RESUMO
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to compare the in vitro shear bond strength (SBS) of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and dual-cured, resin-modified calcium silicate material (Theracal PT) to composite resin, compomer, and bulk-fill composite, and to evaluate the bond failure mode under a stereomicroscope. METHODS: Ninety acrylic specimens, each with a 4 mm diameter and 2 mm height central hole, were prepared. These specimens were randomly divided into two groups based on the capping materials: MTA and Theracal PT. Each group was further subdivided into three subgroups (n = 15) according to the restorative materials: composite resin, compomer, and bulk-fill composite. The specimens were then subjected to shear testing using a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. Post-test, the fracture locations were examined using a stereomicroscope. Data were analyzed using a two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the Tukey test. RESULTS: The SBS values for the Theracal PT group were significantly higher than those for the MTA group (p < 0.001). Within the MTA groups, no significant differences were observed in SBS values across the different restorative materials. However, a significant difference was found between the mean SBS values of the Theracal PT + composite resin group and the Theracal PT + compomer group (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Theracal PT shows promise in dentistry due to its superior bond strength. Given its bond values, Theracal PT appears capable of forming durable and long-lasting restorations by establishing reliable bonds with various restorative materials commonly used in dentistry.

OBJECTIVES: Oral diseases, such as dental caries, periodontitis, and oral cancers, are highly prevalent worldwide. Many oral diseases are typically associated with bacterial infections or the proliferation of malignant cells, and they are usually located superficially. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Articles were retrieved from PubMed/Medline, Web of Science. All studies focusing on stimuli-responsive materials in oral diseases were included and carefully evaluated. RESULTS: Stimulus-responsive materials are innovative materials that selectively undergo structural changes and trigger drug release based on shifts at the molecular level, such as changes in pH, electric field, magnetic field, or light in the surrounding environment. These changes lead to alterations in the properties of the materials at the macro- or microscopic level. Consequently, stimuli-responsive materials are particularly suitable for treating superficial site diseases and have found extensive applications in antibacterial and anticancer therapies. These characteristics make them convenient and effective for addressing oral diseases. CONCLUSIONS: This review aimed to summarize the classification, mechanism of action, and application of stimuli-responsive materials in the treatment of oral diseases, point out the existing limitations, and speculate the prospects for clinical applications. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Our findings may provide useful information of stimuli-responsive materials in oral diseases for dental clinicians.

BACKGROUND: Effects of the aging process on the flexural strength of Y-TZP and different Y-PSZ ceramics of different thicknesses were investigated. METHODS: 300 disc-shaped samples (12 mm diameter, 0.8 and 1.5 mm thicknesses) were made from 5 different zirconia materials 3Y-TZP LA, 4Y-PSZ, 5Y-PSZ, 3 + 5Y-PSZ and 4 + 5Y-PSZ. Experimental groups were artificially aged in an autoclave at 134 °C, 2 bar pressure for 1 and 5 h; control groups were not subjected to any treatment. Microstructural analysis was conducted using Scanning Electron Microscopy, and X-Ray Diffraction analysis determined the crystalline phase content. The impact of aging on flexural strength was investigated with the use of the biaxial flexural strength test. Data were analyzed using three-way ANOVA tests with a significance level of p < 0.05, applying Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons. RESULTS: Statistically significant differences in flexural strength were observed among the materials and the material thicknesses (p < 0.05), while there were no significant differences among the aging times (p > 0.05). The highest mean flexural strength values were recorded in the case of the 3 Y-TZP-1.5 mm-5 h group (744.1 ± 61.2 MPa), which was attributed to phase-transformation toughening. The lowest values were observed in the case of the 5 Y-PSZ-1.5 mm-5 h (338.3 ± 34.8 MPa) group. CONCLUSIONS: Both material type and thickness significantly affect the flexural strength of zirconia ceramics, whereas aging time does not; thus, material selection and thickness are crucial considerations for clinicians.

