Physicochemical and biological characterization of Ti6Al4V particles obtained by implantoplasty: an in vitro study. Part I
(MDPI, 2021)
Implantoplasty is a mechanical decontamination technique that consists of polishing the supra-osseous component of the dental implant with peri-implantitis. This technique releases metal particles in ...
In vitro study of shear bond strength in direct and indirect bonding with three types of adhesive systems
(MDPI, 2020)
This study aimed to compare the shear bond strength (SBS) and adhesive remaining index (ARI) using one conventional and two novel adhesive systems with clinical step reduction and direct and indirect ...
Osseointegration of sandblasted and acid-etched implant surfaces. A histological and histomorphometric study in the rabbit
(MDPI, 2021)
Titanium surface is an important factor in achieving osseointegration during the early wound healing of dental implants in alveolar bone. The purpose of this study was to evaluate sandblasted-etched ...
Early short-term postoperative mechanical failures of current ceramic-on-ceramic bearing total hip arthroplasties
(MDPI, 2020)
Although ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) bearings have been shown to produce the smallest amount of wear volume in vitro as well as in vivo studies when used for total hip arthroplasties (THA), concerns about ...
Comparison of zirconia degradation in dental implants and femoral balls: an X-ray diffraction and nanoindentation study
(Springer Nature, 2021)
Background: New tetragonal zirconia polycrystal dental implants stabilized with yttria (Y-TZP) have appeared in the implantology market in the form of single piece or two-piece zircona implant system. ...
Do titanium mini-implants have the same quality of finishing and degree of contamination before and after different manipulations? An in vitro study
(MDPI, 2021)
Evaluate the quality of finishing and degree of contamination before and after handling and surface treatment of titanium (Ti) orthodontic mini-implants (OMIs). A scanning electron microscope (SEM) study ...
In-situ laser directed energy deposition of biomedical Ti-Nb and Ti-Zr-Nb alloys from elemental powders
(MDPI, 2021)
In order to achieve the required properties of titanium implants, more resources and research are needed to turn into reality the dream of developing the perfect implant material. The objective of this ...
Surface comparison of three different commercial custom-made titanium meshes produced by SLM for dental applications
(MDPI, 2020)
The use of individualized titanium meshes has been referred to in scientific literature since 2011. There are many advantages to its use, however, the main complications are related to early or late ...
Effect of different implant designs on strain and stress distribution under non-axial loading: a three-dimensional finite element analysis
(MDPI, 2020)
Implant design evolved alongside the development of implant therapy. The purpose of this finite element analysis (FEA) study was to analyze the influence of different implant designs on the stress and ...
Mechanical properties and corrosion behavior of Ti6Al4V particles obtained by implantoplasty: an in vitro study. Part II
(MDPI, 2021)
In the field of implant dentistry there are several mechanisms by which metal particles can be released into the peri-implant tissues, such as implant insertion, corrosion, wear, or surface decontamination ...
