Bonding of Succinoxy Alkylene Methacrylates to Dental Alloys

Dental Materials Journal, 1987
Four kinds of succinoxy alkylene methacrylates with different lengths of alkylene groups were synthesized for use as bonding agents, and the bond strength of these monomers to polished dental alloys under dry and wet conditions was measured to investigate the effect of monomer structure on the bonding.

Adhesively bonded versus non-bonded amalgam restorations for dental caries [PDF]

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2009
Dental caries (tooth decay) is one of the commonest diseases which afflicts mankind, and has been estimated to affect up to 80% of people in high-income countries. Caries adversely affects and progressively destroys the tissues of the tooth, including the dental pulp (nerve), leaving teeth unsightly, weakened and with impaired function.

Memristor‐Driven Active‐Matrix Organic Light‐Emitting Diode for Energy Efficient and High‐Resolution Displays

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that memristors can replace conventional 2T–1C driving circuits with simplified 1T–1 m architectures by exploiting resistance switching. With ultra‐low switching voltages (< ±0.2 V) and multi‐level resistance states, the memristors precisely control the current injected into organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs).

Water jet as a novel technique for enamel drilling ex vivo.

PLoS ONE, 2021
To investigate the usage of a water jet for enamel drilling ex vivo, 210 individual extracted molars without lesions or fillings were collected. Then, the specimens were drilled by a water jet or a high-speed dental drill.

Bonding Effectiveness to Differently Sandblasted Dental Zirconia.

The journal of adhesive dentistry, 2015
To evaluate the effect of different mechanical pre-treatments on the bond durability to dental zirconia.Fully sintered IPS e.max ZirCAD (Ivoclar Vivadent) blocks were randomly assigned to one of 4 groups: (1) kept as-sintered (control), (2) sandblasted with 50-μm Al₂O₃(Danville), or tribochemically silica sandblasted using (3) CoJet (3M ESPE) and (4 ...

Pull‐and‐Push Nanotherapeutic Hydrogels: Scavenging Inflammatory Triggers While Driving Tissue Regeneration in Burn Wounds

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A nanounit‐assembled hydrogel employing a “pull‐and‐push” strategy simultaneously scavenges pro‐inflammatory cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and delivers regenerative therapeutics in response to burn‐induced hyperthermia. By repolarizing macrophages and promoting angiogenesis, this multifunctional platform accelerates burn wound healing, offering a blueprint for
