A randomized controlled trial of home‐applied dual‐light photodynamic therapy during supportive periodontal care (HOPE‐CP study)

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis is a common, chronic inflammatory disease that relies heavily on effective daily oral hygiene for long‐term control. Light‐based therapies have demonstrated strong antibacterial potential; however, their effectiveness in regular home use remains unexplored.

Comparison of Enamel, Dentin, and the Dentin–Enamel Junction in Horse, Dog, Wild Boar, and Macaque Using Confocal Raman Microscopy

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Confocal Raman microscopy was used to map the dentin–enamel junction (DEJ) across four mammalian species. Chemical maps highlighted variations in mineral (phosphate/carbonate) and organic (amide/CH) phase. These results provide a comparative Raman framework to link tooth microchemistry with species‐specific structure and function.

Impact of E‐Beam Sterilization on Bioglass Composite Shape Memory Scaffolds

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
Electron beam (E‐beam) sterilization is an attractive alternative to conventional methods (e.g., ethylene oxide) to sterilize medical devices such as scaffolds used to heal bone defects. Herein, the impact of E‐beam sterilization on the properties of “self‐fitting” shape memory polymer (SMP) scaffolds prepared from resorbable polyesters and a bioglass ...

A PLP‐SEC Investigation of Di(Ethylene Glycol) Methyl Ether Methacrylate Radical Polymerization Propagation Kinetics in Solution

Macromolecular Reaction Engineering, EarlyView.
The propagation rate coefficient of di(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate exhibits the same temperature dependency but is a factor of 12 higher in aqueous solution compared to bulk. Smaller increases are observed in ethanol and ethanol/water mixtures, with the value of the rate coefficient decreasing as the monomer concentration in solution is ...

Anisotropy Analysis of Bamboo and Tooth Using 4‐Angle Polarization Micro‐Spectroscopy

Nano Select, EarlyView.
Super‐resolution via orientation: spatial distribution of specific molecular vibrations are revealed at 1/20 of the diffraction limit. ABSTRACT To investigate the anisotropic properties of biomaterials, two distinct classes are considered as follows: polymer‐based (cellulose in plants) and crystalline‐based (enamel in teeth), each demonstrating ...
