Dynamic implant surgery— an accurate alternative to stereolithographic guides— systematic review and meta-analysis
(MDPI, 2023)
(1) Background: Dynamic guided surgery is a computer-guided freehand technology that allows highly accurate procedures to be carried out in real time through motion-tracking instruments. The aim of this ...
In vitro comparison of internal and marginal adaptation between printed and milled onlays
(MDPI, 2023)
Statement of problem: Nowadays, milling is still the gold standard for fabricating indirect restorations, but to overcome its disadvantages, there are alternatives, such as 3D printing. Purpose: This ...
CAD-CAM and analog occlusal splints comparison based on the amount of occlusal adjustments. 3D analysis of the volumetric changes: A pilot study
(Wiley, 2023)
Objective: To evaluate the volumetric changes on occlusal surface of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) occlusal devices fabricated following a fully digital workflow after ...
Predictors of periapical bone healing associated with teeth having large periapical lesions following nonsurgical root canal treatment or retreatment: A cone beam computed tomography-based retrospective study
(Wiley, 2023)
Aim: Several factors influence the condition of the periapical tissues associated with root filled teeth. The primary objective of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the extent and speed of bone ...
Novel strategies enhancing endodontic disinfection: antibacterial biodegradable calcium hydroxide nanoparticles in an ex vivo model
(Elsevier, 2023)
Due to the high failure rates associated to endodontic disinfection, this study aimed to investigate the antibacterial properties of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs) loaded with ...
Bone-level changes around implants with 1- or 3-mm-high abutments and their relation to crestal mucosal thickness: a 1-year randomized clinical trial
(Wiley, 2021)
Aim: To evaluate 1-year bone-level changes around subcrestal platform-switching implants with 1 or 3 mm definitive abutments. The influence of mucosal thickness on bone-level alterations was further ...
Influence of bone density, drill diameter, drilling speed, and irrigation on temperature changes during implant osteotomies: an in vitro study
(Springer Nature, 2021)
Objective: The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the influence of bone type, drill diameter, drilling speed, and irrigation on heat generation while performing osteotomy for dental implants. ...
Analysis of moral reasoning in dentistry students through case-based learning (CBL)
(Wiley, 2021)
Purpose: The aim of this study was to develop a tool to analyze the ethical dimensions during dental students' decision making, by using case-based learning (CBL). Methods: Five clinical scenarios ...
Properties of superelastic nickel–titanium wires after clinical use
(MDPI, 2023)
The aim of the present study was to describe and determine changes in the superelastic properties of NiTi archwires after clinical use and sterilization. Ten archwires from five different manufacturers ...
SEM analysis and micro-CT evaluation of four dental implants after three different mechanical requests - in vitro study
(MDPI, 2024)
Statement of problem: Implant-supported rehabilitations are an increasingly frequent practice to replace lost teeth. Before clinical application, all implant components should demonstrate suitable ...
