Abstract Background Local anaesthesia plays a key role in many aspects of dentist’s work. The required skills to perform successfully are acquired at university. To take advantage the possibilities for new teaching formats, blended learning concept local course was developed. aim study compare effectiveness face-to-face, and e-learning by assessing students’ knowledge gain, performance practical satisfaction with course. Methods All participants ( n = 37) were randomly allocated into three...

ABSTRACT Introduction The aim of this study was to evaluate perfusion parameters and clinical features healthy implants affected by peri‐implant disease in patients who had undergone microvascular jaw reconstruction. Methods A total 25 with 92 placed transplants were included. Of these, 68 showed tissue, 12 mucositis, diagnosed peri‐implantitis. Peri‐implant measured mesially distally at the implant shoulder using laser Doppler flowmetry tissue spectrophotometry (LDF‐TS), followed a...
Cardiac patches for repairing myocardial defects require mechanically stable materials that prevent bleeding and can be implanted via suturing. The current clinical standard, bovine pericardial (BPPs), serve this purpose but do not degrade or integrate with the myocardium, limiting their long-term effectiveness. Therefore, we have developed Reinforced engineered tissue Patch (RCPatch). This multimaterial patch consists of a stiffness-tuned, cardiomyocyte-infiltrated 3D metamaterial...
Aim: This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the effects of implant designs on primary stability different bone densities and bony defects. Methods: Five types (tapered-tissue-level, tissue-level, zirconia-tissue-level, bone-level, BLX implants) were used this assessment. The implants inserted into four artificial blocks representing varying bone-density groups: D1, D2, D3, D4. Aside from control group, three defects prepared. Using resonance frequency analysis torque-in -out values, each was...
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy fully guided orthodontic mini-implant (OMI) placements supported by tooth- (TBGs) or gingiva-borne silicone guides (GBGs) based on virtually superimposed lateral cephalograms virtual plaster models. Materials and methods Lateral corresponding models were for planning OMI positions; TBGs GBGs fabricated (each, n = 10). A total 40 OMIs inserted in a paramedian position into palate 20 human cadavers. Postoperative cone-beam...
An increase in rivaroxaban therapies is associated with increased numbers of postoperative bleeding despite the use hemostatic sponges, which are currently gold standard treatment. VIVO has shown promising results, favorable tissue properties, and ease application, although it not yet been used oral cavity. The aim this study was to evaluate properties extraction sockets 31 rodents compare gelatin sponge (GSP) therapy. At concentrations 264.10 ± 250.10 ng/mL, 62 were generated, treated GSP....
Abstract Background The aim of this study was to determine the values different perfusion parameters- such as oxygen saturation, relative amount hemoglobin, and blood flow- in healthy subjects compared patients with gingivitis a non-invasive measurement method. Methods A total 114 were enrolled separated into (50) without (64) based on clinical examination. Gingival measured at 22 points maxilla mandible using laser Doppler flowmetry tissue spectrophotometry (LDF-TS) “oxygen see” device. All...
The purpose of this pilot porcine cadaver study was to evaluate the feasible temperature thresholds, which affect osteocyte viability and bone matrix in a preclinical setup, assessing potential thermal necrosis for implant removal further vivo investigations.After bed preparation upper lower jaw, effects on were determined, using two tempering pistons with integrated thermocouples. To threshold time intervals leading necrosis, one piston generated warm temperatures at 49 56 °C 10 s other...
The purpose of this study was twofold: first, to evaluate the precision guided orthodontic mini-implant (OMI) placement planned on virtual superimposition plaster models and lateral cephalograms with regard bone support and, second, investigate effects silicone guide extension.A total 40 OMIs were placed in paramedian area anterior palates 20 cadaver heads. Digitalized corresponding superimposed for planning OMI positions, tooth-supported (TS) soft-tissue-supported (STS) templates...
