Effect of TiO2 and CaO addition on the crystallisation and flexural strength of novel Leucite glass-ceramics.
(11-07-2024)The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of TiO2/CaO addition on the crystallization and flexural strength of leucite glass-ceramics (GC). Synthesis of translucent and high strength GCs is important for the ... -
Clinical trial designs for testing of products for dentine hypersensitivity--a review.
(1997)Dentine hypersensitivity (DH) is a perplexing clinical entity. There is no doubt that patients self-report discomfort arising from various stimuli, but the highly subjective nature of the condition makes it extremely ... -
Effect of estrogen suppression on the mineralization density of iliac crest biopsies in young women as assessed by backscattered electron imaging.
(1998-03)The effects of estrogen suppression on bone mineralization in young women were studied by quantitative backscattered electron (BSE) imaging of transiliac biopsies taken before and after treatment for endometriosis. Treatment ... -
Osteoconduction in large macroporous hydroxyapatite ceramic implants: evidence for a complementary integration and disintegration mechanism.
(1999-06)Large, cylindrical implants of a porous calcium phosphate ceramic ("hydroxyapatite" starting material, HAC) were used to replace far greater than critical-sized sections of the midshaft of sheep tibiae and retrieved at 2 ... -
The real response of bone to exercise

Effect of sterilization by gamma radiation on nano-mechanical properties of teeth
(2008)Objectives: Extracted teeth used in dental research need to be considered infective and hence be sterilized without the materials' properties being altered. This study examined the effect of gamma radiation on the ... -
Dental Age Revisited
(Cambridge University Press, 2008-02-07)Tooth formation spans childhood, with hard tissue formation beginning during the first trimester in utero, continuing during infancy up to adulthood, and ends with maturation of the root apices of the third permanent molars. ... -
Tissue-specific calibration of extracellular matrix material properties by transforming growth factor-beta and Runx2 in bone is required for hearing
(2010-09-17)Physical cues, such as extracellular matrix stiffness, direct cell differentiation and support tissue-specific function. Perturbation of these cues underlies diverse pathologies, including osteoarthritis, cardiovascular ...
