(Clinical Oral Implants Research, 2015)Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the antibacterial properties of silver-doped titanium surfaces prepared with a novel electrochemical anodizing process. Material and methods: Titanium ... -
Antibacterial coatings on titanium surfaces: a comparison study between in vitro single-species and multispecies biofilm
(ACS applied materials and interfaces, 2015)Dental plaque is a biofilm that causes dental caries, gingivitis, and periodontitis. Most of the studies in antibacterial coatings have been conducted by in vitro single-species biofilm formation, but ... -
Advances in surfaces and osseointegration in implantology. Biomimetic surfaces
(Medicina Oral, Patología Oral y Cirugía Bucal, 2015)The present work is a revision of the processes occurring in osseointegration of titanium dental implants according to different types of surfaces -namely, polished surfaces, rough surfaces obtained ... -
Osseoinductive elements for promoting osseointegration around immediate implants: a pilot study in the foxhound dog
(Clinical Oral Implants Research, 2015)Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of topical applications of melatonin over implant surfaces placed immediately after extraction by means of histological and histomorphometric ... -
In-vitro development of a temporal abutment screw to protect osseointegration in immediate loaded implants
(The Journal of Advanced Prosthodontics, 2015-04-23)Purpose: In this study, a temporal abutment fixation screw, designed to fracture in a controlled way upon application of an occlusal force sufficient to produce critical micromotion was developed. The ... -
Antifouling coatings for dental implants: PEG-like coatings on titanium by plasma polymerization
(Biointerphases: an open access journal for the biomaterials interface community, 2015-06)Titanium dental implants are commonly used for the replacement of lost teeth, but they present a considerable number of failures due to the infection on surrounding tissues. The aim of this paper is the ... -
Nanotopological-tailored calcium phosphate cements for the odontogenic stimulation of human dental pulp stem cells through integrin signaling
(RSC Advances, 2015-07-16)Calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) are a unique class of inorganic injectables attractive for the repair and regeneration of hard tissues. Tailoring the crystallite properties of CPC, particularly to ... -
Nanotechnology in dentistry: prevention, diagnosis, and therapy
(International Journal of Nanomedicine, 2015-10-08)Nanotechnology has rapidly expanded into all areas of science; it offers significant alternative ways to solve scientific and medical questions and problems. In dentistry, nanotechnology has been exploited ... -
Radiographic and histological evaluation of deproteinized bovine bone mineral vs. deproteinized bovine bone mineral with 10% collagen in ridge preservation. A randomized controlled clinical trial
(Clinical Oral Implants Research, 2016)Objectives: The aims of this randomized clinical trial were to compare the dimensional changes and the histological composition after using deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) or deproteinized ... -
