Journal ArticleDOI

Additive manufacturing of ceramics for dental applications: A review.

Raquel Galante, +3 more
- 01 Jun 2019 - 
TL;DR: A detailed and comprehensive description of the published work from the past decade regarding AM of ceramic materials with possible applications in dentistry is provided, underlining their advantages and main drawbacks.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comparative study of titanium nitrides, TiN, TiNbN and TiCN, as coatings for biomedical applications

Ana Paula Serro, +9 more
- 15 Sep 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of three titanium nitride coatings: TiN, TiNbN, and TiCN for biomedical applications was assessed in terms of their surface properties and cytotoxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wetting behaviour of femtosecond laser textured Ti–6Al–4V surfaces

Alexandre Cunha, +7 more
- 15 Jan 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the wetting behavior of biomedical grade Ti-6Al-4V alloy surfaces textured by femtosecond laser treatment and obtained four main types of surface textures depending on the processing parameters and laser treatment method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Friction and wear mechanisms in hip prosthesis: Comparison of joint materials behaviour in several lubricants

M.P. Gispert, +3 more
- 01 Jan 2006 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the interfacial behavior of prosthetic material/lubricant was investigated through wettability measurements, and it was observed that the presence of albumin in the lubricant avoids the adhesion and transfer of UHMWPE only for the least hydrophilic surfaces, which are the metallic ones.
Journal ArticleDOI

Femtosecond laser surface texturing of titanium as a method to reduce the adhesion of Staphylococcus aureus and biofilm formation

Alexandre Cunha, +9 more
- 01 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the possibility of using femtosecond laser surface texturing as a method to reduce the colonization of Titanium alloy surfaces by Staphylococcus aureus and the subsequent formation of biofilm.
