The mechanical properties of dental implants are critical for their durability. The purpose of this study was to determine the maximum force required to induce full pull-out of a titanium implant from the bone and to characterize the mechanical behav...
This study characterized the biological response of MG-63 cells to synthetic, hydroxyapatite scaffolds (HAsint) fabricated via fused filament fabrication. Scaffolds were compared to 2D plate-adherent cultures using six assays: cell morphology and dis...
In this study, a biodegradable Mg-Zn-Nd-Gd alloy was processed via multi-directional forging (MDF) to evaluate its microstructural evolution, mechanical performance, and corrosion behavior. Electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) analysis was condu...
The use of saponins with biosurfactant, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer properties is limited by their toxicity and bioavailability. This study focused on the fabrication, characterization, and bioactivity of crude tea saponin (TS) an...
Despite the significant ongoing development of fixation materials, plate breakages still occur after osteosynthesis of the mandibular condyles. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the complications caused by fixation material breakages in the hop...
In the pursuit of addressing the persistent challenge of bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation in dental care, this study investigates the efficacy of electric current as an alternative strategy, specifically focusing on its application in dental...
This randomized, prospective clinical trial was conducted to compare the effectiveness of the oscillating chitosan brush (OCB) and an air-abrasive device (AAD) in improving clinical outcomes during non-surgical management of peri-implant mucositis. F...
Alginate-hydroxyapatite (AL) scaffolds modified with fibronectin (FN) or bioactive glass (BGMS10) have recently been characterized for their physicochemical properties and proposed as promising candidates for bone regeneration. Here, we present their...
Impaired bone regeneration and wound healing represent a major clinical and socioeconomic challenge for our aging and multimorbid population. Fracture and wound healing share many common features, with transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) bei...
The perforation of the tympanic membrane is a world-wide clinical problem resulting from trauma or infection and requiring effective regeneration methods. In recent years researchers have focused on natural polymers as promising materials for restori...
