion Scale (POS) and Negative Impact of Dental Aesthetics Scale (NIDAS). The Approximal Plaque Index (API), the Sulcus Bleeding Index (SBI), and the number of decayed teeth (DT) and missing teeth (MT) were examined by a staff dentist. Statistical procedures were one-way analyses of variance in the API and SBI and nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney, and χ2 tests in DT and MT as dependent variables. Results: (1) The subjects ranging within the upper POS quartile scored higher on the SBI (contrast: P = .003) and DT (P = .002) than did those in the lower POS quartiles. (2) In contrast to the subjects reporting minor negative impacts in the NIDAS, those with strong impacts had higher scores on the API and MT (each P < .001). (3) In the subjects with a history of orthodontic treatment lasting 30 months and longer, lower API (P < .05), SBI and DT (each P = .002), and MT (P = .007) scores were found than in the subjects without previous orthodontic treatment. Conclusion: The results suggest that self-perceived dental irregularity and negative impact of dental esthetics might affect oral health, whereas previous extensive orthodontic treatment may have favorable effects by improving dental health compliance.

Case description: A 60 year old female patient presented to Department of Prosthodontics, CODS, BPKIHS, Dharan with a chief complain of loose obturator. History revealed that patient had undergone partial maxillectomy for squamous cell carcinoma 7 years back. The patient also has been wearing obturator which was loose when the patient reported to the department. On examination, the site of surgery was the maxillary right buccal sulcus area and a part of the hard palate including teeth number 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17. The presented defect situation corresponded to a Class I situation (resection performed along the palatalmidline) according to the Aramany classification of defects. The surgical site showed complete healing. A hollow-bulb obturator was fabricated for rehabilitation of the defect.Conclusion: The extensive surgical procedures necessary to eradicate cancer of the head and neck and to prevent local recurrence or regional metastasis often leave extremely large physical defects which present almost insurmountable surgical difficulties in restoring acceptable function or esthetics. The prosthesis rehabilitated the patient in terms of function by providing better masticatory efficiency, phonetics by adding resonance to the voice, hence improving the clarity of speech and also improved the esthetics of the patient.JCMS Nepal 2014; 10(4):32-36

In this interview, artistic director and choreographer Thomas Prestø speaks with cultural studies scholar Dr. Gladys M. Francis about his personal journey as a hyper visible Black boy growing up in a Norwegian region known as a hub for neo-Nazi groups. Subjected to various forms of torture, Prestø discusses how his experiences shaped his politics of arts when he founded the Tabanka Dance Company to promote “a sustainable Black identity” that converges both Caribbean and African movement esthetics to tell the stories of Blacks in Norway. Prestø presents how his body of work informs Black diaspora studies in terms of art and culture through issues of minority identities, body-memory, body-politics, and political and cultural agency relating to Black performances and cultures in Norway. He discusses principles on “Caribfuturism” and corporealities within what he calls “the uniqueness of the Afropean, the Afro-Scandinavian and the poly-Diasporan.” His insights on the prejudiced mechanisms of representation and segmentation of cultures visible in Norway also convey how his artistic productions offer challenging esthetics and representations of gender and sexuality for performing Brown and Black artists.

Abstract:
Background: The need for dental esthetics is very important in recent years. Fulfilling aesthetic demands with both non-invasive and minimally invasive techniques can maintain tissue continuity. A 38 year old female patient came to the clinic with an esthetic complaint of maxillary anterior teeth. The following case report describes a step by step complex aesthetic treatment of a patient with multiple caries. Appealing aesthetic results will restore the patient's smile through restorative treatment in dentistry. Purpose: The purpose of this case report is to explain the management of complex aesthetic treatment of patients with multiple caries Case: A 38-year-old female patient complained her upper front teeth is turning black. The patient complained that her teeth had hurt ± 3 months ago and sometimes felt sore. The patient wants her teeth to be treated because she feels less confident when she smiles and wants to fix these teeth. The history of treatment on the tooth in question have had root canal treatment and been filled since 8 years ago. The tooth has had braces (orthodontic) treatment and was removed ± 7 years ago. The patient stated that she had no systemic health disorder. Case management : The treatment of this complex case were done using root canal treatment, endodontic retreatment, direct and indirect veneer, dowel, and crown. Conclusion: complex aesthetic treatment of patients with multiple were done aiming for good aesthetic result

Abstract:
Most of orthodontic patients seek treatment to improve their facial and dental esthetics which is compromised due to variety of malocclusions. Malocclusion can be caused by skeletal or dental factors. Dental malocclusion includes crowding, spacing, increased overjet, and overbite, rotations of teeth etc. Correction of some malocclusions like crowding and increased overjet needs space in the dental arch. There are various methods for creating space in the dental arch such as proximal stripping, distalization of molars, extractions, expansion of arch, and proclination of anterior teeth, and derotation of posterior teeth. In this article, we will briefly discuss about these methods.

