Detection of early osteogenic commitment in primary cells using Raman spectroscopy [PDF]

, 2017
Major challenges in the development of novel implant surfaces for artificial joints include osteoblast heterogeneity and the lack of a simple and sensitive in vitro assay to measure early osteogenic responses.

Transcutaneous osseointegration for amputees

OTA International
Abstract Transcutaneous osseointegration for amputees (TOFA) is an evolving technology that has the potential to revolutionize the interface between the amputee and their prosthesis, showing potential at many levels of amputation.

Computer Vision for Substrate Detection in High‐Throughput Biomaterial Screens Using Bright‐Field Microscopy

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
It is known that biomaterial properties (e.g., shape, chemistry) direct how the body reacts to implanted materials. However, what features cause specific responses is not well known. High‐throughput screening can identify instructive properties, but manual feature segmentation in large brightfield image datasets limits discovery.

Systemic administration of strontium ranelate to enhance the osseointegration of implants: systematic review of animal studies

International Journal of Implant Dentistry, 2018
The literature states that Strontium (Sr) is able to simultaneously stimulate bone formation and suppress bone resorption. Recent animal studies suggest that the systemic administration of Sr, in the form of strontium ranelate (SRAN), would enhance the ...

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

Maxillary overdentures supported by four or six implants in the anterior region: 10‐year randomized controlled trial results

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 36-44, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim To evaluate bar‐supported maxillary implant overdenture treatment when supported by either four or six implants after 10 years. Materials and Methods Edentulous subjects with maxillary denture complaints and ample bone volume to facilitate implants in the anterior region of the maxilla were planned for implant overdenture treatment ...

Novel functionalized Ti6Al4V scaffold for preventing infection and promoting rapid osseointegration

Materials & Design, 2023
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is the most common and radical treatment for end-stage hip disease. Prosthesis loosening and periprosthetic infection are the most serious complications after THA, which may lead to prosthetic dysfunction.

Influence of low insertion torque values on survival rate of immediately loaded dental implants: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 158-169, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim The aim was to systematically evaluate the effect of low insertion torque values on the survival rate of immediately loaded dental implants. Materials and Methods The protocol was registered with PROSPERO (ID CRD42020189499). An electronic search was performed in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled ...

Ti$_{1-x}$Au$_x$ Alloys: Hard Biocompatible Metals and Their Possible Applications [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
The search for new hard materials is often challenging from both theoretical and experimental points of view. Furthermore, using materials for biomedical applications calls for alloys with high biocompatibility which are even more sparse. The Ti$_{1-x}$Au$_x$ ($0.22 \leq x \leq 0.8$) exhibit extreme hardness and strength values, elevated melting ...

Utilizing micro-computed tomography to evaluate bone structure surrounding dental implants: a comparison with histomorphometry [PDF]

, 2013
Although histology has proven to be a reliable method to evaluate the ossoeintegration of a dental implant, it is costly, time consuming, destructive, and limited to one or few sections.
