Effects of immunoglobulin Y-loaded amorphous calcium phosphate on dentinal tubules occlusion and antibacterial activity

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of immunoglobulin Y (IgY)-loaded amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) (IgY@ACP) on dentinal tubule occlusion and antibacterial activity.Methodology: IgY@ACP was synthesized based on a biomimetic mineralization ...

Self-assembly of artificial microtubules [PDF]

SOFT MATTER 8, 5666-5678 (2012), 2012
Understanding the complex self-assembly of biomacromolecules is a major outstanding question. Microtubules are one example of a biopolymer that possesses characteristics quite distinct from standard synthetic polymers that are derived from its hierarchical structure.

Comparative evaluation of diode laser alone and in combination with desensitizing toothpaste in occlusion of dentinal tubules - A SEM study

Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research, 2023
Background: In regular dental practice, dentinal hypersensitivity is a common oral condition affecting the adult population. Although a variety of treatment procedures are available, there is no single method that proved to be potent in eliminating ...

Instability and front propagation in laser-tweezed lipid bilayer tubules [PDF]

Journal de Physique II 7 (1997) 139-156, 1996
We study the mechanism of the `pearling' instability seen recently in experiments on lipid tubules under a local applied laser intensity. We argue that the correct boundary conditions are fixed chemical potentials, or surface tensions \Sigma, at the laser spot and the reservoir in contact with the tubule.

Dentin tubule occlusion by a 38% silver diamine fluoride gel: an in vitro investigation

BDJ Open, 2022
Objective Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) is effective in treatment of dentin hypersensitivity and caries lesions. However, the non-viscous solution does not easily allow clinicians to control the application area.

A Simple Experimental Model to Investigate Force Range for Membrane Nanotube Formation [PDF]

Frontiers in Materials, 3, 6 (2016), 2016
The presence of membrane tubules in living cells is essential to many biological processes. In cells, one mechanism to form nanosized lipid tubules is via molecular motor induced bilayer extraction. In this paper, we describe a simple experimental model to investigate the forces required for lipid tube formation using kinesin motors anchored to DOPC ...

Photothermal Effect and Biomineralization of Black Phosphorus Nanosheet‐Composited Hydrogel Boosts Synergistic Treatment of Dentin Hypersensitivity

Advanced Science
Dentin hypersensitivity (DH), marked by exposed dentinal tubules, presents as a sharp toothache triggered by stimuli and subsides when the stimuli are removed.
