Implant‐Retained Obturator for an Edentulous Patient with a Hemimaxillectomy Defect Complicated with Microstomia

Case Reports in Dentistry, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Patient. A 68‐year‐old man was operated on for squamous cell carcinoma (T3N3M0) of the maxilla creating the hemimaxillary surgical defect on right side. The remaining arch was completely edentulous. There was remarkable limitation in the oral opening with reduced perimeter of the oral cavity due to radiation and surgical scar contracture.

Intersection Complexity Quantification Considering Driver Behavior Characteristics and Subjective Cognition

Journal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Intersections with high complexity often present an increased risk of accidents, thereby reducing traffic safety. Current models for measuring intersection complexity primarily focus on objective factors that influence intersection operation. However, they fail to consider the impact of intersection complexity on driver behavior or the feedback ...

Plasma Treatment Maintains Surface Energy of the Implant Surface and Enhances Osseointegration

International Journal of Biomaterials, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The surface energy of the implant surface has an impact on osseointegration. In this study, 2 surfaces: nonwashed resorbable blasting media (NWRBM; control) and Ar‐based nonthermal plasma 30 days (Plasma 30 days; experimental), were investigated with a focus on the surface energy.
