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 ...

Hierarchically Patterned Polydopamine-Containing Membranes for Periodontal Tissue Engineering

Nako Nakatsuka, Song Li

Periodontitis is a common chronic inflammatory disease that affects tooth-supporting tissues. We engineer a multifunctional periodontal membrane for the guided tissue regeneration of lost periodontal tissues. The major drawback of current periodontal membr ...

Curable filler material for tubular structures

Andreas Schmocker

A radiopaque composition with low viscosity and increased photopolymerizability for application or filling of hollow structures is disclosed. Moreover, a method to apply and monitor the application and/or the photopolymerization of the composition are pres ...

Fiber density of collagen grafts impacts rabbit urethral regeneration

Peter Frey, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Hans Mattias Larsson, Elif Vardar, Kalitha Pinnagoda, Ganesh Vythilingam

There is a need for efficient and “off-the-shelf” grafts in urethral reconstructive surgery. Currently available surgical techniques require harvesting of grafts from autologous sites, with increased risk of surgical complications and added patient discomf ...

Non-setting, injectable biomaterials containing particulate hydroxyapatite can increase primary stability of bone screws in cancellous bone

Dominique Pioletti, Ulrike Kettenberger, Jorge Solana Munoz

BACKGROUND: Fracture fixation in weak bone is still a clinical challenge. Screw augmentation was shown to successfully increase their primary stability. The currently used calcium phosphate or polymeric bone cements, however, present important drawbacks su ...

Scaffold requirements for periodontal regeneration with enamel matrix derivative proteins

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

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 ...

Implant-based three-dimensional superimposition of the growing mandible in a rabbit model

The reliable assessment of craniofacial morphological changes during growth requires invariant regions for image registration. As these regions have not yet been identified in three dimensions, intra-osseous implants are required as fiducial markers for th ...

Biomechanical Role of Bone Anisotropy Estimated on Clinical CT Scans by Image Registration

Alexandre Terrier, Adeliya Latypova, Elham Taghizadeh, Philippe Büchler

Image-based modeling is a popular approach to perform patient-specific biomechanical simulations. Accurate modeling is critical for orthopedic application to evaluate implant design and surgical planning. It has been shown that bone strength can be estimat ...

Variability of the pullout strength of cancellous bone screws with cement augmentation

Dominique Pioletti

Background: orthopaedic surgeons often face clinical situations where improved screw holding power in cancellous bone is needed. Injectable calcium phosphate cements are one option to enhance fixation. Methods: paired screw pullout tests were undertaken in ...

Does locally delivered Zoledronate influence peri-implant bone formation? – Spatio-temporal monitoring of bone remodeling in vivo

Dominique Pioletti, Ulrike Kettenberger, Julien Ston

Bisphosphonates are known for their strong inhibitory effect on bone resorption. Their influence on bone formation however is less clear. In this study we investigated the spatio-temporal effect of locally delivered Zoledronate on peri-implant bone formati ...
