    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of fabricating a dental splint for stabilizing mobile or unstable teeth or firmly rooted teeth to prevent orthodontic relapse. The fabricating of the dental splint includes the steps of: a patient's dental arch to determine if lingual reduction is required, creating a representative model of the patient's dental arch, manipulating the representative model to select a group of teeth to be included in the dental splint and to define the height and length of a one-piece extracoronal component customized to the dentition of a patient; fabricating the one-piece extracoronal component, dry fitting the fabricated one-piece extracoronal component to confirm proper fit, and adhering the fabricated one-piece extracoronal component to the mobile or unstable teeth, wherein the one-piece extracoronal component adheres to the lingual aspect of the teeth and appears substantially non-visible facially.

    Abstract: A rib bay platform for use in an aircraft rib bay, is adjustable in length (for example it comprises two telescopically mounted sections. The platform comprises a first end configured for mounting on a stringer of the rib bay (for example by an interference fit), and a second end configured for mounting on another stringer of the rib bay (for example on feet mounted on ball-and-socket joints). A method of operating in an aircraft rib bay comprises the steps of providing a rib bay platform of adjustable length; adjusting the length of the platform; mounting the platform between the two stringers; whereby a person may then operate inside the aircraft rib bay while being supported on the platform.

    Abstract: A dental splint, a method for fabricating and installing same is disclosed for stabilizing mobile or unstable teeth. The dental splint comprises a one-piece extracoronal component customized to the dentition of a patient, wherein the one-piece extracoronal component is adhered to the lingual aspect of the teeth and substantially non-visible facially. The fabricating of the dental splint for stabilizing mobile or unstable teeth or firmly rooted teeth to prevent orthodontic relapse comprising the steps of: examining patient's dental arch to determine if lingual reduction is required; creating a representative model of the patient's dental arch; manipulating said representative model to select a group of teeth to be included in the dental splint and to define the height and length of a one-piece extracoronal component customized to the dentition of a patient; fabricating said one-piece extracoronal component; dry fitting the fabricated one-piece extracoronal component to confirm proper fit; and adhering the fabricated one-piece extracoronal component to said mobile or unstable teeth, wherein said one-piece extracoronal component adheres to the lingual aspect of said teeth and appears substantially non-visible facially. In one embodiment, one-piece extracoronal component is bonded to a group of teeth which are all mobile or unstable. An alternative embodiment disclosed herein provides a one-piece extracoronal component bonded to a group of firmly rooted teeth to prevent orthodontic relapse.

    Abstract: A polishing apparatus comprising a base for affixing structures thereto, a drive wheel, a polishing wheel assembly, a polishing belt, and at least one routing wheel engaged with the polishing belt. The polishing wheel assembly includes an elongated arm including a distal end, and a rotatable polishing wheel supported at the distal end of the elongated arm. The polishing belt is made with an abrasive outer surface to perform the polishing, and an inner surface for engagement with the perimeters of the drive wheel and the polishing wheel. The routing wheel is engaged with the outer surface of the polishing belt, such that the contact arc of the polishing belt with the polishing wheel differs from an arc of the polishing wheel perimeter extending from a first tangent line between the drive wheel and the polishing wheel to a second tangent line between the drive wheel and the polishing wheel.
