Hydrolytic stability of composite repair bond
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2007)
The hydrolytic stability of composite repairs is a desirable property. In the present study, the composite repair microtensile bond strength, failure mode distribution, and nanoleakage occurrence before and after thermocycling ...
Survivin gene promoter polymorphism-31G/C as a risk factor for keratocystic odontogenic tumor development
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2012)
Several single nucleotide polymorphisms in survivin gene promoters, notably -31G/C, have been shown to modulate the expression and activity of the survivin protein. Consequently, the -31G/C polymorphism has been identified ...
Evaluation of the adhesion of fiber posts cemented using different adhesive approaches
(Wiley-Blackwell, Malden, 2008)
The aim of this study was to investigate the adhesion of fiber posts cemented with luting agents that utilize three currently available adhesive approaches: etch-and-rinse, self-etch, and self-adhesive. Forty-two intact ...
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 ...
Push-out bond strength of an experimental self-adhesive resin cement
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2013)
The adhesion of fiber posts luted with simplified adhesive systems has been a matter of great interest over the past years. The aim of this study was to assess the post retentive potential of experimental self-adhesive ...
TLR2, TLR3, TLR4 and CD14 gene polymorphisms associated with oral lichen planus risk
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2013)
The aim of this study was to assess whether polymorphisms in toll-like receptor (TLR) and cluster of differentiation 14 (CD14) genes are associated with oral lichen planus (OLP) risk and clinical course of the disease. The ...
Genomic instability and tumor-specific DNA alterations in oral leukoplakias
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2009)
Leukoplakias, clinically identifiable premalignant lesions, often precede oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Identification of leukoplakias that have the potential for transformation to malignancy is a key clinical ...
Quantitative micro-Raman assessment of dentine demineralization, adhesive penetration, and degree of conversion of three dentine bonding systems
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2008)
Unreacted monomers in adhesive systems may cause a reduction in material properties, an increase in the long-term instability of the restoration, and pulpal irritation. The degree of dentine demineralization, adhesive ...
Prevalence, severity, and clinical determinants of oral impacts in older people in Bosnia and Herzegovina
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2012)
This study aimed to assess the prevalence and the severity of oral impacts and the relationships between oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and clinical measures of oral function in a sample of older adults in ...
Influence of the endothelium on the vasorelaxant response to acetylcholine and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide in the isolated rabbit facial artery
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2003)
The aim was to examine the influence of the endothelium on acetylcholine (ACh) and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) functional responses in the isolated glandular branch of rabbit facial artery precontracted with ...
