    摘要: A dental and facial imaging device includes an adjustable arm, an image sensor mounted on a first end of the adjustable arm and an adjustable patient positioning arm mounted on a second end of the adjustable arm. A distance between the adjustable patient positioning arm and the image sensor is adjustable based on an adjustable length of the adjustable arm. A position indicator scale of the adjustable arm includes multiple notches for calibrating the distance between the adjustable patient positioning arm and the image sensor. The adjustable patient positioning arm includes a patient teeth supporting device and a patient chin rest which are positioned at a fixed coordinate reference relative to the image sensor to capture an image of a patient's teeth. The fixed coordinate reference corresponds to co-ordinates of multiple anatomical planes associated with the patient teeth supporting device and a patient chin rest relative to the image sensor.

    摘要: A shoe organizer unit, a method of using a shoe organizer unit, and a method for storing shoes in a plurality of shoe storing shelves of a shoe organizer unit are described. The shoe organizer unit includes a plurality of shoe storing shelves adapted to store shoes therein. A plurality of linear actuators moves the plurality of shoe storing shelves in a path within a cabinet. A controller manages operation of the linear actuators to move the shoes along the path. Transparent panels secure the shoes within the cabinet. Secure storage and retrieval of the shoes is controlled by electronics including a keypad, a push button and a shoe shelf identification code card printer. The shoe organizer unit provides for sterilization of the shoes stored and secure storing and retrieval of the shoes.

    摘要: A medicinal nanocomposite is provided. The medicinal nanocomposite includes 80 to 99 wt. % carrier particles of a porous silicate material selected from a group including mesoporous silica, silicalite, mesosilicalite, silver-incorporated silicalite, and silver-incorporated mesosilicalite, the carrier particles comprising a pore framework, 0.5 to 10 wt. % silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) disposed the pore framework, and 0.5 to 10 wt. % of a platinum-containing pharmaceutical compound disposed on at least one surface selected from an interior pore surface of the carrier particles, an exterior surface of the carrier particles, and a surface of the silver nanoparticles. The medicinal nanocomposite releases less than 10 mole % of the platinum-containing pharmaceutical compound after 60 to 84 hours at a pH of 4.5 to 7, based on an initial amount of the platinum-containing pharmaceutical compound present in the medicinal nanocomposite.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a dental procedure safety device including a face mask and a face shield attached to each other to form a modified face mask shield device, where the face shield overlaps in front of the face mask. The device further includes a dental dam frame including a plurality of nibs projecting outwardly from an outer perimeter of the dental dam frame for attachment of a dental dam membrane, such that a portion of the dental dam membrane is attached over an upper horizontal member of the dental dam frame. An attachment device, positioned over the portion of the dental dam membrane attached over the upper horizontal member, detachably connects to a rear surface of a lower end of the face mask, such that the modified face mask shield device is positioned in front of the attachment device.
