Abstract
BACKGROUND Bioceramic cements have been widely used in endodontic treatment. This study aimed to compare the microhardness, elastic modulus, internal microstructure and chemical compositions of Biodentine, WMTA, ERRM Putty, iRoot FS and IRM after exposure to PBS, butyric acid, and butyric acid followed by PBS. METHODS Specimens of each material were prepared and randomly divided into 5 subgroups (n = 5): subgroup A: PBS (pH = 7.4) for 4 days, subgroup B: PBS (pH = 7.4) for 14 days, subgroup C: butyric acid (pH = 5.4) for 4 days, subgroup D: butyric acid (pH = 5.4) for 14 days, subgroup E: butyric acid for 4 days followed by 10 days in contact with PBS. The surface microhardness, elastic modulus, internal morphologic and chemical compositions of specimens were analyzed. RESULTS The microhardness and elastic modulus values of all materials were significantly higher in the presence of PBS compared to exposure to butyric acid, with the same setting time (P < 0.01). After 4-day exposure to butyric acid followed by 10-day exposure to PBS, the microhardness values returned to the same level as 4-day exposure to PBS (P > 0.05). Biodentine showed significantly higher microhardness and elastic modulus values than other materials, while IRM displayed the lowest (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Biodentine seems the most suitable bioceramic cements when applied to an infected area with acidic pH. Further storage at neutral pH, e.g. PBS reverses the adverse effects on bioceramic cements caused by a low pH environment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Investigate the effect of various liquids on the optical properties and Vickers hardness of conventional, milled and 3D-printed denture teeth. METHODS Six different types of denture teeth (Maxillary anteriors of three different conventional teeth, Vivodent DCL, SR Phonares II, Vita Physiodens; milled teeth, IvotionDent; and two different 3D-printed teeth, Asiga DentaTooth and NextDent C&B MFH) were investigated (total n = 336). The labial surface of each specimen was prepared to a dimension of 10 × 5 × 3mm. Specimens were immersed in artificial saliva, coffee, red wine and denture cleaner with artificial aging to simulate denture use of 12 and 24 months in vivo. Measurements of translucency parameter (TP), shade change (ΔE), surface roughness (Ra) and Vickers hardness (VHN) were conducted at baseline and after artificial aging while immersed in the liquids at each timeframe. Data were statistically analysed by ANOVA and post-hoc test (SPSS Ver 27). Surfaces of specimens were analysed under scanning electron microscopy (SEM). RESULTS Milled teeth had the highest overall translucency parameter (5.33 ± 0.76-7.3 ± 0.99). All materials had statistically significant change in translucency parameter and shade after 24 months simulated aging (p < 0.05), especially the milled and 3D-printed teeth (p < 0.01). Surface roughness of all materials were under plaque accumulation threshold Ra = 0.2 μm. At baseline, Vita Physiodens teeth (PMMA with microfillers) demonstrated the highest hardness (33.99 kgf/mm2±3.7), whereas both 3D-printed materials exhibited the lowest hardness (13.27 kgf/mm2±0.36-18.13 kgf/mm2±0.93). Artificial saliva, red wine and denture cleaner had a statistically significant impact (p < 0.05) on hardness of all materials (12.1 kgf/mm2±1.17-30.77 kgf/mm2±2.98). CONCLUSIONS Milled teeth exhibited the best optical properties (highest overall translucency parameter and lowest shade change). Milled teeth were also the only material that showed colour change (ΔE values) within clinically acceptable limits. Denture cleaner had the most impact on optical and mechanical properties of all materials. Surface roughness and hardness of 3D-printed teeth had the most change after artificial aging.

Abstract
Objective: This study analyzed the effect of ionizing radiation on bone microarchitecture and biomechanical properties in the bone tissue surrounding a dental implant. Methodology: Twenty rabbits received three dental morse taper junction implants: one in the left tibia and two in the right tibia. The animals were randomized into two groups: the nonirradiated group (control group) and the irradiated group, which received 30 Gy in a single dose 2 weeks after the implant procedure. Four weeks after the implant procedure, the animals were sacrificed, and the implant/bone specimens were used for each experiment. The specimens (n=10) of the right tibia were examined by microcomputed tomography to measure the cortical volume (CtV, mm3), cortical thickness (CtTh, mm) and porosity (CtPo, %). The other specimens (n=10) were examined by dynamic indentation to measure the elastic modulus (E, GPa) and Vickers hardness (VHN, N/mm2) in the bone. The specimens of the left tibia (n=10) were subjected to pull-out tests to calculate the failure load (N), displacement (mm) up to the failure point and interface stiffness (N/mm). In the irradiated group, two measurements were performed: close, at 1 mm surrounding the implant surface, and distant, at 2.5 mm from the external limit of the first measurement. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, Tukey’s test and Student’s t-test (α=0.05). Results: The irradiated bone closer to the implant surface had lower elastic modulus (E), Vickers hardness (VHN), Ct.Th, and Ct.V values and a higher Ct.Po value than the bone distant to the implant (P<0.04). The irradiated bone that was distant from the implant surface had lower E, VHN, and Ct.Th values and a higher Ct.Po value than the nonirradiated bone (P<0.04). The nonirradiated bone had higher failure loads, displacements and stiffness values than the irradiated bone (P<0.02). Conclusion: Ionizing radiation in dental implants resulted in negative effects on the microarchitecture and biomechanical properties of bone tissue, mainly near the surface of the implant.

