Exploring the expression of pro-inflammatory and hypoxia-related MicroRNA-20a, MicroRNA-30e, and MicroRNA-93 in periodontitis and gingival mesenchymal stem cells under hypoxia
(International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022)Hypoxia associated with inflammation are common hallmarks observed in several diseases, and it plays a major role in the expression of non-coding RNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs). In addition, the ... -
Fabrication and deposition of copper and copper oxide nanoparticles by laser ablation in open air
(Nanomaterials, 2020-02-10)The proximity of the “post-antibiotic era”, where infections and minor injuries could be a cause of death, there are urges to seek an alternative for the cure of infectious diseases. Copper nanoparticles ... -
Factors affecting implant failure and marginal bone loss of implants placed by post-graduate students: a 1-year prospective cohort study
(Materials, 2020)Statement of the problem: Most of the clinical documentation of implant success and survival published in the literature have been issued by either experienced teams from university settings involving ... -
Fatigue of narrow dental implants: influence of the hardening method
(Materials, 2020)The use of narrow titanium dental implants (NDI) for small ridges, reduced interdental space, or missing lateral incisors can be a viable option when compared to the conventional wider dental implants. ... -
Finite element analysis relative to the crestal position of a 3.0-mm-diameter implant
(The International Journal of Periodontics & Restorative Dentistry, 2014)It has been shown that implant designs and different vertical positions have an influence on crestal bone. The purpose of this study was to use finite element (FE) analysis to biomechanically investigate ... -
Fracture and fatigue of titanium narrow dental implants: new trends in order to improve the mechanical response
(Materials, 2019-11-12)Sixty-four fractured commercially pure titanium (cp-Ti) narrow dental implants (NDIs) with similar macrogeometry and connection designs were studied after different implantation times in humans in order ... -
Fracture resistance in non-vital teeth: absence of interproximal ferrule and influence of preparation depth in CAD/CAM endocrown overlays - an in vitro study
(Materials, 2022)There is ample evidence to support the use of endocrowns to restore endodontic teeth. However, the influence of the position of the interproximal margins on fracture strength has not yet been studied. ... -
Functional signatures of ex-vivo dental caries onset
(Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2022)Background: The etiology of dental caries remains poorly understood. With the advent of next-generation sequencing, a number of studies have focused on the microbial ecology of the disease. However, ... -
Functionalization of CoCr surfaces with cell adhesive peptides to promote HUVECs adhesion and proliferation
(Applied Surface Science, 2017)Biomimetic surface modification with peptides that have specific cell-binding moieties is a promising approach to improve endothelialization of metal-based stents. In this study, we functionalized CoCr ... -
Guiding bone formation using semi-onlay calcium phosphate implants in an ovine calvarial model
(Journal of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine, 2022)The restoration of cranio-maxillofacial deformities often requires complex reconstructive surgery in a challenging anatomical region, with abnormal soft tissue structures and bony deficits. In this ... -
