The molecular and cellular mechanisms responsible for the etiology and pathogenesis of
Alzheimer's disease (AD) have not been defined; however, inflammation within the brain is …

Background The classical approach to treatment of deep carious lesions approaching the
pulp mandates removing all infected and affected dentin. Several studies call this approach …

Osteointegration was defined as a “direct structural and functional connection between
ordered living bone and the surface of a load‐carrying implant.” (25) Although osteointegration …

The sensitivities of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Knoop hardness, water sorption,
and resin leaching were compared for their ability to distinguish differences between …

The objectives of this study were to determine the cytotoxic concentrations of 11 components
of resin composites on monolayers of cultured Balb/c 3T3 fibroblasts, to study the inhibitory …

The associations of inflammation/immune responses with clinical presentations of Alzheimer's
disease (AD) remain unclear. We hypothesized that TNF-α and elevated antibodies to …

Background: Destructive periodontal diseases have been associated with an increased risk
of atherosclerotic complications; however, the potential mechanisms are yet to be defined. …

First molars with full gold crown preparations and a shoulder geometry were idealized by an
axisymmetric model and analyzed by the photoelastic, as well as the finite element method. …

RESULTS Typical experimental results obtained on transverse sections of teeth are tabulated
in Table I. Three types of teeth are listed along with the type and position of the sections, …