Dental materials are challenged by wear processes in the oral environment and should be evaluated in laboratory tests prior to clinical use. Many laboratory wear-testing devices are high-cost investments and not available for cross-centre comparisons. The 'Rub&Roll' wear machine enables controlled application of force, chemical and mechanical loading, but the initial design was not able to test against rigid antagonist materials. The current study aimed to probe the sensitivity of a new 'Rub&Roll' set-up by evaluating the effect of force and test solution parameters (deionized water; water + abrasive medium; acid + abrasive medium) on the wear behaviour of direct and indirect dental resin-based composites (RBCs) compared with human molars against 3D-printed rod antagonists. Molars exhibited greater height loss than RBCs in all test groups, with the largest differences recorded with acidic solutions. Direct RBCs showed significantly greater wear than indirect RBCs in the groups containing abrasive media. The acidic + abrasive medium did not result in increased wear of RBC materials. The developed method using the 'Rub&Roll' wear machine in the current investigation has provided a sensitive wear test method to allow initial screening of resin-based composite materials compared with extracted human molars under the influence of different mechanical and erosive challenges.

Because of its superior strength, esthetic properties, and excellent biocompatibility, zirconia is preferred for dental prosthetic such as crowns and bridges. However, zirconia crowns and bridges are susceptible to secondary caries owing to margin leakage. Silver is a well-known antibacterial agent, making it a desirable additive to zirconia crowns and bridges for secondary caries prevention. This study focuses on imparting zirconia composite with antibacterial properties to enhance its protective capacity in dental restorations. We used the sol-gel method to dope Ag into zirconia. Silver-doped zirconia powders were prepared at Zr:Ag molar ratios of 100:0,100:0.1, 100:0.5, 100:1, 100:3, and 100:5 (respective samples denoted as Ag-0, Ag-0.1, Ag-0.5, Ag-1, Ag-3, and Ag-5) and were subjected to firing at various temperatures (400 °C-1000 °C). We performed x-ray diffraction to investigate the crystal phase of these powders and x-ray fluorescence and field emission scanning electron microscopy to analyze their elemental composition and surface morphology, respectively. Moreover, we performed spectrophotometry to determine theL*a*b* color values, conducted dissolution tests, and quantified the Ag content through inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy. In addition, we studied the antibacterial activity of the samples. Analyses of the samples fired at ⩽600 °C revealed a predominantly white to grayish-white coloration and a tetragonal crystal phase. Firing at ⩾700 °C resulted in gray or dark gray coloration and a monoclinic crystal phase. The Ag content decreased after firing at 900 °C or 1000 °C. Ag-0.5 and above exhibited antibacterial activity against bothEscherichia coliandStaphylococcus aureus. Therefore, the minimum effective silver-doped zirconia sample was found to be Ag-0.5. This study allows the exploration of the antimicrobial potential of silver-doped zirconia materials in dental applications such as prosthdontical lining materials, promoting the development of innovative restorations with protective capacity against secondary caries.

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the flexural strength of digitally milled and printed denture base materials. METHODS: The materials tested were Lucitone 199 denture base disc (Dentsply Sirona), AvaDent denture base puck (AvaDent), KeyMill denture base disc (Keystone), Lucitone digital print denture base resin (Dentsply Sirona), Formlab denture base resin (Formlabs), and Dentca base resin II (Dentca). Sixty bar-shaped specimens of each material were prepared for flexural strength testing and were divided into five groups: control, thermocycled, fatigue cycled, and repair using two different materials. The flexural strength and modulus were tested using a 3-point bend test performed on an Instron Universal Testing Machine with a 1kN load cell. The specimens were centered under a loading apparatus with a perpendicular alignment. The loading rate was a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. Each specimen was loaded with a force until failure occurred. A one-way ANOVA test was used to analyze the data, followed by Tukey's HSD test (α = 0.05). RESULTS: The milled materials exhibited higher flexural strength than the printed materials. Thermocycling and fatigue reduce the flexural strengths of printed and milled materials. The repaired groups exhibited flexural strengths of 32.80% and 30.67% of the original flexural strengths of printed and milled materials, respectively. Nevertheless, the type of repair material affected the flexural strength of the printed materials; the composite resin exhibited higher flexural strength values than the acrylic resin. CONCLUSIONS: The milled denture base materials showed higher flexural strength than the printed ones.

