Abstract Objectives The purposes of this study were to investigate the effects of thermal residual stresses on the reliability and lifetime of zirconia–veneer crowns. Methods One hundred and twenty eight…
Abstract Objectives Currently, most titanium implant coatings are made using hydroxyapatite and a plasma spraying technique. There are however limitations associated with plasma spraying processes including poor adherence, high porosity…
Abstract Objectives (1) To measure the marginal and internal adaptation of different prosthetic crowns infrastructures (IS); (2) to analyze two types of methodologies (replica and weight technique) used to evaluate…
Abstract Objectives This work aims to review the key factors affecting the polymerization efficiency of light-activated resin-based composites. The different properties and methods used to evaluate polymerization efficiency will also…
Abstract Objectives The phenomena occurring during zirconia frameworks veneering process are not yet fully understood. In particular the study of zirconia behavior at the interface with the veneer remains a…
