Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the removal efficiency of different capping materials used in pulp revascularization (PR) in a failure scenario. METHODS The apices of freshly extracted 30 maxillary incisors were cut to mimic the immature teeth; then, root canals were shaped up to #6 Peeso reamers. The regeneration steps of the American Association of Endodontists (AAE) were followed to simulate PR treatment in vitro. The canals were dressed with the Ciprofloxacin and Metronidazole medicament mixture for 2 weeks. Then capping material groups were created: BioDentine (BD), ProRootMTA (PMTA), and RetroMTA (RMTA) (n = 10). The sealed specimens were stored for 2 weeks at 37 ºC in phosphate-buffered saline then the samples were examined by micro-computed tomography (µ-CT) analysis. Set capping materials were retrieved using a specific cement removal kit by a single blind operator. The residue materials were examined again by µCT. Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests sought the significance for residue volumes. One-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc tests with the Bonferroni corrections sought significance for the duration (p = 0.05). RESULTS In the first examined µCT data, the mean (SD) capping material volumes of the PMTA, BD, and RMTA were 6.447 µm3 (1.086), 8.771 µm3 (0.491), and 8.114 µm3 (2.447), respectively. In the last examined µCT data, the median (IQR) residual volumes of the PMTA, BD, and RMTA were 0.051 µm3 (0.1), 0.313 µm3 (0.5), and 0.124 µm3 (0.1), respectively. A significant difference was found between BD and PMTA in the residual volumes (p < 0.05). The mean (SD) durations of the retrieving procedures of PMTA, BD, and RMTA were 19.83 min (2.34), 19.24 (3.60), and 22.04 (1.68), respectively (p = 0.063). CONCLUSIONS Within the limitations of the presented study, it was concluded that the capping materials were largely removed from the root canals using a non-invasive approach. Nevertheless, this duration of the retrieving could be described as long.

Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine the influence of preparation techniques on marginal adaptation and sealing of Biodentine™ and TotalFill® RRM bioceramic retrograde fillings. Fifty-two single-root teeth extracted for periodontal reasons were used. Root canals were instrumented using Reciproc Blue #25 and obturated using a single cone technique with an AH Plus® root canal sealer. Retrograde cavities were prepared with Piezomed device (Piezo), Er:YAG laser in short-pulse(SP) and quantum square pulse(QSP) modes and filled with Biodentine™ (BD) or TotalFill® RRM (TF). There were 6 groups (n=8): (1) Piezo BD, (2) Piezo TF, (3) SP BD, (4) SP TF, (5) QSP BD, and (6) QSP TF, and positive and negative controls (n=2). Micro-CT analysis was performed on two samples from each group. Percentage volumes of internal and external voids in apical 1.5 mm were determined. Rhodamine B dye leakage was done on six samples. The samples were cut longitudinally and examined under a stereomicroscope. Digital recordings were analyzed in ImageJ software. The deepest penetration of color in mm was recorded. The data were statistically analyzed using ANOVA and Duncan's test at the level of significance α=0.05. TotalFill® RRM performed significantly better than Biodentine™ in terms of sealing (p<0.05) and marginal adaptation, as evaluated by micro-CT. Sealing was significantly better in SP compared to QSP mode preparations (p<0.05). Differences between Piezomed and laser modes were not significantly different (p>0.05). Sealing was statistically significantly better with TotalFill® RRM compared to Biodentine™ and in Er:YAG SP preparations compared to Er:YAG QSP.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to volumetrically assess changes in the periodontal microstructure under antiresorptive therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Microtomographic scans from a total of 9 Dutch Belted rabbits having been randomly allocated to either the intravenous administration of amino-bisphosphonate (zoledronic acid) (Za) (n = 5) or a negative control group (nZa) (n = 4) were obtained at 10 months following a repeated drug administration. A quantification of the periodontal space thickness (P.Th) of both maxillary and mandibular most posterior premolars, as well as of the 2nd molars was performed. Bone micromorphometry was assessed by means of bone volume per total volume (BV/TV), the bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), trabecular number (Tb.N), bone surface (BS), and the specific bone surface (BS/BV). RESULTS Za was associated with significantly higher P.Th (P = 0.010), which was most pronounced in the upper jaw. Bone micromorphometry revealed no significant differences among the two groups, i.e., Za and nZa, for all the investigated parameters. CONCLUSIONS Volumetric analysis revealed that antiresorptive therapy was associated with periodontal space widening, whereas major effects on the bone micro-morphology could not be observed. CLINICAL RELEVANCE A deep understanding of specific periodontal and alveolar bone alterations in patients under antiresorptive therapy might help to prevent the onset of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw.

