Cell Calcification Models and Their Implications for Medicine and Biomaterial Research

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Calcification, is the process by which the tissues containing minerals are formed, occurring during normal physiological processes, or in pathological conditions. Here, it is aimed to give a comprehensive overview of the range of cell models available, and the approaches taken by these models, highlighting when and how methodological divergences arise,

BiofilmQuant: A Computer-Assisted Tool for Dental Biofilm Quantification

open access: yes, 2014
Dental biofilm is the deposition of microbial material over a tooth substratum. Several methods have recently been reported in the literature for biofilm quantification; however, at best they provide a barely automated solution requiring significant ...

Biologically Active Implants Prevent Mortality in a Mouse Sepsis Model

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A modular, triple‐action titanium implant is developed to prevent implant‐associated infections by repelling bacteria, killing pathogens, and enhancing tissue integration. Coatings with phage cocktails targeting P. aeruginosa and S. aureus show significant bacterial reduction and improved survival in a mouse sepsis model.

Natural Blue Pigment from Gardenia jasminoides Ellis (Rubiaceae) as a Dental Plaque Disclosant

open access: yes치위생과학회지, 2021
Background: Dental caries and periodontal disease are bacterial infectious disease, mainly caused by plaque, a bacterial colony deposited on the tooth surface and gum tissue. Dental plaque disclosants easily stain the dental plaque, making them effective

A Novel Core–Shell Hydrogel 3D Model for Studying Macrophage Mechanosensing and Foreign Body Giant Cell Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The foreign body response (FBR) to biomaterials is primarily driven by macrophages, which often fuse into destructive foreign body giant cells (FBGCs). To address the limited understanding of FBGC formation, a novel microscale core–shell hydrogel 3D model is developed using heterogeneous alginate‐collagen microcapsules with varying stiffness, offering ...

Metagenomic analysis of dental calculus in ancient Egyptian baboons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Dental calculus, or mineralized plaque, represents a record of ancient biomolecules and food residues. Recently, ancient metagenomics made it possible to unlock the wealth of microbial and dietary information of dental calculus to reconstruct oral ...

Preparation of Bifunctional Orthosilicophosphate MgO‐CaO‐ZnO‐P2O5‐SiO2 Glasses: in vitro Evaluation of Antibacterial Activity and Osteoblast Gene Expression Behavior

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bifunctional ZnO‐containing orthosilicophosphate glasses (SPGs) composed mainly of orthotetrahedral groups with the unique glass network structure without long‐chain units are prepared via melt‐quenching. The glasses exhibit excellent antibacterial activity and upregulate the expression of osteogenic markers by releasing inorganic ions.

Effect of age on dental plaque deposition and its control by ultrasonic scaling, dental hygiene chew, and chlorhexidine (0.2%w/v) in dogs [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary World, 2019
Background and Aim: Periodontitis is the most prevalent inflammatory dental disease caused by a lack of oral hygiene measures in domestic animals. The periodontal disease complex arises as a result of bacterial biofilm deposition termed as plaque on the ...
