Immediate non-submerged implants with laser-microtextured collar placed in the inter-radicular septum of mandibular molar extraction sockets associat…
2019
Background The aim of the present study was to radiographically evaluate the vertical socket walls changes, and the peri-implant marginal bone remodelling, and clinicallly the soft tissues conditions around the non-submerged single implants placed into the inter radicular septum of mandibular molar sockets, associated with a collagen membrane, after 3 years of loading. Material and Methods Thirty patients underwent to placement of a non-submerged implants with a laser-microtextured collar into the inter radicular septum of mandibular molar fresh extraction sockets. A collagen membrane and the mucoperiosteal flap were adapted around the neck of the implants, leaving the laser-microtextured c…
Endodontic management of three-rooted maxillary second premolar in a patient with bilateral occurrence of three roots in maxillary second premolars
2012
The possibility of bilateral maxillary second premolars having three separate roots is quite low; however, it must be taken into account in clinical and radiographic evaluations during endodontic treatment. A correct clinical and radiographic diagnosis based on knowledge of root canal anatomy and critical interpretation of radiographs is necessary for a safer and successful endodontic treatment of these teeth. Failure of root canal treatment can occur due to missed roots/canals and often diagnosed when patient experiences continuous post-operative pain and discomfort. This case report describes the root canal treatment of a three-rooted maxillary second premolar in a patient with bilateral …
Maxillary first molar with three mesiobuccal canals confirmed with spiral computer tomography
2012
Anatomic variations in root canal morphology have become easier to detect with the rapid advancements in clinical and diagnostic aids. Also an increased awareness of unusual anatomic morphology and a better understanding of the root canal system guides the clinician in diagnosis and treatment of such variations in order to achieve a successful endodontic outcome. Mesiobuccal root of first maxillary molar teeth have been considered to be one of the most complex and challenging root canal systems. This case report presents a successful management of a third canal in the mesiobuccal root of permanent maxillary first molar using dental operating microscope along with a modified access preparati…
Factores de riesgo asociados a la aparición de nuevas lesiones de caries en primeros molares permanentes
2018
Objetivo: Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo longitudinal el cual fue aprobado por el Comité de Ética de la Universidad de Valencia. El objetivo principal fue determinar los factores asociados a la aparición de nuevas lesiones de caries en el primer molar permanente (PMP) en niños de 12 años pertenecientes al Departamento 9 de Salud del Hospital General de Valencia (al que corresponden los Centros de Salud (CS) de Alacuás, Xirivella y Paiporta) seguidos, desde antes de la erupción del PMP y a lo largo de un periodo de 5 y 7 años, a través de la evaluación de su historia clínica. Material y métodos: se listaron en 2015 los niños nacidos en 2005 en los 3 municipios. De este modo se obtuvo un…
Cell adhesion on UV-crosslinked polyurethane gels with adjustable mechanical strength and thermoresponsiveness
2021
Temperature-responsive polyurethane (PU) hydrogels represent a versatile material platform for modern tissue engineering and biomedical applications. However, besides intrinsic advantages such as high mechanical strength and a hydrolysable backbone composition, plain PU materials are generally lacking bio-adhesive properties. To overcome this shortcoming, the authors focus on the synthesis of thermoresponsive PU hydrogels with variable mechanical and cell adhesive properties obtained from linear precursor PUs based on poly(ethylene glycol)s (pEG) with different molar masses, isophorone diisocyanate, and a dimerizable dimethylmaleimide (DMMI)-diol. The cloud point temperatures of the dilute,…
Synthesis and characterization of well-defined poly(tert-butyl acrylate) star polymers
2009
Abstract Star polymers with different numbers and lengths of poly(tert-butyl acrylate) (PTBA) arms were obtained via atom transfer radical polymerization. Aliphatic alcohols with different number of hydroxyl groups varying from 3 to 6 and calix[4]arenes based on pyrogallol with 12 and 16 phenol groups were transformed to bromoester derivatives to prepare multifunctional ATRP initiators used as the cores of the stars. The star polymers were characterized by GPC with refractive index, multiangle laser light scattering and viscosimetric detectors. The molar masses of the stars reached 70,000 g/mol and the molar mass dispersities did not exceed 1.2. To elucidate the compact structure of the sta…
Resorcinarene-based ATRP initiators for star polymers
2004
Two novel multifunctional initiators for atom transfer radical polymeriza- tion (ATRP) were synthesized by derivatization of tetraethylresorcinarene. The deri- vatization induced a change in the conformation of the resorcinarene ring, which was confirmed by NMR spectroscopy. The initiators were used in ATRP of tert-butyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate, producing star polymers with controlled molar masses and low polydispersities. Instead of the expected star polymers with eight arms, polymers with four arms were obtained. Conformational studies on the initiators by rotating- frame nuclear Overhauser and exchange spectroscopy NMR and molecular modeling suggested that of eight initiator fun…
Thermodynamic properties of some N-alkyl-N-methylpiperidinium chlorides and N-alkylpiperidine hydrochlorides in water
1993
Densities and heat capacities at 25[degrees]C were measured for N-octyl-, N-decyl- and N-dodecyl-N-methylpiperidinium chlorides and for N-octyl- and N-dodecylpiperidine hydrochlorides in water as functions of concentration. Enthalpies of dilution at 25[degrees]C and osmotic coefficients at 37[degrees]C of the N-methyl-N-alkylpiperidinium chlorides were also measured as functions of concentration. The partial molar volumes, heat capacities, relative enthalpies, nonideal Gibbs energies and entropies at 25[degrees]C were derived as functions of the surfactant concentration. By increasing the alkyl chain length of the surfactant, both the apparent molar volume vs. concentration curves are shift…
Fractionated precipitation of acid macropolyanions by dialysis, a simple method for the estimation of DNA in complex biological samples.
1976
Abstract After efficient extraction by para-aminosalicylate, (hopping, grinding and eventual sonication, the macropolyanions are transformed into their cetyltrimethylammonium salts. These have differing solubilities, strongly depending on ionic strength. The cationic detergent-macropolyanionic salts are solubilized by high salt concentration. Salt is then dialysed out, rendering the polyanions highly insoluble in a sequential fashion. The insolubilized components are determined quantitatively by monitoring turbidity, which in case of DNA is strictly proportionate to its concentration. This relation is not affected by other components. This makes DNA determination possible even in crude aque…
Copolymers sensitive to temperature and pH in water and in water+oil mixtures: A DSC, ITC and volumetric study
2011
Block copolymer micelles are receiving an increasing interest because of the variety of structures and the possibilities to tune them by changing external and internal parameters achieving the desired properties for a specific purpose. We have investigated the acid/base behavior, self-assembling and solubilization ability towards polar oils of star-like copolymers named Tetronics. They are composed of branched four-arms each one consisting of two blocks made of EO and PO units linked to the diethylenediamine group, which confers pH response ability. The copolymers T1107 and T90R4 were studied with a sequential and reverse architecture. The thermodynamics of the acid/base equilibrium was stu…