Abstract
This study explored the influence of fibrous and filmy polyethylene terephthalate (PET) on the transportation of nanoplastics (NPs) in saturated porous media. With the strong electrostatic repulsion, the negatively charged PET fibers (-57.5 mV) improved the transport of NPs, and the mass percentage of NPs recovered from the effluent (Meff) increased from 69.3% to 86.7%. However, PET films (-49.7 mV) showed the opposite result, that is, Meff decreased from 69.3% to 57.0%. X-ray micro-computed tomography quantitatively revealed the change in effective porosity of porous media before and after adding various PET MPs. The addition of 10 mm fiber increased the porosity from 0.39 to 0.43, whereas the addition of 10 × 10 mm2 film reduced the porosity from 0.39 to 0.29. The fiber-facilitated transport of NPs is presumably due to the formation of new connected pores between fibers and sand grains, whereas the film-inhibited transport of NPs may be due to the partial truncation of transport path of NPs. Overall, the effect of coexisting MPs on the mobility of NPs strongly relies on the shape and size of MPs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the hard tissue volumetric and soft tissue contour linear changes in implants with two different implant surface characteristics after a ligature-induced peri-implantitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS In eight beagle dogs, implants with the same size and diameter but distinct surface characteristics were placed in the healed mandibular sites. Test implants had an external monolayer of multi-phosphonate molecules (B+), while control implants were identical but without the phosphonate-rich surface. Once the implants were osseointegrated, oral hygiene was interrupted and peri-implantitis was induced by placing subgingival ligatures. After 16 weeks, the ligatures were removed and peri-implantitis progressed spontaneously. Bone to implant contact (BIC) and bone loss (BL) were assessed three-dimensionally with Micro-Ct (μCT). Dental casts were optically scanned and the obtained digitalized standard tessellation language (STL) images were used to assess the soft tissue vertical and horizontal contour linear changes. RESULTS Reduction of the three-dimensional BIC percentage during the induction and progression phases of the experimental peri-implantitis was similar for both the experimental and control implants, without statistically significant differences between them. Soft tissue analysis revealed for both implant groups an increase in horizontal dimension after the induction of peri-implantitis, followed by a decrease after the spontaneous progression period. In the vertical dimension, a soft tissue dehiscence was observed in both groups, being more pronounced at the buccal aspect. CONCLUSIONS The added phosphonate-rich surface did not provide a more resistant environment against experimental peri-implantitis, when assessed by the changes in bone volume and soft tissue contours. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Ligature-induced peri-implantitis is a validated model to study the tissue changes occurring during peri-implantitis. It was hypothesized that a stronger osseointegration mediated by the chemical bond of a phosphonate-rich implant surface would develop an environment more resistant to the inflammatory changes occurring after experimental peri-implantitis. These results, however, indicate that the hard and soft tissue destructive changes occurring at both the induction and progression phases of experimental peri-implantitis were not influenced by the quality of osseointegration.

Abstract
This study was conducted to develop an in-line near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy approach that allows real time quantitative analysis of the coating weight gain on a moving tablet surface during a coating process where talc is used. A holder directly inserting a diffuse reflectance probe into a coating pan was designed, and the optimal measurement conditions were identified using the design of experiments (DoE). The surface of the probe was kept clean of coating droplets at a maximum distance between the probe and the holder of 272.5 mm, leading to the acquisition of accurate spectral data. Under this condition, partial least squares regression (PLSR) was developed using the spectra from 7197 to 6233 cm-1, which covers the specific peaks for the core tablet and the coating solution. Under the same conditions, least squares regression (LSR) was developed using the univariate predictive analysis of the single absorption spectrum of talc at 7181 cm-1. In a comparison of the accuracy of the two models, PLSR was found to be more accurate as a result of testing the significance of differences between these distributions in terms of the root mean square errors of prediction (RMSEP) using a randomization t-test. Additionally, it confirmed that the predicted weight gain using NIR spectroscopy was correlated with the coating thickness measured using micro-CT. In conclusion, this study developed an in-line NIR measurement approach for the real-time monitoring of the coating weight gain of tablets and optimized the conditions by evaluating the effect of various factors.

