Evaluation of Interactions of Surface Fluorides on Nickel-chromium and Casted Titanium Alloys: An In Vitro Study.

Aim: The present study was conducted to assess the effects of topical fluoride on casted Titanium and nickel chromium using Scanning Electron Microscope.

Materials And Methods: This in vitro study comprised of 45 specimens of Titanium and 45 specimens of nickel-chromium of same dimensions. They were divided into three groups of 15 each.

Evaluation of Surface Roughness of Different Direct Resin-based Composites.

Aims And Objective: To evaluate surface roughness of different resin-based composites.

Materials And Methods: Three resin composites, one nanohybrid, one nanoceramic, and one bulk-fill resin-based composite, were used in this study. Cylindrical Teflon mold and 8 mm in diameter and 2 mm in thickness disc specimens were prepared.

In vitro Assessment of Clasps of Cobalt-Chromium and Nickel-titanium Alloys in Removable Prosthesis.

Background: It has been since a long time that the use of base-metal alloys has significantly increased in the area of prosthetic science. One of the factors contributing for the increasing use of base-metal alloys is the increasing and high cost factor of noble metals. Although numerous materials have been tried since the recent past, Cobalt-Chromium (CoCr) alloys still form the most commonly used ones because of the numerous advantages they offer.

Dental management of a patient fitted with subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator device and concomitant warfarin treatment.

Automated Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators (AICD), simply known as an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD), has been used in patients for more than 30 years. An Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) is a small battery-powered electrical impulse generator that is implanted in patients who are at a risk of sudden cardiac death due to ventricular fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia or any such related event. Typically, patients with these types of occurrences are on anticoagulant therapy.

Surgical templates for dental implant positioning; current knowledge and clinical perspectives.

Dental implants have been used in a variety of different forms for many years. Since the mid-20(th) century, there has been an increase in interest in the implant process for the replacement of missing teeth. Branemark was one of the initial pioneers who applied scientifically based research techniques to develop an endosseous implant that forms an immobile connection with bone.

Imperative role of dental pulp stem cells in regenerative therapies: a systematic review.

Stem cells are primitive cells that can differentiate and regenerate organs in different parts of the body such as heart, bones, muscles and nervous system. This has been a field of great clinical interest with immense possibilities of using the stem cells in regeneration of human organ those are damaged due to disease, developmental defects and accident. The knowledge of stem cell technology is increasing quickly in all medical specialties and in dental field too.
