(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The aim of this study was to study the association between dental fear, psychological distress, and perceived symptoms of teeth controlled for age, gender, educational sector, and tobacco use. The data from the Finnish ... -
Lipid, fatty acid, carnitine- and choline derivative profiles in rheumatoid arthritis outpatients with different degrees of periodontal inflammation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and periodontitis are chronic inflammatory diseases with several pathogenic pathways in common. Evidence supports an association between the diseases, but the exact underlying mechanisms behind ... -
Dental caries in children and adolescents with juvenile idiopathic arthritis and controls: a multilevel analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Optimal utilization of dental caries data is crucial in epidemiological research of individuals with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). The aims were to: explore whether caries is more prevalent among children ... -
Surface activation with oxygen plasma promotes osteogenesis with enhanced extracellular matrix formation in three- dimensional microporous scaffolds
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Various types of synthetic polyesters have been developed as biomaterials for tissue engineering. These materials commonly possess biodegradability, biocompatibility, and formability, which are preferable properties for ... -
Pre-cementation procedures’ effect on dental zirconias with different yttria content
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Objectve Several pre-cementation procedures have been advocated to enhance adhesion between zirconia and resin-based cement. There is, however, limited documentation on how these pre-treatments affect the strength of ... -
Induction of osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells on 3D polyester-based scaffolds solely by subphysiological fluidic stimulation in a laminar flow bioreactor
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The fatal determination of bone marrow mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (BMSC) is closely associated with mechano-environmental factors in addition to biochemical clues. The aim of this study was to induce osteogenesis in ... -
An ecological study on the association between universal health service coverage index, health expenditures, and early childhood caries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Universal health care (UHC) may assist families whose children are most prone to early childhood caries (ECC) in accessing dental treatment and prevention. The purpose of this study was to determine the association ... -
Perceived Preparedness of Dental Academic Institutions to Cope with the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Multi-Country Survey
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Dental academic institutions are affected by COVID-19. We assessed the perceived COVID-19 preparedness of these institutions and the characteristics of institutions with greater perceived preparedness. An international ... -
The effect of preparation taper on the resistance to fracture of monolithic zirconia crowns
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Objective Monolithic zirconia crowns have become a viable alternative to conventional layered restorations. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the taper, and thus wall thickness, of the abutment or pre-defined ... -
Oral Health Behaviour of Nine-Year-Old Children and Their Parents in Sarajevo
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The oral health situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina is among the worst in Europe. We investigated the oral health behaviour of primary schoolchildren and their parents in Sarajevo. This was an anonymous cross-sectional ... -
Altered surface hydrophilicity on copolymer scaffolds stimulate the osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background: Recent studies have suggested that both poly(l-lactide-co-1,5-dioxepan-2-one) (or poly(LLA-co-DXO)) and poly(l-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) (or poly(LLA-co-CL)) porous scaffolds are good candidates for use as ... -
Association between dental fear and eating disorders and Body Mass Index among Finnish university students: a national survey
