Influence of Polymeric Materials on Osseointegration and Stability of Dental Implants: An In-vivo Resonance Frequency Analysis
Abstract: Osseointegration, the successful integration of dental implants with surrounding bone tissue, is crucial for long-term implant stability. Resonance frequency analysis (RFA) provides a valuable tool for assessing implant stability. This in-vivo study investigates the potential role of polymeric materials used in dental implants, such as surface coatings or membranes, in influencing osseointegration and RFA-measured stability. By analysing the impact of these polymers on factors like cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation …

Study of Electrochemical and Mechanical Properties of Graphene/HAp Composite Coating on Ti-13Nb-13Zr Alloy via Electrophoretic Deposition for Biomedical Application
Abstract: Titanium-13niobium-13zirconium alloy has widespread potential in biomedical applications due to its high degree of biocompatibility, favourable mechanical properties, high corrosion resistance, and high possibility of osseointegration. The surface was improved by electrophoretic deposition method using hydroxyapatite and graphene (5 g nanoHAp) (5 g nanoHAp+0.06 nanoGr) and suspended in ethanol solution at different conditions of time (1, 3, and 7 minutes) and voltage (50, 70, and 100 V). The effect of …

Dental Implant Analysis Using the Wear and Hardness Testing Method
Abstract: We will compare the number of implants from the manufacturer using either an analytical approach or a software-based approach using Minitab software regarding structural dental implants. Several factors influence a dental implant, and new bone grows. The implant surface is one of the elements that have a major impact on the quality of osteointegration. Various techniques and resources have been employed to modify an implant's surface to encourage osseointegration along …

Bone Grafting in Dentistry: From Biological Principles to Contemporary Regenerative Applications
Abstract: Bone grafting plays a pivotal role in contemporary regenerative dentistry by enabling predictable reconstruction of alveolar bone defects resulting from periodontal disease, tooth extraction, trauma, or pathology. Adequate bone volume and quality are essential prerequisites for successful implant placement, periodontal regeneration, and long-term functional and esthetic outcomes. Bone graft materials act as biological or synthetic scaffolds that facilitate new bone formation through the primary mechanisms of osteogenesis, osteoinduction, osteoconduction, and …
