Highlights • The effect of glaze firings on four ceramics for hard machining was investigated. • The same cracks were examined, before and after firing, to verify the healing process….
Graphical abstract Highlights • Stearic acid/tricalcium phosphate suspensions may be 3D printed with a rapid and simple process. • Sintering results in a chemically pure and mechanically strong ceramics. •…
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the reliability of monolithic and multilayer ceramic structures used in the CAD-on technique (Ivoclar), and the mode of failure produced in ceramic structures bonded to a…
Highlights • A BisGMA-derived degradation product affects gene expression of cariogenic bacteria. • Resin composite degradation product affects gene expression of cariogenic bacteria. • A BisGMA-derived biodegradation product affects virulence…
Abstract Objective Many new dental composites containing mesoporous silica fillers have been developed to improve rheological properties and enhance the resin–filler interface. To investigate the correlation between the cytocompatibility of…
Graphical abstract Highlights • Biological response of novel high strength-low elastic modulus β-Ti2448 alloy was evaluated. • The formation of fine apatite-like crystals in simulated body fluid confirmed the superior…
Highlights • There is a considerable variation of the internal occlusal fit of Y-TZP copings made by CAD/CAM technology. • A thicker cement layer can lead to greater risk of…
Abstract Objective An ideal dental adhesive should provide retentive strength, marginal seal, be relatively simple to achieve and demonstrate clinical durability. Future improvements in adhesive bonding to tooth structure require…
Highlights • Controlled randomized prospective clinical split-mouth study on restoration of NCCLs in premolars with flowable composites. • Three-year results of Filtek™ Supreme XTE Flow and N’Durance ® Dimer Flow…
Abstract Objective CAD–CAM blocks to fabricate semi-direct and indirect restorations are available in different sorts of ceramics as well as composite. In order to bond restorations prepared out of composite…
