Abstract Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate the durability of extensive dentin–enamel-bonded posterior ceramic coverages in a 15 years follow-up. Methods All extensive dentin–enamel-bonded posterior partial and…
Abstract Objectives The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of intaglio surface air-abrasion on the retention of CAD/CAM produced zirconia ceramic crowns cemented with three…
Abstract Objectives Cementation of all-ceramic restorations with resin-cements has been demonstrated to reduce the incidence of fracture in service. The aim was to investigate the influence of loading force and…
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the influence of post surface pretreatment on the delamination strength of different cements from a prefabricated FRC post tested in a three-point bending test. Methods Three…
Abstract Objectives This study evaluated the effect of composite pre-polymerization temperature and energy density on the marginal adaptation (MA), degree of conversion (DC), flexural strength (FS), and polymer cross-linking (PCL)…
Abstract Objective The effect of a novel light curing process, namely soft light energy release ( SLER ® ), on shrinkage, mechanical strength and residual stress of four dental restorative…
Abstract Objectives Our aim was to improve the comprehension of in vitro tracer leakage studies and to determine in which conditions such studies can be reliable. We aimed to develop…
Abstract Objectives The polyacrylonitrile (PAN)–poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) core–shell nanofiber reinforced dental composites have been investigated for their excellent interface adhesive, and this kind of novel dental composite has the potential…
Abstract Objectives This study evaluated the effect of surface treatments on the bond strength of fluorcanasite and lithium disilicate glass-ceramics, with the possibility of eliminating HF etching of these ceramics….
Abstract Objectives This study evaluated the initial and the artificially aged push-out bond strength between ceramic and dentin produced by one of five resin cements. Methods Two-hundred direct ceramic restorations…
