Base-metal dental casting alloy biocompatibility assessment using a human-derived 3D oral mucosal model
(2012)Nickel-chromium (Ni-Cr) alloys used in fixed prosthodontics have been associated with type IV nickel-induced hypersensitivity. We hypothesized the full-thickness human-derived oral mucosa model employed for biocompatibility ... -
Behavioral analysis of Brazilian children participating in the “Baby’s Little Mouth Program” at Gurupi-Tocantins
(2017)The behavioral response of the child has been studied in some researches and is useful to predict how the child reacts to dental treatment, especially infants and young children, which is one of the greatest challenges of ... -
CANDIDA ALBICANS VERSUS CANDIDA DUBLINIENSIS: WHY IS C. ALBICANS MORE PATHOGENIC?
(2012)Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis are highly related pathogenic yeast species. However, C. albicans is far more prevalent in human infection and has been shown to be more pathogenic in a wide range of infection ... -
The Candida albicans-Specific Gene EED1 Encodes a Key Regulator of Hyphal Extension
(2011)The extension of germ tubes into elongated hyphae by Candida albicans is essential for damage of host cells. The C. albicans-specific gene EED1 plays a crucial role in this extension and maintenance of filamentous growth. ... -
Candida dubliniensis: An update
(1999)The increased incidence of fungal infections during the last decade has been well-documented. Given that one of the most important factors contributing to this phenomenon is the increased numbers of immunocompromised ... -
CHARACTERIZATION OF A NOVEL ARGININE CATABOLIC MOBILE ELEMENT (ACME) AND STAPHYLOCOCCAL CHROMOSOMAL CASSETTE mec COMPOSITE ISLAND WITH SIGNIFICANT HOMOLOGY TO STAPHYLOCOCCUS EPIDERMIDIS ACME TYPE II IN METHICILLIN-RESISTANT STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS GENOTYPE ST22-MRSA-IV
(2011)The arginine catabolic mobile element (ACME) is prevalent among ST8-MRSA-IVa (USA300) isolates and evidence suggests that ACME enhances the ability of ST8-MRSA-IVa to grow and survive on its host. ACME has been identified ... -
A clinical and biochemical investigation on the effects of non-surgical periodontal treatment of chronic and aggressive periodontitis. A comparative study.
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Dental Sciences. Discipline of Dental Science, 2018)Although Chronic (CP) and Aggressive Periodontitis (GAP) were classified in the 1999 world workshop and specific defining characteristics have been identified in this classification, clinically it is difficult to differentiate ... -
Clinical experience of undergraduate dental students in paediatric dentistry: A 5-year cross-sectional study
(2022)Introduction: The clinical experience of undergraduate dental students in Paediatric Dentistry has a profound influence on their future confidence. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical experience of ... -
COMPARATIVE ADHERENCE OF CANDIDA ALBICANS AND CANDIDA DUBLINIENSIS TO HUMAN BUCCAL EPITHELIAL CELLS AND EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX PROTEINS
(2014)Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis are very closely related pathogenic yeast species. Despite their close relationship, the former is a far more successful coloniser and pathogen of humans. The purpose of the current ... -
Comparative analysis of the filamentous growth regulators EED1 in Candida albicans and MDP1 in Candida dubliniensis
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Dental Science, 2009)Candida albicans, the major fungal pathogen in humans is closely related to Candida dubliniensis. C. dubliniensis is less virulent than C. albicans in all models of infection. Comparative analysis of the C. albicans and ... -
COMPARATIVE GENOMICS USING CANDIDA ALBICANS DNA MICROARRAYS REVEALS ABSENCE AND DIVERGENCE OF VIRULENCE ASSOCIATED GENES IN CANDIDA DUBLINIENSIS
(2004)Candida dubliniensis is a pathogenic yeast species closely related to Candida albicans. However, it is less frequently associated with human disease and displays reduced virulence in animal models of infection. We have ... -
A comparative study of the effect of one-suture and suture-less techniques on post-operative complications following third molar surgery
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Dental Sciences. Discipline of Dental Science, 2017)Title: A comparative study of the effect of one-suture and suture-less techniques on post-operative complications following third molar surgery. Author: Dr Saleh Alkadi BDS(Hons), MFDS RCSI, NBDE Objective: Lower third ... -
COMPARATIVE TRANSCRIPT PROFILING OF Candida albicans AND Candida dubliniensis IDENTIFIES SFL2, A C. albicans GENE REQUIRED FOR VIRULENCE IN A RECONSTITUTED EPITHELIAL INFECTION MODEL
(2010)Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis are closely related species displaying differences in virulence and genome content, therefore providing potential opportunities to identify novel C. albicans virulence genes. C. ... -
A Comparison of Hand Tracing and Computerised Cephalometric Analysis
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Dental Sciences. Discipline of Dental Science, 2021)The aim of this study was to determine if automated computerised cephalometric analysis with Planmeca Romexis® (Version 5.1.1.R) dental imaging software is as accurate as traditional hand tracing in terms ... -
Comparison of three internal fixation techniques in mandibular sagittal split osteotomy, a finite element analysis
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Dental Sciences. Discipline of Dental Science, 2018)Various internal fixation techniques are used in orthognathic surgery. The aim of this study was to analyse and compare the biomechanical properties of three internal fixation techniques (2.0mm bi-cortical screws, 2.0mm ...
