CONSERVATIVE TREATMENT OF CLASS II TREATMENT WITH EXTRAALVEOLAR TADs by Cristina Nucă, Ana Cristina Marinescu, Aureliana Caraine, Steliana-Gabriela Buștiuc

“…In this context, this paper argues the importance and efficiency of the extraalveolar TADs in skeletal class III anomalies orthodontic treatment. The article presents the results of using extraalveolar palatal, IZC and BSS screws for the non-surgical treatment of two class III patients, which declined any orthognatic surgery; in the first case palatal and Buccal Shelf Screws (BSS) were used and in the second one – InfraZygomatic Crest (IZC) and BSS screws were used. …”

A class of simple tracially AF C*-algebras by N. E. Livingston

“…The concept of a tracially AF (TAF) C*-algebra was introduced recently to aid in the classification of nuclear C*-algebrasHere, we construct and study a broad class of inductive-limit C*-algebras. We give a numerical condition which, when satisfied, ensures that the corresponding algebra in our construction has the TAF property. …”