BACKGROUND: Restorative treatment options for edentulous patients range from traditional dentures to fixed restorations. The proper selection of materials greatly influences the longevity and stability of fixed restorations. Most prosthetic parts are frequently fabricated from titanium. Ceramics (e.g. zirconia) and polymers (e.g. PEEK and BIOHPP) have recently been included in these fabrications. The mandibular movement produces complex patterns of stress and strain. Mandibular fractures may result from these stresses and strains exceeding the critical limits because of the impact force from falls or accidents. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the biomechanical behavior of the edentulous mandible with different restorations under different loading situations. OBJECTIVE: This study analyzes the biomechanical behavior of mandibles after four prosthetic restorations for rehabilitation under normal and impact loading scenarios. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The mandibular model was constructed with a fixed restoration, which was simulated using various materials (e.g. Titanium, Zirconia & BIOHPP), under frontal bite force, maximum intercuspation, and chin impact force. From the extraction of tensile and compressive stresses and strains, as well as the total deformation of mandible segments, the biomechanical behavior and clinical situations were studied. RESULTS: Under frontal bite, the anterior body exhibited the highest tensile (60.34 MPa) and compressive (108.81 MPa) stresses using restoration 4, while the condyles and angles had the lowest tensile (7.12 MPa) and compressive (12.67 MPa) stresses using restoration 3. Under maximum intercuspation, the highest tensile (40.02 MPa) and compressive (98.87 MPa) stresses were generated on the anterior body of the cortical bone using restoration 4. Additionally, the lowest tensile (7.7 MPa) and compressive (10.08 MPa) stresses were generated on the condyles and angles, respectively, using restoration 3. Under chin impact, the highest tensile (374.57 MPa) and compressive (387.3 MPa) stresses were generated on the anterior body using restoration 4. Additionally, the lowest tensile (0.65 MPa) and compressive (0.57 MPa) stresses were generated on the coronoid processes using restoration 3. For all loading scenarios, the anterior body of the mandible had the highest stress and strain values compared with the other segments. Compared to the traditional titanium restoration.2, restoration.1(zirconia) increases the tensile and compressive stresses and strains on the mandibular segments, in contrast to restoration.3 (BIOHPP). In addition, zirconia implants exhibited higher displacements than the other implants. CONCLUSION: In the normal loading scenario, the tensile and compressive stresses and strains on the mandible were within the allowable limits when all restorations were used. Under the chin impact loading scenario, the anterior body of the mandible was damaged by restorations 1 and 4.

This in vitro study evaluated the influence of radiant exposure and material shade on the degree of conversion (DC) and microhardness of a resin-based composite (RBC). Sixty-four RBC specimens in shades A1E (enamel) and A4D (dentin) were light cured at a calibrated exitance of 1000 mW/cm2 for 5, 10, 15, or 20 seconds, resulting in radiant exposure levels of 5, 10, 15, or 20 J/cm2. The DC was determined using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (n = 3 per shade per exposure level). The Knoop hardness number (KHN) was measured on the top and bottom surfaces of each specimen (n = 5 per shade per exposure level). Data were analyzed using 2- and 3-way analyses of variance and post hoc Tukey tests (α = 0.05). The RBC shade did not affect the DC (P = 0.860), and the lowest DC values were achieved with an exposure level of 5 J/cm2 (P < 0.001). The shade did not affect the KHN on the top surface, but the radiant exposure level did, with the application of 5 J/cm2 resulting in significantly lower values (P < 0.05). For the bottom surface, shade A1E showed significantly higher KHN values than A4D (P < 0.001). An increase in the radiant exposure led to increased DC and KHN for both shades of RBC until reaching a saturation point of 10 J/cm2 for A1E and the top surface of A4D. The darker and more opaque shade was not adequately polymerized at a 2-mm depth, even when the highest radiant exposure level was applied.

PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of different surface treatments and thicknesses on the color, transparency, and surface roughness of ultra-transparent zirconia. METHODS: A total of 120 Katana ultra-translucent multi-layered zirconia specimens were divided into 12 groups according to the thickness (0.3, 0.5, and 0.7 mm) and surface treatment (control, airborne particle abrasion [APA], lithium disilicate coating, and glaze on). Color difference (ΔE00) and relative translucency parameter (RTP00) were calculated using a digital spectrophotometer. The surface roughness (Ra, Rq, Sa, and Sq) was measured using a non-contact profile scanner. The surface morphologies and microstructures of the samples were observed using a tungsten filament scanning electron microscope. Statistical analyses were performed by one-way and two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by post hoc multiple comparisons and Pearson's correlation (α = 0.05). RESULTS: The results showed that the surface treatment, ceramic thickness, and their interactions had significant effects on ΔE00 and RTP00 (p < 0.001). The surface treatment significantly altered the micromorphology and increased the surface roughness of the ceramic samples. APA exhibited the lowest transparency, largest color difference, and highest surface roughness. Zirconia with 0.3 mm and 0.7 mm thicknesses showed strong negative correlations between Sa and RTP00. CONCLUSIONS: The three internal surface treatments significantly altered the surface roughness, color difference, and transparency of ultra-transparent zirconia. As the thickness increased, the influence of the inner surface treatment on the color difference and transparency of zirconia decreased. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: For new zirconia internal surface treatment technologies, in addition to considering the enhancement effect on the bonding properties, the potential effects on the color and translucency of high-transparency zirconia should also be considered. Appropriately increasing the thickness of zirconia restorations helps minimize the effect of surface treatment on the optical properties.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of monolithic zirconia laminate veneers (MZLV) compared to lithium disilicate laminate veneers (LDLV). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty resin replicas, each prepared with depths of 0.5 mm, 0.7 mm, and 1 mm, were produced using a 3D printer from acrylic teeth. Laminate veneers of these thicknesses were milled from pre-sintered monolithic zirconia (3rd generation) and lithium disilicate blocks. The intaglio surface of MZLV was treated with air abrasion using 110 µm diameter silica-modified aluminium oxide particles and ceramic primer, while LDLV was etched with etchant gel and treated with the ceramic primer before cementation with resin cement. Vertical marginal discrepancy (VMD) was assessed using a stereomicroscope, and a load-to-failure test was conducted using a universal testing machine. Failure modes were evaluated macroscopically on fractured surfaces. Data were analysed statistically using Two-way ANOVA and Bonferroni correction (α = 0.05). RESULTS: LDLV samples exhibited significantly larger VMD compared to MZLV samples across all thicknesses, especially in cervical, palatal, and mean data. Within the LDLV group, load-to-fracture values for 0.7 mm and 1.0 mm thicknesses were similar, whereas for 0.5 mm thickness, it was significantly lower. In the MZLV group, load-to-fracture values were lower for 0.7 mm and 1.0 mm thicknesses compared to LDLV, but higher for 0.5 mm thickness. CONCLUSIONS: Material choice and restoration thickness significantly influence laminate veneer restorations' success. MZLV generally exhibits superior vertical marginal fit compared to LDLV, with varying load-to-failure values across different thicknesses. Clinical management of debonding in MZLV is simpler compared to restoration fracture in LDLV. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Considering clinical factors, MZLV may be a preferable option to LDLV for this restoration with the thickness of 0.5 mm.

