Antibacterial coatings on titanium surfaces: a comparison study between in vitro single-species and multispecies biofilm
(American Chemical Society Publications, 2015)
Dental plaque is a biofilm that causes dental caries, gingivitis, and periodontitis. Most of the studies in antibacterial coatings have been conducted by in vitro single-species biofilm formation, but ...
Cell adhesive peptides functionalized on CoCr alloy stimulate endothelialization and prevent thrombogenesis and restenosis
(John Wiley & Sons, 2017)
Immobilization of bioactive peptide sequences on CoCr surfaces is an effective route to improve endothelialization, which is of great interest for cardiovascular stents. In this work, we explored the ...
Impedimetric antimicrobial peptide-based sensor for the early detection of periodontopathogenic bacteria
(Springer Nature, 2016)
Novel researches are focused on the prevention and management of post-operative infections. To avoid this common complication of implant surgery, it is preferable to use new biomaterials with antibacterial ...
Tuning mesenchymal stem cell response onto titanium-niobium-hafnium alloy by recombinant fibronectin fragments
(ACS Publications, 2016)
Since metallic biomaterials used for bone replacement possess low bioactivity, the use of cell adhesive moieties is a common strategy to improve cellular response onto these surfaces. In recent years, ...
Resonance frequency analysis by the Osstell system, using the transducer screwed to different healings abutments
(Sociedade Portuguesa de Estomatologia e Medicina Dentária, 2017)
Objectives: compare the ISQ values obtained by the Osstell ISQ, screwing the Smarpeg directly to the implant or to the new designed healing abutments of 2, 3.5 and 5 mm of height. Methods: 60 rough ...
Advances in surfaces and osseointegration in implantology. Biomimetic surfaces
(Medicina Oral, 2015)
The present work is a revision of the processes occurring in osseointegration of titanium dental implants according to different types of surfaces -namely, polished surfaces, rough surfaces obtained ...
Biofunctional polyethylene glycol coatings on titanium: an in vitro-based comparison of functionalization methods
(Elsevier, 2017)
Three methods for the production of Polyethylene glycol (PEG) coatings on titanium are compared, i.e. plasma polymerization, electrodeposition and silanization. The compared deposition methods presented ...
