Tantalum tubes are highly specialized components known for their exceptional corrosion resistance, high melting point, and biocompatibility. Made from tantalum, a rare and refractory metal, these tubes are widely used in industries that demand reliability under extreme conditions. In this article, we’ll explore the properties, applications, and benefits of tantalum tubes. Key Properties of ...
In the field of materials science, there are various fascinating areas that have captured the attention of researchers and innovators worldwide. This article aims to shed light on four such intriguing topics: Hydrophobic Polymers, Photochromic Materials, PVC Stabilizers, and Biocompatible Ceramics. By delving into the mysteries surrounding these subjects, we can gain a deeper understanding of ...
Titanium and its alloys have many advantages as surgical implant materials, such as low density, high strength, good toughness, good biocompatibility, non-toxicity, low elastic modulus, good corrosion resistance, and low X-ray absorption rate Etc., thus occupying an increasingly important position in medical metal materials. Titanium and its alloys can be used for the repair and replacement of ...
What happens when you bring 90+ expert dentistry and maxillofacial surgeon’s together in a room to unpack the burgeoning world of collagen membrane technology and digital dentistry? There are plenty of reasons to smile, that’s what. On Tuesday 7 August 2018, Australian regenerative medicine company Orthocell (ASX:OCC) sponsored and participated in an industry forum, Advances in ...
As an important branch of biomedical materials, bioceramics are mainly used to manufacture hard tissue repair devices and artificial organs in vivo, and generally have good biocompatibility. According to the chemical activity in the physiological environment, bioceramics can be divided into three types: Nearly inert bioceramics, only weak or no chemical reaction occurs when exposed to the ...

The use of lasers for periodontal treatment has become more complicated because the periodontium consists of both hard and soft tissues. Non-surgical Periodontal Therapy Dental plaque is known as the principal etiologic factor for the inflammatory periodontal disease; therefore, it is evident that treatment of the disease is dependent upon how much the plaque and its retentive factors are ...

The following case was performed at the Pacific Dental Convention’s Live Surgical Stage held March 8th, 2018 in Vancouver, BC. The patient is a healthy 58 year old male with no known allergies or medical contra-indications to dental treatment. Patient presented with a Class III malocclusion for which he received both orthodontic and oral surgery consultations; however, he was not ...
INTRODUCTION The goal of the implant surgeon is to place the implant in the ideal position, to support the prosthesis for the best long term prognosis, while managing important anatomical landmarks. With the aid of Cone Beam CT scans the implant surgeon is able to evaluate, in three dimension, the ridge, important anatomy, as well as pre-plan implant placement in the most ideal position. ...
Osteogenesis, or new bone formation, begins in the early stages of embryonic development and continues postnatally until skeletal maturity is reached in early adulthood. Osteogenesis reoccurs in the event of bone trauma, such as a fracture or surgically created defect. Bone mass can also increase in response to chronic weight bearing from daily use or decrease due to a lack of movement or applied ...

Digital dentistry refers to the use of dental technologies or devices that comprises digital or computer-controlled factors to raise out dental processes as an alternative than using mechanical or electrical tools. The use of digital dentistry can make carrying out dental methods more environmentally friendly than using mechanical tools, each for restorative as diagnostic purposes. 'Godfather' ...

Abstract Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is growing in popularity for orthopedic, spinal, and trauma applications but has potential significant limitations in use. PEEK is biocompatible, similar in elasticity to bone, and radiolucent, but is inert and therefore does not integrate well with bone. Current efforts are focusing on increasing the bioactivity of PEEK with surface modifications to improve ...
What is an artist doing working in a cutting-edge science lab? That’s a question I hear almost every time I explain my summer internship at EpiBone. Fortunately, I feel my whole life has been preparing me to answer it. I have always sat firmly at the intersection between art and science. My best subjects in school were the visual arts and the natural sciences, a seemingly unlikely pair. ...
An ideal bone grafting material should be compatible with physiological environment, provoke osseous tissue formation and adapt degradation behaviour to new bone tissue growth. Calcium phosphates, a main inorganic constituent of the human hard tissue, are by far the best substitute materials for bone reconstruction because of their excellent bioactivity, biocompatibility and osteoconductivity. In ...
Abstract Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is currently gaining popularity in orthopedic and spinal applications but has potential drawbacks in use. PEEK is biocompatible, similar in elasticity to bone, and radiolucent; however, it has been shown to be inert and does not integrate well with bone. Recent efforts have focused on increasing the bioactivity of PEEK by modifying the surface to improve the ...
The early fixation of pedicle screws is crucial for improving spinal stabilisation. Firm and immediate fixation between pedicle screws and bone prevents aseptic loosening and implant failure. Coating with hydroxyapatite is a possible method to improve the fixation of metallic implants in bone. In ...
Microporous surfaces of commercially available uncemented Tilastan® implants were coated with gentamicinpalmitate. The roughness of the titanium implant surfaces remained largely intact. During the first few days, the gentamicin release was comparable to the elution of this antibiotic from commercially available PMMA bone cements. Compared to PMMA cements, the implants coated with the ...
The structure of compact bone is heterogeneous and as such, is difficult to shape by cutting tools during clinical surgical practices. The structure of bone can have a devastating effect on the performance of the cutting tool unless it is coated with a thin solid film that is wear resistant. The paper investigates the use of diamond coated cutting tools to prepare bone for prosthetic implants and ...
