Fracture resistance of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing-generated composite resin-based molar crowns
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-02-16)The aim of this study was to investigate whether different fabrication processes, such as the computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) system or the manual build-up technique, affect the fracture resistance of composite resin-based crowns. Lava Ultimate (LU), Estenia C&B (EC&B), and lithium disilicate glass-ceramic IPS e.max press (EMP) were used. Four types of molar crowns were ... -

Comparing caries risk profiles between 5- and 10- year-old children with cleft lip and/or palate and non-cleft controls
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-07-25)Background: Previous studies have suggested that children with oral clefts may have higher caries prevalence in comparison with non-cleft controls but the relative importance of the potential risk factors is not clear. The aim of this study was to compare the caries risk profiles in a group of cleft lip and/or palate (CL(P)) children with non-cleft controls in the same age using a computerized ... -
Fracture resistance of monolithic zirconia molar crowns with reduced thickness
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-01-30)Objectives. The purpose of the present study was to analyze the relationship between fracture load of monolithic zirconia crowns and axial/occlusal thickness, and to evaluate the fracture resistance of monolithic zirconia crowns with reduced thickness in comparison with that of monolithic lithium disilicate crowns with regular thickness.

Nuclear Legumain Activity in Colorectal Cancer
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)The cysteine protease legumain is involved in several biological and pathological processes, and the protease has been found over-expressed and associated with an invasive and metastatic phenotype in a number of solid tumors. Consequently, legumain has been proposed as a prognostic marker for certain cancers, and a potential therapeutic target. Nevertheless, details on how legumain advances ... -
Language of motivation and emotion in an internet support group for smoking cessation: Explorative use of automated content analysis to measure regulatory focus
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014)The present study describes a novel approach to the identification of the motivational processes in text data extracted from an Internet support group (ISG) for smoking cessation. Based on the previous findings that a “prevention” focus might be more relevant for maintaining behavior change, it was hypothesized that 1) language use (ie, the use of emotional words) signaling a “promotion” focus would ... -

Willingness and ability to pay for unexpected dental expenses by Finnish adults
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)Since 2002, adults have been able to choose oral health care services in the public sector or in the private sector in Finland.