Abstract:
Reactive lesions of soft tissue are common oral lesions that are usually non-neoplastic growths without pain; however, they can interfere with oral hygiene and plaque control, and if present in the anterior segment, they can cause esthetics problems. In this case, there was a reactive lesion at the gingiva of the left maxillary central incisor area. The particular consideration about this case was the recurrence of a peripheral ossifying fibroma as a pyogenic granuloma, indicating the association between reactive gingival lesions. The history of several recurrences due to incomplete removal shows the importance of complete excision for preventing recurrence. Therefore, the lesion was completely excised, and the mucogingival defect was successfully augmented with periodontal plastic surgery.

Purpose: This work is a trial study for International Airports esthetics developments. The work was introduced to explore the disparity and activities of that airports as well as its benefit to tourism growth internationally. All that in order to give a clear understanding and appreciation of the importance of mural and artistic works in the architecture of international airports, all of which are beneficial to the aesthetic, visual, technical and psychological benefits of travelers and visitors, as well as the benefits to tourism and culture of the country in which there are airports. Materials and methods: The practical experience of the researcher is based on three main axes, through which it deals with some aspects of the Yemeni environment to be applied within some of the wall works in Yemen airports. All murals are decorated with glass mosaic materials and ceramics on large wooden panels. The 1st axis: murals inspired by the ancient heritage of Yemeni architecture. The 2nd axis: Murals inspired by the picturesque Yemeni nature. The 3rd axis: murals inspired by the social and psychological state of the Yemeni human being. Conclusion: Many Yemeni institutions' buildings are decorated with murals, paintings, and other subjects related to that region or community. We note that the government of Yemen has taken care of this type of architecture, such as the art of murals. Recommendations: The mural art works are not suitable for placing in international airport halls except with basic points that are supposed to be taken into account in the mural work to be placed inside airports, where it is recommended to take into account the three main axes: the environment, the design, and the materials in which these murals were completed. Keywords: mural, airports, Yemeni airports, esthetics.

Abstract:
This paper highlights the fact that many anterior teeth requiring restoration are severely weakened, having wide flared canal spaces and thin dentinal walls, and are at a high risk of getting fractured. An 20 year old female patient reported with the complaint of unesthetic smile due to fracture and discolored tooth. She gave a history of trauma around 4-5 years back. This case was managed by the customization of fiber reinforced posts which has made a great impact on esthetics and redistribution of stresses along the radicular space and dentin tissue conservation. Thus modern techniques reflect a change from what was once considered prosthodontic procedure to one which marries endodontic principles with sound understanding of mechanical objectives.

Abstract:
This article analyzes how environmentalism reinscribed violent forms of state sovereignty in the disputed region of Kashmir in the aftermath of a decade-long uprising against Indian rule. After the return of an elected government, six years after its suspension in 1990, environmental restoration legitimized new forms of state and nature making in Kashmir. Nature rather than territory emerged as an arena of citizen activism, which further strengthened the state's ability to regulate the use and management of Kashmir's water resources. State and civic bodies deployed discourses of history and restoration to create new and imagined ecologies based on visions of nostalgia, commerce, and esthetics. By undermining place-based understandings of nature and ecology, discourses of environmental stewardship and conservation ended up fostering violent mechanisms of social and political control.

Abstract:
In implant treatment, the reduction and structural changes in the alveolar ridge that occur after tooth extraction limit the length, width, and placement position of the implant body, impair esthetics, and, in some cases, make implant placement difficult. To solve these problems, an alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) technique, which is performed simultaneously with tooth extraction, generally aims to promote bone regeneration and prevent alveolar ridge reduction by filling the extraction socket with bone graft material and then covering it with a barrier membrane to protect against the invasion of epithelial tissue. The extraction socket provides a favorable environment for bone regeneration throughout the healing period because the blood supply is abundant, and it effectively retains the bone graft material by using the remaining bone wall of the socket. In recent years, advances in bioengineering technology have led to the development of graft materials with various biological properties, but there is currently no clear consensus regarding the selection of surgical techniques and materials depending on the condition of the alveolar ridge. This review will provide a comprehensive survey of the evidence accumulated to date on ARP, present many cases according to the clinical situation, and discuss various treatment options.

