The technique of nanoindentation, traditionally performed via dedicated indenters can now be reliably achieved using AFM instrumentation, enabling mechanical property determination at the nanoscale using the high spatial and force resolutions of the AFM.
An analysis of the underlying causes of these accidents shows some striking similarities (e.g. large quantities of a toxic chemical in storage, lack of instrumentation, inadequate mechanical systems, inadequate operating and maintenance procedures).
Soft tissue was removed before instrumentation and mechanical testing.
This can be accomplished though mechanical instrumentation and chemical irrigation.
Clinicians use solvents to soften the filling material, followed by mechanical instrumentation through hand, Hedström, or rotary NiTi retreatment files.
Irrigation is the only way to impact those areas of the root canal system that cannot be cleaned by mechanical instrumentation (Happasalo et al. 2010).
Computer assistance supplements mechanical instrumentation by the addition of measurements which are used to locate landmarks, direct surgical tools and thereby better align prosthetic components.
The robotic technique offers enhanced optics and mechanical instrumentation, which were designed to greatly improve visualization, exposure, and dissection in confined spaces such as the pelvic cavity.
Isotonic, electrolyte-containing distension media such as normal saline should be used with mechanical instrumentation and bipolar electrosurgery because it is less likely to cause hyponatraemia where there is fluid overload.
Isotonic electrolyte-containing distension media such as normal saline should be used with mechanical instrumentation and bipolar electrosurgery because they are less likely to cause hyponatraemia if fluid overload occurs.
