Bacteriostatic poly rthylene glycol plasma coatings for orthodontic titanium mini-implants
(MDPI, 2022)
Titanium mini-implants are used as anchorage for orthodontic tooth movements. However, these implants present problems due to the infection of surrounding tissues. The aim of this work was to obtain a ...
Biofunctional polyethylene glycol coatings on titanium: an in vitro-based comparison of functionalization methods
(Elsevier, 2017)
Three methods for the production of Polyethylene glycol (PEG) coatings on titanium are compared, i.e. plasma polymerization, electrodeposition and silanization. The compared deposition methods presented ...
Relevant aspects of titanium topography for osteoblastic adhesion and inhibition of bacterial colonization
(MDPI, 2023)
The influence of the surface topography of dental implants has been studied to optimize titanium surfaces in order to improve osseointegration. Different techniques can be used to obtain rough titanium, ...
Implant surface physicochemistry affects keratinocyte hemidesmosome formation
(John Wiley & Sons, 2023)
Previous studies have shown hydrophilic/hydrophobic implant surfaces stimulate/hinder osseointegration. An analogous concept was applied here using common biological functional groups on a model surface ...
Novel digital technique to analyze the accuracy and intraoperative complications of orthodontic self-tapping and self-drilling microscrews placement techniques: an in vitro study
(Elsevier, 2022)
Introduction: The objectives of this study were to analyze and compare the accuracy and intraoperative complications of orthodontic self-tapping and orthodontic self-drilling microscrew placement ...
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 ...
Evaluation of bone loss in antibacterial coated dental implants: an experimental study in dogs
(Elsevier, 2016-12)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vivo effect of antibacterial modified dental implants in the first stages of peri-implantitis. Thirty dental implants were inserted in the mandibular premolar ...
Proteasomal-mediated degradation of AKAP150 accompanies AMPAR endocytosis during cLTD
(Society for Neuroscience, 2020-03-23)
The number and function of synaptic AMPA receptors (AMPARs) tightly regulates excitatory synaptic transmission. Current evidence suggests that AMPARs are inserted into the postsynaptic membrane during ...
Manejo de pacientes en cirugía oral y maxilofacial durante el periodo de crisis y de control posterior de la pandemia de COVID-19
(Inspira Network, 2020)
La pandemia por la nueva infección respiratoria conocida como enfermedad coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19), causada por el virus SARS-CoV-2, ha desencadenado una perturbación sin precedentes en la actividad ...
High effectiveness of a 14-day concomitant therapy for helicobacter pylori treatment in primary care. An observational multicenter study
(MDPI, 2020)
Background: The current cure rates with triple therapy combining a proton-pump inhibitor, amoxicillin and clarithromycin are unacceptably low. Aims: To evaluate the efficacy of a 14-day concomitant ...
