Floyd A. Peyton, head of the dental materials department. Investigators are constantly at work cutting extracted human teeth into sections, exposing them to tests and then attempting to develop new materials of superior quality for replacing tissue lost due to decay or accidents. Engineering and mechanical principles are applied in this type of research because, as Prof. Pey- ton puts it, "'We are dealing with the body's food crushing machin- ery, the teeth." In addition to comfort, it is the goal of these researchers to find materials that can be inserted, more quickly and conveniently in- to the patient's mouth. Special Projects Dental Materials Testing Labor- atory is currently conducting eight special research projects, six of which are being sponsored by the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Public Health Service. Coun't Basle Concert Set Prof. Peyton compares the ac- tion of teeth when chewing to that of a giant press. Because of the similarity, artificial tissue replace- ment naterials are tested in a small compression and tension machine. He estimates that the bite of a husky person "may exert up to 200 pounds, of pressure." A less rugged person may have a normal bite presure of 50 pounds and the average Is "probably between 50 and 75 pounds." I.ocation of the tooth in the mouth is important in determin- ing tooth pressure. Prof. Peyton adds that the pressure capacity dependĀ§ on the dimensions and area of the tooth. Withstands Pressure A normal human tooth may be able to withstand pressure of from 40,000 to 60,000 pounds per square inch without breaking. Dental materials researchers are working with materials:( used in restorative dentistry such as gold alloys, silver alloys, plastics, porce- lains, cements, and impression ma- terials. They also work with denture materials such as acrylic, porce- lain, and chrome alloys; and with orthodontic materials such as sil- ver and gold. Researchers are interested in changes in dimension of these materials when introduced into the patient's mouth. They are concerned with the snugness of the fitting and the dimension re- lationships between restorative materials and live teeth. Hot coffee or cold water can be painful when a filling or other re- storative material is not compat- ible with the reactions of natural tooth tissue. They are also interested in the hardness and strength of these materials. Will they last and will they react in the same way as' normal tissue? Use Water Spray One of the valuable results of recent research in Prof. Peyton's department was the determination that using a water spray to cool the dental drill will reduce the patient's pain. For experimental purposes and instead of subjecting patients to "torture," they took an extracted tooth, mounted it, made a cut with the standard drill, and meas- ured the heat generated. Researchers found that the water spray reduced the frictional heat to a comfortable level for the patient. 'Filling' Teeth Sections of human teeth are be- ing "filled," then exposed to heat and cold, in order to learn the best and most compatible "substances for use in restoring teeth. Hook shaped wires and clasps which anchor partial dentures come in for their share of engi- neering tests, too. On a machine which flexes short lengths of the wire used for clasps in partial dentures, they are ex- posed to millions of "bends" or flexures within a few hours. Flexures duplicate the flexing of clasps in the mouth with each bite. One of Prof. Peyton's students found that an average person makes about 5,000,000 "chews" per year. Gold-Old 'Standby' Prof. Peyton stated that of all: the filling materials available to- day, the old stand-by, gold alloy, has not lost any of its importance over the years. "Some persons prefer other sub- stances for aesthetic reasons," he says, "but it is a mighty fine restorative material from practi- cally all aspects." He says that much work is being, done on improving plastics for restorative purposes, as some of the early plastics were unsuitable colorwise. I PROF. DAVIS: Underprivileged -Pupils Lack A ttention in Class Prof. Allison Davis of the Uni- versity of Chicago stressed the importance of training socially underprivileged children in a lec- ture yesterday. His talk, "Reaching the Masses of Pupils," highlighted the last general session of the 28th annual Summer Education Conference under the auspices of the School of Education. The conference be- gan Tuesday. Prof. Davis stated that lower Administration Institute Meets Two sessions of the Third An- nual Institute on College Admin- istration were held yesterday in the Michigan Union. General theme was "Student Personnel Administration." A spe- cial luncheon featured an address by Prof. Algo D. Henderson, of the School of Education. Two more sessions at 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. today at the Michigan Union will cover the theme "De- fining and Implementing Pur- poses." class children and their teachers are separated by a forest of im- penetrable cultural barriers which make real communication between the two extremely difficult. To break down this barrier, he said, it is necessary that the teacher understand the child's language, discover the pupil's at- titude toward the teacher, and overcome his own biases. Turning to' the problems of the middle class child, Prof. Davis said, "Middle class culture places great emphasis on the distant re- wards of a career or profession." This puts children under pressure to obtain the arbitrary goals set up for them or face the disgrace of failure.. He pointed out a behavior differ- ence between the classes. The low- er class child can fight when he is angry and does not have to "accept the false peace" which the parents of middle class child- ren impose. In conclusion, Prof. Davis vigor- ously criticized today's curriculum as barrier to understanding on the basis that they force children "simply to miemorize.", MUSICAL MDSE., CAR SERVICE, ACCESSORIES RADIOS, REPAIRS H F EUROPEAN CARS We service all foreign cars.
