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 ...
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 ...
Association between smoking and peri-implant diseases: a retrospective study
(John Wiley & Sons, 2023)
Objectives: To determine the association between tobacco and peri-implant diseases in a sample of patients who had received implant-supported restorations in a university dental clinic. Furthermore, the ...
Effect of load distribution on trunk muscle activity with lunge exercises in amateur athletes: cross-sectional study
(MDPI, 2023)
Background: The effect of load distribution applied to the trunk musculature with lunge exercises has yet to be determined. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of load placement using ...
Optimization of guanosine-based hydrogels with boric acid derivatives for enhanced long-term stability and cell survival
(Frontiers Media, 2023)
Tissue defects can lead to serious health problems and often require grafts or transplants to repair damaged soft tissues. However, these procedures can be complex and may not always be feasible due to ...
Effects of diacutaneous fibrolysis in patients with tension-type headache: a randomized controlled trial
(Public Library of Science, 2023)
Background: Manual therapy appears to be effective for the relief of tension-type headache (TTH), just as diacutaneous fibrolysis (DF) has shown to be a beneficial technique for the relief of symptoms ...
Effect of stabilized martensite on the long-term performance of superelastic NiTi endodontic files
(MDPI, 2023)
One of the most used rotary files in endodontics is NiTi files due to their superelastic properties. This property means that this instrument has extraordinary flexion that can adapt to large angles ...
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 ...
Effect of implantoplasty on roughness, fatigue and corrosion behavior of narrow diameter dental implants
(MDPI, 2023)
Implantoplasty (IP) is used in dental implants with peri-implantitis and aims to remove threads and polish rough surfaces in order to prevent bacterial colonization. As a result of this procedure, implant ...
Effect of fluoride content of mouthwashes on the metallic ion release in different orthodontics archwires
(MDPI, 2023)
Metal ion release studies were carried out on three of the most commonly used orthodontic wires in the clinic: austenitic stainless steel, Ti-Mo, and superelastic NiTi, using three mouthwashes with ...
