Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Active Superhydrophobicity

open access: yes, 2014
A droplet of water on a lotus leaf stays spherical as a bead, and rolls very easily without leaving any trace behind; the leaf is thus protected from water and stays dry. This property is called superhydrophobicity, or « Lotus effect ». This thesis is about studying remarkable surperhydrophobic behaviors in nature and understanding their origins to ...
