Restoration of human tooth enamel

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Human tooth enamel has remarkable properties but lacks self‐repair ability. Existing restorative materials cannot fully replicate enamel's microstructure and function, resulting in low restorative efficiency. This review summarizes the formation process and characteristics of enamel, and current restorative materials and future research directions are ...

Performance and Maximum Functional Masticatory Force in Patients with Dentomucosal-supported and Implant-supported Removable Partial Dentures

open access: yesRevista Cubana de Estomatología
Introduction: Due to edentulousness, masticatory performance and masticatory force decrease, which implies a disorganization and decompensation of the stomatognathic system with forces provoked by mastication, which are distributed in the bone through ...
