Families' perceptions of community mental health programs for their relatives with a severe mental illness.

Realization that families are providing a major portion of the care for people with a severe and persistent mental illness has led to attempts to form an alliance with such families. Many professionals are aware that there is much cognitive distance between families and the professional community. Bridging this gap requires knowledge of the subjective experience of families. This paper reports the results of a study of the families' perspective of their experience with community mental health programs. Attention is given to the families' experience and needs; to changes in practice which address those needs; and to a variety of curriculum strategies for more adequately preparing future cadres of mental health professionals.

Effect on dimensional accuracy when reattaching fractured lone standing teeth of a cast.

1. Ninety-five percent of the variation in position of reattached lone standing incisor and premolar stone teeth was within the limits of physiologic tooth movement. 2. No significant differences resulted from the use of Class I or Class II stones, the technical experience of the operator, or the diameter of the neck of the tooth. 3. There were significant differences between Duco cement and Eastman 910 used between the tooth fragments, but none between Duco cement used between the tooth fragments and Eastman 910 used on the fracture line. However, with all three techniques, most of the changes were within the physiologic limits of healthy tooth movement.

Layered silicone rubber technique for flasking removable partial dentures.

A method for flasking removable partial dentures using a layered silicone rubber technique has been described. The silicone investment protects the stone teeth from fracture during removal of the removable partial denture from the investment. Then the occlusal changes can be accurately corrected following processing.

The styloid or "Eagle" syndrome: an unexpected consequence.

The development and pathogenesis of the elongated styloid process with a calcified stylohyoid ligament are reviewed and discussed. A case report is presented to demonstrate that, although the related symptoms may be mild, unless the patient is aware of the cause of the discomfort, a "cancerophobia" may cause great emotional distress.

Surveying.

Several systems for the survey and design for removable partial dentures are based on empiricism and misinformation. Presented here is a systematic approach to the basic requirements for precribing a prosthesis that will be received favorably by the patient.
