There has been significant progress in implant research during last the 10 years (2005–
2015). The increase in the elderly population coupled with a lack of proper physical activity …

This study systematically investigated the effect of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP)
on the microstructure, mechanical, corrosion, nano-tribological properties and …

Ti6Al4V-alloy is commonly used in dental and orthopedic applications where tribochemical
reactions occur at material/bone interface. These reactions are one of the main concerns …

Dental caries is a biofilm-mediated, sugar-driven, multifactorial, dynamic disease that results
in the phasic demineralization and remineralization of dental hard tissues. Despite scientific …

Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate surface changes on dental implant systems
and ions release after immersion in fluoride and hydrogen peroxide. Methods Ten implant …

Statement of problem The effect of different abutment materials on the misfit and stability of
the implant-abutment assembly under cyclic loading is unclear. Purpose The purpose of this …

Diamond-like carbon coatings are increasingly used as wear-protective coatings for dental
implants, artificial joints, etc. Despite their advantages, they may have several weak points …

In the oral cavity, abrasive wear is predictable at exposed tooth or restorative surfaces,
during mastication and tooth brushing. Also, wear can occur at contacting surfaces between …

The development of implant metal-free surfaces has gained attention since non-benefic
results have been reported related to the metallic ions released from metal implants to the …

The main aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of porosity, microstructure, and
chemical composition on the wear and compressive strength of dental glass-ionomer or …
