Polyethylene glycol pulsed electrodeposition for the development of antifouling coatings on titanium
(Coatings, 2020)
Titanium dental implants are widely used for the replacement of damaged teeth. However, bacterial infections at the interface between soft tissues and the implant can impair the functionality of the ...
Two different strategies to enhance osseointegration in porous titanium: inorganic thermo-chemical treatment versus organic coating by peptide adsorption
(International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018)
In this study, highly-interconnected porous titanium implants were produced by powder sintering with different porous diameters and open interconnectivity. The actual foams were produced using high cost ...
Relevant design aspects to improve the stability of titanium dental implants
(Materials, 2020)
Post-extractional implants and immediate loading protocols are becoming much more frequent in everyday clinical practice. Given the existing literature about tapered implants, the objective of this paper ...
Influence of the elastic modulus on the osseointegration of dental implants
(Materials, 2019-03-25)
The load transfer from metallic prosthesis to tissue plays an important role in the success
of a designed device. From a mechanical behavior point of view, the load transfer will be favored
when the ...
Determination of fluid leakages in the different screw-retained implant-abutment connections in a mechanical artificial mouth
(Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2015-07-15)
This study shows the potential risk of microfiltration between two different types of implant-abutment connections screwed at 45 Ncm: external and internal. For the first time the use of a mechanical ...
Antibacterial properties of triethoxysilylpropyl succinic anhydride silane (TESPSA) on titanium dental implants
(Polymers, 2020)
Infections related to dental implants are a common complication that can ultimately lead to implant failure, and thereby carries significant health and economic costs. In order to ward off these infections, ...
Fracture and fatigue of titanium narrow dental implants: new trends in order to improve the mechanical response
(Materials, 2019-11-12)
Sixty-four fractured commercially pure titanium (cp-Ti) narrow dental implants (NDIs) with similar macrogeometry and connection designs were studied after different implantation times in humans in order ...
Short implants (<8mm) versus longer implants (≥8mm) with lateral sinus floor augmentation in posterior atrophic maxilla: a meta-analysis of RCT's in humans
(Medicina Oral S.L., 2020)
Background: One of the greatest challenges that dentists face today is to rehabilitate severe atrophied alveolar ridges in partially and completely edentulous patients with implants. Despite the high ...
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 ...
Mechanical properties of CoCr dental-prosthesis restorations made by three manufacturing processes: influence of the microstructure and topography
(Metals, 2020)
The aim of this study is to compare the mechanical properties of three different dental restorations’ manufacturing processes (CADCAM milling, casting and laser sintering) generated by only one laboratory ...
