introduction: : low level laser therapy (lllt) is gaining acceptance in clinical applications. for example, it is used as therapeutic modality in the repair of diabetic foot ulcer when conventional therapy was not effective, separately. the aim of this study is to determine the effect of local and travenous lllt for the healing of diabetic foot ulcer. methods:   this study contains 74 diabetic ...

Collagen fibre organisation and fibril size were studied in the buccal gingival and hard palate mucosa of Macacus rhesus monkey. Light and electron microscopy analysis showed connective papillae exhibiting a similar inner structure in the different areas examined, but varying in distribution, shape and size. Moving from the deep to surface layers of the buccal gingival mucosa (free and attached...

tissue-engineered gingival graft was used for regenerating facial gingiva around an implant at lower left first premolar area with insufficient attached gingiva. engineered gingival graft was produced by mixing 250 ml bovine skin collagen with 250 ml nutritional medium containing human gingival fibroblasts (2×105). 3 months post-surgery, there were gains in the attached gingiva compared to pre-...

introduction: the aim of this study was to assess the effect of low-level laser therapy (lllt) on pain, swelling and maximum mouth opening in patients undergoing third molar surgery. methods: a prospective, randomized double-blind study was undertaken on 44 patients at the dental school, ahvaz jundishapur university of medical sciences, in 2015. a low-level laser was randomly applied on one of ...

In a previous study, we evaluated the findings related to the use of resorbable collagen membranes in humans along with DFDBA (demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft). The aim of this subsequent study was to histometrically evaluate in dogs, the healing response of gingival recessions treated with collagen membrane + DFDBA (Guided Tissue Regeneration, GTR) compared to a coronally positioned ...

Conducting mesoporous TiO2 is rapidly gaining importance for green energy applications. To optimise performance, its porosity and crystallinity must be carefully fine-tuned. To this end, we have performed a detailed study on the temperature dependence of TiO2 crystallisation in mesoporous films. Crystal nucleation and growth of initially amorphous TiO2 derived by hydrolytic sol-gel chemistry is...
