Effect of Different Impression and Fabrication Techniques on the Precision of Custom Metal Posts: Fully Digital, Semi-Digital, and Conventional. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective This study evaluated the effect of different impression and fabrication techniques—conventional casting and 3D printing—on the precision of metal post‐and‐core restorations. Methods and Materials A maxillary central incisor was designed in ExoCAD, and STL files of the reference tooth and the “ideal” post were saved; the reference ...

Mechanical plaque removal in step‐1 of care
Abstract Maintaining a regular oral hygiene routine is essential for taking care of our mouths, ensuring healthy teeth, and achieving fresh breath. Patient education on oral hygiene is an important component of their overall treatment. Firstly, patients should be informed about the direct connection between bacteria in dental plaque and oral diseases ...
