Titanium mesh cranioplasty is often performed after decompressive craniectomy. Spontaneous fracture of the titanium prosthesis is an extremely rare postoperative complication. Here, we report a 10-year-old boy who presented with a spontaneous fracture of titanium mesh without antecedent head trauma. A 10-year-old boy presented with a 1-wk history o...
Isotopic labelling was used to track the diffusion of nitrogen during the oxidation of Titanium in air at 700°C. Alternate exposure in 15 N2-labelled air and regular air was used. The nitrogen is mainly located at the oxide/metal interface and forms essentially a nitride phase close to Ti2N. Each nitrogen isotope was quantified by Nuclear Reaction ...

In order to investigate the esthetic outcomes via color differences of various lithium disilicate ceramic thicknesses on various voltages of anodized titanium. 28 lithium disilicate ceramic specimens (medium translucency) were arranged into four groups based on the thickness of the ceramic: 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 mm (n=7). Each group was tested wit...

This study evaluated surface characteristics and biocompatibility of surface-modified thin titanium (Ti) foils as a regenerative barrier membrane for future application in guided bone regeneration (GBR) surgery to augment atrophic alveolar bone. Anodic oxidation and post-heat treatment were performed to prepare various Ti foil samples. Then, the in...
With the advent of biodegradable osteosynthesis material, titanium osteosynthesis for ORIF in pediatric maxillofacial trauma is not as indisputable as before. The aim of this study was to conduct a scoping review to assess the indications, complications of ORIF with titanium osteosynthesis material in pediatric maxillofacial trauma. A systematic se...

The purpose of this systematic review is to determine if the zirconia implants present better clinical results when compared to titanium implants. Searches were conducted in 5 databases including, until March 2022, by 2 independent reviewers, according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria established in the study and according whit this question...

The aim of this study is to examine the stresses that will occur under occlusal forces on the cortical bone, spongious bone and the subperiosteal implant systems made of Titanium and%60 Carbon fiber reinforced Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) material. Two different models of subperiosteal implant systems on maxilla made of Titanium and %60 Carbon fib...

Development of multifunctional advanced stent implants (metal/polymer composite)-drug-eluting stents with superior material and optical properties is still a challenge. In this research work, multifunctional metal-polymer composite drug-eluting substrates (DES) for stent application were developed by using commercially pure titanium (cpTi) and poly...

Our aim was to report the long-term outcomes of mandibular reconstruction using CAD-CAM-designed 3D-printed porous titanium implants in patients not amenable to a free vascularized fibula flap reconstruction. The implants were designed with ProPlan CMF® 2.2 software and manufactured with a Selective Laser Melting (SLM) "layer-by-layer" 3D-printing ...
