Avaliação da atividade antimicrobiana de biomateriais nanocompósitos de poliamida 6 com nanopartículas de trimetafosfato decoradas com nanopartícula de prata

O uso de novos materiais nanocompósitos para fabricação de dispositivos protéticos, matrizes para preenchimento de defeitos ósseos, proteção do tecido pulpar de dentes e túbulos dentinários expostos pode colaborar significativamente na qualidade de vida da população. Objetivo: Realizar o proce...

Comparison of two different biomaterials in the bone regeneration (15, 30 and 60 days) of critical defects in rats

Acta cir. bras; 36 (6), 2021
ABSTRACT Purpose To evaluate and compare two types of different scaffolds in critical bone defects in rats. Methods Seventy male Wistar rats (280 ± 20 grams) divided into three groups: control group (CG), untreated animals; biomaterial group 1 (BG1), animals that received the scaffold implanted hydrox...

Influence of the Vehicle on the Tissue Reaction and Biomineralization of Fast Endodontic Cement

ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the tissue response and the biomineralization ability of CER prepared with epoxy resin or water compared to Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA). Material and Methods: Polyethylene tubes containing materials or empty tubes for control were inserted into the subcutaneous t...

In vitro evaluation of hydroxyapatite, chitosan, and carbon nanotube composite biomaterial to support bone healing

Hydroxyapatite, chitosan, and carbon nanotube composite biomaterial were developed to improve bone healing. Previous studies suggested that a combination of biomaterials and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can potentially help promote bone regeneration. In the present study, we first developed hydroxyapati...

Integration of heterologous bone matrix associated with polymethylmethacrylate in induced tibial bone defects. An experimental study in rabbits

Acta cir. bras; 36 (7), 2021
ABSTRACT Purpose To analyze and compare the reactions at the interface between the composite, composed of fragmented heterologous mineralized bone matrix (MOMHF) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), and the rabbit's tibias, through macroscopic evaluation and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in different...

Expression of Matrix Metalloproteinases-8 and Myeloperoxidase in Pulp Tissue after Pulpotomy with Calcium Silicate Cements

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the pulp tissue of rat molars after pulpotomies with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), BiodentineTM (BDT) and calcium hydroxide (CH) mixed with sterile saline solution (24 hours, 72 hours, 7 days and 15 days), through correlating MPO activity with active neutrophils and M...

Biomaterials for bone regeneration: an orthopedic and dentistry overview

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 54 (9), 2021
Because bone-associated diseases are increasing, a variety of tissue engineering approaches with bone regeneration purposes have been proposed over the last years. Bone tissue provides a number of important physiological and structural functions in the human body, being essential for hematopoietic mainte...

Técnica de apexificación con un sustituto bioactivo de la dentina en una sola sesión: caso clínico
Apexification technique with a bioactive dentin substitute in a single session: a clinical case

Las piezas con necrosis pulpar y ápice abierto son un desafío de la práctica clínica endodóntica. Durante mucho tiempo estas piezas han sido tratadas con la técnica de apexificación con hidróxido de calcio. Esta técnica estimula la formación de una barrera calcificada a nivel apical, pero a par...

Tratamiento regenerativo de lesión interproximal consecuente a fractura del tercio medio en diente permanente joven
Regenerative treatment of interproximal lesion following middle third fracture in a young permanent tooth

Se presenta un caso clínico de fractura radicular del tercio medio, de pieza 2.1 con desplazamiento de los cabos de fractura. Es tratado con un novedoso procedimiento terapéutico, mediante la utilización de un biomaterial de tercera generación osteoconductor, osteogénico y osteoinductor. Se obtiene ...
