Beaverton Dentist Offers Clear Alternative To Braces

Dr. Paul Noland, dentist in Beaverton, is excited to offer ClearCorrect, an invisible alternative to metal braces

2013-03-03

BEAVERTON, OR, March 03, 2013 (Press-News.org) Dr. Paul Brooks Noland, dentist in Beaverton, is happy to be offering a lower cost and clear way to straighten patient's teeth. Invisible braces have increased in popularity because there are no wires or brackets and they can be removed when eating, brushing or flossing.

"I am glad that our practice is able to offer ClearCorrect as a braces alternative. They cost less and the aligners come in a series that move the patient's teeth a little at a time. We are always trying to be as patient-friendly as possible and this product aligns with our value. I hope that the patients look into this option as an alternative to braces," said Dr. Noland, cosmetic dentist in Beaverton.

ClearCorrect is personalized for each patient after the dentist takes impressions, photos and x-rays of the teeth. Once that process is complete, the records are sent to ClearCorrect along with a prescription. ClearCorrect then creates 3D models of the patient's teeth to develop a "treatment setup" representing the desired position of the teeth at the end of treatment.

Patients will wear "Phase Zero" aligners at first to get them used to wearing aligners right away. Once the patient and doctor are satisfied with Phase Zero, ClearCorrect maps out a plan for gradual adjustment throughout the treatment. Patients will wear the aligners all the time, except while eating, drinking and daily tooth care like brushing and flossing. Patients will visit the dentist periodically to check progress and receive the new phase of aligners until the patient eventually achieves their desired results.

How do bacteria clog medical devices? Very quickly

2013-03-02

A new study has examined how bacteria clog medical devices, and the result isn't pretty. The microbes join to create slimy ribbons that tangle and trap other passing bacteria, creating a full blockage in a startlingly short period of time. The finding could help shape strategies for preventing clogging of devices such as stents — which are implanted in the body to keep open blood vessels and passages — as well as water filters and other items that are susceptible to contamination. The research was published in Proceedings of the National ...

Turn trash into cash... and save energy

2013-03-02

Suppose you could replace "Made in China" with "Made in my garage." Suppose also that every time you polished off a jug of two percent, you would be stocking up on raw material to make anything from a cell phone case and golf tees to a toy castle and a garlic press. And, you could give yourself a gold medal for being a bona fide, recycling, polar-bear-saving rock star. Michigan Technological University's Joshua Pearce is working on it. His main tool is open-source 3D printing, which he uses to save thousands of dollars by making everything from his lab equipment to his ...

Short algorithm, long-range consequences

2013-03-02

CAMBRIGDE, MA -- In the last decade, theoretical computer science has seen remarkable progress on the problem of solving graph Laplacians — the esoteric name for a calculation with hordes of familiar applications in scheduling, image processing, online product recommendation, network analysis, and scientific computing, to name just a few. Only in 2004 did researchers first propose an algorithm that solved graph Laplacians in "nearly linear time," meaning that the algorithm's running time didn't increase exponentially with the size of the problem. At this year's ACM Symposium ...
