The improved peri-implant bone response demonstrated when utilizing the platform-switching concept may result from the reduced levels of metal ions released from implant?abutment surfaces to the surrounding tissues. These corrosion products may play a ma...

Molecular surface gradients can constitute electric field landscapes and serve to control local cell adhesion and migration. Cellular responses to electric field landscapes may allow the discovery of routes to improve osseointegration of implants. Flat m...

The alterations of bone remodeling are typical of multiple myeloma (MM) patients where the uncoupled and unbalanced bone remodeling caused the onset of osteolytic lesions. Moreover, bone metastasis occurs in the majority of patients with breast and prost...

In medical implantology the human biosystem interacts with the artificial biomaterial. For permanent implants, e.g. titanium, it is of importance that cells immediately accept and occupy the material surface. To get deeper insights into molecular mechani...

Equine bone blocks have osteogenic effects promoting bone regeneration with biocompatibility and osteoconductivity capacity. Human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) can differentiate into osteoblasts enhancing biomineralization with such scaffolds. Melaton...
