Antimicrobial GL13K peptide coatings killed and ruptured the wall of streptococcus gordonii and prevented formation and growth of biofilms
(Public Library of Science, 2014)
Infection is one of the most prevalent causes for dental implant failure. We have developed a novel antimicrobial peptide coating on titanium by immobilizing the antimicrobial peptide GL13K. GL13K was ...
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. ...
Functional signatures of ex-vivo dental caries onset
(Taylor & Francis Group, 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, ...
Relevant aspects of piranha passivation in Ti6Al4V alloy dental meshes
(MDPI, 2022)
Passivation of titanium alloy dental meshes cleans their surface and forms a thin layer of protective oxide (TiO2) on the surface of the material to improve resistance to corrosion and prevent release ...
Development of standard protocols for biofilm-biomaterial interface testing
(Elsevier, 2022)
The oral biofilm is associated with the most common oral diseases such as caries, periodontitis, and peri-implantitis. It is also linked to failures of dental treatment approaches (eg, direct or indirect ...
PLA-based mineral-doped scaffolds seeded with human periapical cyst-derived MSCs: a promising tool for regenerative healing in dentistry
(MDPI, 2019)
Human periapical cyst mesenchymal stem cells (hPCy-MSCs) are a newly discovered cell population innovatively collected from inflammatory periapical cysts. The use of this biological waste guarantees a ...
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 ...
Guiding bone formation using semi-onlay calcium phosphate implants in an ovine calvarial model
(John Wiley & Sons, 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 ...
Chitosan-recombinamer layer-by-layer coatings for multifunctional implants
(MDPI, 2017)
The main clinical problems for dental implants are (1) formation of biofilm around the implant—a condition known as peri-implantitis and (2) inadequate bone formation around the implant—lack of ...
Discerning the subfibrillar structure of mineralized collagen fibrils: a model for the ultrastructure of bone
(Public Library of Science, 2013)
Biomineralization templated by organic molecules to produce inorganic-organic nanocomposites is a fascinating example of nature using bottom-up strategies at nanoscale to accomplish highly ordered ...
