Graphical abstract Highlights • 2–20 ppm of eugenol and Zn ions were released from ZOE. • Zn ions had cytotoxicity to dental pulp cells and macrophages. • Eugenol induced immunomodulatory/anti-inflammatory…
Abstract Objective Strength is one of the preferred parameters used in dentistry for determining clinical indication of dental restoratives. However, small dimensions of CAD/CAM blocks limit reliable measurements with standardized…
Graphical abstract Highlights • Direct Laser Interference Patterning was applied to introduce micrometric periodical topographies on the surface of 3Y-TZP. • Pattern geometry and roughness can be tuned independently by…
Abstract Objective To study the influence of the different class II mesio-occlusal-distal (MOD) cavity shape on the stress and strain distributions in adhesive indirect restorations, using numerical finite element analysis…
The authors would like to inform the readers of a needed clarification in this article: Analyzing the difference types of tooth-supported fixed dental prosthesis (FDPs) in part II of the…
Highlights • Exposure of adhesives to high temperatures resulted in a reduction of properties. • Loss of stiffness of the retainer under ordinary clinical conditions may affect treatment stability. •…
Abstract Objective The objective was to investigate the potential of graphene (Gp) to induce odontogenic and osteogenic differentiation in dental pulp stem cells (DPSC). Methods Gp was produced by chemical…
Graphical abstract Highlights • Use of azide-alkyne click reaction to generate triazolium functional POSS. • Use of thiol-ene/methacrylate polymerization to prepare dental materials with low shrinkage strain. • Lower deterioration…
Abstract Objective Resin monomers such as 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) induce apoptosis because of the excess formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The portion of ROS including superoxide anions, hydrogen peroxide…
Abstract Objective Strength is one of the preferred parameters used in dentistry for determining clinical indication of dental restoratives. However, small dimensions of CAD/CAM blocks limit reliable measurements with standardized…
