A comparative study of trends in dental assistant utilization among dentists in Grand Rapids, Michigan and Boston, MassachusettsLeGallee, Bunny L. January 1985 (has links)
Thesis (M.Sc.)--Boston University, Henry M. Goldman School of Graduate Dentistry, 1985 (Dental Public Health). / Includes bibliographical references: (leaves 70-74). / The purpose of this study was to determine whether the changes currently evolving in the delivery of dental care are affecting the way in which dental assistants are being utilized and, if so, whether the training offered in accredited dental assisting programs is meeting the needs and demands of the system. It was intended that the results of this study would be useful in determining future directions for dental assisting as a career, and in invoking changes in dental assisting education to improve satisfaction of both dentists and dental assistants.
The research was conducted via survey questionnaires which were mailed to 300 randomly selected dentists in Grand Rapids, Michigan and Boston, Massachusetts. The survey items focused on the dentists’ backgrounds and attitudes toward dental assistant utilization; numbers and credentials of dental assistants employed; and current utilization patterns of dental assistants. The results were summarized with descriptive statistics, frequencies and distributions, and analyzed using chi-square and tests of correlation. It appeared that changes in dental education and in modes of delivery of dental services had little effect on patterns of dental assistant utilization and, moreover, that the emphasis of the A.D.A. accreditation standards for dental assisting education programs was congruent with the demands of the surveyed dental practitioners. It was further apparent that although dentists had positive attitudes toward dental assistant utilization, they appeared to be unaware of the status of state regulations governing utilization of dental auxiliaries, and generally underutilize the skills of trained assistants.
This paper addresses these and other issues of concern to dental assistants, dental assisting educators and dentists. The results of this study provide a foundation for many areas of future research.

Previous issue date: 2017-07-28 / Com o objetivo de avaliar a produção de alface ‘Grand Rapids’ a partir de sementes
orgânicas e convencionais sob adubação orgânica com vermicomposto bovino em
ambiente protegido, tomando-se como base os índices de recomendação da
Comissão de Química e de Fertilidade do Solo – RS/SC (2004) foi desenvolvido um
experimento no ano de 2016, no período de 26/07/2016 a 30/08/2016, a contar da
data do transplante das mudas. Utilizou-se uma estufa plástica, modelo capela, na
área experimental da Faculdade de Agronomia Eliseu Maciel da UFPel, no Campus
Capão do Leão, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. Escolheu-se a cultivar ‘Grand Rapids’,
empregando-se dois tipos de sementes: semente orgânica (S1) e semente
convencional (S2), submetida à adubação com vermicomposto bovino (VB), da
seguinte maneira: T1 (0,5 ROLAS VB); T2 (1,0 ROLAS VB) e T3 (1,5 ROLAS VB). O
experimento foi realizado em delineamento em blocos ao acaso. As variáveis
estudadas foram: fitomassa fresca e seca da parte aérea, fitomassa fresca e seca de
raiz, diâmetro da planta, área foliar, número de folhas, comprimento de raiz,
densidade de raiz, razão parte aérea e sistema radicular,bem como os
macronutrientes através de análises laboratoriais. O vermicomposto bovino utilizado
como adubo favorece a produção adequada da cultura da alface ‘Grand Rapids’,
quando da aplicação de 1,0 e 1,5 vezes a recomendação da Comissão de
Fertilidade do Solo para o RS/SC (2004). Independentemente da origem da semente
de alface ‘Grand Rapids’, a resposta quanto à adubação com vermicomposto bovino,
no que tange aos aspectos relacionados à comercialização, foi satisfatória, pois
atendeu a recomendação para o diâmetro de planta e área foliar. O teor de NO3
- nas
folhas da alface ‘Grand Rapids’ com a aplicação de vermicomposto bovino, está
dentro dos padrões da FAO para o acúmulo em folhosas. O efeito residual do
vermicomposto bovino no solo, após a colheita da alface ‘Grand Rapids’, permite dar
continuidade a um próximo cultivo sem necessidade de adição de adubo. O
comportamento da cultivar ‘Grand Rapids’ com sementes orgânicas e
convencionais, sob adubação orgânica é similar. / With objective to evaluate the production of 'Grand Rapids' lettuce from organic and
conventional seeds under organic fertilization with bovine manure vermicompost in
polyethylene greenhouse, based on the recommendation indexes of the Comissão
de Química e Fertilidade do Solo - RS / SC (2016) was developed an experiment in
the year 2016 in the period from 07/26/2016 to 08/30/2016, a deposit of data of the
transplant of the seedlings. A polyethylene greenhouse, model chapel, was used in
the experimental area of the Faculdade de Agronomia Eliseu Maciel, Universidade
Federal de Pelotas, Capão do Leão Campus, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. A 'Grand
Rapids' cultivar was chosen, using two types of seeds: organic seed (S1) and
conventional seed (S2), submitted to bovinemanure vermicompost (BV) fertilization in
the previous way: T1 (0,5 ROLAS VB); T2 (1,0 ROLAS VB) and T3 (1,5 ROLAS VB).
The experiment was carried out in a randomized block design. The variables studied
were: above ground biomass fresh and dry, fresh and dry root phytomass, plant
diameter, leaf area, leaf number, root length, root density, shoot root system and
macronutrients, crosses of laboratorial efforts. The bovine manure vermicompost
used as fertilizer favors the adequate production of the 'Grand Rapids' lettuce crop,
when applying the 1.0 and 1.5 times the recommendation of the Comissão de
Fertilidade do Solo RS/SC (2004). Regardless of the origin of the 'Grand Rapids'
lettuce seed, the response regarding fertilizer application with bovine manure
vermicompost was satisfactory, as it met the recommendation for plant diameter and
leaf area. The NO3
- content in 'Grand Rapids' lettuce leaves with the application of
bovine vermicompost, is within the FAO standards for hardwood accumulation. The
residual effect of bovine manure vermicompost on the soil, after harvesting the
'Grand Rapids' lettuce, allows the continuation of a next crop without the addition of
fertilizer. The behavior of the 'Grand Rapids' cultivar with organic and conventional
seeds under organic fertilization is similar.

These stories examine the lives of working class people in light of the current economic and social climate. They address and attempt to empathize with the despair and disillusionment many working class Americans express in response to their economic and social realities, and the stories attempt to walk a non-judgmental line regarding the attitudes these characters espouse. Instead of judging the characters or championing a particular moral stance, the pieces attempt to present individuals faced with major failures: child abandonment, guilt over preventable death, overriding selfishness, racism, and shame regarding social status. These failures of character or morality echo the larger failings, as the characters perceive them, of their time and place. Within this worldview of disillusionment and despair, many of the characters in these stories choose to struggle toward self-betterment—not economic or social betterment per se, but individual betterment, a reckoning with themselves and their failures that necessarily reflects and interacts with the world they inhabit. These are stories rooted in the Midwest and its rust-belt inhabitants, but for all their contemporary socio-economic concerns, the stories are first and foremost concerned with the individual and representing each individual portrayed accurately and honestly. / Master of Fine Arts
