Progressive tension protocol for muscle strength with Kinesio tape in runners - double-blind randomized clinical trial

Abstract Introduction Kinesio tape (KT), although frequently used in sports, is still a matter of debate, and the results of studies that evaluated its effects on muscle strength (MS) in athletes are still inconclusive and contradictory. Objective To evaluate the effect of a progressive KT tension pr...

Argon plasma application on the surface of titanium implants: osseointegration study

Braz. dent. sci; 26 (4), 2023
Introduction: The development of new biomaterials with improved properties is a trend in regenerative medicine. The successful healing of implants is related to their osseointegration and the topographic geometry of their surface. Treatment with argon plasma acts on the surface of the implants, bringing ...

Class I and Class II Patients Treated with Damon System: A Study of Transversal, Sagittal and Torque Values Variations

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the transversal and anterior-posterior changes obtained in patients treated only with the Damon system. Material and Methods: 51 patients with either class I or class II division 1 sagittal relationship treated with the Damon system and the same archwire sequence were ret...

Pain factors related to dental implant surgery: A 7-day observational clinical study

Biosci. j. (Online); 39 (), 2023
This article aims to associate patient-reported pain intensity in the immediate seven days after dental implant surgery with surgical factors, sex and patient age. The sample was composed of 108 patients from a dental school in southern Brazilian, between 2018 and 2020. The variables torque, pre- and pos...

Fratura de implante dentário: relato de caso

Com o aumento da população brasileira e consequentemente o número de edêntulos realizando tratamentos reabilitadores com implantes dentários, se tornou frequente aparições de complicações como, por exemplo, sua fratura. O presente trabalho tem por objetivo apresentar as causas prováveis relacio...

Survival Analysis and Torque Loosening of Experimental Screw After Mechanical Performance for Micro Conical Abutment

ABSTRACT: The most common failure in implantology are due to mechanical instability. Torque loosening or fracture of the screws are the most frequent complications. Furthermore, the fractured screw retrieval is complicated and time-consuming. So, modifications in the design of implant systems are justifi...

Resistencia de diferentes implantes y componentes sometidos a sobre torque. Estudio in-vitro
Resistance of different implants and components subjected to high torque. An in vitro study

Objetivo: Describir las fallas en diferentes sistemas de implantes al ser sometidos a fuerzas de torsión creciente, de- terminar el torque en el cual aparece un daño medible en el implante o alguno de sus componentes y especificar la falla más frecuente. Materiales y métodos: Se realiz...

Effect of Titanium Hardness on the Integrity and Stress Concentration of External Hexagon Dental Implants

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of overtorque on integrity, strength and stress on external hexagonal implants (EH), with two different grades (N=10): conventional (C), grade 4; and modified (M), grade 4 with thermal treatment. The dimensions of EH were 3.75 x 13 mm; the specimens wer...

Relationship of the hip and trunk muscles with the dynamic knee valgus in asymptomatic young women

Rev. bras. ciênc. mov; 29 (3), 2021
The presence of severe dynamic knee valgus in asymptomatic women may be a factor related to future complaints of pain in this joint. The aim of this study is to correlate the strength levels of hip and trunk stabilizer muscles with knee valgus angles, pelvic and trunk tilt in asymptomatic young women. 22...