Abstract
PURPOSE Low-magnitude, high-frequency (LMHF) loading plays an important role in bone healing. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of LMHF loading applied directly to titanium dental implants on peri-implant bone healing and implant osseointegration. METHODS The mandibular premolars and molars were extracted from six male Beagle dogs. Three months post-extraction, each of the six dogs had three titanium implants (Aadva Standard Implant Narrow, Φ3.3×8mm) inserted into the mandibular premolar and molar area (three implants per side). In each animal, one side was randomly selected to undergo daily LMHF loading (treatment group), while the other side had no further intervention (control). The loading was applied directly to the implant abutment using an individual jig and a custom-made loading device (8μm, 100Hz). The implant stability quotient (ISQ) was tested every week. Three dogs were euthanized after 2 weeks, and three were euthanized after 8 weeks. Tissue samples were fixed and stained for micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and histomorphometric analyses. Data were analyzed statistically, with significance set at p<0.05. RESULTS The treatment group had significantly increased peri-implant bone volume relative to tissue volume in region of interest 2 (100-500μm) compared with the control group after 2 weeks of loading (p<0.05); however, there was no significant difference between groups after 8 weeks. The ISQ value and the micro-CT results did not differ between groups during the study period. CONCLUSIONS LMHF loading positively influenced peri-implant bone healing in the early healing period.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Osteogenic protein-1 (OP-1) has shown osteoinductive activities and is useful for clinical treatments, including bone regeneration. Regenerative procedures using a bioabsorbable collagen membrane (BCM) are well established in periodontal and implant dentistry. We evaluated the subsequent effects of the BCM in combination with OP-1 on bone regeneration in a rat mandibular circular critical-sized bone defect in vivo. DESIGN We used 8 rats that received surgery in both sides of the mandible, and created the total 16 defects which were divided into 4 groups: Group 1; no treatment, as a control, Group 2; BCM alone, Group 3; BCM containing low dose 0.5μg of OP-1 (L-OP-1), and Group 4; BCM containing high dose 2.0μg of OP-1 (H-OP-1). Newly formed bone was evaluated by micro computed tomography (micro-CT) and histological analyses at 8 weeks postoperatively. In quantitative and qualitative micro-CT analyses of the volume of new bone formation, bone density, and percentage of new bone area was evaluated. RESULTS BCM with rhOP-1 significantly increased and accelerated bone volume, bone mineral density, and percentage of new bone area compared to control and BCM alone at 8 weeks after surgery; these enhancements in bone regeneration in the OP-1-treated groups were dose-dependent. CONCLUSIONS OP-1 delivered with a BCM may have effective osteoinductive potency and be a good combination for bone regeneration. The use of such a combination device for osteogenesis may result in safer and more predictable bone regenerative outcomes in the future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate intermittent hypoxia (IH) induced changes in craniofacial morphology and bone mineral density (BMD) in the mandible of growing rats. DESIGN Seven-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to IH for 4 days or 3 weeks. Sham-operated rats simultaneously breathed room air. Lateral and transverse cephalometric radiographs of the craniofacial region were obtained, and the linear distances between cephalometric landmarks were statistically analyzed. BMD and bone microstructure of the mandible were evaluated using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). RESULTS Cephalometric analyses demonstrated that exposure to IH only in the two groups for 3 weeks decreased the size of the mandibular and viscerocranial bones, but not that of the neurocranial bones, in early adolescent rats. These findings are consistent with upper airway narrowing and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Micro-CT showed that IH increased the BMD in the cancellous bone of the mandibular condyle and the inter-radicular alveolar bone in the mandibular first molar (M1) region. CONCLUSIONS This study is the first to identify growth retardation of the craniofacial bones in an animal model of sleep apnea. Notably, 3 weeks of IH can induce multiple changes in the bones around the upper airway in pubertal rats, which can enhance upper airway narrowing and the development of OSA. The reproducibility of these results supports the validity and usefulness of this model. These findings also emphasize the critical importance of morphometric evaluation of patients with OSA.
