The purposes of this study were to determine by direct measurement the effects that acetylsalicylic acid, ibuprofen, and acetaminophen have on orthodontic tooth movement in rats and to evaluate histologically the differences in bone resorption in the pressure area in rats treated with these analgesics.ooth movement was similar in the groups. CONCLUSIONS: The results indicate that nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics such as aspirin and ibuprofen diminish the number of osteoclasts, probably by inhibiting the secretion of prostaglandins, thereby reducing orthodontic tooth movement.
â¢ CLINOMETER (noun) The noun CLINOMETER has 1 sense: 1. an instrument used by surveyors in order to measure an angle of inclination or elevation. Familiarity information: CLINOMETER used as a noun is very rare.
Although the clinometer has many uses, such as measure the height of a tree or a building, its mayor use in agriculture is to measure the soil slope. How to measure soil slope? The first step is to calibrate the clinometer at sight level (cero), or the horizontal sighting of the person using it. To calibrate it you can use a level rod or the level (0) of your vision height looking to another person. Level cero in the clinometer will be read wherever 0-0 hits the rod or the body of the other person.
