    Novel smart dental composite with rechargeable antimicrobial capability

    Statement of Purpose: The most common cause of failure for dental restorations is secondary caries [1]. It results from bacterial colonization (e.g. Streptococcus mutans) at the interface between the implanted biomaterial and hard tissue. The bonding strength is degraded by bacterial acid production and cyclic stresses from mastication. Resin composites are currently the most widely used material for restorations due to their great aesthetics, strength, and ease of processing. However, resins present the highest failure rate [2] due to the increased accumulation of biofilms (increased acid production) compared to other restorative materials [3]. Recent studies have developed resin composites with antibacterial properties to mitigate acid production. However, the antimicrobial effects are vanished over time since the antibiofilm agents leach-out and no longer are capable to repel bacteria. In this work, we present a novel smart biomaterial with long-lasting antibiofilm capabilities with a single filler. The novel resin filler produces electrical charges that disrupt oral bacteria, (antimicrobial effect) and are activated by mastication. © 2019 Omnipress - All rights reserved.

    Study of the suitability of a commercial hydroxyapatite powder to obtain sintered compacts for medical applications
    (IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2017-06-13) Palacio C.; Jaramillo D.; Correa S.; Arroyave M.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ingeniería Mecánica; Bioingeniería GIB (CES – EAFIT)
    Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a material widely used by the medical community due to its Ca/P ratio is comparable to the Ca/P ratio of bones and teeth, which promotes osteoinduction and osteoconduction processes when in contact with bone tissue, either as volume piece or coating. This work focuses on studying the quality of the commercial HA powder MKnano-#MKN-HXAP-S12 µm, after processing, to obtain sintered compact discs with suitable physical and chemical characteristics for implants applications. The HA powder was processed through calcination, grinding, pressing and sintering to evaluate the effect of such as procedures in the compacts dics quality. The raw powder was characterized by laser diffraction, SEM, XRF, XRD, TGA and DSC while the characteristics of the obtained compact discs were determined by dilatometry and XRD to identify the sintering temperature range, constituent phases, the amorphous content and the crystallinity degree, parameters that allow determining their suitability for implants applications. Although, it was not possible to obtain sintered compacts with the suitable chemical composition and without fractures, this work allowed to identify the parameters that determine the suitability of a HA powder to obtain sintered compacts for medical applications, as well as the characterization protocol that allows the evaluation of such parameters. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.

    Diseño y manufactura de un implante personalizado de cráneo
    (SPRINGER, 2013-01-01) Isaza, J.F.; Correa, S.; Franco, J.M.; Torres, C.; Bedoya, B.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ingeniería Mecánica; Bioingeniería GIB (CES – EAFIT)
    This paper describes the methodology used to design a custom-made cranial implant for a 26 year-old patient, who suffered a lesion in the left frontoparietal region of the skull caused by a fibrous dysplasia. The design of the implant was carried out from the 3D reconstruction of the skull of the patient, obtained by a CT- Scan, using Rapid Form 2006. Once the preliminary design was obtained, 3D models of the injured region of the skull and implant were fabricated in a Rapid Prototyping (RP) machine using the Fused Deposition Modeling Technology (FDM) with the purpose of making a functional and dimensional validation of the implant. Subsequently, the implant was fabricated in titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V). With the methodology, the prosthesis was successfully implanted. The surgical time decreased by 50%, compared with the same type of surgery in which standard commercial implants and titanium meshes are used; due, principally, to the need of implementing trial and error procedures, which intend to achieve a good fit of the implant increasing the risk of the patient. Finally, the aesthetic appearance of the patient was recovered, allowing the patient to safely perform daily activities. © 2013 Springer.
