Effects of occipital-atlas stabilization on the upper cervical spine rotation combinations: an in vitro study
(Springer Nature, 2023)
The purpose of this study is to compare axial rotation range of motion for the upper cervical spine during three movements: axial rotation, rotation + flexion + ipsilateral lateral bending and ...
Post-instrumentation dentinal microcracks induced by two NiTi rotary systems with increased super elasticity and shape memory: a microCT comparative and methodological ex vivo study
(MDPI, 2023)
This study aimed to determine the incidence of dentinal microcracks after instrumenting the root canals of maxillary premolars using two novel rotary instrumentation systems. Micro-computed tomography ...
In vitro study of preload loss in different implant abutment connection designs
(MDPI, 2022)
The stability and integrity of the abutment-implant connection, by means of a screw, is fallible from the moment the prosthetic elements are joined and is dependent on the applied preload, wear of the ...
Differences between the fittings of dental prostheses produced by CAD-CAM and laser sintering processes
(MDPI, 2023)
Digital dentistry and new techniques for the dental protheses’ suprastructure fabrication have undergone a great evolution in recent years, revolutionizing the quality of dental prostheses. The aim of ...
Optimization of titanium dental mesh surfaces for biological sealing and prevention of bacterial colonization
(MDPI, 2022)
Titanium dental meshes have a wide application in order to ensure the retention of calcium phosphate-based biomaterials to regenerate bone tissue. These meshes are temporary and must grow a soft tissue ...
Computer-guided surgery can avoid prophylactic endodontic treatment in autologous tooth transplantation: a 5-year follow-up case report
(MDPI, 2024)
Autotransplantation is a successful technique to replace compromised teeth. This study presents a computer-guided surgical approach for preparing the receiving socket for a mature mandibular third molar ...
Junctional epithelium and hemidesmosomes: tape and rivets for solving the “percutaneous device dilemma” in dental and other permanent implants
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
The percutaneous device dilemma describes etiological factors, centered around the disrupted epithelial tissue surrounding non-remodelable devices, that contribute to rampant percutaneous device infection. ...
Effects of different undersizing site preparations on implant stability
(MDPI, 2020)
As immediate loading protocols are becoming more frequent, the primary stability of implants has become an essential criterion for the osseointegration of dental implants. Based on this, the objective ...
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 ...
Disease recurrence during supportive therapy following peri-implantitis treatment: a retrospective study
(Wiley, 2024)
Aim: Supportive therapy is key to prevent disease recurrence after peri-implantitis treatment. The primary objective was to quantify disease recurrence during supportive peri-implant therapy (SPIT) after ...
