Abstract Objective To determine if the results of resin–dentin microtensile bond strength (μTBS) is correlated with the outcome parameters of clinical studies on non-retentive Class V restorations. Methods Resin–dentin μTBS…
Abstract Objective To evaluate in vitro the pre-cementation resistance of CAD/CAM inlays subjected to functional occlusal tapping. Methods An extracted tooth model (molar and premolar) with simulated bone and periodontal…
Abstract Objectives To describe the influence of pulse shaping on the behavior of a palladium-based dental alloy during laser welding and to show how its choice is effective to promote…
Abstract Objectives The purpose of this practice-based randomized controlled trial was to evaluate the effectiveness of a new one-step self-etch adhesive to restore non-carious cervical lesions following CONSORT guidelines and…
Abstract Objectives Soft denture lining materials show varied and changeable stress relaxation property and softness under cyclic loading conditions. The purpose of this study was to determine the changes in…
Abstract Objectives The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fracture load of single zirconia abutment restorations using different veneering techniques and materials. Materials and methods The abutment restorations…
Abstract Objectives The aim of this investigation was to determine the effect of storage in disinfectants and artificial saliva on a series of commercial soft lining materials for dentures. Changes…
Abstract Objective To evaluate the effect of five experimental silane monomer primers in vitro on the shear bond strength of a phosphate ester resin-composite cement bonded to a silicatized zirconia…
Abstract Objectives To study hygroscopic dimensional changes in new resin-matrix composites during water sorption/desorption cycles. Methods Five materials were examined: a self-adhering flowable composite: Vertise ® Flow (VF), a universal…
Abstract Objectives The objective of this study was to evaluate composite methacrylate–thiol–ene formulations with varying thiol:ene stoichiometry relative to composite dimethacrylate control formulations. It was hypothesized that the methacrylate–thiol–ene systems…
