In dentistry, many preparation guidelines for allceramic crowns are still based upon clinical experience and those developed for metal ceramic crowns that may not be applicable and need further experimental and numerical evaluation. Some specific features are requiring investigation in dental prosthetic devices, for example, configurations of the crowns’ margin [1], marginal thickness [2, 3] an...

UNLABELLED This case report outlines one possible treatment modality to manage the developmental abnormality dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI). In this case, the patient's dentition is restored using a combination of full-coverage crowns for the remaining teeth and implant-supported crowns to replace missing teeth in a re-organized occlusal scheme. The case also demonstrates the effective use of t...

The survival rates of restorations in primary molars were calculated after a retrospective examination of patients' dental records from a study population of 1,065 children. A random sample of 128 records showing information for 604 dental restorations was examined, coded, and analyzed by the life table method of survival analysis. The order of the survival rate of restorations from higher to l...

This systematic review aims to summarize the current clinical studies that investigated survival rates against fracture of endodontically treated posterior teeth restored with crowns or resin composite restorations. Literature search were performed using keywords. Publications from 1980 to 2016 were searched in PubMed, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, MEDLINE, and SCOPUS. Included studies were se...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the durability of tungsten carbide burs for the fabrication of titanium crowns using two dental CAD/CAM systems (DECSY, Digital Process, Japan and Cadim, Advance, Japan). A tungsten carbide bur in each system was examined and used without fracture to fabricate 51 titanium crowns. For both systems tiny chips were found on the bur blade at the 11th machin...

In this paper we give some sufficient conditions for the decomposition of crowns into isomorphic suns. Mathematics Subject Classification: 05C51

A set S ⊆ V (G) is stable (or independent) if no two vertices from S are adjacent. Let Ψ(G) be the family of all local maximum stable sets [6] of graph G, i.e., S ∈ Ψ(G) if S is a maximum stable set of the subgraph induced by S ∪ N(S), where N(S) is the neighborhood of S. If I is stable and there is a matching from N(I) into I, then I is a crown of order |I|+ |N(I)|, and we write I ∈ Crown(G) [...

statement of the problem: one disadvantage of cement-retained crowns is the lack of predictable irretrievability. this problem can be overcome through designing a screw access hole in the metal substructure of cement-retained restoration and using porcelain stain to define this area. purpose: this study aimed to evaluate the influence of existence of screw access hole on porcelain fracture resi...

CAD/CAM (computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing) processing or zirconia frameworks and overpressing of the veneer are modern methods available to achieve all-ceramic bilayered crowns. Besides materials strength, other factors affect restorations’ clinical longevity, such as prosthesis design and technological steps. The aim of the study is to display alternative modern technologies ...
