Clinical and radiographic peri-implant parameters were worse and levels of AGEs in PISF were increased in individuals with prediabetes and T2DM. AGEs may play an important role in peri-implant inflammation in prediabetes and T2DM.
Adjacent implants can remain esthetically and functionally stable in type 2 diabetic patients in a manner similar to healthy individuals provided glycemic levels are strictly controlled and maintained.
The objective was to formulate and analyze a dentin adhesive incorporated with graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticle and calcium phosphate (CaP) composite. Methods comprising of scanning electron microscopy (SEM)–energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDX), micro‐Raman spectroscopy, shear bond strength (SBS), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy were used to characterize nanoparticle composite, dentin bond toughness, degree of conversion (DC), and adhesive‐dentin interaction. Postsynthesis of GO nanoparticles, they were functionalized with CaP using standard process. The GO‐CaP composite was not added to experimental adhesive (negative control group, GO‐CaP‐0%), and added at 2.5 and 5 wt% to yield GO‐CaP‐2.5% and GO‐CaP 5% groups, respectively. Teeth were set to form bonded samples utilizing adhesives in three groups for SBS testing, with and without thermocycling. The homogenous diffusion of GO‐CaP composite was verified in the adhesive. Resin tags having standard penetrations were observed on SEM micrographs. The EDX analysis confirmed the occurrence of calcium, phosphorus, and carbon ions in the composite containing adhesives. The SBS test revealed highest mean values for GO‐CaP‐5% followed by GO‐CaP‐2.5%. The FTIR spectra verified the presence of apatite peaks and the micro‐Raman spectra showed characteristic D and G bands for GO nanoparticles. GO‐CaP composite in dentin adhesive may improve its bond strength. The addition of 5 wt% resulted in a bond strength that was superior to all other groups. GO‐CaP‐5% group demonstrated lower DC (to control), uniform distribution of GO and CaP composite within adhesive, appropriate dentin interaction, and resin tag formation.
Artificial teeth debonding from their denture bases is a common complication in dental practice. The current study evaluates different repairing techniques. Within the limitation of this study, the use of cyanoacrylate adhesive in combination with microwave polymerization is one of the best techniques of repairing denture teeth debonding.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
