Comparison of changes in the dental transverse and sagittal planes between patients treated with self-ligating and with conventional brackets
(Scientific Electronic Library Online, 2020)
Introduction: Several advantages have been established regarding the efficiency of self-ligating brackets (SL). In spite of some controversy surrounding this question in the literature, clinical results ...
Nasopharyngeal microbiota in children with invasive pneumococcal disease: identification of bacteria with potential disease-promoting and protective effects
(Frontiers Media, 2019)
Background and Aims: The risk of suffering from some infectious diseases can be related to specific microbiota profiles. Specifically, the nasopharyngeal microbiota could play a role as a risk or ...
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 ...
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 Patologia Oral y Cirugia Bucal, 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 ...
The atypical cyclin CNTD2 promotes colon cancer cell proliferation and migration
(Scientific Reports, 2018-08-07)
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide, with 8–10% of these tumours presenting a BRAF (V600E) mutation. Cyclins are known oncogenes deregulated in many cancers, but the role ...
Do topical applications of bisphosphonates improve bone formation in oral implantology? A systematic review
(Medicina Oral, 2017)
Background: The aim of this systematic literature review was to evaluate the feasibility of topical bisphosphonate application for preserving/enhancing alveolar bone in oral implantology. Material and ...
Nanotopological-tailored calcium phosphate cements for the odontogenic stimulation of human dental pulp stem cells through integrin signaling
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 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 ...
Antibacterial coatings on titanium surfaces: a comparison study between in vitro single-species and multispecies biofilm
(American Chemical Society Publications, 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 ...
Determination of fluid leakages in the different screw-retained implant-abutment connections in a mechanical artificial mouth
(Springer, 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 ...
A digital technique to fabricating removable complete dentures with a printed denture duplicate from a digital scan of patient’s old complete denture
(Corpus Publishers, 2020)
The intraoral digital scan consists of stitching many photographs to build a three-dimensional mesh, which may not be suitable for mobile tissues, resulting in challenging for making removable complete ...
