Nassar HI, Fateen A. Accuracy of fit for cobaltchromium bar over two implants fabricated with different manufacturing techniques: an in-vitro study. BMC Oral Health 2023; 23:946. [PMID: 38031111 PMCID: PMC10688085 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-03700-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2023] [Accepted: 11/22/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of the invitro research was to compare the fit of Cobalt Chromium customized bar fabricated with different manufacturing processes cast metal bar, milled bar and 3D printed bar using scanning electron microscope. MATERIALS AND METHODS Clear epoxy resin molds were prepared. In each mold two parallel implants with a 14 mm distance from each other were embedded. Thirty Co-Cr custom bars were constructed and were divided equally into three groups: Group (I) (Co-Cr conv), group (II) milled bar (Co-Cr milled), and group (III) printed bar (Co-Cr print). The marginal fit at implant-abutment interface was scanned using scanning electron microscope (SEM). RESULTS There was a significant difference between the three studied groups regarding marginal misfit the between implant and fabricated bars with p-value < 0.001. The highest value of micro-gap distance was found in Co-Cr conventional group (7.95 ± 2.21 μm) followed by Co-Cr 3D printed group (4.98 ± 1.73) and the lower value were found in Co-Cr milled (3.22 ± 0.75). CONCLUSION The marginal fit of milled, 3D printed and conventional cast for Co-Cr alloy were within the clinically acceptable range of misfit. CAD/CAM milled Co-Cr bar revealed a superior internal fit at the implant-abutment interface. This was followed by selective laser melting (SLM) 3D printed bar and the least fit was shown for customized bar with the conventional lost wax technique.

Abstract
Objective: Loosening of dental implants due to resorption of the surrounding bone is one of the challenging clinical complications in prosthetic dentistry. Generally, stiffness mismatch between an implant and its surrounding bone is one of the major factors. In order to prevent such clinical consequences, it is essential to develop implants with customized stiffness. The present study investigates the computational and experimental biomechanical responses together with cytocompatibility studies of three-dimensional (3D)-printed Ti-6Al-4V-based porous dental implants with varied stiffness properties. Methods: Additive manufacturing (direct metal laser sintering, DMLS) was utilized to create Ti-6Al-4V implants having distinct porosities and pore sizes (650 and 1000 μm), along with a nonporous (solid) implant. To validate the compression testing of the constructed implants and to probe their biomechanical response, finite element models were employed. The cytocompatibility of the implants was assessed using MG-63 cells, in vitro. Results: Both X-ray microcomputed tomography (μ-CT) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies illustrated the ability of DMLS to produce implants with the designed porosities. Biomechanical analysis results revealed that the porous implants had less stiffness and were suitable for providing the appropriate peri-implant bone strain. Although all of the manufactured implants demonstrated cell adhesion and proliferation, the porous implants in particular supported better bone cell growth and extracellular matrix deposition. Conclusions: 3D-printed porous implants showed tunable stiffness properties with clinical translational potential.

