The end effector is positioned on the end effector drive support. The automated dental drill also includes a power source that drives the end effector and is coupled to the end effector and a one or more degrees of freedom drive assembly to direct the end effector along one or more degrees of freedom relative to the mouth piece housing section.

Abstract: Disclosed are multi-ply tissue products comprising a non-crosslinked binder that are durable and dispersible. The products generally have a Slosh time less than 2 minutes, such as less than about 60 seconds, such as less than about 45 seconds. Surprisingly, the foregoing Slosh times are achieved despite the tissue products having relatively high cross-machine direction (CD) wet tensile strength, such as greater than about 100 g/3?. Typically, increasing wet tensile strength, particularly wet CD tensile strength, negatively effects dispersability and increases Slosh time. Despite this trend, the present invention surprisingly provides a tissue product having a relatively high degree of wet strength and good dispersability.

Abstract: Documents may be maintained in a repository and retrieved based on searches that specify labels as criteria. Documents may be associated with groups of labels identified as topics. Searches may be performed using binary-encoded matrices specifying relationships between documents and topics, topics and labels and differential information indicating differences between topics and labels associated with documents. An initial result estimate may be based on forming a product of a documents-topics matrix and a topics-labels matrix. The initial estimate may be corrected by applying the differential information.
