Multidisciplinary management of an external cervical resorption and cemental tear
(ARIESDUE, 2021)
A 53-year-old man was referred to the University Dental Clinic complaining of a pink spot that he noticed on his right maxillary central incisor. After thorough clinical and radiographic examination, ...
One-step liquid phase polymerization of HEMA by atmospheric-pressure plasma discharges for Ti dental implants
(MDPI, 2021)
Dental implants can fail due to various factors, in which bad tissue integration is believed to have a significant role. Specific properties of the implant surface, such as its chemistry and roughness, ...
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 ...
Influence of implant design and under-preparation of the implant site on implant primary stability: an In vitro study
(MDPI, 2020)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different implant sites an under-preparation sequence associated with two different implant designs on implant primary stability measured by two ...
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, ...
Fabrication and deposition of copper and copper oxide nanoparticles by laser ablation in open air
(MDPI, 2020-02-10)
The proximity of the “post-antibiotic era”, where infections and minor injuries could be a cause of death, there are urges to seek an alternative for the cure of infectious diseases. Copper nanoparticles ...
A radiographic and clinical comparison of immediate vs. early loading (4 weeks) of implants with a new thermo-chemically treated surface: a randomized clinical trial
(MDPI, 2021)
Background: Implant dentistry has evolved over time, resulting in better treatment outcomes for both patients and clinicians. The aim of this trial was to test whether the immediate loading of implants ...
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 ...
Influence of bone-level dental implants placement and of cortical thickness on osseointegration: in silico and In vivo analyses
(MDPI, 2022)
The purpose of this research is to study the biomechanical response of dental implants in bone-level type locations, 0.5 mm above and below the bone level. In addition, the influence of the thickness ...
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. ...
