Effect of different implant designs on strain and stress distribution under non-axial loading: a three-dimensional finite element analysis
(MDPI, 2020)
Implant design evolved alongside the development of implant therapy. The purpose of this finite element analysis (FEA) study was to analyze the influence of different implant designs on the stress and ...
Effects of different undersizing site preparations on implant stability
(MDPI, 2020)
As immediate loading protocols are becoming more frequent, the primary stability of implants has become an essential criterion for the osseointegration of dental implants. Based on this, the objective ...
Chemoselective coatings of GL13K antimicrobial peptides for dental implants
(MDPI, 2023)
Dental implant−associated infection is a clinical challenge which poses a significant healthcare and socio−economic burden. To overcome this issue, developing antimicrobial surfaces, including antimicrobial ...
Covariates relating to implant failure and marginal bone loss of a novel triangular neck-implant placed by post-graduate students: a 1-year prospective cohort study
(MDPI, 2022)
(1) Background: Most of the clinical literature dealing with dental implants has been issued by experienced teams working either in university settings or in private practice. The purpose of this study ...
The use of PEEK in implantology: a narrative review
(ScholarPublishing, 2022)
The present paper reviewed the literature on PEEK and its applications in implant dentistry. Materials and Methods: In vivo in human and animal models, in vitro studies, case reports and cases series ...
A systematic study of restorative crown-materials combinations for dental implants: characterization of mechanical properties under dynamic loads
(MDPI, 2022)
This study aimed to find the optimum mechanical characteristics of the restorative materials for the manufacture of implant crowns subjected to impact loading when different combinations of materials ...
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 ...
Mechanical characterisation and biomechanical and biological behaviours of Ti-Zr binary-alloy dental implants
(Hindawi, 2017)
The objective of the study is to characterise the mechanical properties of Ti-15Zr binary alloy dental implants and to describe their biomechanical behaviour as well as their osseointegration capacity ...
Antibacterial properties of hLf1-11 peptide onto titanium surfaces: a comparison study between silanization and surface initiated polymerization
(ACS Publications, 2015)
Dental implant failure can be associated with infections that develop into peri-implantitis. In order to reduce biofilm formation, several strategies focusing on the use of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) ...
Surface immobilization chemistry of a laminin-derived peptide affects keratinocyte activity
(MDPI, 2020)
Many chemical routes have been proposed to immobilize peptides on biomedical device surfaces, and in particular, on dental implants to prevent peri-implantitis. While a number of factors affect peptide ...
