In the realm of dental implantology, understanding bacterial adhesion mechanisms is essential. Recent research led by Steve Papa and fellow researchers at the Jean Monnet University in Saint-Étienne, France, revealed the intricate relationship between surface topography and bacterial adhesion, with a particular focus on Porphyromonas gingivalis, a bacterium closely associated with dental implant failure.
A team of researchers at King’s College London worked on ways to improve the understanding of the erosive tooth wear process, and also investigated innovative techniques for clinicians to monitor and treat it.
Researchers in tissue engineering & biophotonics at King’s College London (UK) seeking to attain better understanding of tooth enamel erosion recently applied its methods to bring to light micro-scale surface changes over time.
