Some topical fluorides cause surface changes in dental materials. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of a topical acidulated phosphate sodium fluoride (1.23% APF) foam with the effects of other topical fluorides on the surface of veneer porcelain. Forty porcelain specimens (Ceramco) were placed into eight groups (N = 5). Four groups were immersed in either 1.23% APF foam, 1.23...

Objective: To evaluate fracture strength of veneered translucent zirconium dioxide crowns designed with different porcelain layer thicknesses. Materials and Methods: Sixty crowns, divided into six groups of 10, were used in this study. Groups were divided according to different thicknesses of porcelain veneer on translucent zirconium dioxide cores of equal thickness (0.5 mm). Porcelain thicknes...

The overall aim of the research was to better understand the influence of raw material characteristics on the quality of decorative veneer, to identify phenotypes of oak and sessile oak valuable for veneer use, and to promote quality in relationship with sustainable development of Romania’s forests. This paper describes specific aspects regarding wood defects and quality conditions imposed on r...

Objective:This study investigated the cervicalmicroleakage between titanium and three porcelain systems. Material andMethods:The titanium used in this study (commercially pure, grade 2, IMNR Bucharest, Romania) was veneered with three porcelain systems specially designed for fusing on titanium: Ti22 (Noritake, Nishikamogun, Aichi, Japan), Triceram (Esprident, Ispringen, Germany) andVitatitanker...

This study evaluated the bond strength of veneering porcelain with an experimental conditioner-coated zirconia. Pre-sintered Y-TZP specimens (n = 44) were divided in two groups based on conditioning type. After sintering, all sample surfaces were sandblasted and layered with veneering porcelain. Additionally, half of the specimens in each group underwent thermal cycling (10,000 cycles, 5-55 °C)...

Objective: The aim of the study was to make an inventory of current literature on the bond strength between zirconia and veneering porcelain after surface treatment of zirconia by grinding with diamond bur and/or with airborne-particle abrasion. Material and methods: The literature search for the present review was made following recommended guidelines using acknowledged methodology on how to d...

Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys pubescens Mazei ex H. de Lebaie), one of the most commonly used species in China, is a strong and stiff material. In this paper, the manufacturing process for glued bamboo laminate (GBL) is presented. The mechanical properties of GBL (compression strength, bending, tension, and shearing) were tested. Results indicated that the mechanical properties of GBL were signifi...

A new esthetic solution to restore dental implants in combination with limited interdental, facial or labial, or interocclusal space is presented. This article describes the translational application of novel-design porcelain veneers and adhesive restorative principles in the implant realm. A patient is presented who was treated with a single implant-supported restoration replacing a missing ma...

Objective: There is a growing interest for the use of Y-TZP zirconia as core material in veneered all-ceramic prostheses. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of CET on the stress distribution of a porcelain layered to zirconia core single crowns by finite elements analysis. Material and methods: CET of eight different porcelains was considered during the analysis. Results:...
