The Congress will take place in Iasi, 8 - 10, December, 2011, and is organised in collaboration with Romanian Dental Association for Education (ADRE) and the Faculty of Dental Medicine of the "Gr. T. Popa" University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Iasi, under the aegis of CMDR Iasi. The field of oral rehabilitation is the result of some experiences accumulation and competences in dental medicine that assumes access to new concepts and technologies which makes it one of the most dynamic brunches of medicine. The Romanian Society for Oral Rehabilitation supports progress in this field and offers to all interested parties its own means of promotion but also education in dental medicine. The Romanian Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, the post-graduate courses, the European Programmes and the Centre for Specialisation and Resource Formation in Oral Rehabilitation, all come to support and prepare for obtaining competences in different fields of dental medicine. At its V-th edition, this Congress organised by ASRRO already demonstrated a level of maturity, supported by the subject which is a call for rigour, competence, in one word, excellence. We hope that the new and pleasant opportunity to meet again on Moldavian ground will contribute to a fruitful experience and knowledge exchange among high level specialists and practitioners attending this event. We warmly invite you to our congress with the conviction and with the firm believe that we can actively contribute to enhancement of communication and cooperation in this area of common interest.

T. Popa" University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Iași, Romania ABSTRACT If you don’t replace a lateral missing tooth, you will be looking at a series of changes in the entire mouth. You may have the migration if adiacent teeth and of the antagonist tooth, changing the occlusion, also periodontal problems and cavities. In every one of these cases the prosthetic treatment becomes more difficult. In today’s literature we don’t have depicted all the consequences of alveolar bone loss. The purpose of this study was to determine the negative modifications registered after the tooth removal. Using radiographic investigations, we calculate the distance between the edentulous’s space and adiacent teeth to estimate the changes in the teeth position. Key words: alveolar bone loss INTRODUCTION result we have in all the cases an average of Loss of space was significantly associated 6.9 months.

  • Policy and Procedure #610
    09/2008 C-18. WORKING WITH NANOMATERIALS I. PURPOSE AND SCOPE At this time, there are no published regulations for safe work practices with nanomaterials, nor for controlling release of manufactured nanomaterials into the environment. Manufactured nanomaterials may pose unusual risks to human health due to their unique composition, reactivity, size, and ability to cross cell membranes [Nel 2006]. Preliminary studies indicate that engineered nanomaterials may exhibit markedly higher toxicity compared with macro scale materials of similar chemical composition. Current information about environmental, health, and safety risks associated with exposure to engineered nanomaterials is extremely limited. Until more definitive conclusions are made regarding the occupational and environmental risks of nanomaterials, interim precautionary work practices will be established and followed. Risk assessments and control strategies for nanotechnology research at the NCI-Frederick will be based on the most current toxicological data, exposure assessments, and exposure control information that is available1. II. POLICY It is the policy of the National Cancer Institute at Frederick (NCI-F) that all work with nanoparticles and material containing nanoparticles be conducted in a safe and responsible manner that protects NCI-F employees, the public, and the environment. Safe work practices are generally based on an understanding of the hazards associated with the composition of a material. Since the toxicity and hazards associated with nanomaterials is uncertain, nanomaterials will be handled using the same precautions currently used at NCI-F when handling toxic materials or materials of unknown toxicity (Chemical Hygiene Plan, Chapter C-1, EHS Operations Manual). III. DEFINITIONS Nanomaterials - Nanomaterials are defined as having at least one dimension less than 100 nanometers (nm; a nanometer is 10-9 meters) and typically are engineered to have unique properties which make them desirable for medical or commercial applications.

  • Principles for the Oversight of Nanotechnologies and Nanomaterials
    Principles for the Oversight of Nanotechnologies and Nanomaterials NanoAction In January 2007, the International Center for Technology Assessment and Friends of the Earth co-hosted the first Nanotechnology NGO Strategy Summit in Washington D.C., bringing together public interest, labor, civil society, environmental, women’s health, and citizen-based grassroots organizations from across North America to discuss and agree upon foundational principles for nanotechnology oversight and assessment. Over the next six months, participants developed principles, spearheaded by the International Center for Technology Assessment’s NanoAction project. This document is the result. Nearly 70 groups from six continents now have endorsed it. Principles for the Oversight of 2 Nanotechnologies and Nanomaterials Principles for the Oversight of Nanotechnologies and Nanomaterials The undersigned, a broad coalition of civil society, public interest, environmental and labor organizations concerned about various aspects of nanotechnology’s human health, environmental, social, ethical, and other impacts, submit the following Declaration, Principles for the Oversight of Nanotechnologies and Nanomaterials. Principles for the Oversight of Nanotechnologies and Nanomaterials Introduction Governments, universities, and businesses around the world are racing to commercial- ize nanotechnologies and nanomaterials. Already, hundreds of consumer products either contain nanomaterials (nano-scale chemicals) in the finished product, or are made using nanotechnologies. At the same time, mounting evidence indicates that this new materials rev- olution poses significant health, safety, and environmental hazards as well as profound social, economic, and ethical challenges. Those speeding the commercialization of nanotechnolo- gies have barely begun the research needed both to clarify and reduce risks and to develop urgently needed ethical, legal and regulatory oversight mechanisms.

  • Societal Implications — Maximizing Benefit for Humanity
    About the Nanoscale Science, Engineering, and Technology Subcommittee The Nanoscale Science, Engineering, and Technology (NSET) Subcommittee is the interagency body responsible for coordinating, planning, implementing, and reviewing the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI). As the active interagency coordinating body, the NSET Subcommittee establishes the goals and priorities for the NNI and develops plans, including appropriate interagency activities, aimed at achieving those goals. The Subcommittee also promotes a balanced investment across all of the agencies, so as to address all of the critical elements that will support the development and utilization of nanotechnology. The National Nanotechnology Coordination Office (NNCO) provides technical and administrative support to the NSET Subcommittee and supports the subcommittee in the preparation of multi-agency planning, budget, and assessment documents, including this report. For more information on NSET, see http://www.nano.gov/html/about/nsetmembers.html. For more information on NNI and NNCO, see http://www.nano.gov. About this document This document is the report of a workshop held under the auspices of the National Science Foundation and the NSET Subcommittee on December 3-5, 2003, at the National Science Foundation in Arlington, VA. The primary purpose of the workshop was to examine trends and opportunities in nanoscience and nanotechnology toward maximizing benefit to humanity, and also potential risks in nanotechnology development.
