Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

The Effect of the Mechanical Properties of Aluminum Alloys on Their Resistance to Cavitation Erosion

Applied Sciences
The degradation of material surface structures caused by cavitation is of a mechanical nature due to cyclic local fatigue loading. Its intensity depends on both the material’s mechanical properties and its surface microstructure.

In Vitro Aligners Force Analysis in the Maxillary Arch During En‐Masse Retraction With Different Attachment Positions

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to analyse the three‐dimensional forces acting on maxillary teeth with aligners activation of en‐masse retraction based on the different attachment positions in vitro. Methods Three groups were designed for the same 0.25 mm en‐masse retraction forces with three different attachment positions.
