background and objective: the concept of immediate occlusal loading with dental implants offers several advantages. in this research, the effect of type of restoration on osseointegration rate of dental implants was histologically evaluated. materials and methods: three months prior to implantation, the lower premolar teeth of 15 dogs were extracted. then, 3 to 4 maestro™ implants were placed i...

Gradual wear of opposing teeth is a normal phenomenon in human dentition. To ensure a better quality of life through better dental health, there is a need for quality dental restorative materials to repair or replace natural teeth. Several aspects are looked at when designing a proper dental implant. Aesthetics, durability, and integration with the supporting teeth and soft tissues are some key...

The presentation of patients with dental restorations that exhibit minor defects is one of the commonest clinical situations in the practice of general dentistry. The repair of such restorations, rather than replacement, is increasingly considered to be a viable alternative to replacement of the defective restoration. This paper considers factors influencing the repair of direct restorations, i...

The clinical effect of feldspar ceramics and lithium disilicate reinforced glass was studied. 57 affected teeth with complete root canal treatment computer aided design/computer manufacturing (CAD/CAM) endocrown restoration were reviewed 24-36 months aftercompletion the restoration. These dimensions including anatomical morphology, proximal contact , color matching, edge integrity, coloring, se...

introduction: in restorative dentistry, selecting the proper material is an important factor for clinical success. the objective of this study was clinical evaluation of survival time of three tooth color materials in primary anterior teeth. methods: in this interventional clinical trial study, 94 deciduous anterior teeth (36 teeth in boys, 58 teeth in girls) belonging to 3-5 year old children ...

The most common treatment in general dental practice is the replacement of restorations affected by secondary caries or marginal deficiencies. Alternative treatments to replacement of defective restorations, such as marginal sealing, refurbishment and repair, have demonstrated improvement of their clinical properties with minimal intervention. The aim of this clinical study was to estimate the ...

different ossificant materials have been used for induction of bone repair in many studies, and bone matrix gelatin which contains bone morphogenic proteins is one of the best ones. in present study we evaluated the role of this material in acceleration of bone repair in rabbit tibia. a hole of 3.5 mm diameter was made on right tibia of 10 and 12 rabbits as study and control group respectively....

Background: Neutron contamination is produced in electron beams of linac when tooth or dental materials are located in the path of beam. Objective: This study aims to determine the neutron dose contamination from different dental restoration materials in electron mode of a linac. Material and Methods: In this experimental study, the neutron dose contamination was calculated in the p...
