Background and Aim: Restoration of primary anterior teeth with severe caries extending to the gingival margin is challenging for many clinicians especially in uncooperative children. Resin modified glass ionomer cements (RMGICs) can be suitable for use in such cases since they require fewer application steps than composite resins. This study aimed to assess the fracture strength of severely dam...

Sulfoanted poly(ether ether ketone) membranes were prepared by the sulfonating agent sulfuric acid. These membranes were modifed by incorporating conducting polymer polypyrrole in order to increase the ionic conductivity and reduce the methanol transmission rate. The modifed composite membranes were then compared on the basis of ionic conductivity, methanol transmission...

objectives: the aim of this study was to compare polymerization depth of two bulk-fill and one conventional composite cured for different times. methods: this in vitro experimental study was conducted on 54 composite samples (2×4×10mm) fabricated of tetric n-ceram bulk-fill, x-tra fil bulk-fill, and grandio conventional composite cured for 20, 30, and 40 seconds. the microhardness of samples wa...

conclusions the clinical success rates of endodontically treated premolars restored with fiber posts and direct composite restorations, direct composite restorations with cusp capping and simple direct composite restoration were perfect after one year of follow-up evaluation. background endodontically treated teeth need to be restored in a manner to provide protection for the remaining tooth st...

the residual stresses in composite laminates depend on several factors including the conditions of fabricating process, property of materials, direction and lay-ups of the layers. however the thermo-elastic behavior of composite is one of the most important parameters affecting the magnitude of residual stresses. the elastic properties and residual stresses do not remain constant under cyclic t...

various aldoximes and ketoximes synthesis of corresponding aldehydes and ketones in the presence of sio2@feso4 nano composite as recoverable nano catalyst and nh2oh·hcl. the sio2@feso4 nano composite system was carried out between 10 to 15 min in oil bath (70-80 °c) under solvent-free condition in excellent yields in addition this protocol can be used for industrial scales. this method offers s...
