What's the difference between caries and cavies?

Caries


Definition:

  • (pl. ) of Carib
  • (n.) Ulceration of bone; a process in which bone disintegrates and is carried away piecemeal, as distinguished from necrosis, in which it dies in masses.

  • (10) Caries also developed in rats inoculated with reference S. mutans strains BHTR and FAIR (type b) that had been maintained in the laboratories for many years.
  • (11) In spite of low fluoride content in their water supply, the findings revealed a generally low prevalence of caries experience (DMFT 1.26).
  • (12) Immunologic deficiency of congenitally athymic rats can lead to a greater infection level with mutans streptococci and increased dental caries.
  • (13) It was shown that: although the oral hygiene level was very low and no dental treatments were performed, caries level was very low--although gingivitis rate was high, advanced periodontitis rate was low--the frequency of interincisive diastema (one subject out of 4 in the 15-19 age group), the progressive decline of tooth cutting, a traditional practice, in town people but the large extent of cola use (one adult out of two).

  • (20) Significantly more remineralization was observed in enamel samples treated with the toothpaste containing 2,500 ppm F compared to that containing 1500 ppm F. This result is consistent with the outcome of a recent caries clinical trial testing the same toothpastes and finding enhanced anticaries efficacy from the higher fluoride level.

Cavies


Definition:

  • (pl. ) of Cavy

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Twenty-five patients with metastatic (n = 9) or locally advanced or locoregional bladder cancer with a poor prognosis (n = 16) were treated with M-CAVI.
  • (2) On a swinging-table acceleration values were measured in Pirbright cavies; at first this was done under a defence reaction of the muscles, and in second experiment under maximum muscular relaxation.

  • (5) Substantial reduction in dentin permeability was obtained with all of the products tested (Microjoin, Cavi-Line, and Universal).
  • (6) Ultrasonic disruption of mycobacteria to be injected as "challenge" markedly increases the intensity of the consequent 24-48 h reaction and subsequent fibrosis in Freund adjuvant-sensitized cavies and has an apparently inhibiting effect on the extent of subsequent granuloma formation with marked reduction of the density of epithelioid cells.
  • (7) This in vitro study evaluated the pattern of dentine removal when an ultrasonically energized file (Cavi-Endo-size 25 file) was applied to flat surfaces of dentine under standardized conditions.
  • (8) The distal root canals of mandibular molars, divided into three groups of four teeth each, were prepared according to the following techniques: manual (serial), ultrasonic (Cavi-Endo), and automated (Canal Finder).
  • (9) Dentin Adhesit, Cavi-Line and Kavite Lak cavity varnishes were applied to the walls of prepared Class V cavities in fifty-two caries free extracted molar teeth before placing amalgam fillings.
  • (10) This study compared the effectiveness of a potassium oxalate solution (DDS) with three other cavity liners (Copalite, Cavi-Line, Prisma Universal Bond) and a no-liner control in reducing microleakage under amalgam restorations.
  • (11) The smear layer was somewhat reduced by the Cavi-Endo, using a syringe and needle, but without the integrated spray.
