ABSTRACT
Background:Gingival recession is the one of the widespread mucogingival deformity and should be treated at its most primitive recognition. Exposed root surfaces are more likely to develop root sensitivity, root caries, cervical abrasions and post esthetic problems. Amid innumerable procedures, laterally positioned pedicle graft (LPG) is extensively used efficaciously to conceal recession defects. The main advantages of thelaterally positioned pedicle graft is, it produces excellent esthetic results as it has good vascularity of the flap and ability to cover the denuded surfaces. Thus,the present case report describes the use of lateral pedicle graft technique in an isolated gingival recession on mandibular incisor.
ABSTRACT
Introduction: Internet is one of the fastest growing media for Human Resources and Development (HRD). Computer has become an essential part of our Activities of Daily Livings (ADLs) at one hand and other hand, prolonged computer usage has increases the risk of occupational hazards. Prolonged Static work at computer system is a causative factor for poor postural ergonomic, structural derangements and dysfunction commonly at neck, shoulder and low back structures to develop functional limitation and progressively functional disabilities. The basic health education (HE) by means of ergonomic advises and exercise therapy may have efficacy to promote, prevent and cure for such FDs. However, internet itself can be a mode of HE system to be provided at workplace to cut the time & cost together. Purpose of Study: To find the efficacy of IBM for FDs of the computer users. Materials: Internet supported computer, web-site (www.ptmovements.com), web pages, basic health assessment form, Self Reported FD Questioners, Neck Disability Index (NDI) & Back Pain Functional Scale (BPFS), Study Design: Experimental Clinical Trial Methodology: 1256 computer users (M=867) participated online and assess for inclusive & exclusive criterions. Internet based self reported FDs questioners used to assess FDs in prior and post to two weeks of tailor made treatment program. Data Analysis: significance of FDs and impact of IBM on FDs was analyzed with SPSS -17, LOS set at 0.05 or CI 95 % Result: mild to moderate prevalence of FDs was higher neck & shoulder as compared to low back structures. The IBM has shown efficiency to reduce the level of FDs at NDI, and BPFS. Discussion: The internet based health education (IBHE) is well possible to deliver and to reduce the FDs. The advantage of time & cost effective approach in IBM has facilitated keen interest among computer users. Conclusion: The IBHE is well efficient and prospective to develop scopes of “workplace wellness” to promote, prevents, and cures for occupational diseases & disorders. E-health education has great prospectus in field of modern medicine.
