Abstract Objective To investigate the effect of collagen cross-links on the stability of adhesive properties, the degree of conversion within the hybrid layer, cytotoxicity and the inhibition potential of the…
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the influence of temperature of evaporation in adhesive systems with different solvents on the apparent modulus of elasticity and mass change of macro-hybrid layers modified by…
Highlights • A novel method to develop a bone substitute is shown. • Bioactive glasses are used as precursor to form calcium phosphate cements. • Strontium addition in the glass…
Highlights • We developed experimental resin modified glass ionomer cement liquids (RMGICs). • We tested water-uptake, desorption, dimensional change and other properties. • The experimental cements were tested and compared…
Highlights • The increase in 1 nm (from 6 to 7) increased the Mg adsorption. • Mg adsorption did not alter the mesoporous surface topography. • Osteogenesis is promoted by…
Abstract Objectives To investigate the effect of three adhesive primers on the morphology, chemistry and peel bond strength of two maxillofacial silicone elastomers with commercially pure titanium (cpTi). Methods The…
Abstract Objectives Eugenol has been used in dentistry due to its ability to inhibit the growth of a range of microorganisms, including facultative anaerobes commonly isolated from infected root canals….
Abstract Objective This study assessed a 6 month resin/dentin bond’s durability and cytotoxic effect of Zn-doped model dentin adhesives. The mechanical and physicochemical properties were also tested. Methods A model…
Highlights • A novel radiopaque fit-testing material for μCT observation was developed. • Prosthetic fit can be observed using a fit-testing material with 20 wt% zirconium. • The material developed…
Abstract Purpose To investigate the influence of surface damage on the fatigue behavior of zirconia under two different loading conditions. Materials and methods One hundred twenty zirconia bar-shaped received either…
