Abstract Objectives A novel tertiary amine compound containing three methacrylate-urethane groups was synthesized for application in dentin adhesives. The synthesis, photopolymerization kinetics, and leaching were examined in an earlier study…
Abstract Objectives 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) has been shown to cross-link dentin type I collagen. Increased cross-linking usually elevates the glass transition temperature of polymers. The aim of this study…
Highlights • Sintering temperature affects the grain size, transformability and strength of 3Y-TZP. • The high-temperature-sintered, coarse-grained 3Y-TZP experiences a higher surface strengthening than the low-temperature-sintered, fine-grained 3Y-TZP. • Ageing…
Highlights • Monolithic Lava Ultimate crowns tolerate fatigue loads 3–4 times higher than IPS Empress CAD. • Lava Ultimate crowns may offer an esthetic alternative for ceramic posterior crowns. •…
Restoration longevity is an important issue in dentistry and especially for the Dental Materials community. The importance of a dental restoration with a good longevity is obvious for the patients…
