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 ...
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 ...
Impedimetric antimicrobial peptide-based sensor for the early detection of periodontopathogenic bacteria
(Springer Nature, 2016)
Novel researches are focused on the prevention and management of post-operative infections. To avoid this common complication of implant surgery, it is preferable to use new biomaterials with antibacterial ...
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 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) ...
Tuning mesenchymal stem cell response onto titanium-niobium-hafnium alloy by recombinant fibronectin fragments
(ACS Publications, 2016)
Since metallic biomaterials used for bone replacement possess low bioactivity, the use of cell adhesive moieties is a common strategy to improve cellular response onto these surfaces. In recent years, ...
Antibacterial coatings on titanium surfaces: a comparison study between in vitro single-species and multispecies biofilm
(American Chemical Society Publications, 2015)
Dental plaque is a biofilm that causes dental caries, gingivitis, and periodontitis. Most of the studies in antibacterial coatings have been conducted by in vitro single-species biofilm formation, but ...
In-situ laser directed energy deposition of biomedical Ti-Nb and Ti-Zr-Nb alloys from elemental powders
(MDPI, 2021)
In order to achieve the required properties of titanium implants, more resources and research are needed to turn into reality the dream of developing the perfect implant material. The objective of this ...
Citric acid in the passivation of titanium dental implants: corrosion resistance and bactericide behavior
(MDPI, 2022)
The passivation of titanium dental implants is performed in order to clean the surface and obtain a thin layer of protective oxide (TiO2) on the surface of the material in order to improve its behavior ...
Mechanical and microstructural characterization of new nickel-free low modulus beta-type titanium wires during thermomechanical treatments
(Elsevier, 2015)
NiTi alloy is the only practical shape memory alloy (SMA) in biomedical use because of its excellent mechanical stability and functionality. However, it is estimated that between 4.5% and 28.5% of the ...
