RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To examine the fracture resistance and fracture modes of endodontically treated teeth (ETT) restored using onlays of different materials fabricated using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM). METHODS: Sixty maxillary first premolars were randomly assigned to six groups (n=10). The first group comprised intact teeth (INT). The remaining premolars were prepared for mesio-occluso-distal cavity and root canal treatments. Group 2 was treated using polymer-reinforced zinc oxide-eugenol intermediate restorative material (IRM). Groups 3-6 were core build-up, prepared for onlay, and restored using resin nanoceramic (Cerasmart [CER]), polymer-infiltrated ceramic networks (Vita Enamic [VE]), lithium disilicate-based ceramic (IPS e.max CAD [EM]), or translucent zirconia (Katana Zirconia UTML [KZ]). All specimens were immersed in 37 °C distilled water for 24 h. Each specimen was loaded at 45° to the long axis until failure (crosshead speed, 0.5 mm/min). Fracture loads were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance and Tukey's post-hoc test (α=0.05). RESULTS: There were no significant differences in fracture load among the INT, CER, VE, and EM groups. The fracture load in the KZ group was significantly higher than those in the other groups (P < 0.05). Fracture load was the lowest in the IRM group (P < 0.05). The unrestorable failure rate was 70% in the KZ group and 10-30% in the other experimental groups. CONCLUSIONS: ETT restored using Cerasmart, Vita Enamic, or IPS e.max CAD onlays had fracture resistance and patterns comparable to those of intact teeth. Katana Zirconia UTML-restored ETT had the highest fracture load but also a higher unrestorable failure rate.

Purpose To compare and evaluate the effects of different indirect composite onlay and/or core buildup materials on the fracture resistance and fracture mode of restored endodontically treated premolars.Methods Two conventional handmade indirect composite resins (SR Nexco (NC) and Ceramage (CM)) and two core buildup materials, dual-cure composite resin (MultiCore Flow (MC)), and short fiber-reinforced composite resin (EverX Posterior (EXP)), were selected. Sixty maxillary premolars were randomly divided into six groups (n=10). Group 1 included intact teeth (INT; positive control). Mesio-occluso-distal cavity preparation and endodontic treatment was performed on the remaining premolars. Group 2 was restored with polymer-reinforced zinc oxide eugenol intermediate restorative material (IRM; negative control), whereas the experimental groups (groups 3-6) were restored with core buildup material and indirect composite onlay (MC_NC, MC_CM, EXP_NC, and EXP_CM). The specimens received compressive loading using a universal testing machine, at 45° to the long axis with a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min until fracture. Fracture modes were visually analyzed. Fracture resistance was measured and statistically analyzed using two-way and one-way ANOVA (α=0.05).Results Only the type of indirect composite onlay affected the fracture resistance of the experimental groups (P=0.009). The MC_CM group showed the highest fracture resistance, which was significantly higher than that of the MC_NC group (P=0.031). No statistically significant differences were found between the INT group and other experimental groups(P>0.05). All groups had a greater incidence of restorable than unrestorable failures.Conclusions The type of indirect composite onlay affected the fracture resistance of restored endodontically treated maxillary premolars.

Three-dimensionally printed hydroxyapatite (3DP HA) was investigated in regards to its functional properties supporting bone regeneration and tooth movement in alveolar cleft applications. Commercially available bovine xenograft (BXG), biphasic calcium phosphate alloplast (BCP), and two types of freeze-dried bone allograft granules (FDBA and FDBA-CMC) were employed as control samples. Degradability was studied by submerging the samples in pH 7.4 buffered solution at 37°C for 28 days and determining subsequent weight loss percentage. The wicking property and granular agglomeration were evaluated by putting the granules in contact with deionized water, blood, and phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Both of FDBA and FDBA-CMC showed the greatest weight loss at 28 days followed by 3DP HA. In contrast, 3DP HA showed significantly greater wicking ability than other samples for all liquid types. FDBA-CMC exhibited the greatest granular agglomeration for all liquid types followed by 3DP HA. 3DP HA was found to be a favorable candidate for bone grafting in alveolar cleft treatment.

