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 ...
Two different strategies to enhance osseointegration in porous titanium: inorganic thermo-chemical treatment versus organic coating by peptide adsorption
(MDPI, 2018)
In this study, highly-interconnected porous titanium implants were produced by powder sintering with different porous diameters and open interconnectivity. The actual foams were produced using high cost ...
Evaluation of bone loss in antibacterial coated dental implants: an experimental study in dogs
(Elsevier, 2016)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vivo effect of antibacterial modified dental implants in the first stages of peri-implantitis. Thirty dental implants were inserted in the mandibular premolar ...
Antibacterial properties of triethoxysilylpropyl succinic anhydride silane (TESPSA) on titanium dental implants
(MDPI, 2020)
Infections related to dental implants are a common complication that can ultimately lead to implant failure, and thereby carries significant health and economic costs. In order to ward off these infections, ...
Root membrane replantation as an alternative technique for the socket preservation
(Hindawi, 2022)
Background and Overview. Socket shield is a technique that allows the maintenance of tissue volumes. In the reported clinical case, the replantation of the buccal root fragment mistakenly extracted ...
Influence of titanium surface residual stresses on osteoblastic response and bacteria colonization
(MDPI, 2024)
Grit basting is the most common process applied to titanium dental implants to give them a roughness that favors bone colonization. There are numerous studies on the influence of roughness on osseointegration, ...
Evaluation of the inflammatory and osteogenic response induced by titanium particles released during implantoplasty of dental implants
(Springer Nature, 2022)
Implantoplasty is a mechanical decontamination technique that consists of removing the threads and polishing and smoothing the dental implant surface. During implantoplasty there is a large release of ...
One abutment one time: a multicenter, prospective, controlled, randomized study
(MDPI, 2020)
Aim: (PRIMARY) Assess the changes in bone level (6 and 12 months after implant placement) between the test (definitive abutment (DEF)) and control (healing abutment (HEA)) groups. (SECONDARY) Assess the ...
Defect angle as prognostic indicator in the reconstructive therapy of peri-implantitis
(John Wiley & Sons, 2023)
Objective: To analyze the influence of the characteristics of bone defects caused by peri-implantitis on the clinical resolution and radiographic bone gain following reconstructive surgery. Methods: ...
Citric acid passivation of titanium dental implants for minimizing bacterial colonization impact
(MDPI, 2021)
Surface topography and physical-chemical properties usually play a key-role in both osseointegration improvement and bacterial colonization reduction over the surface of dental implants. The aim of this ...
