RESUMO
PURPOSE: The purpose of this in vitro study was to assess the color match of ultra-translucency multilayer zirconia restorations with different designs and backgrounds. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty ultra-translucency multilayer zirconia crown specimens were made in VITA classical shade B2 for a prepared maxillary central incisor. The specimens were divided into three groups based on the restoration design: veneered zirconia with a trestle design (VZT), veneered zirconia with a dentin core design (VZD), and full-contour zirconia (FCZ). In the groups VZT and VZD, the zirconia specimens were layered with a feldspathic veneering ceramic. The specimens were seated on five different backgrounds: shade B2 composite resin, shade B2 zirconia, copper-colored metal alloy, silver-colored metal alloy, and the prepared central incisor. CIELab values of the labial middle sections of the crown specimens were measured with a spectrophotometer. Color differences between the specimens and a shade B2 VITA classical tab (as a control) were calculated from the ΔE* ab formula and compared with an acceptability threshold (ΔE* ab = 3.7) to be clinically explicated. RESULTS: Mean ΔE* ab values ranged between 1.17 and 8.48. The restoration design, the background type, and their interaction affected the ΔE* ab (p < 0.001). The mean ΔE* ab values for VZT with all backgrounds and for VZD with the silver-colored metal background were greater than the threshold (p < 0.001), whereas the mean ΔE* ab values for VZD with the other backgrounds and FCZ with all backgrounds were less than the threshold (p = 1). CONCLUSIONS: Restoration design and background type affected the color match of ultra-translucency multilayer zirconia restorations. VZT restorations on all backgrounds and VZD restorations on a silver-colored metal background showed color mismatches. However, VZD restorations on the other backgrounds and FCZ restorations on all backgrounds demonstrated color matches.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Zirconia can be used either monolithically or veneered with porcelain. However, whether veneering zirconia affects marginal fit is unclear. PURPOSE: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the marginal fit of the monolithic and layered zirconia prostheses using 2 different assessment methods. MATERIAL AND METHODS: An ideal complete crown with a chamfer finish line was prepared on an extracted maxillary central incisor. Two prosthesis designs, a framework and a monolithic design, and 2 marginal fit evaluation methods, the silicone replica and the triple scanning techniques, were used. In the first group, 10 crowns were fabricated with the framework design followed by porcelain veneering, and 10 crowns were fabricated monolithically in the second group. The marginal gap in each group was evaluated with both the silicone replica and triple scan methods. Data were statistically analyzed with a 2-way repeated measures ANOVA (α=.05). RESULTS: A significant difference was found in the mean marginal gap by design type (P=.003), with the monolithic prostheses having lower mean marginal gaps (31.0 and 84.0 µm). However, both groups showed clinically acceptable marginal fit. No significant difference was found between the assessment methods (P=.092). CONCLUSIONS: Monolithic zirconia crowns had a better marginal fit than veneered zirconia frameworks. Both the replica and triple scan techniques for marginal gap assessment yielded similar results.

Objectives: This study assessed the fracture resistance of zirconia crowns with four framework designs, fabricated by computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, a maxillary central incisor was prepared and scanned with a CAD/CAM scanner, and 40 frameworks with 4 designs (N=10) were fabricated as follows: simple core, dentine core with a design similar to dentine, 3mm trestle design collar in the lingual aspect with proximal buttresses, and monolithic or full-contour. After porcelain applying and 20h immersion in distilled water (37°C), crowns were cemented on metal dies using zinc phosphate cement. Fracture resistance was measured by a universal testing machine. Data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA (alpha=0.05). Results: Fracture resistance was maximum in the monolithic group, followed by the dentine core, trestle design, and simple core groups, respectively. The mean fracture resistance of the monolithic group was significantly higher than that of the simple core group (P<0.005). Conclusion: Zirconia restorations with frameworks that provided higher and more support for porcelain, showed increased fracture resistance.