Purpose: To evaluate whether reduced curing performance due to compromised light tip placement can be mitigated by bulk-fill composite and/or high-intensity curing light. Methods: Plastic discs with 2.5-mm deep cavities were filled with a conventional (Mosaic™) or bulk-fill (Tetric® PowerFill) composite and cured with a BluePhase® PowerCure curing light at normal and high-power settings, with light tip placement at distance and/or 45 degree angle. Curing time and irradiance were three, five, or 10 seconds at 1,200, 2,000, or 3,000 mW/cm2 (10 samples). After 24 hours, Vickers hardness on top and bottom surfaces was measured and analyzed using analysis of variance and pairwise comparisons (α<0.05). Results: All top surfaces had higher hardness than bottom surfaces. Cure (bottom-to-top hardness ratio) was significantly affected by material, distance/angle, and curing regimen (P<0.001), and generally decreased when tip distance and angle increased. Bottom-to-top hardness ratios of bulk-fill composite (0.42 to 0.66) were significantly higher than those of conventional composite (0.20 to 0.31). High-power curing significantly increased bulk-fill's curing performance as it was specifically formulated for this curing light. Conclusions: Increased light tip distance and angle compromised composite curing. Bulk-fill composite cured better at the bottom of the restoration than conventional composite regardless of light tip distance/angle. High-power light curing improved curing performance only in bulk-fill composite. Nevertheless, due to low bottom-to-top ratios (0.20 to 0.66) across all samples, even under ideal light tip placement, both composites should be cured in increments of less than 2.5 mm.

BACKGROUND: Long-term success of implant restoration depends on many factors one of them is the sufficient implant stability which is lowered in compromised bone density sites such as the maxilla as it is categorized as type III & IV bone, so searching for a new innovation and updates in implant material and features is very mandatory. So, the aim of this study was to compare between two implant materials (roxolid and traditional titanium) on the primary and secondary stability of implant retained maxillary overdenture. METHODS: Eighteen completely edentulous patients were selected. All patients received maxillary implant-retained overdentures and lower complete dentures; patients were divided equally into two groups according to the type of implant materials. Group A received a total number of 36 implants made of roxolid material and Group B received a total number of 36 implants made of traditional titanium alloys. Implant stability was assessed using ostell device, the primary implant stability was measured at the day of implant installation however, secondary implant stability was measured after six weeks of implant placement. Paired t-test was used to compare between primary and secondary stability in the same group and an independent t-test was used to compare between the two groups with a significant level < 0.05. RESULTS: Independent t-test revealed a significant difference between the two groups with p -value = 0.0141 regarding primary stability and p-value < 0.001 regarding secondary stability, as roxolid implant group was statistically higher stability than titanium group in both. Paired t- test showed a statistically significant difference in roxolid implant group with p-value = 0.0122 however, there was non-statistically significant difference in titanium group with p-value = 0.636. Mann Whitney test showed a significant difference between the two groups regarding amount of change in stability with p value = 0.191. roxolid implant group showed a higher amount of change in stability than the titanium implant group. CONCLUSION: Within the limitation of this study, it could be concluded that: Roxolid implants showed promising results regarding primary and secondary stability compared to conventional Titanium implants and can be a better alternative in implant retained maxillary overdentures. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Retrospectively NCT06334770 at 26-3-2024.

BACKGROUND: Mechanical complications affect the stability of implant restorations and are a key concern for clinicians, especially with the frequent introduction of new implant designs featuring various structures and materials. This study evaluated the effect of different prosthetic index structure types and implant materials on the stress distribution of implant restorations using both in silico and in vitro methods. METHODS: Four finite element analysis (FEA) models of implant restorations were created, incorporating two prosthetic index structures (cross-fit (CF) and torc-fit (TF)) and two implant materials (titanium and titanium-zirconium). A static load was applied to each group. An in vitro study using digital image correlation (DIC) with a research scenario identical to that of the FEA was conducted for validation. The primary strain, sensitivity index, and equivalent von Mises stress were used to evaluate the outcomes. RESULTS: Changing the implant material from titanium to titanium-zirconium did not significantly affect the stress distribution or maximum stress value of other components, except for the implant itself. In the CF group, implants with a lower elastic modulus increased the stress on the screw. The TF group showed better stress distribution on the abutment and a lower stress value on the screw. The TF group demonstrated similar sensitivity for all components. DIC analysis revealed significant differences between TF-TiZr and CF-Ti in terms of the maximum (P < 0.001) and minimum principal strains (P < 0.05) on the implants and the minimum principal strains on the investment materials in both groups (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Changes in the implant material significantly affected the maximum stress of the implant. The TF group exhibited better structural integrity and reliability.

