Effect of Glazing Dwell Time and Cooling Duration on Flexural Strength and Surface Microhardness of 3 mol% Yttria‐Stabilized Tetragonal Zirconia: An In Vitro Study

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the effect of glazing dwell time and cooling duration on the flexural strength and surface microhardness of high‐translucency 3 mol% yttria‐stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (3Y‐TZP). Materials and Methods Total of 108 rectangular zirconia specimens (20 × 4 × 2 mm) were fabricated from preshaded monolithic blocks

Navigating challenges in prosthodontic rehabilitation after long‐term delay following fibula free flap reconstruction with a unique overlay removable prosthesis and large vertical dimension increase

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract This case report highlights the experience of one maxillofacial surgical patient who delayed prosthodontic treatment for 7 years as they saved to self‐fund access to a subsidized prosthodontic service. Without the benefit of a restored opposing dentition for a prolonged period of time, maxillary occlusal plane disruption occurred as a ...

Virtual articulation using sequential mandibular intraoral scans and computational functional rotation reference determination—Proof‐of‐concept

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Virtual articulators require accurate spatial orientation of digital casts for meaningful occlusal analysis during prosthesis design. Current methods for establishing this orientation rely on facial scanning, cone‐beam computed tomography, electronic jaw tracking, or arbitrary population–based values. This proof‐of‐concept technique presents a

Soft Tissue Substitutes: Current Biomaterials and Indications at Teeth and Implant Sites

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This manuscript provides an updated overview of the current evidence on soft tissue graft substitutes for teeth and dental implants. When appropriately indicated, these biomaterials offer a reliable, less invasive alternative to autogenous grafts, effectively improving root coverage, keratinized mucosa width, and soft tissue thickness with reduced ...

Bilateral Gum Chewing as Proprioceptive Sensorimotor Re-Education for Patients with Masticatory Muscle Weakness Presenting with Orofacial Pain and Perceived Occlusal Change: A Technical Note with a Retrospective Case Series

Bioengineering
Within the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders, masticatory myalgia is framed around muscle hyperactivity, yet a recognizable subgroup shows the opposite profile—low muscle tone, fatigue, masticatory pain, and a persistent sense that the ...