Acta Biomater 2023; 170:185-201. [PMID: 37634835 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.08.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023]
Abstract
The incidence of screw loosening, migration, and pullout caused by the insufficient screw-bone fixation stability is relatively high in clinical practice. To solve this issue, the auxetic unit-based porous bone screw (AS) has been put forward in our previous work. Its favorable auxetic effect can improve the primary screw-bone fixation stability after implantation. However, porous structure affected the fatigue behavior and in vivo longevity of bone screw. In this study, in vitro fatigue behaviors and in vivo osseointegration performance of the re-entrant unit-based titanium auxetic bone screw were studied. The tensile-tensile fatigue behaviors of AS and nonauxetic bone screw (NS) with the same porosity (51%) were compared via fatigue experiments, fracture analysis, and numerical simulation. The in vivo osseointegration of AS and NS were compared via animal experiment and biomechanical analysis. Additionally, the effects of in vivo dynamic tensile loading on the osseointegration of AS and NS were investigated and analyzed. The fatigue strength of AS was approximately 43% lower while its osseointegration performance was better than NS. Under in vivo dynamic tensile loading, the osseointegration of AS and NS both improved significantly, with the maximum increase of approximately 15%. Preferrable osseointegration of AS might compensate for the shortage of fatigue resistance, ensuring its long-term stability in vivo. Adequate auxetic effect and long-term stability of the AS was supposed to provide enough screw-bone fixation stability to overcome the shortages of the solid bone screw, developing the success of surgery and showing significant clinical application prospects in orthopedic surgery. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This research investigated the high-cycle fatigue behavior of re-entrant unit-based auxetic bone screw under tensile-tensile cyclic loading and its osseointegration performance, which has not been focused on in existing studies. The fatigue strength of auxetic bone screw was lower while the osseointegration was better than non-auxetic bone screw, especially under in vivo tensile loading. Favorable osseointegration of auxetic bone screw might compensate for the shortage of fatigue resistance, ensuring its long-term stability and longevity in vivo. This suggested that with adequate auxetic effect and long-term stability, the auxetic bone screw had significant application prospects in orthopedic surgery. Findings of this study will provide a theoretical guidance for design optimization and clinical application of the auxetic bone screw.

Abstract
Introduction: Porous dental implants represent a promising strategy to reduce failure rate by favoring osseointegration or delivering drugs locally. Incorporating porous features weakens the mechanical capacity of an implant, but sufficient fatigue strength must be ensured as regulated in the ISO 14801 standard. Experimental fatigue testing is a costly and time-intensive part of the implant development process that could be accelerated with validated computer simulations. This study aimed at developing, calibrating, and validating a numerical workflow to predict fatigue strength on six porous configurations of a simplified implant geometry. Methods: Mechanical testing was performed on 3D-printed titanium samples to establish a direct link between endurance limit (i.e., infinite fatigue life) and monotonic load to failure, and a finite element model was developed and calibrated to predict the latter. The tool was then validated by predicting the fatigue life of a given porous configuration. Results: The normalized endurance limit (10% of the ultimate load) was the same for all six porous designs, indicating that monotonic testing was a good surrogate for endurance limit. The geometry input of the simulations influenced greatly their accuracy. Utilizing the as-designed model resulted in the highest prediction error (23%) and low correlation between the estimated and experimental loads to failure (R2 = 0.65). The prediction error was smaller when utilizing specimen geometry based on micro computed tomography scans (14%) or design models adjusted to match the printed porosity (8%). Discussion: The validated numerical workflow presented in this study could therefore be used to quantitatively predict the fatigue life of a porous implant, provided that the effect of manufacturing on implant geometry is accounted for.

Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:bioengineering10030379.

