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 ...
Shear bond strength of nanohybrid composite to biodentine with three different adhesives
(MDPI, 2019)
Biodentine® is a bioactive dentin coating widely used for dental restoration; however, its adhesion to the substrate could limit its clinical success. The aim of this study was to evaluate the shear ...
Mechanical characterization of dental prostheses manufactured with PMMA–graphene composites
(Materials, 2022)
The use of a PMMA composite with graphene is being commercialized for application as dental prostheses. The different proportions of fibers provide a wide range of colors that favors dental esthetics ...
The characterization of titanium particles released from bone-level titanium dental implants: effect of the size of particles on the ion release and cytotoxicity behaviour
(Materials, 2022)
Many studies are being carried out on the particles released during the implantoplasty process in the machining of dental implants to remove bacterial biofilms. However, there are no studies on the ...
Prospective clinical trial on the effectiveness of topical anesthetic in second stage surgeries of dental implants
(Peertechz Publications, 2017)
Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of gel topical anaesthesia in second surgeries of dental implants according to the different treated areas of the oral cavity, as well ...
