Shallow Shell resin versus traditional resin: A case study for Cu(II) removal

A laboratory evaluation of bulk-fill versus traditional multi-increment-fill resin-based composites.

Some concerns exist, however, regarding bulk-fill composites. One proposed rationale for limiting composite increments to 2 mm is to allow the curing light to penetrate to the resin farthest away from the light source.1,2 A second reason for using 2-mm increments is to minimize the shrinkage and shrinkageinduced stress associated with composite polymerization. Contraction stresses that exceed t...

Placement of a preformed indirect resin composite shell crown: a case report.

A comparative study of pumice versus hydrogen peroxide as pretreatments for acid etching for resin bonding.

controlled by the organic content of the enamel. Marshall, Olson, and Lee4 in 1975 studied acid etching for pit and fissure sealants without precleaning the teeth and found significant advantage in having a clean, debris-free, and uniformly roughened surface for good sealing. They proposed longer etching time. Other studies proposed using other materials to solve this problem of debris. In 1979...

Comparison of the solubility of three resin cements and a resin-modified glass ionomer cement: An in vitro study

Background and aims: Solubility is an important property of luting cements in determining clinical durability. The aim of this study was to compare the solubility of Panavia, Calibra and Maxcem resin cements with that of GC Fuji PLUS resin modified glass ionomer cement in three different pH values. Materials and Methods: A total of 96 specimens were prepared (8mm diameter, 4mm thickness) accor...