Abstract
Bioinspired by the aligned structure and building blocks of bone, this work mineralized the aligned bacterial cellulose (BC) through in situ mineralization using CaCl2 and K2HPO4 solutions. The cellulose nanofibers were aligned by a scalable stretching process. The aligned and mineralized bacterial cellulose (AMBC) homogeneously incorporated hydroxyapatite (HAP) with a high mineral content and exhibited excellent mechanical strength. The ordered 3D structure allowed the AMBC composite to achieve a high elastic modulus and hardness and the development of a nanostructure inspired by natural bone. The AMBC composite exhibited an elastic modulus of 10.91 ± 3.26 GPa and hardness of 0.37 ± 0.18 GPa. Compared with the nonaligned mineralized bacterial cellulose (NMBC) composite with mineralized crystals of HAP randomly distributed into the BC scaffolds, the AMBC composite possessed a 210% higher elastic modulus and 95% higher hardness. The obtained AMBC composite had excellent mechanical properties by mimicking the natural structure of bone, which indicated that the organic BC aerogel with aligned nanofibers was a promising template for biomimetic mineralization.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the ionizing radiation (IR) effects on rat bone 30 and 60 days after irradiation. Methods Wistar rats were submitted to IR (30 Gy) on the left leg and were euthanized after 30 and 60 days. The legs were divided into four groups according to the treatment and euthanization time: C30 and C60 (right leg–without IR), IR30 and IR60 (left leg-with IR). Results CT analysis showed more radiodensity in C60 compared with other groups, and IR60 showed more radiodensity than IR30. In histomorphometric analysis, C30 showed lower bone matrix values compared with IR30 and C60. Lacunarity analyses showed more homogeneous bone channel distribution in C30 than IR30. ATR-FTIR showed decrease in ratio of mature and immature crosslinks in IR30 compared with C30. Crystallinity Index was decrease in IR60 compared with C60. The Amide III + Collagen/HA ratio was increased in C60 compared with C30; however this ratio decreased in IR60 compared with IR30. Biomechanical analysis showed lower values in IR groups in both time. Conclusions IR damaged bone quality and decreased stiffness. Moreover, the results suggested that the deleterious effects of IR increased in the late time points.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Radiation-related caries are one the most undesired reactions manifested during or after head and neck radiotherapy. Fluoride application is an important strategy to reduce demineralization and enhance remineralizaton. To evaluate the effect of the topical application of fluoride during irradiation on dental enamel demineralization. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty molars were randomly divided into three groups: Non-irradiated (NI), Irradiated (I), Irradiated with fluoride (IF). Each group was subdivided according to the presence or absence of pH-cycling (n=5). In the irradiated groups, the teeth received 70 Gy. The enamel's chemical composition was measured using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry (organic matrix/mineral ratio - M/M and relative carbonate content - RCC). Vickers microhardness (VHN) and elastic modulus (E) were evaluated at three depths (surface, middle and deep enamel). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to assess the enamel's morphology. RESULTS The FTIR analysis (M/M and RCC) showed significant differences for irradiation, pH-cycling and the interaction between factors (p<0.001). Without pH-cycling, IF had the lowest organic matrix/mineral ratio and relative carbonate content. With pH-cycling, the organic matrix/mineral ratio increased and the relative carbonate content decreased, except for IF. VHN was influenced only by pH-cycling (p<0.001), which generated higher VHN values. ANOVA detected significant differences in E for irradiation (p<0.001), pH-cycling (p<0.001) and for the interaction between irradiation and pH-cycling (p<0.001). Increased E was found for group I without pH-cycling. With pH-cycling, groups I and IF were similar, and showed higher values than NI. The SEM images showed no morphological changes without pH-cycling. With pH-cycling, fluoride helped to maintain the outer enamel's morphology. CONCLUSIONS Fluoride reduced mineral loss and maintained the outer morphology of irradiated and cycled enamel. However, it was not as effective in preserving the mechanical properties of enamel. Radiotherapy altered the enamel's elastic modulus and its chemical composition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the effects of radiotherapy on biomechanical, histomorphometric, and microstructural characteristics of bone, in diverse periods, compared with intact bone tissue. