Authors: Faeze Zamani Zade, Faeze Razm, Mehekk Repaswal
Abstract:
New technology such as laser and alloys have greatly contributed to the orthodontic industry. In this article, we will investigate and compare two important scales in orthodontics: Arch wire and bonding system; Gummetal is a new wire successfully used in clinical application in orthodontic, and their differences with other arch wire was significance. Background: Currently, finding the most effective method to treat a complex case in orthodontics in such a way that it has the least damage to the enamel tissue and the most efficiency has been one of the daily issues in the orthodontic industry, which has attracted the attention of dentists, orthodontists, and also patients. Methods: The review of article is made up by searching in different journals with related topics, we analyzed different subjects in this review. Results: The number of literary references that we identified during the literature in this review is 56. After excluding publications we removed the topics they weren’t match, the total number of articles included in the systematic review was determined to be 13. Conclusions: The flexibility of Gummetal compared to other archwires is indicative of the unique difference of this product with the rest of the products. It is correct to use a metal bracket, which is less aesthetically pleasing than a ceramic bracket, but in this article, we are looking for finding the best and most effective method for treating complex cases, using laser and ceramic zirconium for brackets and using Gummetal will increase the efficiency of our braces system.Keywords: archwire, Gummetal, metal bracket, methods, zirconium ceramic, semi-material
Procedia PDF Downloads 33 An Empirical Investigation of Relationships between Consumer Involvement and Advertisement Effectiveness
Authors: Nasim Karami Mal Amiri, Farhad Razm Azma
Abstract:
Parts of consumer involvement in regards to one product are related to advertisement strategies. Different consumer involvement has different answers to the effectiveness of advertisement. This study has divided the market considering the characteristics and relationship between consumer involvement and the effectiveness of advertisement. The results of this study show consumer involvement which does affect parts of marketing. A positive and direct relationship among consumer involvement and the eventual effectiveness of advertisement has been shown. A great amount of consumer involvement is directly related to advertisement effectiveness. Therefore, consumer involvement is a critical factor in advertisement strategies.Keywords: consumer involvement, advertisement effectiveness, strategy, effective marketing

Authors: Sina Mahdavi, Faeze Noruzpur, Aysuda Noruzpur
Abstract:
This paper proposes a high linear, low power and wideband Variable Gain Amplifier (VGA) with a direct current (DC) gain range of -10.2dB to 60.7dB. By applying the proposed idea to the folded cascade amplifier, it is possible to achieve a 71dB DC gain, 35MHz (-3dB) bandwidth, accompanied by high linearity and low sensitivity as well. It is noteworthy that the proposed idea can be able to apply on every differential amplifier, too. Moreover, the total power consumption and unity gain bandwidth of the proposed VGA is 1.41mW with a power supply of 1.8 volts and 4.37GHz, respectively, and 0.8pF capacitor load is applied at the output nodes of the amplifier. Furthermore, the proposed structure is simulated in whole process corners and different temperatures in the region of -60 to +90 ºC. Simulations are performed for all corner conditions by HSPICE using the BSIM3 model of the 180nm CMOS technology and MATLAB software.Keywords: variable gain amplifier, low power, low voltage, folded cascade, amplifier, DC gain

Authors: Faeze omid, Morteza Banakar
Abstract:
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on global health and healthcare systems, including oral health. The lockdown measures implemented in many countries have led to changes in oral health behaviors, access to dental care, and the delivery of dental services. However, the extent of these changes and their effects on oral health outcomes remains unclear. This systematic review aims to synthesize the available evidence on the state of oral health after the COVID-19 lockdown. Methods: We conducted a systematic search of electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science) and grey literature sources for studies reporting on oral health outcomes after the COVID-19 lockdown. We included studies published in English between January 2020 and March 2023. Two reviewers independently screened the titles, abstracts, and full texts of potentially relevant articles and extracted data from included studies. We used a narrative synthesis approach to summarize the findings. Results: Our search identified 23 studies from 12 countries, including cross-sectional surveys, cohort studies, and case reports. The studies reported on changes in oral health behaviors, access to dental care, and the prevalence and severity of dental conditions after the COVID-19 lockdown. Overall, the evidence suggests that the lockdown measures had a negative impact on oral health outcomes, particularly among vulnerable populations. There were decreases in dental attendance, increases in dental anxiety and fear, and changes in oral hygiene practices. Furthermore, there were increases in the incidence and severity of dental conditions, such as dental caries and periodontal disease, and delays in the diagnosis and treatment of oral cancers. Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic and associated lockdown measures have had significant effects on oral health outcomes, with negative impacts on oral health behaviors, access to care, and the prevalence and severity of dental conditions. These findings highlight the need for continued monitoring and interventions to address the long-term effects of the pandemic on oral health.Keywords: COVID-19, oral health, systematic review, dental public health
