Analyzing the Effectiveness of Apriori Algorithm-Based Nano-Hydroxyapatite Composite Resin Implants for Dental Bone Defect Restoration in Athletes: Implications for Fitness and Physical Health

Abstract

Nano-hydroxyapatite has been employed extensively in dental procedures for the treatment of dental hypersensitivity and complete remineralization due to its biocompatibility and role as a primary component of the mineral structure of teeth and bones. As one of the most researched biomaterials in clinical and dental fields, hydroxyapatite has shown significant promise. Over the past decade, dentistry researchers have explored hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HAnps) or nano-hydroxyapatite (nano-HA) in relation to oral implantology, bone restoration, and both preventive and restorative dentistry. These nanoparticles have been used not only as additive materials to enhance currently available and frequently used dental materials but also exhibit significant remineralizing effects on initial enamel lesions. While substantial progress has been made in preventive applications, advancements have also occurred in restorative and regenerative fields. This study examines the effectiveness of nano-hydroxyapatite composite resin implants optimized using the Apriori algorithm for the restoration of dental bone defects, particularly in athletes, to assess their impact on fitness and physical health. A comparative analysis was conducted between a handling resin composite (Gandio Blocks, Unbelievable Cros, Enamic) and a 3D printing resin composite (Vareo Smile Crown Plus). The evaluation focused on three parameters: bending strength, partial subsidence, and the overall effectiveness in dental restoration.
