Human embryonic stem cells for bone engineering applications
(2011-05-26)
The human skeleton represents the supporting structure of the organism and accounts for about 20 percent of the total body mass. Despite its intrinsic capacity to regenerate and self-repair, this ability is limited and ...
On osseointegration in response to controlled surface nanotopography
(2021-05-20)
Knowledge about the biological responses provoked by the surface modification of titanium implants on the nanoscale is still in its infancy. Although in vitro studies claim superior effects considering higher adhesion and ...
On the pathogenesis of infections associated with percutaneous osseointegrated orthopaedic implants
(2018-11-22)
Orthopaedic implants enable the restitution of locomotor function and improve the quality of life of many people. However, biomaterial-associated infection may occur due to the propensity of microorganisms to adhere and ...
On loading protocols and abutment use in implant dentistry. Clinical studies.
(2016-02-09)
ABSTRACT
Research questions: The influence of immediate or delayed loading and the use of abutments in implant dentistry with regard to peri-implant tissues and the effect of risk parameters.
Methodology: Fifty partially ...
On a novel technique for preparation and analysis of the implant surface and its interface to bone
(2008-06-13)
The ultrastructural and biomechanical properties of the bone-implant interface are important factors for implant performance. For further understanding of the osseointegration process novel tools enabling analysis of the ...
Molecular and cellular interactions on noble metal nanopatterned surfaces − applications towards bone, soft tissue and infection control
(2014-05-09)
Biomaterial-associated infection is recognised as one of the main risks for failure of medical devices. The presence of a foreign material in tissues has been suggested to compromise the ability of host cells to eradicate ...
The percutaneous implant. The effects of design, host site and surgery on the tissue response
(2018-02-14)
This research project focuses on the multiple challenges associated with implants that breach the skin. The role of device design, host site, and surgical approach on tissue response and outcome are evaluated, experimentally ...
Osteocytes as indicators of bone quality - multiscale structure-composition characterisation of the bone-implant interface
(2017-09-01)
By virtue of certain design features, bone anchored metal implants can be made to elicit a strong initial osteogenic response, i.e., the amount of bone formed. While quantitative differences are often lost at longer follow ...
Effects of antiresorptive agents on inflammation and bone regeneration in different osseous sites - experimental and clinical studies
(2014-09-29)
ABSTRACT
The biological mechanisms involved in bone regeneration in osteoporotic bone and the effect of antiresorptive drugs in relation to surgically inserted biomaterials are not fully understood. Improved osseointegration ...
The effect of tobacco exposure on bone healing and the osseointegrationof dental implants
(2017-05-17)
Background: The mechanisms behind the impact of smoking on
osseointegration are not fully understood. Aim: To correlate the clinical and
molecular aspects of osseointegration in smokers compared with non-smokers.
Methodology: ...