Abstract:
Abstract Aim The aim of this report is to describe the relationship of some salivary parameters to dental erosion resulting from excessive citric acid consumption and present a description of a prosthetic approach used to restore the damaged dentition of a patient with severe erosion. Background The high consumption of dietary sources of acids can lead to erosion or the excessive wear of dental hard tissues. Erosion may be modified by salivary parameters such as flow rate, pH, and buffering capacity. Porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) restorations and composite resin veneers can be used successfully to restore impaired esthetics and eliminate tooth hypersensitivity in such cases. Results A 37-year-old woman with a history of excessive lemon consumption presented with a complaint of tooth hypersensitivity and the poor appearance of her dentition due to erosion. Stimulated and unstimulated salivary samples of the patient were evaluated for flow rate, pH, and buffering capacity before and after treatment. The pre-treatment values were found to be higher than post-treatment values. Stimulated samples showed an increase of salivary flow rate, pH, and buffering capacity. The measured parameters put forth the defensive potential of saliva against the acidic diet, and the salivary flow rate and buffering capacity decreased after reducing acidic consumption. The excessively eroded teeth were restored using PFM restorations whereas the superficially eroded teeth were restored with composite resins. Summary The introduction of acidic foods, beverages, or other agents can exceed the natural buffering capacity of saliva. The result is a lowering of the pH of the oral environment which can lead to erosion of enamel and dentin. Loss of tooth structure due to erosion can compromise the esthetics of the dentition and lead to hypersensitivity of the teeth. Teeth damaged by erosion can be successfully restored by composite resin or porcelain restorations and esthetics and function of dentition can be improved. Clinical Significance This report is a profound example of how the over consumption of acidic agents affect not only dental tissues but also the chemical balance of the oral environment as well as the oral habitat.

Abstract:
Michel Foucault was well known as an epistemologist, historicist, and historian of thought. His analyses of ancient culture are a crucial moment for his doctrine of the becoming of the subject. The Foucaultian version of the ancient legacy in modern and contemporary Western culture shows clearly its aspects in the opposition of Pierre Hadot’s doctrine. If Hadot accents the mystic mode of subjectivation, Foucault tends to the modes of dandyism and the esthetics of existence. At the same time, both of them belong to the same tradition in the history of the Western intellectual culture that traces the meaning of the human being in the perfectibility and concern of self. This article detects the roots of Foucaultian historicist position and origins of his conceptualization of the care of the self. The Foucaultian conceptualization mixes platonic concerns of the government of self, Nietzschean critics of Kantianism, and the Heideggerian approach to the philosophy of history, the sum of which in this case is radical historicism. As a result, Foucault proposes a contemporary version of the ancient practice of self and asserts the understanding of philosophy of the self. The author’s theses is that the focus of Foucauldian philosophy is the care of self as the basic mode of subjectivation in the political and ethical realms of the Western culture.

The article concerns some of the most important elements of I. Kant’s epistemology and its connections with earlier epistemological ideas, namely rationalism and empiricism. The history of dispute between rationalism (Descartes, Leibniz) and empiricism (Locke, Berkeley, Hume) is hereby shortly presented while Kant’s own philosophical achievements are suggested to be both alternative and synthesis of these. The main core of this paper is summary of basis of Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason; some most important categories are described: apriorism, synthetic and analytical judgements, knowledge a priori and a posteriori, main ideas of transcendental esthetics (two forms of pure intuition: time and space), main ideas of transcendental logic (forms of judgement and twelve categories). Also the meaning of Kant’s „copernican revolution” is presented as a turning point for classical German philosophy as well as for whole modern epistemology.

Abstract:
Nowadays, top-rated tourist attractions in Greece are ancient archaeological places and islands with blue-and-white esthetics. The country’s projected impression is greatly based on these two distinguished representations, chosen for their distinctive architecture scattered in the Greek landscape. Both imageries seem to be officially promoted in order to configure today’s national identity. The classical antiquities are related to the birthplace of European civilization, whereas the notion of the unspoilt archipelago with the whitewashed Cycladic houses works as a symbol of purity and eternity. The present article focuses on the analysis of these two Greek heritage scenarios and, subsequently, on their deconstruction. It aims to investigate the interaction between myth and reality and their role in forming the perception of contemporary Greece. The article argues that there is not a unique architectural history to come to light and, therefore, the highlighting of specific periods of it probably conceals intentions concerning patrimony management: selective excavation among the layers of history, historic preservation of selected buildings, and laws which impose the maintenance of certain findings or specific colors are some indicative signs. It also investigates the ways in which national heritage is directed and affected according to certain policies—local or foreign—that aim at a cultural investment in the world history.

Abstract:
One of the most contentious topics in dentistry has been altering the occlusal vertical dimension (OVD). When it becomes necessary to improve occlusal connections, accommodate planned restorations, and harmonize dentofacial esthetics, the OVD may need to be modified. Leonardo da Vinci made numerous observations and illustrations regarding facial proportions, specifically focusing on the lower third of the face. The calculation of the vertical dimension at occlusion involves numerous measurements of the face and body. There has been a great deal of progress in the techniques and materials used to measure vertical dimension, but little is known about an accurate assessment process for edentulous patients. Parafunctional habits that could alter the vertical dimension include abrasion, loss of teeth and molar support, and generalized attrition. It is still debatable whether or not to alter the vertical dimension of occlusion. Giving clinical criteria and subjective guidelines that a lab technician and physician should adhere to while treating patients with OVD anomalies is the aim of this paper.
