Open DOI
Comparative analysis of tissue specific efficacy of xenogeneic collagen membranes in a guided bone regeneration model
Naturally derived collagen membranes are widely applied in guided bone regeneration (GBR), whereas the implications of different tissue sources remain poorly understood. This study compared bovine pericardium (BP), bovine dermis (BD) and...

Open DOI
Measurement of polymerization shrinkage in dental composite resins using a multicolor confocal displacement laser
This study aimed to clarify polymerization shrinkage behavior of composite resins (CRs), widely used in clinical dentistry. Shrinkage of 18 CRs (6 paste, 5 flowable, 7 bulk) was measured using a multicolor confocal displacement laser wit...

Open DOI
Influence of magnesium oxide nanoparticles on in vitro mechanical and antibacterial performance of self-curing dental polymethyl-methacrylate
Self-curing polymethyl methacrylate is widely used for provisional restorations, retainers and denture repairs, but its lack of antibacterial activity favors bacterial colonization. Magnesium oxide nanoparticles exhibit broad antibacteri...

Open DOI
The effects of desensitizing agents on dentin permeability using a hydraulic conductance device
This in vitro study evaluated the effects of a sodium-fluoride varnish, two surface pre-reacted glass-ionomer (S-PRG)-containing agents, and an experimental glycerol-stabilized calcium phosphate cluster (GCPC) gel on dentin permeability ...

DOI 10.4012/dmj.2026-055
Open DOI
Effect of 8-methacryloxyoctyl trimethoxy silane concentration on the bonding performance and durability to zirconia
This study evaluated the bonding performance and durability of a novel long-chain silane, 8-methacryloxyoctyl trimethoxysilane (8-MOTS), on zirconia surfaces. Specimens were treated with varying concentrations of 8-MOTS (0.1–4.0%) and co...
