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 ...
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 ...
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, ...
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 ...
Evaluation of titanium dental implants after early failure of osseointegration by means of X-ray photoelectron spectoscopy, electron microscopy and histological studies
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2010-11)
In this work, we analysed 56 clinically failed and retrieved implants by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and histological studies. The surface ...
Surface comparison of three different commercial custom-made titanium meshes produced by SLM for dental applications
(MDPI, 2020)
The use of individualized titanium meshes has been referred to in scientific literature since 2011. There are many advantages to its use, however, the main complications are related to early or late ...
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) ...
Anhydride-functional silane immobilized onto titanium surfaces induces osteoblast cell differentiation and reduces bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation
(Elsevier, 2016)
Bacterial infection in dental implants along with osseointegration failure usually leads to loss of the device. Bioactive molecules with antibacterial properties can be attached to titanium surfaces ...
Relevant aspects of titanium and zirconia dental implants for their fatigue and osseointegration behaviors
(MDPI, 2022)
Osseointegration capacity and good mechanical behavior are key to the success of the dental implant. In many investigations, comparisons of properties are made using different dental implant designs and ...
Determination of fluid leakages in the different screw-retained implant-abutment connections in a mechanical artificial mouth
(Springer, 2015-07-15)
This study shows the potential risk of microfiltration between two different types of implant-abutment connections screwed at 45 Ncm: external and internal. For the first time the use of a mechanical ...
