Soft tissue development around abutments with a circular macro-groove in healed sites of partially edentulous posterior maxillae and mandibles: a clinical pilot study
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2011)
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate soft tissue development at concave circular macro-grooved titanium abutments in healed sites. Material and methods: In a split-mouth pilot study 10 patients received two ...
Intraseptal vs. periodontal ligament anaesthesia for maxillary tooth extraction: quality of local anaesthesia and haemodynamic response
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2010)
There is no data concerning the use of the intraseptal anaesthesia (ISA) for single tooth extraction. The aims of this study were to compare the clinical efficacy and haemodynamic responses of the ISA with the periodontal ...
Impairment of cardiac autonomic control in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
(Informa Healthcare, London, 2010)
The aim of this study was to investigate autonomic cardiac control in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Fifty-five patients with sporadic ALS (28 female and 27 male; average age 56.00 +/- 10.34 years) were ...
Quantification of monomer elution and carbon-carbon double bonds in dental adhesive systems using HPLC and micro-Raman spectroscopy
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
Objectives: To quantify monomer elution from different adhesive systems using reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and correlate this elution with the ratio of carbon-carbon double bonds from monomer ...
New nanostructural biomaterials based on active silicate systems and hydroxyapatite: characterization and genotoxicity in human peripheral blood lymphocytes
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2013)
Aim To characterize and investigate the genotoxic effect of a new endodontic cement based on dicalcium- and tricalcium-silicate (CS) with hydroxyapatite (HA) on human lymphocytes. Methodology Hydrothermal treatment was ...
Impairment of acetylcholine-mediated endothelium-dependent relaxation in isolated parotid artery of the alloxan-induced diabetic rabbit
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2011)
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of type 1 diabetes mellitus (induced by a single intravenous injection of 100 mg kg(-1) of alloxan) on acetylcholine (ACh)-induced relaxation in isolated rabbit parotid gland ...
Effects of novel hydroxyapatite-based 3D biomaterials on proliferation and osteoblastic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2015)
The aim of this study was to examine the differential capacity of isolated dental pulp stem cells (SHED) cultured onto four different scaffold materials. The differential potential of isolated SHED was examined on the ...
The effect of sandblasting on adhesion of a dual-cured resin composite to methacrylic fiber posts: Microtensile bond strength and SEM evaluation
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2007)
Objectives: To evaluate the influence of different surface treatments on the microtensile bond strength of a dual-cured resin composite to fiber posts. Methods: Thirty-two glass methacrylate-based fiber posts (GC Corp.) ...
Resonance Frequency Analysis as a Reliable Criterion for Early Loading of Sandblasted/Acid-Etched Active Surface Implants Placed by the Osteotome Sinus Floor Elevation Technique
(International Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Implants, 2011)
Purpose: This study was intended to investigate, through resonance frequency analysis (RFA), the stability of implants placed in an early loading protocol via the osteotome sinus floor elevation technique in the posterior ...
TMD in class III patients referred for orthognathic surgery: Psychological and dentition-related aspects
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2014)
Objective: To investigate temporomandibular disorders (TMD), psychosocial, and occlusal variables in class III orthognathic surgery patients with respect to the control subjects, and to compare psychosocial and occlusal ...
