Growth dynamic of allogeneic and autogenous bone grafts in a vertical model

Braz. dent. j; 29 (4), 2018
Abstract Several techniques have been proposed for vertical bone regeneration, and many of them use bone autogenous and allogeneic grafts. The purpose of this study was to compare demineralised freeze-dried bone allografts (DFDBA), fresh-frozen (FF) allografts, autogenous bone grafts to find differences ...

Oval versus circular-shaped root canals: bond strength reached with varying post techniques

Braz. dent. j; 29 (4), 2018
Abstract The aim of this study was to compare the bond strength (BS) of glass fiber posts (GFP) luted to oval and circular-shaped root canals rehabilitated using varying post techniques, at different intraradicular levels. Ninety 16-mm-long roots of human mandibular premolars, classified either as having...

Characterization of residual stresses in veneering ceramics for prostheses with zirconia framework

Braz. dent. j; 29 (4), 2018
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE or α) and glass transition temperature (Tg) of three veneering ceramics used with zirconia frameworks of full-arch fixed prostheses. The generation of residual stresses and linear contraction af...

Synthesis, antibacterial activity and DNA interactions of lanthanide(IU) complexes of N(4)-substituted thiosemicarbazones

Univ. sci; 23 (2), 2018
Abstract This paper reports the synthesis and detailed characterization of six novel lanthanide complexes of La(III), Eu(III) and Nd(III) with N(4)-substituted thiosemicarbazones derived from the 2-carboxybenzaldehyde. The IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopic studies confirmed the coordination of the thi...

Pesqui. vet. bras; 38 (8), 2018
Otitis externa is a common complaint in dogs. Bacteria and yeasts are commonly involved and may perpetuate inflammatory reactions inside the ear canal. Otoscopy, cytological examination of secretion and microbiological culture embody forms of diagnosis. Cytology also has great use in accessing treatment ...

Determination of the reference interval for the activity of NAcetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) in urine of healthy dogs

Pesqui. vet. bras; 38 (8), 2018
The diagnosis of acute kidney injury by evaluating the activity of urinary enzymes is an important tool especially for its precocity in relation to methods of assessment of renal function considered late as the installation of injury precedes the function change. This study was performed to determine the...