BACKGROUND: The temperature changes, chemical agents, and brushing activity that resin composite restorations are exposed to in the oral environment can cause changes in surface roughness. In this study, the aim was to investigate in vitro the clinical one-year surface roughness changes of different types of composites (flowable or conventional) from the same companies by subjecting them to immersion in solutions, brushing, and thermal cycling procedures to simulate intraoral conditions. METHODS: Four different resin composite brands were included in the study using both their conventional (Charisma Smart, 3M Filtek Ultimate Universal, Omnichroma, Beautifil II) and flowable resin composites (Charisma Flow, 3M Filtek Ultimate Flowable, Omnichroma Flow, Beautifil Flow Plus F00), giving 4 groups with 2 types of resin composite in each. 40 samples were prepared for each group/resin type, for a total of 320 samples. After initial surface roughness measurements by a mechanical profilometer, the samples were divided into 4 subgroups (n = 10) and immersed in solutions (distilled water, tea, coffee, or wine) for 12 days. The samples were then subjected to 10,000 cycles of brushing simulation and 10,000 cycles of thermal aging. Surface roughness measurements were repeated after the procedures. For statistical analysis, the 3-way analysis of variance and the Tukey test were used (p < 0.05). RESULTS: It was concluded that composite groups and types had an effect on surface roughness at time t0 (p < 0.001). At time t1, the highest surface roughness value was obtained in the Beautifil-conventional interaction. When the surface roughness values between time t0 and t1 were compared, an increase was observed in the Beautifil II and Beautifil Flow Plus F00, while a decrease was observed in the other composite groups. CONCLUSION: Composite groups, types, and solutions had an effect on the surface roughness of resin composites. After aging procedures, it was concluded that the Beautifil group could not maintain the surface structure as it exceeded the threshold value of 0.2 µm for bacterial adhesion.

This (in vitro) investigation was conducted to evaluate PH value and antibacterial effect of Alkasite restorative materials against important oral pathogens Streptococcus mutans and lactobacillus plantarum. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Four groups were made of three different type ion releasing materials Cention N= group 1, Primer free Cention Forte=group 2, Primer applied Cention Forte=group 3 and Fuji IX= group 4. A total number of 72 discs in form samples (2 mm height and 5mm diameter) were constructed in polyethylene mold divided according to the evaluating parameters. 32 specimens for PH measurements (n=8) and 40 specimens were utilized for antibacterial effect (n=5) for each bacterial species. The antibacterial properties of groups were assessed by direct contact test. An adjusted diluted broth culture of each bacterium (Streptococcus mutans) and (Lactobacillus plantarum) were prepared. RESULTS: At all intervals of time both Cention N and Primer free Cention Forte has significantly higher PH value in comparison with Fuji IX. Primer applied Cention Forte. There was no significant difference between Cention N, Primer free Cention and Fuji IX in terms of their effect in reducing viable colony count in both bacterial species. CONCLUSION: Along period of (28day) Alkasite material groups (Cention N and Primer free Cention Forte) showed the ability to increase the storage solution PH value. Also, both groups have antibacterial effect against (Streptococcus mutans) and (Lactobacillus plantarum) by inhibiting their numbers. Applying Cention primer showed negative effect on both PH value and the antibacterial effect of the material.

