Abstract Background: Mechanical properties and biocompatibility make zirconia ceramics suitable implant material. The characteristics of tooth‐color like, the ability to be machined low plaque affinity especially as a dental influence surface modification on osseointegration this material has not been extensively investigated. Purpose: Long‐term investigations with titanium implants have shown superior biomechanical results sandblasted acid‐etched (SLA) surface, demonstrating high...
Abstract Objectives: The purpose of the present study was macroscopic and microscopic failure analysis fractured zirconia dental implants. Methods: Thirteen one‐piece implants (Z‐Look3) out 170 inserted with an average in situ period 36.75±5.34 months (range from 20 to 56 months, median 38 months) were prepared for (scanning electron microscopy [SEM]) analysis. These 79 patients. patient histories compared fracture incidences identify reasons Results: Twelve these had a diameter 3.25 mm one...
Abstract Scaffolds play a key role in the field of tissue engineering. Particularly for meniscus replacement, optimal scaffold properties are critical. The aim our study was to develop novel replacement meniscal by means Emphasis put on biomechanical comparable native meniscus, nonimmunogenecity, and possibility seeding cells into cultivating them within (nontoxicity). For this purpose, ovine menisci were treated vitro self‐developed enzymatic process. Complete cell removal achieved shown...
A poly(D,L-lactic acid) surface coating (PDLLA) has been developed to optimize interactions at the implant-tissue interface. Mechanical and allergological characteristics were evaluated in present study elucidate possible indications limitations prior clinical application. Implants of stainless steel Ti-6Al-4V Co-Cr-Mo alloys coated with PDLLA, mechanical stability was studied during intramedullary implantation into rat human cadaver bones dilation coronary artery stents. Elongation...
AbstractBackground Dislocation after replacement may be caused by poor implant design or positioning, the surgical approach taken. We evaluated infl uence of head and neck on range motion stability (with respect to risk dislocation) in total hip endoprostheses. Material methods Using a test device, we determined afforded different sizes geometries for various positions. Results Increasing diameter led an enhancement as well resistance against subluxation, thus improved any movement...
Fragestellung: In der Hüftendoprothetik werden zunehmend Keramik-Keramik Gleitpaarungen eingesetzt. Ein eingeschränkter Bewegungsumfang aufgrund ungünstigen Prothesendesigns oder Implantat-Fehlpositionierung kann zu "Impingement", Luxation und mechanischem Versagen (Randabplatzer Bruch) des keramischen Pfanneneinsatzes führen. Methode: Mit einem 3-D CAD-Programm wurden an Hüftendoprothesen-Modellen verschiedene Bewegungsabläufe simuliert Einfluss von Design Position keramischer...
Abstract Several methods are available for reconstruction of bone defects due to malignant tumors. To extracorporally devitalize resected tumor‐bearing segments two methods, that is, extracorporal irradiation or autoclaving, up now. However, both have substantial disadvantages like decrease bone's mechanical strength. develop an alternative method tumor inactivation in skeletal segments, high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) was applied. Previous investigations shown human normal and cell lines as...
The acellularization of tendons using detergents (sodium dodecyl sulfate, Triton-X, tri-nitro-butyl-phosphate) is a new source scaffolds for tissue engineering in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repair. In vitro testing demonstrated that acellular tendon are biocompatible and show good biomechanical properties, but vivo confirmation these results not yet available. Therefore, the aim this study was to see if an allogenic construct colonized with autologous fibroblasts improves quality ACL...
