Highlights • We propose a novel mechanism of pulp repair through DPSCs autocrine signaling. • DPSCs secretome increases their viability, migration and mineralization potential. • DPSCs secretome counteracts TEGDMA-induced cytotoxicy….
Abstract Objectives Aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different sintering parameters on color reproduction, translucency and biaxial flexural strength of monolithic zirconia. Methods Translucent zirconia discs…
Abstract Objective To determine the effects of different aging methods on the degradation and flexural strength of yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (Y-TZP) Methods Sixty disc-shaped specimens ( ∅ , 12 mm;…
Abstract Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate and analyze the indentation size effect (ISE) in Vickers hardness of monolithic yttria partially stabilized zirconia (Y-TZP) dental ceramics without…
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the bone tissue response to fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) in comparison with titanium (Ti) implants after 12 weeks of implantation in…
Abstract Objectives The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of immersion time of restorative glass ionomer cements (GICs) and immersion duration in calcium chloride (CaCl 2 )…
Abstract Objectives Bioactive calcium phosphate cement (CPC) has been used widely to repair bone defects because of its excellent biocompatibility and bioactivity. However, the poor handling properties, low initial mechanical…
Abstract Objective This study aimed to investigate how the structural stress distribution in human teeth could be affected by the presence of a graded material distribution often found in nature…
Highlights • We evaluated the impact of alginate- and hyaluronic acid-based hydrogel on SCAP viability. • Hydrogel composition influenced in vitro SCAP viability and metabolic activity. • SCAPs survived in…
Abstract Objectives To investigate the variation in water sorption and solubility across a range of different core build-up materials. Methods Five materials were tested, four of which are resin-based materials…
