Abstract Objective To investigate the relationship between the structures of polyphenolic compounds found in grape seed extract (GSE) and their activity in cross-linking dentin collagen in clinically relevant settings. Methods…
Highlights • We have separated two fractions of EMD proteins. • One fraction included proteins with M r of 8–55 kDa; another fraction proteins with M r < 8 kDa….
Abstract Objective The goal of this investigation was to assess validity of predictive models of stress relaxation in dental polymers when applied to extended master curves generated from short time…
Highlights • We implemented a solvent evaporation method to produce nanoclusters used in composite resins. • Nanoclusters functionalized with silane agents showed improved mechanical properties than bare silica nanoparticles. •…
Highlights • Dentin–composite interfaces were evaluated using cyclic diametral compression. • Silorane-based systems had higher fatigue resistance than methacrylate-based ones. • Reasonable lifetime of restored teeth was predicted by finite…
Graphical abstract Highlights • The ion-releasing resin induces mineral precipitation at the resin–dentine–dentin interface. • Biomimetic analogues phosphorylate acid-etched dentin and remineralize the hybrid layer. • Remineralization through biomimetic primers…
Highlights • An in situ dental biofilm model was used to evaluate the novel glass ionomer cement (GIC) containing dimethylaminododecyl methacrylate (DMADDM). • DMADDM could increase surface charge density but…
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the probability of survival and failure modes of implant-supported resin nanoceramic relative to metal-ceramic crowns. Methods Resin nanoceramic molar crowns (LU) (Lava Ultimate, 3M ESPE, USA)…
Highlights • UV-irradiation for the hydrophilization of dental implants was investigated. • Original, out-of-the-box titanium, zirconia, and PEEK implants were hydrophobic. • UV-A switched solely implants with anatase coating into…
Abstract Objective Chipping and/or delamination represent a clinical failure of porcelain fused to zirconia (PFZ) prostheses. Causes and solutions have not been completely clarified. The present study was aimed at…