PURPOSE: The objectives of this study were to evaluate the fracture strength and fracture patterns of provisional crowns fabricated from different materials and techniques after receiving stress from a simulated oral condition. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A monomethacrylate-based resin (Unifast Trad) and a bis-acryl-based (Protemp 4) resin were used to fabricate provisional crowns using conventional direct technique. A milled monomethacrylate resin (Brylic Solid) and a 3D-printed bis-acrylate resin (Freeprint Temp) were chosen to fabricate provisional crowns using the CAD/CAM process. All cemented provisional crowns (n=10/group) were subjected to thermal cycling (5,000 cycles at 5°-55â) and cyclic occlusal load (100 N at 4 Hz for 100,000 cycles). Maximum force at fracture was tested using a universal testing machine. RESULTS: Maximum force at fracture (mean ± SD, N) of each group was 657.87 ± 82.84 for Unifast Trad, 1125.94 ± 168.07 for Protemp4, 953.60 ± 58.88 for Brylic Solid, and 1004.19 ± 122.18 for Freeprint Temp. One-way ANOVA with Tamhane post hoc test showed that the fracture strength of Unifast Trad was statistically significantly lower than others (P<.01). No statistically significant difference was noted among other groups. For failure pattern analysis, Unifast Trad and Brylic Solid showed less damage than Protemp 4 and Freeprint Temp groups. CONCLUSION: Provisional crowns fabricated using the CAD/CAM process and the conventionally fabricated bis-acryl resins exhibited significant higher fracture strength compared to conventionally fabricated monomethacrylate resins after the aging regimen. Therefore, CAD/CAM milling and 3D printing of provisional restorations may be good alternatives for long term provisionalization.
RESUMEN
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) milling and 3-dimensional printing are readily available for the fabrication of interim restorations. However, studies comparing the marginal gap after a long period of function are lacking. PURPOSE: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the marginal gap of interim crowns fabricated from different materials and with different techniques before and after receiving simulated oral stress. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Two conventional resins, a polymethyl methacrylate resin (Unifast Trad) and a bis-acryl resin (Protemp 4), a milled polymethyl methacrylate resin (Brylic Solid), and a 3-dimensionally printed bis-acrylate resin (Freeprint Temp) were evaluated. Interim crowns (n=10/group) were fabricated by using the conventional direct technique for Unifast Trad and Protemp 4, with a maxillary molar Dentiform tooth as a template and by using CAD-CAM for Brylic Solid and Freeprint Temp. After finishing and cementation, the marginal gap was measured at the middle of all surfaces and line angles. The average value from all 8 sites was used to represent the marginal gap of each specimen. Subsequently, all interim crowns were thermocycled (5000 cycles of 5 °C and 55 °C), and cyclic occlusal load with a 5-mm steel ball at central pit (100 000 at 100 N) and the marginal gap were remeasured. The effects of different material types and aging on marginal gap were analyzed with 2-way ANOVA. The difference in marginal gap before and after aging was analyzed by using the paired t test, and the increased marginal gap was analyzed with 1-way ANOVA (α=.05). RESULTS: Both the material types and the aging regimen had a significant effect on marginal gap (P<.001). The Unifast Trad group and the Protemp 4 group had a significantly larger marginal gap than the Brylic Solid group and the Freeprint Temp group, both before and after aging (P<.01). Each group had a significantly larger marginal gap after the aging regimen (P<.001). The increased marginal gap was greatest in the Unifast Trad group, which differed statistically from the Freeprint Temp group (P=.004) but not from the other groups (P>.05). CONCLUSIONS: The interim crowns fabricated with the Brylic Solid and the Freeprint Temp had a smaller marginal gap than those fabricated with Unifast Trad and Protemp 4, both before and after aging. The Unifast Trad group showed a significantly larger increase in marginal gap after the aging regimen than the Freeprint Temp group.

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the micro-tensile bond strength (µTBS) of composite bonded to human occlusal sclerotic dentin following different surface treatments to determine the sclerotic dentin morphology. Human molars without (normal dentin; group 1) or with occlusal wear (sclerotic dentin; groups 2-5) were divided and subjected to different surface treatments, including the normal protocol for the Contax self-etch bonding system (group 1 and 2); doubled etch-prime time (group 3); pre-conditioning with 37% phosphoric acid before normal protocol (group 4); or pre-conditioning with 37% phosphoric acid before doubling the self-etching time (group 5). All teeth were restored with composite (Luxacore Z dual), sectioned into stick specimens and stored for 24 h in water before specimens were subjected to the µTBS test (n = 50 per group). The µTBS of normal dentin was not statistically significantly different from that of the sclerotic dentin groups, except for the doubled etch-prime time group which showed lower µTBS. Sclerotic dentin pre-treated with phosphoric acid resulted in less sclerotic casts and wider dentinal tubules, while doubled etch-prime time did not alter the morphology, as shown by scanning electron microscopy. In conclusion, the use of 37% phosphoric acid before applying self-etch bonding resulted in more tubule openings and a significantly higher µTBS when compared with the doubled etch-prime time group.

Polyelectrolyte multilayer (PEM) film can modify the surface properties of materials to improve cellular responses. In this study poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC), poly(sodium 4-styrene sulfonate) (PSS) and poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid) sodium salt (PSS-co-MA) were assembled into PEM {(PDADMAC/PSS)(4)/PDADMAC+PSS-co-MA} film on glass surfaces and its ability on affecting osteoblast functions were examined. PSS-co-MA film showed an increase roughness and more wettable surface as compared to glass. When the osteoblast cell line, MC3T3-E1, was seeded on the surfaces, no differences were observed in cell attachment or spreading on either PSS-co-MA film or glass at 4-16 hours. However, increases in alkaline phosphatase activity (day-5 and 7) and the expression of osteocalcin mRNA/protein at day-13 were observed. Cells cultured on PSS-co-MA film developed a faster rate of calcium deposition at day-15 compared to control. In conclusion, PSS-co-MA film enhanced osteoblast differentiation and could be used to promote mineralization and improve osseointegration for dental implants.
