A influência da texturização de superfície do titânio comercialmente puro (Ticp) com jateamento de zircônia e ataque ácido com adição de nanopartículas de hidroxiapatita em ossos de baixa densidade: um estudo in vitro e in vivo

Os implantes médicos-odontológicos constituídos por titânio (Ticp) são constantemente modificados, em especial, a sua topografia, para a obtenção de melhores propriedades físico-químicas e biológicas dos tecidos periimplantares. Assim, o maior desafio atual é desenvolver uma superfície na top...

Effect of rhBMP-2 applied with a 3D-printed titanium implant on new bone formation in rabbit calvarium

J. appl. oral sci; 29 (), 2021
Abstract Objective This study sought to compare the biocompatibility of a three-dimensional (3D)-printed titanium implant with a conventional machined titanium product, as well as the effect of such implant applied with recombinant human Bone Morphogenetic Protein Type 2 (rhBMP-2) for guided bone regen...

Anclaje esquelético para el tratamiento de las anomalías de clase II y mordida abierta anterior: informe de un caso
Skeletal anchorage for the treatment of class II anomalies and anterior open bite: report of a case

El reporte de este caso tiene como objetivo demostrar la utilidad de los anclajes esqueléticos temporarios como son las miniplacas cigomáticas y los microimplantes “buccal shelf” en el tratamiento ortodóncico, en una paciente de 17 años 10 meses de edad, clase II vertical, dólicofacial, con mord...

Reconstruction of extensive sequel of frontal fracture: optimizing results

Braz. dent. sci; 24 (4), 2021
Introduction: Fractures of the frontal bone correspond to 5 to 15% of all facial fractures. This type of fracture can lead to difficulties in restoring bone congruence and to postoperative secondary aesthetic problems. Objective: This paper aims to present a c...

Titanium dioxide nanotubes added to glass ionomer cements affect S. mutans viability and mechanisms of virulence

Abstract This in vitro study evaluated the impact of TiO2 nanotubes (n-TiO2) incorporated into glass ionomer cement (GIC) on Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) characteristics at cellular and molecular levels. n-TiO2, synthesized by the alkaline method (20 nm in size), was added to Ketac Molar EasyMix® at...

Effects of clinical use of NiTi reciprocating instruments on cyclic and torsional resistance, and on roughness

Abstrac The aim of the present study was to evaluate the cyclic fatigue, torsional resistance and surface roughness of Reciproc R25 instruments in four different situations, namely as new instruments and as instruments tested after clinical preparation of one, two or three maxillary molars with four root...

Assessment of a novel bleaching agent formula containing 35% hydrogen peroxide and titanium tetrafluoride: an in vitro study

Abstract: This study developed experimental gels containing titanium tetrafluoride (TiF4) combined with commercial 35% hydrogen peroxide (HP), and evaluated bleaching efficacy and pH of the gels, and mineral content and morphology of enamel submitted to these treatments. In phase-1, different stock gels ...

Can we expect similar behavior among CuNiTi 35°C wires?

ABSTRACT Objective: This paper aims to verify the thermodynamic, mechanical and chemical properties of CuNiTi 35ºC commercial wires. Methods: Forty pre-contoured copper-nickel-titanium thermodynamic 0.017 x 0.025-in archwires with an Af temperature of 35°C were used. Eight wires from five different ...

Effect of fluoride on mechanical properties of NiTi and CuNiTi orthodontic archwires: an in vitro study

ABSTRACT Introduction: After debonding, white spot may appear on the area below the bracket, which is the early clinical sign of carious lesion. There is increased caries risk underneath and adjacent to orthodontic bands and brackets, which call for maximum use of caries preventive procedures using vari...

Effect of titanium dioxide nanoparticles on the stereological parameters of the dentate gyrus and the morphology of granular hippocampal neurons in mice

Int. j. morphol; 38 (6), 2020
SUMMARY: This study aims to investigate the Effects of Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) on the stereological parameters in the dentate gyrus and the morphology of granular hippocampal neurons in adult mice. Adult male mice (n=20, weight average: 45 g) were randomly divided into four groups inclu...
