Design of Customized Mouthguards with Superior Protection Using Digital-Based Technologies and Impact Tests

Dominique Pioletti, Naser Nasrollahzadeh Mamaghani, Martin Broome

Background In contact sports, an impact on the jaw can generate destructive stress on the tooth-bone system. Mouthguards can be beneficial in reducing the injury risk by changing the dynamics of the trauma. The material properties of mouthguards and their ...

Evidence of a transient phase during the hydrolysis of calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite

Jacques Lemaître

In the present paper, calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (Ca-def OHAP) has been examined in a transmission electron microscope. During the observation, the initial Ca-def OHAP was seen to transform first into a transient intermediate phase, then to a final, ...

Scaffold requirements for periodontal regeneration with enamel matrix derivative proteins

John Christopher Plummer, Laurent Mirko Dejace, Matteo Gregorio Modesto Marascio, Alessandra Apicella, Peter Fischer

Periodontitis affects the attachment of natural teeth, and infection or inflammation associated with periodontitis may affect peri-implant tissues. Enamel matrix derivative (EMD) proteins provide stimulation for self-regeneration of the damaged tissue when ...

Molecular dynamics simulations of the intrinsically disordered protein amelogenin

John Christopher Plummer, Matteo Gregorio Modesto Marascio, Alessandra Apicella, Vincenzo Colangelo

Amelogenin refers to a class of intrinsically disordered proteins that are the major constituents of enamel matrix derivative (EMD), an extract of porcine fetal teeth used in regenerative periodontal therapy. Modifications in molecular conformation induced ...

The merits of ion cyclotron heating schemes for sawtooth control in tokamak plasmas

Jonathan Graves, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin

JET experiments have compared the efficacy of low-and high field side ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) as an actuator to deliberately minimise the sawtooth period. It is found that low-field side ICRH with low minority concentration is optimal for sa ...

Strontium hydroxyapatite and strontium carbonate as templates for the precipitation of calcium-phosphates in the absence and presence of fluoride

Janet Gordon Hering, Michèle Bernadette Heeb

The heterogeneous precipitation of calcium phosphates on calcium hydroxyapariLe (Ca-10(PO4)(4)OH)(2) or HAP) in the presence arid absence of fluoride is important in the formation of bone and teeth, protection against tooth decay, dental and skeletal fluor ...

Sputtered titanium oxynitride coatings for endosseous applications: Physical and chemical evaluation and first bioactivity assays

Rosendo Sanjines, Alessandro Pontearso

Titanium oxynitride coatings (TiNxO3,) are considered a promising material for applications in dental implantology due to their high corrosion resistance, their biocompatibility and their superior hardness. Using the sputtering technique, TiNxO3, films wit ...

Detection and Strain Typing of Ancient Mycobacterium leprae from a Medieval Leprosy Hospital

Stewart Cole, Pushpendra Singh

Nine burials excavated from the Magdalen Hill Archaeological Research Project (MHARP) in Winchester, UK, showing skeletal signs of lepromatous leprosy (LL) have been studied using a multidisciplinary approach including osteological, geochemical and biomole ...

Surface Modification of Biomaterials for Conjugation with Human Fetal Osteoblasts

Sandrine Gerber, Davide Städler, Françoise Borcard, Céline Marie Anne Journot, Phally Kong

Surface functionalization of hydroxyapatite (HA) and β-tricalcium phosphate (TCP) bioceramics with chemical ligands containing a pyrrogallol moiety was developed to improve the adhesion of bone cell precursors to the biomaterials. Fast and biocompatible co ...
