Gingival crevicular fluid semaphorin 4D and peptidylarginine deiminase-2 levels in periodontal health and disease
(2019)
Background The aim of this study was to compare the levels of semaphorin 4D (SEMA4D), peptidylarginine deiminase 2 (PAD2) and matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in patients with periodontal ...
COMPARISON OF TWO MORPHOMETRIC LINEAR METHODS FOR ALVEOLAR BONE LOSS MEASUREMENT IN EXPERIMENTAL PERIODONTITIS
(2019)
Aim: The aim of this study was to compare direct (performed by a dental loop, periodontal probe and digital caliper over the alveolar bone) and indirect (performed by means of a special software program on digital photographs) ...
Histological evaluation of combined platelet-rich fibrin membrane and piezo-incision application in orthodontic tooth movement
(2019)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) membrane on tooth movement in comparison with shunt control and piezoelectric surgery. Sixteen White Vienna rabbits were included in the study ...
The influence of zirconia coping designs on maximum principal stress distribution in all-ceramic premolar crowns: A finite element analysis
(2019)
Purpose: To evaluate the effects of different coping designs on maximum principal stresses in the veneering material using a finite element analysis method. Methods: A maxillary first premolar tooth model was prepared. The ...

Objectives The aim of this retrospective study is to compare external apical root resorption (EARR) after labial and lingual fixed orthodontic treatment, as detected with panoramic radiographs. Materials and methods Sixty ...
Relationship between alveolar bone thickness, tooth root morphology, and sagittal skeletal pattern: A cone beam computed tomography study
(2019)
PurposeThe goal of this work was to examine the relationship between sagittal facial pattern and thickness of alveolar bone in conjunction with root morphology of teeth by using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).MethodsThe ...
The shear bond strength of repaired high-viscosity bulk-fill resin composites with different adhesive systems and resin composite types
(2019)
This study compared the effect of different adhesive systems and composite resins on the shear bond strength (SBS) of repaired high-viscosity bulk-fill composites(Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill) and investigated failure modes. ...
