State Licensure for US Dentists. Though requirements vary from state to state, all applicants for dental licensure must meet three basic requirements; an education requirement, a written examination requirement and a clinical examination requirement.andidates for dental licenses in most U.S. licensing jurisdictions are subject to a clinical examination requirement 1. Each state board of dentistry establishes its clinical examination requirement.
Discitis or diskitis is an infection in the intervertebral disc space that affects different age groups. In adults it can lead to severe consequences such as sepsis or epidural abscess but can also spontaneously resolve, especially in children under 8 years of age.
Herniated Nucleus Pulposus. There are soft-tissue discs between the bony vertebral bodies in your thoracic spine (rib cage area) that are called intervertebral discs. These discs are composed of a soft gel-like center called the nucleus pulposus, and a tough outer layer that surrounds the disc called the annulus fibrosis. The intervertebral disc creates a joint between each of the vertebral bodies that allows them to flex and extend, rotate slightly, and laterally bend.