Dental decay is a prevalent bacterial disease affecting a significant percentage of children globally. In paediatric dentistry, various materials are available for restoring deciduous teeth, addressing both functional and aesthetic concerns. However, paediatric dentists encounter challenges related to patient compliance, limited working time, and material handling. This study aims to observe the survival rate of bulk-fill composite restorations in paediatric patients over a five-year follow-up. A total of 198 patients aged 0 to 12 years underwent 673 class II restorations on deciduous first molars (1M) and second molars (2M). All restorations were conducted performed by 1 Pediatric DDS resident students from the Paediatric Dentistry Department (Padova University), utilizing using different isolation techniques. Bulk-fill composite restorations were evaluated over a five-year follow-up, and data were collected by a single investigator. After five years, 177 patients and 611 restorations were assessed. The retention rate was higher in primary second molars than in first molars, with fewer marginal dyschromies and less formation of secondary caries. The overall failure rate was higher in primary first molars and primary lower second molars. Bulk-fill composites demonstrated significantly positive performance in terms of retention, maintenance, and marginal dyschromies. Bulk-fill composites are promising materials of choice in paediatric dentistry due to their easy handling and favorable properties. Further research is necessary to compare high and low viscosity bulk-fill composites and assess the impact of different variables on restoration success.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the effects of conventional cigarette smoking (CS) and recent heated tobacco products (HTPs) on the surface roughness and color stability of different indirect restorative materials. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred disc-shaped samples were constructed of three different restorative CAD/CAM materials: lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS e.max CAD; Ivoclar Vivadent, Liechtenstein), zirconia (BruxZir® Zirconia, Glidewell, USA) and polyetheretherketone (BioHPP® bredent GmbH, Germany). Of the IPS e.max CAD and the Bruxzir samples, 20 samples were glazed, and 20 samples were polished, while the BioHPP samples were all polished according to the manufacturer's instructions. Fifty samples were subjected to conventional cigarette smoking (LM, Philip Morris International Inc., Egypt) (Groups: IPS e.max CAD_Glazed exposed to CS (LD_G_Cig), IPS e.max CAD_Polished exposed to CS (LD_P_Cig), Bruxzir_Glazed exposed to CS (Zr_G_Cig), Bruxzir _Polished exposed to CS (Zr_P_Cig) and BioHPP exposed to CS (PEEK_Cig) and fifty samples were exposed to heated tobacco product smoking (Heets, Russet selection, Philip Morris International Inc., Italy) (Groups: IPS e.max CAD_Glazed exposed to HTP (LD_G_HTP), IPS e.max CAD_Polished exposed to HTP (LD_P_HTP), Bruxzir_Glazed exposed to HTP (Zr_G_HTP), Bruxzir CAD_Polished exposed to HTP (Zr_P_HTP) and BioHPP exposed to HTP (PEEK_HTP).. Six hundred cigarettes/heets representing 30 days of medium smoking behavior (20 cigarettes/day) were used. Before and after exposure to smoke, the surface roughness of all the samples was measured using JITAI8101 surface roughness tester (Beijing Jitai Tech Detection Device Co., Ltd, China, and the color parameters were assessed using VITA Easyshade Advance 4.01 (VITA shade, VITA made, VITA). The data were analyzed using One-way ANOVA, paired sample t-test and independent sample t-test. The significance level was set at α < 0.05. The surface topography was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and analyzed using energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy to determine changes in the surface chemical composition. RESULTS: Both types of smoking caused significant increases in the surface roughness of all the samples. There was a significant difference in color change between CS and HTP for all materials with different surface finish (P < 0.01) and zirconia had the greatest effect on color change (P < 0.001). In contrast, polyetheretherketone (PEEK) "BioHPP" had the least effect (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Exposure to different types of smoking induce changes in the surface topography and color of different esthetic restorative materials. Compared with HTP, conventional cigarette smoke has a greater effect on the surface roughness and color stability of esthetic restorative materials. The glazed surfaces showed less change in surface topography than did the polished surfaces. Zirconia showed better color stability when compared to polyetheretherketone (PEEK).

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effect of coffee thermocycling on color stability and translucency of CAD-CAM polychromatic high translucent zirconia compared with lithium disilicate glass ceramic. METHODS: Sixteen rectangular plates (14 × 16 × 1.0 mm) of two ceramic materials (IPS E.max CAD (IEC), IPS E.max ZirCAD Prime [IZP]) were prepared. Each specimen was measured for color coordinates using a spectrophotometer following 30,000 cycles of coffee thermocycling. CIELAB formula was used to determine color and translucency differences (ΔE and ΔTP). The means of ΔE and ΔTP were compared using independent samples t-test and were evaluated using their respective 50%:50% perceptibility and acceptability thresholds (PT and AT). One-way analysis of variance was performed to evaluate the translucency parameter (TP) and surface roughness (Ra) of each material. RESULTS: Mean ΔE values of IEC (4.69) and IZP (4.64) were higher than the AT (ΔE ≤ 2.7) with no significant difference found between the two groups (p = 0.202). Considering the TP, only IEC showed a statistically significant increase in TP value (p < 0.001). However, the mean ΔTP of IEC (3.25) remained within the range of acceptability (1.3 < ΔTP ≤ 4.4). CONCLUSIONS: Within the limitations of this current study, the color stability of all materials was clinically affected by coffee thermocycling. In terms of translucency, only lithium disilicate glass ceramic was influenced by coffee thermocycling. High translucent zirconia had superior translucency stability compared to lithium disilicate glass ceramic.

