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 ...
Peer mentoring as a tool for developing soft skills in clinical practice: a 3-year study
(MDPI, 2021)
Education currently focuses on improving academic knowledge and clinical skills, but it is also important for students to develop personal and interpersonal skills from the start of their clinical ...
Multimodal analgesia in orthognathic surgery
(AME Publishing Company, 2022)
Orthognathic surgery, as part of maxillofacial surgery, involves the correction of dentofacial deformities for both functional (occlusion, speech and sleep disturbances) and aesthetic reasons. Deformities ...
Osteoblastic cell behavior and gene expression related to bone metabolism on different titanium surfaces
(MDPI, 2023)
The surface topography of titanium dental implants has a great influence on osseointegration. In this work, we try to determine the osteoblastic behavior and gene expression of cells with different ...
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 ...
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 ...
Protocol for indirect restoration intraoral scanning under dental dam isolation: a dental technique
(John Wiley & Sons, 2021)
This paper aims to describe an intraoral scanning protocol for indirect restorations utilizing dental dam isolation. This technique consists of the initial scan of both arches and their occlusion. Then, ...
Palladium nanoparticles synthesized by laser ablation in liquids for antimicrobial applications
(MDPI, 2022)
Antibiotic resistance is a leading cause of death worldwide. In this paper, we explore new alternatives in the treatment of infections. Noble metal nanoparticles could help to mitigate this problem. In ...
