ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the influence of different polishing systems on the surface roughness and gloss of two nano‐filled resin composites, and to investigate the effect of a modeling agent (Ceramage) on surface roughness. Methods Two nano‐filled resin composites, Filtek Z350 XT and Palfique LX5, were used.

ABSTRACT Objective Comparison of the load‐bearing capacity and failure pattern of posterior resin‐bonded fixed partial dentures (RBFPDs) differing in retainer design, zirconia material, and vertical nesting position. Materials and Methods RBFPDs replacing a maxillary first molar were fabricated with 2 retainer designs (inlay‐retained, IR; wing‐retained,

Abstract Research on institutional logics provides ample evidence that market logic and its associated practices have spread across fields within capitalist societies – a phenomenon commonly called ‘marketization’. However, logics research has paid little attention to the individual‐level mental processes that facilitate marketization.

Breaking Barriers: Scaffolding Social‐Symbolic Work for Women’s Economic Empowerment
Abstract This study advances the understanding of Women’s Economic Empowerment (WEE) in non‐Western contexts by theorizing how social‐symbolic work facilitates empowerment despite entrenched institutional and cultural constraints. Drawing on a qualitative study into the establishment of Kuwait’s first women’s business incubator, we explore how female ...

Abstract Purpose To investigate the effects of the elemental composition and the manufacturing process of cobalt chromium–molybdenum (CoCr–Mo), cobalt chromium–tungsten (CoCr–W), and CoCr–Mo‐W alloys on metal–ceramic bond strength. Materials and Methods Six CoCr‐based alloys were included in this study, a were classified into three different groups ...

Abstract Purpose In metal–ceramic restorations, the substructure fabrication method and design may affect the prognosis of the prosthesis. This study evaluated and compared the fracture resistance of metal–ceramic restorations fabricated with different substructure fabrication methods using two different alloy powders and designs.
