The choice of ceramic-on-ceramic coupling in total hip prosthesis has advantages over
couplings with other combinations of materials that use polyethylene and metal materials in …

Objectives. The purpose of this work was to determine the influence of residual alumina after
sand blasting treatment in titanium dental implants. This paper studied the effect of alumina …

Background: Individuals with pathologic conditions and restorative deficiencies might benefit
from a combinatorial approach encompassing stem cells and dental implants; however, due …

Titanium and its alloys are widely used in medicine thanks to their favorable physical,
chemical properties and relatively good biocompatibility with human cells and tissues. A …

Hydroxyapatite (HAP), an apatite of calcium phosphate with the chemical formula (Ca 10
(PO4) 6 (OH) 2) is one of the most valuable bioceramic materials with excellent bone-type …

The research was focused on alternative treatment techniques, separating immediate and
long-term reconstruction stages. The work involved development of ceramic materials …

Implant outcomes in comparison to a natural tooth in a rat model using systemic alendronate
and zoledronate acid drug administrations were assessed. Fifty-four Sprague–Dawley rats …

Materials and Methods: A total of 108 titanium discs (10 mm× 2 mm ASTM B348) were
included in the study, and their surface topography was characterized. The test specimens …

Previous studies have shown that the most reliable way to evaluate the success of an
implant is by bone-to-implant contact (BIC). Recent techniques allow modifications to the …

Implant-based rehabilitations are a predictable treatment option with high survival rates.
Implant failure can occur, although rarely, as insufficient osseointegration occurs within the …
