Optimization of 3D network topology for bioinspired design of stiff and lightweight bone-like structures
( Elsevier Ltd , 2021 , Article)A truly bioinspired approach to design optimization should follow the energetically favorable natural paradigm of ?minimum inventory with maximum diversity?. This study was inspired by constructive regression of trabecular ... -
Analytical model of I-bar clasps for removable partial dentures
( Elsevier Inc. , 2021 , Article)Objective: Clasps of removable partial dentures (RPDs) often suffer from fatigue stress that leads to plastic deformation, loss of retention, and RPD failure. Recently, computer-based technologies were proposed to optimize ... -
The role of cortical perforations in allogeneic block grafting for lateral augmentation in maxilla: A randomized clinical trial
( John Wiley and Sons Inc , 2021 , Article)Background: The need of decortication on the recipient site remains unclear for bone regeneration. To our knowledge, there are no human clinical trials that studied the influence of decortication on cancellous allogeneic ... -
The effect of nanocoatings of SiO2, TiO2, and ZrO2 on titanium-porcelain bonding
( Mosby Inc. , 2021 , Article)Statement of problem: Durable titanium-porcelain bonding is challenging because of the formation of a thick oxide layer on the surface during porcelain firing. Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate ... -
High toughness resorbable brushite-gypsum fiber-reinforced cements
( Elsevier Ltd , 2021 , Article)The ideal bone substitute material should be mechanically strong, biocompatible with a resorption rate matching the rate of new bone formation. Brushite (dicalcium phosphate dihydrate) cement is a promising bone substitute ... -
