The particle size of the fillers in composite materials affects their physical and handling properties. Conventional composites have larger filler particles, while microfilled and hybrid composites have smaller ones. The text provides the typical ranges for each type of composite.

Physiology
A lesion in Broca's area leads to motor aphasia, also known as Broca's aphasia or expressive aphasia. This type of aphasia is characterized by difficulty in producing speech, particularly with grammatical errors and reduced vocabulary. Understanding of language is usually preserved, but the ability to form coherent sentences is impaired.

Due to the advanced state of the growth of brain this size at birth of the head of the infant is relatively large . only 1/8th of the bulk of the head forms the face at this age, whereas in the adult it forms 1/3rd to of the bulk. The face appears to be under the bulge of the forehead because the vault of the cranium is so large

EndodonticsCalcium ions in calcific bridges formed after calcium hydroxide treatment come from the blood supply through the remaining vital pulp tissue, not from the calcium hydroxide itself or surrounding dentin.

ProsthodonticsAccording to Monson's spheric theory of occlusion, each cusp and incisal edge conforms to a segment of a sphere, 8 inches in diameter, with its center in the region of the glabella. The glabella is the area of skin and underlying bone between the eyebrows and above the nose. This theory is an ideal model used as a reference in dental restorative procedures, particularly in prosthodontics and orthodontics.

The retromolar pad is a significant anatomical landmark in the mouth for denture construction. Several structures insert into or around this area:
The pterygomandibular raphe connects the buccinator and superior constrictor muscles, and its fibers are associated with the retromolar pad.
Fibers of the temporalis muscle often insert into the area of the retromolar pad.
The buccinator muscle fibers are also connected to this region via the raphe.
