Abstract The search for high-efficiency antimicrobial nanomaterials has intensified due to the escalating threat of antibiotic resistance. In this study, titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) were synthesized using a...

Abstract Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the color matching and metameric behavior of two different composite resins applied to titanium surfaces anodized to yellow and pink colors. The study aimed to de...

Abstract Backgrounds Nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary instruments are widely used in endodontics because of their flexibility and superelasticity. However, the cyclic fatigue resistance of ORODEKA and M3-L systems in curved...

To meet the requirements of precision and high-performance diffusion bonding for titanium alloy structures, pure graphite was used as the position limitation block. Diffusion bonding tests of TA15 titanium alloy samples ...

In narrow-gap laser–arc hybrid welding, the droplet transfer behavior indirectly affects the formation of porosity defects by influencing the molten pool disturbance and keyhole stability. To reveal the correspondence ...

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the mechanical performance of CF/PEEK composite plates for external fixation through finite element analysis (FEA), and to explore the impact of different screw placement patterns on...

Abstract Background Various designs of dental implants made of zirconium dioxide (zirconia) as an alternative to titanium implants are available as one-piece implant (OPI) or as bone-level or tissue-level two-piece impla...

Electric Discharge Machining (EDM) is a non-traditional machining process that utilizes electric sparks between an electrode and a workpiece submerged in a dielectric fluid to ablate a material. It is commonly used in di...

This paper examines the influence of controlled heat treatments on the mechanical behaviour of Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5 Titanium alloy) to improve its performance in structural and high performance applications. Ti-6Al-4V is w...

Co-doped titanium dioxide materials were successfully synthesized by the sol–gel method. Molybdenum was incorporated into all materials at 0.5 wt %, while the co-dopants, copper and cobalt, were added at 0.2–0.5 wt %...

Abstract Using the electrodeposition technique, nanocomposite thin films of ITO/TiO₂, ITO/TiO₂/CdS, and ITO/TiO₂/Gd₂O₃ were successfully fabricated on ITO glass substrates. The structural, morphological, and op...

Throughout history there have been attempts to alleviate joint pain by various means. With Industrial Revolution and the development of modern medicine, surgery was seen as a means to relieve joint pain. The first endopr...

IntroductionOrthopedic implant-associated infections, predominantly caused by S. aureus, pose significant challenges due to biofilm formation and antibiotic resistance. Bioactive Glass (BAG) S53P4 is a unique material wi...

The inadequate corrosion resistance and conductivity of metal bipolar plates are major obstacles to the commercialization of proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE). In this work, Nb/NbN/Mo-containing NbN mul...

Abstract Accurate specimen preparation is essential for biomechanical push-out testing of bone–implant interfaces. A common source of error arises when implants such as pins or screws are not cut exactly perpendicular ...

Abstract The photocatalytic efficiency of pristine titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) remains suboptimal due to its poor visible light absorption and rapid charge carrier recombination, necessitating fine structu...

Abstract Objective To evaluate the effect of gradually increasing orthodontic force magnitude compared with a constant force magnitude on the rate of tooth movement during maxillary canine retraction. Methods This split-...

Abstract Purpose In dentistry, digital technologies have become firmly established in the field of oral implantology. The trueness of impressions taken using intraoral scanners as part of the digital workflow has a direc...
