  2. Alveolar osteitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alveolar_osteitis

    The most common location of dry socket: in the socket of an extracted mandibular third molar (wisdom tooth). Since alveolar osteitis is not primarily an infection, there is not usually any pyrexia (fever) or cervical lymphadenitis (swollen glands in the neck), and only minimal edema (swelling) and erythema (redness) is present in the soft tissues surrounding the socket.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durag

    The character of Leon Black on Curb Your Enthusiasm is famous for wearing his durag on the show. [16] In 2021, contestant Symone wore an outfit with a durag, which extended to a train, on the thirteenth season of RuPaul's Drag Race. [17] The rapper Baby Keem, with a feature from Travis Scott, released a single in 2021 with the name "durag ...

  4. Pressure-sensitive adhesive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_adhesive

    Adhesives may be broadly divided in two classes: structural and pressure-sensitive. To form a permanent bond, structural adhesives harden via processes such as evaporation of solvent (for example, white glue), reaction with UV radiation (as in dental adhesives), chemical reaction (such as two part epoxy), or cooling (as in hot melt).

  5. Zinc oxide eugenol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc_oxide_eugenol

    For persons with a dry socket as a complication of tooth extraction, packing the dry socket with a eugenol-zinc oxide paste on iodoform gauze is effective for reducing acute pain. [3] The placement of a ZOE "temporary" for a few to several days prior to the placement of the final filling can help to sedate the pulp.

  6. Socket preservation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socket_Preservation

    Socket preservation or alveolar ridge preservation is a procedure to reduce bone loss after tooth extraction. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] After tooth extraction, the jaw bone has a natural tendency to become narrow , and lose its original shape because the bone quickly resorbs , resulting in 30–60% loss in bone volume in the first six months. [ 3 ]

  7. SN 441011 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN_441011

    After the year 2016, only sockets type 13 with a recessed socket hole may be brought onto the market. From the Type 12 proposed in 1937 [ 5 ] and introduced in 1953, the international standard IEC 60906-1 was derived in 1986, on which only the national standards of Brazil (NBR 14136 or Type N) and South Africa (SANS 164-2) are based.

  8. Periodontal fiber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodontal_fiber

    Apical fibers are found radiating from cementum around the apex of the root to the bone, forming base of the socket or alveolus. Interradicular fibers are only found between the roots of multirooted teeth, such as premolars and molars. They extend from radicular cementum to interradicular alveolar bone.

  9. Electrical wiring in North America - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_wiring_in_North...

    Edison-base lamp sockets (called screw shell devices in the NEC) are required to have the neutral conductor attached to the outer screw shell [NEC 200.10(C)]. [5] In actual practice, the neutral terminal is silver colored, the line and load terminals are brass or (rarely) painted black), and the grounding screw is usually colored green.
