ESTHETIC REHABILITATION THROUGH CAD/CAM TECHNOLOGY-CASE REPORT (Abstract): With the progress of dental materials and techniques, CAD/CAM system curren tly allows the manufacture of high precision prosthetic restorations. Zirconia is an ideal base for porcelain because the bonding process between the zirconia and the porcelain is stronger than it is with porcelain and metal. This means that the ...

In June 2012, the Piaoshan kiln site was excavated in Huzhou, Zhejiang Province, which hitherto proved to be the earliest known Chinese proto-porcelain kiln. Judging from the decorative patterns of unearthed impressed stoneware and proto-porcelain sherds, the site was determined to date to the late Xia (c. 2070-c. 1600 BC), the first dynasty of China. Here, we report on proton-induced X-ray emi...

In the past few years a comprehensive interdisciplinary study has been undertaken on some excavation fragments of 18 century porcelain from Capodimonte (Naples, Italy). The Capodimonte manufacture has had a very peculiar history; this makes it interesting per se to characterize its products, which can also be of use as a “case study” for a methodological objective. Analyses have been carried ou...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM In some clinical situations, the length of either a prepared tooth or an implant abutment is shorter than ideal, and the thickness of a porcelain crown must be increased. Thickness of the coping and the veneering porcelain should be considered to prevent mechanical failure of the crown. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of veneering porcel...

Porcelain gallbladder is rare manifestation of chronic cholecystitis. calcification of the gallbladder wall is present between 0.06%-0.8% of cholecystectomy specimens. the pathogenesis is still unknown but it is believed that it caused by irritation the gallbladder by stones which lead to chronic inflammation associated with calcium deposit. calcification of the gallbladder wall is associated w...

This work presents the effect of room temperature vulcanized (RTV) silicone rubber coating on cap and pin type porcelain insulator under ac (50Hz) flashover voltage (KV). Describes experimental results obtained for improvement of porcelain insulator removed from 33kV overhead transmission line at Aswan, Egypt after 28 years of service. Also, this study briefly surveys the environmental contamin...
