eDentin- a tissue engineered reparative dentin
Summary Current dental restoration materials trigger immune responses and poorly replicate the natural structure of the tooth, which delays the healing process. The current technology is a novel biomaterial that more closely mimics natural dentin and thereby allows for more efficient healing of the tooth. Technology Overview Cement-based materials...

Polymerizable compounds for applications in dental materials
Summary Adhesives are widely used in dentistry to create a bond between teeth and restorative material, but current commercially available dental adhesives are often acidic and undergo degradation in the aqueous oral environment. Oregon Health & Science University researchers have developed an acrylamide based dental adhesive with reduced degradation...

A method to regenerate vascularized dental pulp for root canal dental therapy
Summary Current root canal therapies rely on removing necrotic tissue and filling the area with inert material, reducing vascularity in the dental pulp and overall health in the remaining tooth. The laboratory of Dr. Luiz Bertassoni has developed a novel root canal treatment that features a hydrogel filling with a hollow central chamber, which can...

Improved Dental Abutment Geometries for Cement-Retained Crowns
According to the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, over 500,000 dental implants are performed per year in the United States. Despite being such a common procedure, peri-implant disease has been found to affect as much as 48% of implants according to the American Academy of Periodontology. Inefficiencies of commercial dental implant systems have...

Multifunctional Ionic liquids for Surface Modification of Dental Implants
Titanium dental implants are known for their high success rates and adequate osseointegration in vivo. However, with an increasing number of implants used, higher incidence of failures has been reported. These failures have been associated with microbial colonization, peri-implant inflammation, corrosion, implant design, overload, as well as a combination...
