Materials Methods: Two abutment groups were tested: (ZirAce, Acucera, Seoul, Korea)...
This study aimed at evaluating the visible light mediated antimicrobial and osteogenic applications of noble metal, such as gold (Au) platinum (Pt) coated titania (TiO2) nanotubes (NTs). In this study, Au Pt nanoparticles (NPs) were deposited on anodized 100 nm TiO2 NTs by ion plasma sputtering. The NPs mainly top surface layer showed absorbance peaks around 470 600 region used in seen from characterization. From results antibacterial activity test, that excellent under irradiation due to...
The infection control of implants is one the hot issues in field medicine and dentistry. In this study, we prepared gold nanorod-sputtered titania nanotubes on titanium surface, which main component implant material, aimed to estimate remote-controlled tetracycline release resulting antibacterial effects using near-infrared laser irradiation. Gold nanorods by ion plasma sputtering (aspect ratio = 1:3) showed optical properties like those chemically synthesized nanorods, exhibiting...
The aims of this study were to estimate the machinability and machining accuracy polymer-based CAM blocks using merlon fracture test model specified in ISO 18675: 2022. Three hybrid disc blanks (MazicDuro, HC Disk, Enamic) three polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) (PMMA PMMA Block, MazicTemp Hybrid) tested study. was evaluated by assigning scores according range merlons with areas divided ten vertical planes. superimposing methods via CAD reference data specimen data. Within limits study, a...
It has been reported that Janus tyrosine kinase (JAK)-dependent signaling pathways play a critical role in the pathogenesis of numerous malignancies and immune reactions, inhibition JAK implicated cell growth inhibition. The which on osteoclast differentiation anti-bone resorptive activity is not well understood. In this study, we investigated effects pan-JAK inhibitor, pyridone 6, bone-resorption vitro ex vivo. Pyridone 6 inhibited mouse bone marrow macrophage (BMM) cultures stimulated by...
The aim of this study was to estimate the flexural properties three kinds experimental fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) posts and evaluate their potential use as posts. Experimental FRC were fabricated with glass, aramid, UHMWP fibers. Commercial used for comparison. A three-point bending test performed at a crosshead speed 1 mm/min. glass fiber showed significantly higher strengths moduli than aramid demonstrated superior toughness commercial displayed stiff, strong brittle features, while...