OBJECTIVES: This study assessed the effects of 15% and 20% carbamide peroxide (CP) on color, surface roughness, and hardness of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) dental ceramics. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This in vitro study was conducted on 120 Vita Mark II, Celtra Duo, and Suprinity CAD/CAM ceramic specimens. The ceramic specimens in each group (n = 40) were randomly assigned to two subgroups (n = 20) for polishing and glazing, and their baseline color, surface roughness (Ra), and hardness were assessed. In each subgroup, half of the specimens were exposed to 15% CP, while the other half were exposed to 20% CP. Their color change (ΔE), surface roughness, and hardness were then measured again. Surface roughness, hardness, and color were analyzed sequentially by profilometer, Vickers hardness tester, and spectrophotometer, respectively. Data were analyzed by repeated measures ANOVA, one-way ANOVA, and post hoc Bonferroni test (α = 0.05). RESULTS: The surface roughness of all groups significantly increased after bleaching treatment (p < 0.05). Surface hardness of all groups decreased after bleaching treatment, but this reduction was only significant in Vita Mark II subgroups (glazed, polished, 15%, and 20% CP). The ΔE was not clinically and visually perceivable in any group. CONCLUSION: The present results revealed that concentration of CP and type of surface treatment affected the surface properties of CAD/CAM ceramics. Type of surface treatment only affected the surface hardness of Vita Mark II ceramics (p < 0.05). Concentration of CP had a significant effect only on polished Vita Mark II.

BACKGROUND: Preservation of the remaining structures while maintaining an esthetic appearance is a major objective in removable partial prosthodontics. So, the aim of the current study was to compare the stresses induced on the supporting structures by two digitally produced esthetic core materials; Zirconia and Polyetheretherketone when used as an extracoronal attachment in distal extension removable partial dentures using strain gauge analysis. METHODS: A mandibular Kennedy class II stone cast with the necessary abutments' preparations was scanned. The mandibular left canine and first premolar teeth were virtually removed. An acrylic mandibular left canine and first premolar teeth were prepared with heavy chamfer finish line and scanned. Virtual superimposition of the acrylic teeth in their corresponding positions was done. Two strain gauge slots were designed: distal to the terminal abutment and in the residual ridge. Two models and two sets of scanned teeth were digitally printed. The printed teeth were then placed in their corresponding sockets in each model and scanned. The attachment design was selected from the software library and milled out of Zirconia in the model ZR and Polyetheretherketone in the model PE. Five removable partial dentures were constructed for each model. The strain gauges were installed in their grooves. A Universal testing machine was used for unilateral load application of 100 N (N). For each removable partial denture, five measurements were made. The data followed normal distribution and were statistically analyzed by using unpaired t test. P value < 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. RESULTS: During unilateral loading unpaired t test showed statistically significant difference (p = 0.0001) in the microstrain values recorded distal to the abutment between the models ZR (-1001.6 µÎµ ± 24.56) and PE (-682.6 µÎµ ± 22.18). However, non statistically significant difference (p = 0.3122) was observed in the residual ridge between them; ZR (16.2 µÎµ ± 4.53) and PE (15 µÎµ ± 3.74). CONCLUSIONS: In removable partial dentures, Polyetheretherketone extracoronal attachment induces less stress on the supporting abutments compared to the zirconia one with no difference in the stresses induced by them on the residual ridge.
