Graphical abstract Theoretical model of the formation of oxidative stress in cells exposed to dental resin monomers. Abstract Objective Oxidative stress induced by compounds of dental composites like 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate…
Highlights • Three stranded wires demonstrated higher mechanical properties compared to fiber retainers. • The application of different resins has no effect on tensile properties of EverStick group. • Hardness…
Highlights • Ormocers demonstrated no difference in success compared to conventional composites. • Although non-significant, the global failures was higher for ormocers. • A significantly higher failure rate due to…
Abstract Objective The purpose of this study was to incorporate EgMA, an antibacterial monomer into two commercial dental adhesive systems for their application in endodontic restoration with the aim to…
Abstract Objective To study the in vivo osteoinductive potential, bone-bonding ability (bioactivity) and bone biomineralization of current hydraulic calcium silicate cements used as graft materials and placed in contact with…
Graphical abstract Highlights • Dental adhesive containing zwitterionic monomer shows tuning neutralization rate. • Resin exhibits faster photo-polymerization rate and higher conversion simultaneously. • Polymer shows improved neutralization rate without…
Abstract Objective A new adhesive containing nanoparticles of amorphous calcium phosphate (NACP) with calcium (Ca) and phosphate (P) ion rechargeability was recently developed; however, it was not antibacterial. The objectives…
Abstract Objective A promising strategy in regenerative endodontics is the combination of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) with an appropriate biomaterial substrate. The effects of zinc and zinc containing…
Graphical abstract Highlights • Graphene oxide-coated titanate on the surface of Ti implants was prepared. • The structure was excellent vehicles for dexamethasone delivery. • The structure with dexamethasone promoted…
Abstract Objective This paper presents and verifies a simple predictive formula for laboratory shrinkage-stress measurement in dental composites that can account for the combined effect of material properties, sample geometry…
Abstract Objective Resin monomers released from unpolymerized dental adhesives or composites and bacterial products like lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or lipoteichoic (LTA) are simultaneously present in specific applications following treatment of deep…
Highlights • The experimental cement, TCS 50, does re-mineralize demineralized dentin. • The incorporation of biomimetic analogs promoted re-mineralization upon 6-week storage. • Re-mineralization was incomplete at 6 weeks, even…
Graphical abstract Highlights • Tensile creep and 750 °C heat treatment induce nanovoiding in dental porcelain. • Transmission electron microscopy study for local distribution and size assessment. • Small angle…
Abstract Objectives Characterisation of the interaction between crack extension, crack stabilisation and stress/strain relaxation in the polymeric matrix, the interplay between stress corrosion cracking and the mechanical response of a…
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to compare the physical and mechanical properties of stereolithography (SLA)- manufactured alumina ceramics of different composition to those of subtractive- manufactured ceramics…
