This case report presents the clinical use of a resin nanoceramic CAD/CAM restoration of a primary second molar without successor in the form of a permanent second premolar tooth in a patient. Three-year follow-up of the case revealed that resin nanoceramic CAD/CAM restoration of the primary molar without successor achieved both aesthetics and function. Despite the high cost of treatment, this ...

BACKGROUND The use of resin-modified glass Ionomer cement in sandwich technique is widely practiced with the advent of various newer generation of composites the bond between resin-modified glass Ionomer and these resins should be validated. This study is done to evaluate the interfacial microgaps between different types of liners and dentin, liners and composite (Filtek p60 [FLp60]) using scan...

background. repairing aged composite resin is a challenging process. many surface treatment options have been proposed to this end. this study evaluated the effect of different surface treatments on the shear bond strength (sbs) of nanofilled composite resin repairs. methods. seventy-five cylindrical specimens of a filtek z350xt composite resin were fabricated and stored in 37°c distilled water...

objectives: several studies have assessed the characteristics and properties of silorane-based composites and adhesive systems. considering the extensive application of tooth-whitening agents, possible deteriorative effects of tooth bleaching agents on these restorative materials must be studied. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of an in-office carbamide peroxide-based tooth ble...

AIM Although the demand for aesthetic restoration of primary molars has increased, techniques for producing aesthetic, direct full-crown restorations using light-cured composite resin for primary molars and the associated clinical outcome are not well established. The aim of this study was to describe the use of new techniques to produce aesthetic, direct full-crown restorations using light-cur...

To clarify the mechanical properties of fiber-reinforced hybrid resin bridges, this study evaluated the influence of various bonding agents ((Modeling Liquid (ML), DE Resin (DE), Bell Bond (BE), Mega Bond (MG), Durafil Bond (DU), Fluoro Bond (FB), Mac-Bond (MC), EG Bond (EG), Unifill Bond (UN), Single Bond (SN)) impregnated with fibers on bending strength. FB attained the highest bending streng...

Using modified USPHS criteria, we evaluated annually for ten years 91 cases restored with visible light cured posterior composite resin LFP (Base resin: UDMA; filler: micro crushed type, alumino-silicate, barium glass and silica, 85 wt%, 74 vol%). The 91 cases restored with LFP decreased to 68 in ten years. Of the 23 cases that were lost, one resulted from a pulpal reaction immediately followin...

AIM The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical performance of three different restorative materials in primary teeth according to the FDI criteria. MATERIALS AND METHODS Resin-modified glass ionomer cement, compomer and composite resin restorations (n=93) were made in 31 patients. The restorations were clinically evaluated at baseline, 6th, 12th and 18th month with the FDI criteria...

Introduction: The restoration of endodontically treated teeth is a topic that has been studied extensively but it is still a challenge for dental practitioners. The aim of this study was to evaluate fracture resistance, fracture patterns and fracture location of endodontically treated human maxillary premolars restored with direct and indirect composite resin and ceramic restoration. Methods: E...

PURPOSE To evaluate the fracture strength and the failure mode of endodontically treated teeth restored with composite resin overlays with and without glass-fiber reinforcement. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 32 extracted molars were divided into four equal groups. In the NFR-NFRC (no foundation restoration, no fiber-reinforced composite) and NFR-FRC (no foundation restoration, fiber-reinfo...
