Fibroblast and bacterial adhesion on a 3D‐printed polyetheretherketone‐based implant material
Abstract This study investigated fibroblast and bacteria proliferation on polyetheretherketone (PEEK)‐implant material 3D‐printed by fused deposition modeling (FDM) in comparison to titanium (cp‐Ti) and zirconia (ZrO2). Four groups were tested, including horizontally FDM‐printed PEEK (PH), vertically printed FDM‐PEEK (printed vertically [PV]), cp‐Ti ...

ABSTRACT Objective Bristle splaying may be associated with reduced cleaning efficacy; however, the relationship between the bristle splaying index (BSI) and contact pressure (CP) during brushing with a powered toothbrush (PT) with real‐time CP control for oscillating brush head movement (range: 0.8–2.5 N) remains unknown. Methods This subgroup analysis

ABSTRACT Aim This study systematically assessed the available literature on the effect of a chlorhexidine mouthwash without alcohol (CHXalc−) compared to a chlorhexidine mouthwash with alcohol (CHXalc+) on plaque and parameters of gingivitis. Side effects and user appreciation were secondary outcomes.

ABSTRACT Aim Formation of a mineralized dentine bridge is the hallmark of successful direct pulp capping (DPC). Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and Biodentine are widely used capping materials, but in vivo evidence comparing their regenerative potential remains inconclusive. This study used a controlled murine model to compare dentine bridge formation