Abstract
Over the past couple of decades, additive manufacturing and the use of root-analogue-printed titanium dental implants have been developed. Not all powder particles are sintered into the final product during the additive manufacturing process. Reuse of the remaining powder could reduce the overall implant manufacturing cost. However, Ti-6Al-4V powder particles are affected by heat, mechanical factors, and oxidization during the powder bed fusion manufacturing process. Degradation of the powder may harm the final surface composition and decrease the biocompatibility and survival of the implant. The uncertainty of the recycled powder properties prevents implant fabrication facilities from reusing the powder. This study investigates the chemical composition of controlled, clean, and recycled titanium alloy powder and root-analogue implants (RAI) manufactured from these powders at three different depths. The change in titanium's quantity, oxidization state, and chemical composition in powder and RAI implants have been demonstrated and analyzed. While not identical, the surface chemical composition of the recycled powder implant and the implant manufactured from unused powder are similar. The results also indicate the presence of TiO2 on all surfaces. Many studies confirmed that titanium dioxide on the implant's surface correlates with better osteointegration, reduced bacterial infection, and increased corrosion resistance. Considering economic and environmental aspects, surface chemical composition comparison of clean and reused powder is crucial for the future manufacturing of cost-effective and biocompatible implants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Dental implants are designed to replace a missing tooth. Implant stability is vital to achieving osseointegration and successful implantation. Although there are many implants available on the market, there is room for improvement. PURPOSE We describe a new dental implant with improved primary stability features. STUDY DESIGN Lab bench test studies. METHODS We evaluated the new implant using static and flexion-compression fatigue tests with compression loads, 35 Ncm tightening torque, displacement control, 0.01 mm/s actuator movement speed, and 9-10 Hz load application frequency, obtaining a cyclic load diagram. We applied variable cyclic loadings of predetermined amplitude and recorded the number of cycles until failure. The test ended with implant failure (breakage or permanent deformation) or reaching five million cycles for each load. RESULTS Mean stiffness was 1151.13 ± 133.62 SD N/mm, mean elastic limit force 463.94 ± 75.03 SD N, and displacement 0.52 ± 0.04 SD mm, at failure force 663.21 ± 54.23 SD N and displacement 1.56 ± 0.18 SD mm, fatigue load limit 132.6 ± 10.4 N, and maximum bending moment 729.3 ± 69.43 mm/N. CONCLUSIONS The implant fatigue limit is satisfactory for incisor and canine teeth and between the values for premolars and molars for healthy patients. The system exceeds five million cycles when subjected to a 132.60 N load, ensuring long-lasting life against loads below the fatigue limit.

Abstract
The long-term success of a dental implant is related to the material and design of the implant, and bone density. Conventional implants cause stress-shielding due to a mismatch between the implant and bone stiffness. Functionally graded porous materials and designs are a great choice for the design of implants to control the local stiffness at a certain location to meet the biomechanical requirements. The purpose of this study is to analyze five designs of axial and radial functionally graded materials (FGM) implants besides the conventional implant and conical and cylindrical shapes that were simulated with five different bone densities. The results showed that strain in bone increased with a decrease in cancellous bone density. The shape of the implant did not play an important role in strain/stress distribution. Conventional implants showed optimal strain (1000-2240 με) in low-density (0.7-0.8 g/cm3) bone, however, FGM implants produced optimal strain (990-1280 με) in the high-density bone (0.9-1 g/cm3) as compared to conventional implants. The proposed designs of FGM implants have the potential to address the complications of conventional implants in high-density bone.

Abstract
In the last years, additive manufacturing technologies have been developed, especially direct metal laser sintering, and used in the dental and medical implant domains. Cardiovascular stents have evolved from bioinert, bare metal cages to biomimetic devices that promote tissue regeneration or healing. In this paper, comparisons concerning mechanical properties between Co-Cr alloy and cast 304L stainless steel were realized using FEM analysis, necessary for manufacturing cardiovascular stents by DMLS technology using Co-Cr alloy. The purpose of this paper consists of the evaluation of the contact angle at the interface of the Co-Cr alloy manufactured by DMLS, respectively, cast stainless steel 304L, and thin film deposition realized by the e-gun method (Ta2O5 and ZnO). Scanning electronic microscopy SEM and EDX techniques were employed for morphological investigation of the sintered samples manufactured by the DMLS process. They were also used for semi-quantitative and qualitative chemical and metallographic analyses. The e-gun coating was used to obtain thin films with the nanometer order of Ta2O5 and ZnO with a protective role to improve the corrosion resistance, roughness, and antiseptic role.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study is to summarize various biomechanical aspects in evaluating the long-term stability of dental implants based on finite element method (FEM). MATERIALS AND METHODS A comprehensive search was performed among published studies over the last 20 years in three databases; PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. The studies are arranged in a comparative table based on their publication date. Also, the variety of modeling is shown in the form of graphs and tables. Various aspects of the studies conducted were discussed here. RESULTS By reviewing the titles and abstracts, 9 main categories were extracted and discussed as follows: implant materials, the focus of the study on bone or implant as well as the interface area, type of loading, element shape, parts of the model, boundary conditions, failure criteria, statistical analysis, and experimental tests performed to validate the results. It was found that most of the studied articles contain a model of the jaw bone (cortical and cancellous bone). The material properties were generally derived from the literature. Approximately 43% of the studies attempted to examine the implant and surrounding bone simultaneously. Almost 42% of the studies performed experimental tests to validate the modeling. CONCLUSION Based on the results of the studies reviewed, there is no "optimal" design guideline, but more reliable design of implant is possible. This review study can be a starting point for more detailed investigations of dental implant longevity.

