Optical Dispensing
More than 70% of the population have visual defect. The most common ametropia are: myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and presbyopia but there is more than one hundred of them. You also have to choose your frame according to the prescription, to your face form and to your tan. Only a professional optician can guide you through all this.

Optical dispensing: What you need to know to buy new glasses.
Lenses correct ametropias which represent different anomalies affecting the vision like myopia, hyperopia, presbyopia and astigmatism. An emmetropic eye means it’s normal and there’s no need for glasses. The form of the frame depends on the form of the face and the color of it depends on the tan of the person which can be hot or cold.

Abstract on the History of Dental Prosthesis
Dental prosthesis existed ever since people started losing their teeth. Teeth are not just only aesthetic, they are a functional part of the body. Through the history, human beings were aware of that and invented techniques, bad or not, to restore and beautify them. Like other things, teeth restoring followed some trends over the centuries.

The history of cinema
For over a hundred years, cinema has made us laugh and cry. But most of all it was an entertainement for all of us. But today's movies are nothing like they were years ago. From Charlie Chaplain silent era domination to today's million dollars blockbuster, cinema sure changed a lot.
Respiratory and Circulatory Systems
Respiratory and circulatory systems are closely related. Lungs are ventilated by breathing and transport oxygen from the atmosphere to the bloodstream. Molecules of oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged by diffusion into the alveoli of the lungs to the pulmonary capillaries. Oxygenated blood circulates to the heart that pumps it to the systemic arteries that irrigate cells.
CPR
CPR is the contraction for cardiopulmonary resuscitation. When someone’s breathing or heartbeat has stopped, CPR is done to keep the heart and the brain oxygenated until an ambulance arrives. The CPR includes two techniques: the rescue breathing and the chest compressions. It is also a really easy way to save someone’s life.
Dental Hygiene and Oral Diseases
Your oral health is an important part of your overall health. Each tooth has two main parts, the crown and the roots. The teeth are divides in four groups: the incisor, the canine, the premolar and the molar. The most common oral diseases are the gingivitis, the tooth cavity, the periodontal disease and the tooth sensitivity. With a good oral health, you can prevent those diseases.

Survey Summary
Now that you have collected data for a survey, you will write up a summary of the findings. In your summary you will:
- describe the purpose of your survey
- describe the survey results (the number of respondents, the types of questions, etc) followed by an analysis of the results (your interpretation of the data)
- explain whether or not the survey met your goals and why or why not. Elaborate on what you learned from the data and from creating a survey and what you would do differently in a future survey.

Survey on Dental Hygiene
We made up a survey on dental hygiene to know more about the good or bad habits people have with their teeth. 17 people answered our survey. The questions in the survey were designed to know how much people care about their teeth, if they ever had dental work and how important it is for them to go to the dentist. It surprised us to see that 50% of the people who answered floss their teeth once a day. It's way more then we expected. In general, around 50% of them are careful with their teeth, are satisfied with them and had dental work done. However the majority thinks dental services are too expensive. We are satisfied with our survey even though a minority answered anything. If we have to do anything different in the future, we would choose better answering options.

Analysis #2
We will try to interpretate the results the best we can of a survey related to dental care. The purpose of the survey was to find what are the habits concerning the dental hygiene of the Collège Édouard Montpetit students.
So far, 17 students responded to the survey. We have analysed the data and we found out very interesting things about the habits. In general, most of the students (56.3%) floss their teeth one time a day or more which represent a very good indicator about the flossing habits of the students. More than 3/4 of students think that their teeth are healty despite the fact that 40 % have one or more tooth cavities and 46.7% suffer from teeth sensitivity even dough around 90% of the college respondents claim to brush their teeth at least 2 times a day. It is interesting to notice that between 55 % and 60% of the students cares about having healthy good looking teeth. We also found that 11,8% of the respondent claims to never go to the dentist, which is not so dramatic but stunished ourselves.
Even dough we didn't create the survey, we can see that the questions answered the goal that was mentionned at the beginning. In the future, I think we should work with a survey that we have made ourselves and includes less long answer questions because those data are more complicated to interpret.
