Fatigue of narrow dental implants: influence of the hardening method
(MDPI, 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. ...
Comparison of changes in the dental transverse and sagittal planes between patients treated with self-ligating and with conventional brackets
(Scientific Electronic Library Online, 2020)
Introduction: Several advantages have been established regarding the efficiency of self-ligating brackets (SL). In spite of some controversy surrounding this question in the literature, clinical results ...
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 ...
Influence of the titanium implant surface treatment on the surface roughness and chemical composition
(MDPI, 2020)
The implant surface features affect the osseointegration process. Different surface treatment methods have been applied to improve the surface topography and properties. Trace of different elements may ...
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 ...
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 ...
Mechanical properties of CoCr dental-prosthesis restorations made by three manufacturing processes: influence of the microstructure and topography
(MDPI, 2020)
The aim of this study is to compare the mechanical properties of three different dental restorations’ manufacturing processes (CADCAM milling, casting and laser sintering) generated by only one laboratory ...
Prevalencia de anquiloglosia en neonatos y relación con datos auxológicos del recién nacido o con otras malformaciones o enfermedades asociadas
(Asociación Latinoamericana de Odontopediatría, 2021)
Objetivo: determinar la prevalencia de anquiloglosia en neonatos del Hospital Nostra Senyora de Meritxell del Principado de Andorra, Europa, así como la relación existente con datos auxológicos u otras ...
Influence of insertion torques on the surface integrity in different dental implants: an ex vivo descriptive study
(MDPI, 2023)
Background: The primary objective of this ex vivo study was to assess the influence of increasing insertion torques on three types of dental implants and possible alterations of their microgeometry after ...
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 ...