Abstract
Cobalt–chromium (Co-Cr) alloys have been widely used as dental-restoration materials for many years. This study sought to investigate whether selective laser melting (SLM) is a more appropriate process than traditional casting (CAST) for fabricating dental Co-Cr alloys. Metallurgical microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Vickers hardness and nanoindentation tests, and friction and wear tests were used to evaluate the microstructure, surface compositions, mechanical properties, and wear resistance, respectively. Additionally, the biocompatibilities and cell adhesion of the alloys were evaluated with L-929 fibroblasts via CCK-8 assay, Live/Dead staining, flow cytometric analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation and real-time PCR (RT-PCR) assay. The XPS results showed that the two alloys were all mainly comprised of Co, Cr, and O. The hardness in the CAST group equaled 7.15 ± 0.48 GPa, while in the SLM group, it equaled 9.06 ± 0.49 GPa. The friction coefficient of SLM alloys remained at approximately 0.46, but the CAST specimens fluctuated significantly. SLM alloys exhibited shallower wear scars and less wear debris compared with CAST alloys, simultaneously. Additionally, there were higher survival and expression of cell-adhesion-related genes on SLM alloys of L-929 cells, which meant that the deleterious effect on L-929 cells was significantly reduced compared with that for the CAST alloys. Overall, the wear resistances and biocompatibilities of the Co-Cr dental alloys were dramatically affected by the fabrication technique. The SLM technique is advantageous over the CAST technique for fabricating Co-Cr dental alloys.

J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2020; 78:1965.e1-1965.e9. [PMID: 32628934 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2020.06.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2020] [Revised: 05/23/2020] [Accepted: 06/05/2020] [Indexed: 10/24/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of porous layer thickness in a 3-dimensionally printed 1-piece molar porous root-analogue implant (RAI) on the biomechanical properties of the peri-implant bone and the clinical efficacy of one such implant in a patient. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three RAIs with different superficial porous layer thicknesses (0.5 mm, 1 mm, and fully porous) were designed and assembled using a mandible model and then solidified to obtain 3 finite elements models, denoted A, B, and C. Finite element analysis was performed to analyze the stress on the solid and porous structures of the RAIs and the stress and strain experienced by the bone surrounding the implant. RAIs were fabricated by selective laser melting. An unrepairable molar in a single patient was selected for replacement. An RAI was designed and prepared and then implanted into the alveolar bone immediately after minimally invasive extraction of the damaged tooth. Definitive restorations were placed after a 3-month period of uninterrupted healing. RESULTS The stress concentration observed in the 3 types of RAI was principally between the solid and porous interface contact points, with maximum stress on the solid and porous structures smaller than that of the respective yield strength. The introduction of a porous structure on the surface of the RAIs increased peri-implant bone stress, which increased with thickness of the porous layer. The 3-dimensionally printed porous RAI exhibited excellent initial stability immediately after implantation. After continual observation for 6 months, it was found that bone surrounding the root had infiltrated into the RAI, achieving good osseointegration. CONCLUSIONS Stress shielding can be reduced by decreasing the elastic modulus of the implant, with the interface between implant and bone allowing more appropriate stress conduction. A 1-piece porous RAI fabricated using 3-dimensional printing establishes a new indication for immediate implantation after extraction.
