Abstract Objectives Relating to low-dose Bisphenol-A (BPA), there is still a lack of mechanistic studies in oral cells, representing the first targets of BPA by oral intake. The objective of…
Abstract Objective Secondary caries is a primary reason for dental restoration failures. The objective of this study was to investigate the remineralization of human dentin lesions in vitro via restorations…
Highlights • Monolithic zirconia crowns withstand high loading forces. • Severity of crown margin defects is correlated with decreasing of load at fracture. • Production method affects the quality of…
Abstract Objectives To quantify the adhesion of two bonding approaches of zirconia to more aesthetic glass-ceramic materials using the Schwickerath (ISO 9693-2:2016) three point bend (3PB) [1] test to determine…
Highlights • Laser-sintering of thin glass-ceramic films on enamel was successfully achieved. • Bonding between enamel and the glass-ceramic coating was proved. • Method holds great potential to protect susceptible…
Abstract Objective The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of low-pressure argon/oxygen plasma with and without previous sandblasting on the shear bond strength (SBS) between dental PEEK…
Abstract Objectives To assess the impact of irradiation on Martens hardness parameters of different PEEK qualities filled with titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ), namely PEEK/0%, PEEK/20%, and PEEK/>30%. Methods For…
Graphical abstract Highlights • C(T) shows be a reliable indicator of the zirconia/cement bond quality. • R a , R sk and area variation were evaluated by AFM. • Weibull…
In 2014 the Board of the Academy of Dental Materials recognized there was an increasing need to provide written mentorship to young faculty and graduate students doing materials research –…
Graphical abstract Highlights • PMMA incorporating silver-loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles (Ag-MSNs) led to increased mechanical properties. • PMMA incorporating Ag-MSNs exhibited an anti-adhesive effect against infectious strains without cytotoxicity. •…
