Porous titanium-hydroxyapatite composite coating obtained on titanium by cold gas spray with high bond strength for biomedical applications
(Elsevier, 2019-04-24)
The lack of bioactivity of titanium (Ti) is one of the main drawbacks for its application in biomedical implants since it can considerable reduce its osseointegration capacities. One strategy to overcome ...
Wear in two cases of ceramic on ceramic total hip arthroplasty after 30 years follow up
(Biomedical Research Network, 2018)
Background: Ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) bearings have been in use in total hip replacement (THR) for more than 40 years, with excellent long-term survivorship but concerns over the ceramic-on-ceramic ...
Benefits of residual aluminum oxide for sand blasting titanium dental implants: osseointegration and bactericidal effects
(MDPI, 2022)
Objectives. The purpose of this work was to determine the influence of residual alumina after sand blasting treatment in titanium dental implants. This paper studied the effect of alumina on physico-chemical ...
Mechanical and microstructural characterization of new nickel-free low modulus beta-type titanium wires during thermomechanical treatments
(Elsevier, 2015-06-11)
NiTi alloy is the only practical shape memory alloy (SMA) in biomedical use because of its excellent mechanical stability and functionality. However, it is estimated that between 4.5% and 28.5% of the ...
RE-irradiation of silver nanoparticles obtained by laser ablation in water and assessment of their antibacterial effect
(Elsevier, 2018-12-20)
The rapid evolution of resistant bacteria is a huge problem in medicine because makes the treatment of infections more and more difficult. The bactericidal properties of noble metal nanoparticles could ...
Polyethylene glycol pulsed electrodeposition for the development of antifouling coatings on titanium
(MDPI, 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 ...
Corrosion behavior of titanium dental implants with implantoplasty
(MDPI, 2022)
The procedure generally used to remove bacterial biofilm adhering to the surface of titanium on dental implants is implantoplasty. This treatment is based on the machining of the titanium surface to ...
A dual molecular biointerface combining RGD and KRSR sequences Improves osteoblastic functions by synergizing integrin and cell-membrane proteoglycan binding
(MDPI, 2019-03-21)
Synergizing integrin and cell-membrane heparan sulfate proteoglycan signaling on biomaterials through peptidic sequences is known to have beneficial effects in the attachment and behavior of osteoblasts; ...
Citric acid passivation of titanium dental implants for minimizing bacterial colonization impact
(MDPI, 2021)
Surface topography and physical-chemical properties usually play a key-role in both osseointegration improvement and bacterial colonization reduction over the surface of dental implants. The aim of this ...
A non-interventional study documenting use and success of tissue level implants
(MDPI, 2020)
Numerous randomised controlled multicentric studies have investigated various responses to different treatment modalities with dental implants. These studies do not always show the results of daily ...
