摘要:
An opto-mechanical platform for supporting truncated optical elements having at least one substantially flat side surface is disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the opto-mechanical platform may be realized as an apparatus for supporting truncated optical elements having at least one substantially flat side surface. Such an apparatus may comprise a platform having a substantially flat surface area for supporting the substantially flat side surface of the truncated optical elements. Such an apparatus may also comprise at least one substantially vertical wall formed on at least a portion of the platform for providing mechanical rigidity to the platform.

A technique for attaching an optical element to a structural element is disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the technique may be realized as an optical element mounting apparatus. Such an apparatus may comprise a base structure, a first mounting pad located on a first flexure formed in the base structure, a second mounting pad located on a second flexure formed in the base structure, and a third mounting pad located on the base structure, wherein the first, second, and third mounting pads support an optical element mounted thereon.

A hybrid temporary anchorage device implant system and method of use is disclosed. A temporary anchorage device (TAD) implant includes an external hex head, a cupped inner portion, a threaded core, a platform, and an implant portion. A first abutment is installed on the implant portion. The first abutment may include a graduated portion, a screw-retained healing collar, and a threaded portion. A second abutment may be installed over the first abutment. The second abutment may include a graduated head, a bulbous base, and an inner canal.

A dental appliance comprising a veneer, bridge, or crown with an integrated brace together formed as a single piece of material. The braces, crowns, veneers, and bridges may be printed with 3-dimesional (3D) software and SLA milling. Embodiments of the present invention provide the printed veneer, crown or bridge with an orthodontic portion (“brace” or “bracket”) that is all one piece. This can be used to move teeth orthodontically and provide a degree of esthetics. The appliance may include identification marks, which may guide placement of the appliance in a patient's mouth. The brace and identification marks can be removed, leaving the veneer, crown, or bridge behind.

摘要:
A method and a system for measuring the variation of volume and modulus during the solidification of a polymeric resin are provided, which use ultrasonic waves propagating through a sample and a coupling medium. On the one hand, the time of travel of the part of a signal that is reflected at the interface between the sample and the coupling medium back to the ultrasound transducer, gives the position of the interface between the sample and the coupling medium. This information may be used to determine the shrinkage of the sample. On the other hand, the time of travel of part of a signal that propagates through the thickness of the sample and then reflects from the bottom of the sample at the interface between the sample and a container in which it is contained may be used to determine the degree of stiffness of the sample. The time of travel is of the order of the microsecond and the change of thickness of the sample is of the order of a few hundred micrometers.

A dental appliance comprising a veneer, bridge, or crown with an integrated brace together formed as a single piece of material. The braces, crowns, veneers, and bridges may be printed with 3-dimensional (3D) software and SLA milling. Embodiments of the present invention provide the printed veneer, crown or bridge with an orthodontic portion (“brace” or “bracket”) that is all one piece. This can be used to move teeth orthodontically and provide a degree of esthetics. The appliance may include identification marks, which may guide placement of the appliance in a patient's mouth.