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighteen adult male New Zealand rabbits were treated with a single radiation dose of 30 Gy. The animals were randomly divided into six groups: NoIr, control group, no radiation, and five irradiated groups sacrificed after 24 h (Ir24h), 7 (Ir7d), 14 (Ir14d), 21 (Ir21d), and 28 (Ir28d) days. After these periods, the animals were sacrificed and their tibias (n = 6) evaluated using three-point bending test to calculate the ultimate force, work to failure, and bone stiffness. Dynamic indentation test was used to quantify Vickers hardness and elasticity modulus of bone tissue. Micro-CT was used to analyze the cortical volume (CtV), cortical thickness (CtTh), and porosity (Ct.Po). Histomorphometric assessment was based on the lacunarity of bone tissue. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis tests followed by Tukey, Dunnet, and Dunn's post-tests (P < 0.05). RESULTS The ultimate force, work to failure, stiffness, elastic modulus, and Vickers hardness values of irradiated bone were significantly lower that non-irradiated bone. Irradiated bone showed significantly lower CtTh and CtV values and higher CtPo than non-irradiated bone. No significant difference was found for lacunarity between non-irradiated bone and irradiated bone. CONCLUSIONS Ionizing radiation decreases normal anisotropy on microarchitecture of cortical bone, and increases bone fragility compared with non-irradiated bone. Further, these changes were seen after longer periods (e.g., 14 and 21 days), and not immediately after radiation therapy. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The radiotherapy reduces bone mechanical properties and the normal structure of organic and inorganic bone matrix. For studying the protocols to protect the radiotherapy effect using rabbit model, the use of the sacrificing period between 14 and 21 days is recommended.

Abstract
This paper studies the stress state of a threaded fastening by using Finite Element (FE) models, applied to surgical screws in cortical bone. There is a general interest in studying the stress states induced in the different elements of a joint caused by the thread contact. Analytical models were an initial approach, and later FE models allowed detailed studies of the complex phenomena related to these joints. Different studies have evaluated standard threaded joints in machinery and structures, being the thread symmetric. However, surgical screws employ asymmetric thread geometry, selected to improve the stress level generated in the bone. Despite the interest and widespread use, there is scarce documentation on the actual effect of this thread type. In this work, we discuss the results provided by FE models with detailed descriptions of the contacts comparing differences caused by the materials of the joint, the thread geometry and the thread’s three-dimensional helical effects. The complex contacts at the threaded surfaces cause intense demand on computational resources that often limits the studies including these joints. We analyze the results provided by one commercial software package to simplify the threaded joints. The comparison with detailed FE models allows a definition of the level of uncertainty and possible limitations of this type of simplifications, and helps in making suitable choices for complex applications.

Abstract
The Ti6Al4V alloy constitutes an alternative choice to the most common metal-polymer solutions for total hip arthroplasty (THA) due to good biocompatibility, optimal mechanical properties and high load bearing capacity. However, as Ti6Al4V is not bioactive in its conventional form, hydroxyapatite (HAp) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP) have been widely used as coatings of metal prostheses due to their osteogenic properties and ability to form strong bonds with bone tissue. A promising approach consists in creating a bioactive surface metal matrix composite Ti6Al4V+β-TCP or Ti6Al4V+HAp, obtained by hot pressing (HP) of powders. In this work, the tribological performance of Ti6Al4V+β-TCP and Ti6Al4V+HAp composites is studied to evaluate the frictional response and surface damage representative of prosthesis implantation, key factors in bone fixation. Biocomposites with 10vol% β-TCP and 10vol% Hap, as well as base titanium alloy, were prepared by HP with two surface finishing conditions - polished (Ra=0.3-0.5μm) and sandblasted (Ra=2.1-2.5μm) - for tribological testing against bovine cortical bone tissue. The static friction increases with surface roughness (from 0.20 to 0.60), whereas the kinetic regime follows an inverse trend for the biocomposites. In contrast with current knowledge, this study shows that an implant design solution based on Ti6Al4V+β-TCP or Ti6Al4V+HAp biocomposites with polished surfaces results in an improved primary stability of implants, when compared to traditional rough surfaces. Moreover, it is also expected that the secondary stability will improve due to the adhesion between bone and HAp/β-TCP, increasing the overall stability of the implant.
