The effect of relaxation music in reducing symptoms of dental anxiety
...Show More Authors

Many behavioral researchers pointed out the importance of relaxation techniques in the treatment of different psychological disorders where find  the importance of these techniques in reducing anxiety and stress and the resulted of behaviors and habits, with the development of these techniques are being used to gain public health, whether mental health or physical or mentality, and one of these techniques is music therapy that reduces tension and anxiety and operates a state of relaxation, which is used in the treatment of  patients of dental clinic.                        

Research problem:

 Research problem Manifested in finding therapeutic way into account the psychological aspect (anxiety and stress)forClients dental clinic and to the extent that is appropriate and importance of physical aspect, because taking the physical aspect and focus on in therapy alone may not be enough as long as the psychological factor that causes the disorder continues in effect.

Importance of research and the need for it:

 We can clarify the following indicators that demonstrate the importance of this research and the need to:

  1. Is an attempt to highlight the importance of relaxing music to relieve anxiety when dental treatment.
  2. Although the capacity and the large subject with its importance but the Arab Research and Studies and local communities in this area are a few when compared to the importance that has in many countries of the world. So to address this issue would increase the theoretical and practical knowledge in the present time and have a new addition to the library in Iraqi which has shortage in such studies

 

 

  Aim of study:

The current research aimed to achieve the following objectives:

There are nosignificant differences on (0.05) level in (pluses rate, the high (Systolic) and the low(Diastolic) blood pressure) to thegroup that listen to relaxationmusic and the group that don’t listen to relaxation music during treatment.

Border search:

 The Current work is limited to adult clients from specialized dental clinic in A Specialized health center for Dentistry in AL ElWia, the side of Rusafa in the city of​​Baghdad, for the period from10\3\ 2011 to 10\6\2011 and from both sexes.

Methods and subjects:

ASample consistsof200clients(males and females) were review patients (100 patients to listen to relaxationmusic and 100 without listening to it).

  1. Divided the sample into two groups and will be measuredblood pressure and pulse rate for both groups.

 

Results:

     The results showed the existence of significant differences in blood pressure tension and heart rate among the first group that did not listen to music and the second group listened to music, as explained in detail in Chapter IV of the search. Through results the researchersconcluded that the importance of using relaxation music to relax patients which reduces the severity of anxiety and tension existing in many clients of dental clinics, and it is recommended to cooperation of psychiatrists clinicians, dentists and patients, as well as educate dentists and patients to benefit from psychosocial therapeuticprograms such as behavioral therapy and relaxation using soft music.

 The research came out at the end a number of recommendations and suggestions.

The effect of different curing distances on the microhardness of flowable bulk-fill composite materials
...Show More Authors

Background: The microhardness of a composite resin is a vital parameter that is used to determine its clinical behavior. Measuring the microhardness of a composite resin has been used as an indirect method to assess its degree of conversion and extent of polymerization. The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of three curing distances (0, 2, and 4 mm) on the microhardness of the top and bottom surfaces of three types of flowable bulk-fill composite resins (smart dentin replacement, Opus bulk fill flow, and Tetric N). Material and method: Sixty-three specimens from the three types of composite resins (n=21) were fabricated using Teflon mold with a 4mm depth and a 5 mm internal diameter and cured for 20 seconds. For e

Studying the Effect of Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles Prepared on the Surface of Poly Methyl Methacrylate
...Show More Authors

          In this paper, magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO NPS) have been prepared and characterized and its concentration effect has been studied on polymers surface (MgO NPS). The results showed that the degradation of poly methyl methacrylate increased when using such metal oxide. The results also showed that the metal oxide increased the degradation of poly methyl methacrylate. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy were used to study the morphological characteristics and size of nano MgO particles analysis.  Films were prepared by mixing the different masses of MgO NPS (0.025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.4) % with a polymer solution ratio (W/V) 7 %.

The Effect of Walled Nano-Carbon on the Physical, Thermal and Mechanical Properties of Epoxy
...Show More Authors

The physical, the thermal and the mechanical properties of Nano-composites, that consisted of Polyprime EP epoxy that reinforced by multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), have been studied. Various loading ratios, 0.1, 0.5, and 1 wt. %of MWCNT shave been infused into epoxy by a magnetic stirrer and then the hardener mixed with the mthat supplied with the epoxy. All sample shave been cutting using CNC machine. Tensile test, three-point bending, hardness tests, lee's disk, differential scanning calorimetry, water absorption and dielectric and electrical conductivity test were utilized on unfilled, MWCNT-filled epoxy to identify the loading effect on the properties of materials. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to determine the

The effect of volume fraction on the fatigue strength of unsaturated polyester / glass fiber composite
...Show More Authors

 In this work polymeric composites were done from unsaturated polyester as a matrix reinforced with glass fiber type (E-glass) with two different volume fraction 20% & 40%. Fatigue tests showed that the number of fatigue cycles to failure limit for samples reinforced with uniform (woven Roving 0-90°) E-glass fiber and random (continuous fibers) with volume fraction 40% more than that for the same samples with volume fraction 20%. Also the fatigue results showed that the uniform samples failed with fatigue cycles more than that of random.

The Effect of Alternative Resource and Refuge on the Dynamical Behavior of Food Chain Model
...Show More Authors

This article examines and proposes a dietary chain model with a prey shelter and alternative food sources. It is anticipated that mid-predators' availability is positively correlated with the number of refuges. The solution's existence and exclusivity are examined. It is established that the solution is bounded. It is explored whether all potential equilibrium points exist and are locally stable. The Lyapunov approach is used to investigate the equilibrium points' worldwide stability. Utilizing a Sotomayor theorem application, local bifurcation is studied. Numerical simulation is used to better comprehend the dynamics of the model and define the control set of parameters.

The Dynamics of a Tritrophic Leslie-Gower Food-Web System with the Effect of Fear
...Show More Authors

The avoidance strategy of prey to predation and the predation strategy for predators are important topics in evolutionary biology. Both prey and predators adjust their behaviors in order to obtain the maximal benefits and to raise their biomass for each. Therefore, this paper is aimed at studying the impact of prey’s fear and group defense against predation on the dynamics of the food-web model. Consequently, in this paper, a mathematical model that describes a tritrophic Leslie-Gower food-web system is formulated. Sokol-Howell type of function response is adapted to describe the predation process due to the prey’s group defensive capability. The effects of fear due to the predation process are considered in the first two levels
