Conventional bioactive ceramic implants possess high osteogenic ability but exhibit poor machinability and brittleness, which limit their wide applications. In this study, we report an elastomeric machinable nanoceramic-based hybrid membrane that is formed by nanohydroxyapatite-reinforced matrix (poly(dimethylsilicone)-bioactive glass-poly(caprolactone) (nHA-PBP)) using a modified sol-gel proce...

Objectives: Pulpotomy works to retain a healthy tooth in the mouth till exfoliation by protecting radicular pulp. The coronal pulp must be removed, and given medication, order maintain tooths health function. Subject Methods: children who took part this clinical investigation were chosen aged 4 8 years old, following approval from Ethical Committee obtaining signed informed consent their parent...

INTRODUCTION Periodontitis is a chronic infectious disease and is the major cause of tooth loss and other oral health issues around the world. Periodontal tissue regeneration has therefore always been the ultimate goal of dentists and researchers. Existing fabrication methods mainly focused on a top-down tissue engineering strategy in which several drawbacks remain, including low throughput and...

Nanofiber mats of polyether sulfone/nano hydroxyapatite (PES/nHA) were prepared by electrospinning technique. The fabricated composites were characterized using FTIR, XRD and SEM. The composite nanofiber mats were subjected to in vitro biological studies namely bioactivity, haemocompatibility and cytocompatibility. The XRD analysis showed an increase in the amorphous nature of the composite wit...