RESUMO
Statement of the Problem: By development of adhesive dentistry and noble mechanical strength of ceramics, reconstruction of posterior teeth with partial coverage restorations such as ceramic endocrowns is possible. Different ceramics may show different mechanical properties which should be investigated. Purpose: The aim of this experimental in vitro study was to compare the tensile bond strength of endocrowns made by CAD-CAM using 3 types of ceramics. Materials and Method: In this in vitro study, 30 fresh extracted human molars were prepared to evaluate the tensile bond strength of endocrowns made by IPS e.max CAD, Vita Suprinity, and Vita Enamic blocks (n=10). The specimens were mounted and endodontically treated. Standard preparations were done with 4.5±0.5 mm intracoronal extensions into the pulp chamber and the restorations were designed and milled by CAD-CAM technique. All specimens were cemented with a dual polymerizing resin cement according to the manufacturer's instructions. The specimens were incubated for 24 hours and then thermocycled for 5000 cycles at 5-55°C and underwent the tensile strength test by universal testing machine (UTM). Shapiro-Wilk and one-way ANOVA test were used to statistically analyzed (α= 0.05). Results: The highest tensile bond strength values were achieved in IPS e.max CAD (216.39 ±22.67N) and Vita Enamic (216.22±17.72N) followed by Vita Suprinity (211.54±20.01N). There was no significant statistical difference between retention of endocrowns made by CAD-CAM technique among ceramic blocks (p= 0.832). Conclusion: Within the limitation of this study, there was no significant difference between retention of endocrowns made by IPS e.max CAD, Vita Enamic, and Vita Suprinity as ceramic blocks.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The complex wound healing process involves activating and synchronizing intracellular, intercellular, and extracellular components. Adipose tissue is attracting attention to promote wound healing. Within subcutaneous adipose tissue, stromal vascular cells and their subsets release growth factors and cytokines critical for neovascularization and wound repair. OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated human placental collagen/adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) hydrogel for wound healing in rats. METHODS: In this study, ADSCs were harvested, cultured, and mixed with placental collagen. Twelve rats were used, and their backs were excised three times each. Group one received collagen/ADSCs, group two collagen, and group three non-filled (control) excisions. The healing processes were assessed by histological analysis, taking photographs, and calculating the percentage of wound contraction in mentioned times. RESULTS: Histopathological analysis revealed that the content of fibroblasts, follicles of the hair, and angiogenesis in group one was significantly more than in other groups. Group one had a significant result compared with the collagen and control groups. In group one, significant wound healing and wound contraction were observed with 52% and 80% wound contraction at 7 and 14 days, respectively. CONCLUSION: Collagen/ADSCs can be considered a suitable candidate hydrogel in wound healing with a high potential for enhancing wound repairing.

The dental implant is one of the appropriate instances of the different dental materials and their application, which is the combined procedure of technology and science in physics, biomechanics, and surface chemistry from macroscale to nanoscale surface engineering and manufactured technologies. In recent decades, biomaterials in implant therapy promote bone response and biomechanical ability, which is long-term from surgical equipment to final prosthetic restoration. Biomaterials have a crucial role in rehabilitating the damaged structure of the tooth and supplying acceptable outcomes correlated with clinical performance. There are some challenges in implantation such as bleeding, mobility, peri-implant infections, and the solution associated with modern strategies which are regarded to biomaterials. Various materials have been known as promising candidates for coatings of dental implants which contain polyhydroxyalkanoates, calcium phosphate, carbon, bisphosphonates, hydroxyapatite, bone stimulating factors, bioactive glass, bioactive ceramics, collagen, chitosan, metal and their alloys, fluoride, and titanium/titanium nitride. It is pivotal that biomaterials should be biodegradable; for example, polyhydroxyalkanoates are biodegradable; also, they do not have bad effects on tissues and cells. Despite this, biomaterials have important roles in prosthetic conditions such as dental pulp regeneration, the healing process, and antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. In this review study, the role of biocompatible materials in dental implants is investigated in in vitro and in vivo studies.
