Exfoliative cytology as a tool for monitoring pre-malignant and malignant lesions based on combined stains and morphometric techniques
(2014)
Prevention and early diagnosis have the greatest potential for public health and are the most effective method in the long-term to control oral cancer. The aim was to apply PAP staining together with AgNOR staining and ...
Bisphosphonates study on effect of implant-bone interface
(2014)
Introduction: The success of any dental implant depends on a number of parameters including general health conditions, biocompatibility of implant materials, the nature of the surface of the microscopic and macroscopic ...
Effect of pre- and post-natal exposure to fluoride on fluorosis indicators in offspring of rats
(Elsevier, 2014)
Controversy exists over the maternal-fetal passage of fluoride (F-). This work sought to explore different aspects of F- metabolism during pregnancy and lactation in mothers and offspring. The specific aim was to study F- ...

(2014)
Candida albicans is an opportunistic fungus widely found in oral cavity, causing stomatological lesions. Chlorhexidine (CLX) and nystatin (NYS) are frequently employed in clinical dentistry. There are evidences of the ...
A comparative study of the behaviour/stress distribution (tensional forces) around short and standard length implants on the posterior area to the maxilla. Finite element analysis
(2014)
Current studies conclude that the maximum tension and the greater distribution of forces would occur around the implant neck endorsing the use of short implants. Objectives: Compare the distribution of tensions between a ...
Expression of key steroidogenic enzymes in developing brain: hormonal compensation of sex chromosomes-induced sex differences
(2014)
Developing brain of mammals is organized by gonadal steroids during the critical period of sexual differentiation (E18-PN10). The regulatory role of neurosteroids in the early brain is unclear. It is known that 17-β-estradiol ...
