Highlights • We introduce a symmetric four-point bending test for adhesion testing. • Simple gritblasting alone may be the currently optimized procedure that can be done. • EDS is needed…
Abstract Objectives This study examined the effect of a dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) wet bonding technique on the resin infiltration depths at the bonded interface and dentin bond strength of different…
Highlights • We assessed the 18-year survival of posterior resin composite restorations. • We examined the influence of having GIC as base on restoration survival. • Regarding type of failures,…
Abstract Objectives To compare three different designs for measuring the bond strength between Y-TZP ceramic and a composite material, before and after ceramic surface treatment, evaluating the influence of the…
Abstract Objectives To review the histological and clinical outcomes of the use of bone substitues in different oral bone regenerative procedures: socket preservation, immediate implant placement, lateral and vertical bone…
Abstract Objective To assess the 5-year survival of metal-ceramic and all-ceramic tooth-supported fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) and to describe the incidence of biological, technical and esthetic complications. Methods Medline (PubMed),…
Abstract Objective To assess the 5-year survival of metal-ceramic and all-ceramic tooth-supported single crowns (SCs) and to describe the incidence of biological, technical and esthetic complications. Methods Medline (PubMed), Embase,…
Highlights • Cryo-FIB specimen preparation for TEM imaging of resin–dentin interfaces is proposed. • We report step by step FIB sample preparations in details. • Minimizing the milling temperature improve…
Abstract Purpose This study evaluated failure behavior when resin-composite cylinders bonded to dentin fractured under traditional “shear” testing. Failure was assessed by scaling of failure loads to changes in cylinder…
Highlights • An in situ dental biofilm model was used to evaluate the novel glass ionomer cement (GIC) containing dimethylaminododecyl methacrylate (DMADDM). • DMADDM could increase surface charge density but…
Highlights • Hard machining reduced around 27% the leucite glass–ceramic strength. • Glaze firing is able to reduce the leucite glass–ceramic strength. • Glaze firing can change the ceramic microstructure…
Highlights • We examined residual monomer from six bulk fill composite resins. • Residual monomers were eluted from bulk fill composite resins at all time periods. • The amount of…
The authors regret that the reference numbers listed in Table 1 were incorrect. The online version has now been corrected and shows the correct citation information. Corrections have also been…
Highlights • Indirect tensile test is appropriate to assess the influence of artificial aging on resin composite cements. • Dual-cured specimens show less variance of strength values than self-cured specimens….
Highlights • The new adhesive containing 7.5% MPC + 5% DMAHDM had protein adsorption that was nearly 20-fold less than that of commercial SBMP control. • Adding MPC or DMAHDM…
Highlights • Cryo-FIB specimen preparation for TEM imaging of resin–dentin interfaces is proposed. • We report step by step FIB sample preparations in details. • Minimizing the milling temperature improve…
Abstract Purpose This study evaluated failure behavior when resin-composite cylinders bonded to dentin fractured under traditional “shear” testing. Failure was assessed by scaling of failure loads to changes in cylinder…
Highlights • We have separated two fractions of EMD proteins. • One fraction included proteins with M r of 8–55 kDa; another fraction proteins with M r < 8 kDa….
Abstract Objective To investigate the relationship between the structures of polyphenolic compounds found in grape seed extract (GSE) and their activity in cross-linking dentin collagen in clinically relevant settings. Methods…
Abstract Objective The goal of this investigation was to assess validity of predictive models of stress relaxation in dental polymers when applied to extended master curves generated from short time…
