Abstract Objectives To evaluate and compare bond strengths of different primers and resin cements to silica-based and zirconia ceramics. Methods Silica-based and zirconia ceramic specimens were ground flat with #600-grit…
Abstract Objective The purpose of this study is to develop a quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) model that can distinguish mutagenic from non-mutagenic species with <SPAN role=presentation tabIndex=0 id=MathJax-Element-3-Frame class=MathJax style="POSITION:…
Abstract Objectives The purpose of this study was to assess the surface roughness and morphology of three nanocomposites polished with two different polishing systems. Methods Specimens made of hybrid composite…
Abstract Objectives The development of different types of materials with application in dentistry is an area of intense growth and research, due to its importance in oral health. Among the…
The authors regret that on page e14 of this article the Washburn equation appeared incorrectly. The factor ‘rt’ in the Washburn equation should be in the numerator and not in…
Abstract Objective In this study three novel dimethacrylates of different chain lengths having bulky bicycloaliphatic rings were synthesized and proposed as possible dental monomers for dental resin mixtures. Methods The…
Abstract Objectives Resin-modified glass ionomers (RMGI) have demonstrated clinical success providing immediate and long-term relief from root sensitivity. RMGIs have been recently introduced as paste-liquid systems for convenience of clinical…
Abstract Objectives The purpose of the present investigation was to trace the fate of bisphenol A injected into pregnant mice, focusing on its potential accumulation in the fetus and the…
Abstract Objectives The aims of this investigation were to investigate dual-cured luting-agents as to whether their bond strength, dimensional change and flexural modulus influence no interfacial-gap incidence parameters of composite…
Abstract Objectives Determination of material and fractographic properties of a dental indirect resin composite material. Methods A resin composite (Paradigm, 3M-ESPE, MN) was characterized by strength, static elastic modulus, Knoop…