RESUMO
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM: Different materials can be used to reconstruct the core foundation in all-ceramic restorations. Bond strength of the core material to zirconia is an important factor in long-term restoration success. PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to assess shear bond strength (SBS) of zirconia to four different core materials. MATERIALS AND METHOD: In this experimental in vitro study, 40 zirconia ceramic disks (10×3 mm) were prepared and divided to four groups based on core material. Cylinder shaped core specimens (3×4 mm) of non-precious gold alloy (NPG), zirconia ceramic, natural dentin, and composite resin were prepared and bonded perpendicularly to the zirconia disks using Gillmore Needle Apparatus and dual cure resin cement. All samples were thermocycled for 2000 cycles. To evaluate SBS, the specimens were tested by universal testing machine. Data were analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn's test with Bonferroni correction. Statistical significance was set at p< 0.05. RESULTS: The highest values for SBS were achieved in composite resin group (11.58±1.74 MPa) followed by NPG (10.32±0.94 MPa), zirconia (7.3±1.11 MPa) and dentin group (6.53±0.56 MPa). SBS in composite resin and NPG core materials were significantly higher than other core materials (p< 0.05). CONCLUSION: Composite resin and NPG cores showed significant higher bond strength to zirconia in comparison to dentine and zirconia core materials.
RESUMO
Introduction: This study investigated the effect of various laser powers on the shear bond strength (SBS) of resin cement to the zirconia surface. Methods: Seventy-five zirconia disks were prepared and assigned to five groups including no surface treatment (control group), sandblasting with 50 µ Al2 O3 particles (second group), and Nd:YAG laser treatments with 2 W, 2.5 W and 3 W powers respectively (third, fourth and fifth groups). Afterwards, composite resin cylinders were cemented on zirconia disks using dual-curing resin cement. Before thermocycling (2000 cycles, 5-55°C), all samples were placed in distilled water at 37°C for 24 hours. Using a universal testing machine at the crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min, the SBS was examined. Also, using a stereomicroscope, the failure type was determined. Data analyses were performed using Welch and Games-Howell tests (P < 0.05). Results: The mean bond strength difference between the control group and the other groups was significant. The respective bond strength from the highest to the lowest was observed in the sandblast group, the laser group with 2.5 W power, the laser group with 3 W power, the laser group with 2 W power, and finally the control group. However, no significant difference was observed between different laser groups (P < 0.05). Also, there was no significant difference between the sandblast and laser groups with 2.5 W and 3 W power (P < 0.05). Most of the failures in the sandblasting and laser groups with powers of 2.5 W and 3 W were mixed, but in the control and 2 W laser groups, most of the failures were of adhesive nature. Conclusion: The highest bond strength was achieved by sandblasting with Al2 O3 particles and then using an Nd: YAG laser with a power of 2.5 W.
RESUMO
Background. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different pouring times and spacer thicknesses on the three-dimensional accuracy of casts made of 3D-printed custom trays. Methods. A partial edentulous maxillary model was scanned for fabricating custom acrylic trays. Twenty custom trays were created using a CAD/CAM system and divided into two groups in terms of their spacer thicknesses (2 mm and 4 mm). All the trays were designed with 2-mm thickness, multiple retentive holes measuring 2 mm in diameter, and three interior seating stops (two on the edentulous ridge and one on the incisal edge of the central incisors). Impressions were made using monophasic polyvinyl siloxane and poured in two different times (one hour and 24 hours after removal) with type IV dental stone. All the casts were scanned to measure three distances (inter-buccal cusps, inter-palatal cusps, and inter-fossa distances) between the two first premolars. The data were analyzed with two-way ANOVA and Bonferroni test at a significance level of 0.05. Results. There was no significant difference between the 3D accuracy of casts made using two different spacer thicknesses poured at 1-hour and 24-hour intervals. However, there was a difference between casts made after 1 hour and 24 hours when using custom trays with 2 mm of spacer thickness in terms of inter-buccal distance. Conclusion. There was no significant difference between the accuracy of casts made using custom trays with either 2 or 4 mm of spacer thickness, which were poured 1 hour or 24 hours after tray removal.
