Anterior loop of the mental nerve: a morphological and radiographic study.
TLDR
Clinicians should not rely on panoramic radiographs for identifying the anterior loop of the mental nerve during implant treatment planning, however, a safe guideline of 4 mm, from the most anterior point of themental foramen, is recommended for implant treatment plans, on the basis of the anatomical findings.

In-vitro dissolution of magnesium-calcium binary alloys: clarifying the unique role of calcium additions in bioresorbable magnesium implant alloys.
TLDR
In this work, in vitro degradation conditions closer to the physiological environment were implemented through the addition of proteins to simulated body fluid and maintenance of a constant pH, with results highlighting that the use of a physiologically "correct" medium is essential for the in vitro screening of Mg-based alloys suitable for orthopaedic applications.

Magnesium biomaterials for orthopedic application: a review from a biological perspective.
TLDR
A summary of Mg as a biomaterial from a biological perspective is provided, including a description of the historical and modern applications for Mg in the medical field and a discussion of the methods used to control and assess Mg corrosion, with an emphasis on alloying.

Magnesium alloys: predicting in vivo corrosion with in vitro immersion testing.
TLDR
A simple in vitro immersion test is identified that could provide corrosion rates similar to those observed in vivo, and it is proposed that with this in vitro protocol, immersion of Mg alloys in EBSS can be used as a predictor of in vivo corrosion.

Bone-like matrix formation on magnesium and magnesium alloys
TLDR
It is concluded that in vitro cell culture of bone cells on Mg substrates is expected to be a viable screening technique to assess the relative biological activity of Mg-based materials.

Buffer-regulated biocorrosion of pure magnesium
TLDR
This study investigated the influence of the buffering system itself on the in vitro corrosion of Mg and found that the less realistic zwitterion-based buffer did not form the same corrosion layers as the carbonate buffer, and was potentially affecting the behaviour of the hydrated oxide layer that forms on Mg in all aqueous environments.

Substituted hydroxyapatites for bone regeneration: A review of current trends.
TLDR
It can be shown that a minor substituent cannot only alter the microstructure, stability and crystallinity of the HA structure in an implant, but also have a significant effect on bone cells colonizing the implant, which in turn can influence the new bone formation and bone remodeling processes.
