To evaluate 1) the internal adaptation of a light-activated incremental-fill and bulk-fill resin-based composite (RBC) materials by measuring gap between restorative material tooth structure 2) aging effect on adaptation.Seventy teeth with class I cavity preparations were randomly distributed into five groups; four groups restored RBCs: Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill (TEC), SonicFill (SF), QuiXX Posterior Restorative (QX), X-tra fil (XF); fifth group was Filtek Supreme Ultra Universal (FSU)....
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence full‐contour (Y‐TZP) zirconia surface roughness (glazed vs. as‐machined) on wear behavior glass‐ceramics. Materials and Methods Thirty‐two full contour Y‐TZP (Diazir®) specimens (hereafter referred as sliders) (ϕ = 2 mm, 1.5 mm in height) were fabricated using CAD/CAM sintered according manufacturer's instructions. Zirconia sliders embedded brass holders acrylic resin then randomly assigned (n 16) treatment received,...
The present study investigated the effect of three high-viscosity bulk-fill resin-based composite materials on cuspal deflection in natural teeth. Thirty-two sound maxillary premolar teeth with large slot mesio-occlusal-distal cavities were distributed into four groups (n=8). Three restored resin (Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill, Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein; x-tra fil, VOCO, Cuxhaven, Germany; and SonicFill, Kerr, Orange, CA, USA) a single 4-mm increment. conventional group, Filtek...
We compared a zinc-reinforced glass ionomer restorative material (ChemFil Rock) with three commercially available cements (GICs), namely, Fuji IX GP Extra, Ketac Molar Quick Aplicap, and EQUIA Fil, respect to fracture toughness, microhardness, roughness, abrasive wear. Fracture toughness (KIC) was tested according ISO 13586 (n = 10). Hardness, wear were also 9). Data analyzed using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test adjustment for multiple comparisons (α 0.05). As other GICs ChemFil Rock exhibited...
To compare the clinical performance of a universal adhesive in class V non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) using two surface treatment protocols (self-etch [SfE] vs selective-enamel-etch [SelE]).Thirty-three adults, each with ≥2 NCCLs, received one resin composite restoration utilizing SfE and another SelE 37% phosphoric acid. Restorations were evaluated for sensitivity, retention, marginal discoloration, adaptation, acceptability through 24 months Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel tests stratified,...
Large clefts in the lip and palate are common congenital anomalies. If cleft is large enough, conventional feeding techniques may not provide proper nutrition for infant. Feeding obturators will aid ability of infant to attain suction help feed adequately. It necessary have sustained weight gain prior surgery correct and/or palate. Fabrication an obturator a simple technique using materials found every dental office. An impression made modeling plastic compound. This relined irreversible...
This laboratory study evaluated the longitudinal surface microhardness changes in early, incipient, noncavitated, white-spot, enamel caries lesions treated with silver diamine fluoride (SDF). Five intervention groups (SDF, AgNO3, KF, 5% sodium varnish (FV), deionized water (DI)) × two-time intervals after (immediate & delayed pH-cycling) resulted 10 (n=18). Silver nitrate (AgNO3) and potassium (KF) served as controls to assist evaluating if remineralization effects were due or component SDF....
This study investigated the effect of nonrinse conditioners (ie, Ketac Nano Primer [KNP] and GC Self Conditioner [SC]) used as substrate pretreatment their respective paste-paste resin-modified glass-ionomer cement (RMGIC) [KN] Fuji Filling LC [FF]) on microtensile bond strength to dentin marginal sealing when compared with traditional RMGIC Photac Fil [PF] II [FII]) in association polyacrylic acid Cavity [KC] [CC]). A total 192 extracted human molars were allocated into eight groups:...
The purpose of this study was to explore the effects nicotine on activity Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) in soft drinks. Regular drinks contain large proportions high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS), which increases S. resulting high-caries risk compared with sugar-free Nicotine use exhibits a strong correlation increased biofilm formation. chosen were (Coca-Cola Classic, Diet Coke, Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, Caffeine-Free Coca-Cola, Sugar). grown overnight tryptic soy broth; diluted broth...
The objective of this study was to determine the survival time crown margin repairs (CMRs) with glass ionomer and resin-modified cements on permanent teeth using electronic dental record (EDR) data.We queried a database EDR (axiUm; Exan Group, Coquitlam, BC, Canada) in Indiana University School Dentistry (IUSD), Indianapolis, IN, USA, for records patients who underwent CMRs at Graduate Operative Clinic. Two examiners developed guidelines reviewing manually reviewed clinical notes patient...