RESUMO
Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the effect of different surface treatments on the bond strength of resin cement to nickel-chrome (Ni-Cr) alloy. Methods: Forty disk-shaped specimens of Ni-Cr alloy were prepared and divided into 4 groups. In the first group, the specimens' surface was sandblasted with 50 µ Al2 O3 particles. In the second group, the specimens were prepared with the Er:YAG laser. In the third group, the specimens were prepared using the Er:YAG laser after sandblasting. In the fourth group, the specimens' surface was covered with a thin layer of MKZ metal primer after sandblasting. Then the cylinders of composite resin were bonded to the treated metal surfaces using Panavia F2.0 resin cement. All of the samples were subjected to 2000 thermal cycles. The shear bond strength was tested using a universal testing machine at the crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. The failure mode was also observed by a stereomicroscope. Data were analyzed using the one-way ANOVA and the Tukey HSD test at a significance level of 0.05. Results: The shear bond strength from the highest to the lowest were as follows: the Er:YAG laser group, the sandblast and MKZ primer combination group, the sandblast group, and the sandblast and Er:YAG laser combination group. The mean differences of shear bond strength between the Er:YAG laser group and the sandblast group (P=0.047) and also between the Er:YAG laser group and the sandblast and Er:YAG laser combination group (P=0.015) were statistically significant. Conclusion: Among the different surface treatments employed in this study, Er:YAG laser treatment increased the shear bond strength between the metal alloy and the resin cement (Pavnavia F2).
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to assess the effect of cement type and cementation technique on the retention of cement-retained implant-supported restorations. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In this in vitro study, 20 solid abutments were screwed onto the fixture analogs and were mounted in acrylic resin molds using a surveyor. Twenty computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) metal crowns with an occlusal loop were fabricated, divided into two groups (n = 10), and bonded with temporary dental cement (Temp-Bond™; group 1) or glass ionomer (GC; group 2). Each group was subcategorized based on its cementation method (half-filling or abutment replica technique). The cement was applied to the copings that were placed vertically on the abutment with applying a 5-kg load for 10 min. The samples were then incubated at 37°C for 24 h and subjected to 3000 thermal cycles. The samples underwent axial tensile load within a universal testing machine. Data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA. RESULTS: GC cement yielded significantly higher retention than Temp-Bond™ (P < 0.05). In the GC group, the half-filling subgroup showed significantly higher retention than the abutment replica subgroup (P < 0.05). The mean retention value in the Temp-Bond™ group revealed no significant difference between the two subgroups (P > 0.05). GC yielded higher retention than Temp-Bond™ while using the half-filling cementation technique (P = 0.00). However, this difference was not significant between GC and Temp-Bond™ with the abutment replica technique (P = 0.960). CONCLUSION: Within the limitations of this study, the results showed that permanent cementation with half-filling technique yielded significantly higher retention in implant restorations.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare the coronal bone level and patient satisfaction in 1-implant and 2-implant assisted mandibular overdentures. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty patients who had maladaptive mandibular dentures were treated in this study. Patients were randomly divided into two groups. The first group received 1 implant (Simple line II, Implantium, South Korea) in their mandibular midline and the second group received 2 implants in their B and D regions (according to Misch's category). If the primary stability of each implant was at least 60 ISQ, ball attachment was placed and denture relined with soft liner. After 6 weeks, retentive cap incorporated with hard acrylic resin. In the 6 and 12 months recalls, periapical digital radiograph were made and visual analogue scale questionnaires were used to record patient satisfaction. The Friedman test was done for comparing the presurgical and postsurgical parameters in each group and the U-Mann Whitney test (P<.05) was done for comparison of post-treatment results between the two groups. RESULTS: All implants achieved sufficient primary stability to be immediately loaded. Patient satisfaction was high, and there were no significant differences between two groups (P>.05). In addition, mean marginal bone loss was 0.6 ± 0.67 mm in the first group and 0.6 ± 0.51 mm in the second group, after 12 month. Mean marginal bone loss showed no significant differences between two groups. CONCLUSION: This preliminary one-year result indicated that mandibular overdentures anchored to a single implant can be a safe and cost-effective method as a starting step for implant-overdenture treatment.
