Stress distribution in the cervical region of an upper central incisor in a 3D finite element model
The aim of this study was to evaluate the stress distribution in the cervical region of a sound upper central incisor in two clinical situations, standard and maximum masticatory forces, by means of a 3D model with the highest possible level of fidelity ...

FEM and Von Mises analysis on prosthetic crowns structural elements: evaluation of different applied materials [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to underline the mechanical properties of dental single crown prosthodontics materials in order to differentiate the possibility of using each material for typical clinical condition and masticatory load.

Validity and sensitivity of a human cranial finite element model: Implications for comparative studies of biting performance [PDF]
Finite element analysis (FEA) is a modelling technique increasingly used in anatomical studies investigating skeletal form and function. In the case of the cranium this approach has been applied to both living and fossil taxa to (for example) investigate

The Irisin/Ce‐MBGNs delivery system can slowly release myokine Irisin for vital pulp therapy. Irisin/Ce‐MBGNs can enhance mitochondrial function and promote the differentiation of inflammatory macrophages toward M2‐Mφ, thereby regulating the immune response mechanism of inflamed dental pulp.

Masticatory muscle pain before, during, and after treatment with orthopedic protraction headgear: A pilot study [PDF]
Protraction headgear has been used in conjunction with a palatal expansion appliance to correct Class III malocclusion with maxillary deficiency and/or mandibular prognathism. In general, 800 gm of orthopedic force is used to protract the maxilla, and 75%

CCS‐RSF@PRP hydrogel is engineered to structurally and functionally mimic the blood clot by integrating PPR, CCS, and RSF nanofibers through in situ activation of PRP. In a rat periodontitis model, CCS‐RSF@PRP hydrogel effectively promotes periodontal tissue repair, attributing to neutralizing the multiple proinflammatory mediators, thus rebuilding a ...

The Effects of Chewing Exercises on Masticatory Function after Surgical Orthodontic Treatment
Recovery of oral function is one of the most important objectives of orthognathic surgery. This study investigated the effects of a chewing exercise on chewing patterns and other oral functions after sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO).
