Abstract:
The biennial symposium of the Education, Research and Development Group (ERDG) of the New ZealandAssociation of Orthodontists (NZAO) was held in Queenstown on August 17 and 18, 2007. Following a well-tested format, the symposium considered the effects of expansion of the dental arches in the three planes of space and over time, a timely but difficult topic given the current fashion to avoid the extraction of teeth to correct dental crowding. The findings reported here represent the consensus reached by delegates attending the symposium.

Thermal expansion and Thermal stress: Problem Solving
To solve the problem, first, identify the known and unknown quantities. The initial length (L) of the bridge is 1275 m, the coefficient of linear expansion (α) for steel is 12 x 10-6/°C, and the change in temperature (ΔT) is 55 °C.
