Effect of surface treatments on the bond strength between additively manufactured or injection‐molded high‐performance polymers and titanium

open access: yesJournal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the effect of surface treatment and fabrication techniques of high‐performance polymers on their shear bond strength (SBS) to grade IV titanium. Materials and Methods A total of 120 pre‐milled titanium abutments were sectioned.

Navigating challenges in prosthodontic rehabilitation after long‐term delay following fibula free flap reconstruction with a unique overlay removable prosthesis and large vertical dimension increase

open access: yesJournal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract This case report highlights the experience of one maxillofacial surgical patient who delayed prosthodontic treatment for 7 years as they saved to self‐fund access to a subsidized prosthodontic service. Without the benefit of a restored opposing dentition for a prolonged period of time, maxillary occlusal plane disruption occurred as a ...

Emerging locally delivered antimicrobial and immunomodulatory approaches for the prevention/treatment of peri‐implant diseases

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Peri‐implant diseases are dysbiosis‐mediated inflammatory disorders that occur in susceptible hosts. Antimicrobials and immunomodulatory agents therefore might be pertinent as adjunctive measures in the treatment of such disorders. The aim of this narrative review was to examine the existing evidence and assess the effectiveness of emerging ...

Temperature Influence on the Creep Behavior of a Carbon Fiber/Polyetheretherketone Composite [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied and Computational Mechanics
Carbon/PEEK Fiber Composites materials have, generally, a viscoelastic behavior and the mechanical properties are time dependent. These materials have gained an explosive use in the last decades, hence the need to determine their mechanical properties as

Porous Titanium surfaces to control bacteria growth: mechanical properties and sulfonated polyetheretherketone coating as antibiofounling approaches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Here, titanium porous substrates were fabricated by a space holder technique. The relationship between microstructural characteristics (pore equivalent diameter, mean free-path between pores, roughness and contact surface), mechanical properties (Young’s

Zirconia, titanium, and polyetheretherketone implant abutments show equal long‐term clinical success—A systematic review and network meta‐analysis

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Hundreds of millions of people have one or more missing teeth. Consequently, a substantial number of patients undergo implant therapy each year. However, technical complications and soft tissue inflammation associated with the implant abutment or the type of restoration can lead to bone loss and, ultimately, implant failure.

Polyetheretherketone bioactivity induced by farringtonite

open access: yesScientific Reports
AbstractPolyetheretherketone (PEEK) is considered as an excellent biomaterial for bone grafting and connective tissue replacement. The clinical potential is, however, limited by its bioinertness, poor osteoconduction, and weak antibacterial activity.
