Respiratory Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for Disease Modeling: From Architecture to Functional Integration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Respiratory organ‐on‐a‐chip (ROC) models capture key mechanical and cellular cues of the human respiratory system, enabling quantitative dissection of disease mechanisms. This review links ROC architectures to disease modeling, functional integration, and commercialization, and proposes a decision framework that aligns model complexity with mechanistic

Biomechanical Design Application on the Effect of Different Occlusion Conditions on Dental Implants with Different Positions—A Finite Element Analysis

Applied Sciences, 2020
A dental implant is currently the most commonly used treatment for patients with lost teeth. There is no biomechanical reference available to study the effect of different occlusion conditions on dental implants with different positions.

Elastomeric Micro‐Balloons for Remote Control of Cerebral Blood Flow and Real‐Time In vivo Imaging of Rodent Brain Response to Hypoperfusion

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports the fabrication of MRI‐compatible elastomeric micro‐balloons via a multi‐step bubble casting process, where the monolithic elastomeric wall is selectively stiffened for reversible and controlled inflation and elasticity, depending on the target vessels for graded occlusion of cerebral arteries.

Does articulating study casts make a difference to treatment planning? [PDF]

, 2003
OBJECTIVE: To assess whether articulating casts in centric relation (CR) compared with intercuspal position (ICP) makes a difference to treatment planning. Design: Reliability analysis. Subjects: Ten orthodontists. METHODS: Twenty case vignettes were

Crack Repair in Hydroxyapatite Bioceramics Using an Ultraviolet Ultrafast Laser

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The study proposes an ultrafast ultraviolet laser approach to repair hidden tooth cracks, which has been preliminarily validated on HAP. Moreover, this technique aims to strengthen the native enamel structure rather than introducing a foreign filling material.

Evaluation of Marginal Fit of CAD/CAM Ceramic Crowns and Scanning Time Using Different Intraoral Scanning Systems

Journal of Functional Biomaterials
This study aimed to evaluate the scanning time and marginal fit of CAD/CAM crowns fabricated using different intraoral scanning systems (IOS) (O1—Omnicam 1.0, O2—Omnicam 2.0, PS—Primescan). A standardized, 3D-printed composite resin die with a full-crown

Cap‐oPMN: Oral Inflammatory Load Quantification Using Capillary Microfluidics and Automated Image Processing

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Quantifying oral polymorphonuclear neutrophils (oPMNs) is a clinically validated approach for assessing periodontal inflammation. However, current methods, such as manual hemocytometry and flow cytometry, are time‐consuming (>3 h), require invasive sampling, and depend on staining and complex instrumentation, making them unsuitable for point ...
