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 ...
Intra-osseous heat generation during implant bed preparation with static navigation: multi-factor in vitro study
(John Wiley & Sons, 2021)
Objectives: To compare the intra-osseous temperature reached during bone drilling for dental implant placement using open versus closed static surgical guides and evaluate the influence of bone density, ...
Polyethylene glycol pulsed electrodeposition for the development of antifouling coatings on titanium
(MDPI, 2020)
Titanium dental implants are widely used for the replacement of damaged teeth. However, bacterial infections at the interface between soft tissues and the implant can impair the functionality of the ...
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 ...
Association between smoking and peri-implant diseases: a retrospective study
(John Wiley & Sons, 2023)
Objectives: To determine the association between tobacco and peri-implant diseases in a sample of patients who had received implant-supported restorations in a university dental clinic. Furthermore, 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: ...
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 ...
Selecting biomaterials in the reconstructive therapy of peri-implantitis
(Wiley, 2023-09)
Peri-implantitis is a pathogenic inflammatory condition characterized by progressive bone loss and clinical inflammation that may compromise the stability of dental implants. Therapeutic modalities have ...
Finite element analysis relative to the crestal position of a 3.0-mm-diameter implant
(Quintessence Publishing, 2014)
It has been shown that implant designs and different vertical positions have an influence on crestal bone. The purpose of this study was to use finite element (FE) analysis to biomechanically investigate ...
Osseoinductive elements for promoting osseointegration around immediate implants: a pilot study in the foxhound dog
(Wiley, 2015)
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of topical applications of melatonin over implant surfaces placed immediately after extraction by means of histological and histomorphometric ...
