Tissue engineering in vitro and in vivo involves the interaction of cells with a material surface.
The nature of the surface can directly influence cellular response, ultimately affecting the …

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a synthetic polymer derived from polyvinyl acetate through partial
or full hydroxylation. PVA is commonly used in medical devices due to its low protein …

The tremendous growth of social media and consumer-generated content on the Internet has
inspired the development of the so-called big data analytics to understand and solve real-…

The success of an implant is determined by its integration into the tissue surrounding the
biomaterial. Surface roughness and composition are considered to influence the properties of …

Titanium (Ti) osseointegration is critical for the success of dental and orthopedic implants.
Previous studies have shown that surface roughness at the micro- and submicro-scales …

Dental and orthopedic implants have been under continuous advancement to improve their
interactions with bone and ensure a successful outcome for patients. Surface characteristics …

Biomaterial surface properties including chemistry, topography, and wettability regulate cell
response. Previous studies have shown that increasing surface roughness of metallic …

In order to understand how biomaterials influence bone formation in vivo, it is necessary to
examine Cellular response to materials in the context of wound healing. Four interrelated …

OBJECTIVE: Surface roughness and surface free energy are two important factors that regulate
cell responses to biomaterials. Previous studies established that titanium (Ti) substrates …

Demineralized freeze‐dried bone allograft (DFDBA) has been used extensively in periodontal
therapy. The rationale for use of DFDBA includes the fact that proteins capable of inducing …
