Wettability of saliva substitutes across various denture base fabrication techniques

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The present study evaluated the contact angles (CAs) of four denture base materials subjected to different surface treatments using deionized water and saliva substitutes. Material and Methods A total of 32 rectangular specimens were manufactured using four different denture base materials: heat‐cured compression molded Lucitone 199 (C)

Assessment of fit accuracy and retentive strength of additively manufactured zirconia crowns luted to Ti‐base abutments with different resin cements: An in vitro study

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study investigated the influence of cement gap size on the marginal and internal fit, and cement gap size and type on retention of additively manufactured zirconia (AM‐Z) crowns on titanium bases (Ti‐base). Materials and Methods A total of 135 zirconia crowns were designed with three different cement gap sizes: 20 µm, 30 µm, and ...

Effect of margin thickness and cement gap on the fabrication and fit accuracy of additively manufactured crowns in definitive resins with different filler content

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate how commercially available composite resins in varying filler content affect the fabrication and fit accuracy (trueness and precision) of additively manufactured (AM) definitive crowns with different margin thickness and cement gaps by comparing them to subtractively manufactured (SM) polymer‐infiltrated ceramic crowns ...

Bond strength enhancement for additively manufactured zirconia: Micro‐retentive design approach

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the effect of digitally designed micro‐retention features on the bond strength of additively manufactured (AM) zirconia copings. Materials and Methods Sixty titanium base abutments (NobelParallel, NobelBiocare), pretreated with 50 µm alumina particles were divided into four groups (n = 15 per group); one group with ...

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 ...

The effects of material thicknesses and substrates on the translucency and color masking ability of additively manufactured definitive crown materials

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the translucency of the new 3D‐printable materials concerning thickness and the color masking ability of each material against different substrate colors. Materials and Methods Ninety square‐shaped specimens (12.0 mm × 12.0 mm) of two new 3D‐printable materials: ceramic‐infiltrated hybrid resin composite (VS) and light ...

Effect of denture cleansers and surface treatments on the color stability, gloss, and wettability of CAD‐CAM denture bases

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the impact of surface treatments and chemical denture cleansers on the surface color stability, gloss, and wettability of compression‐molded, 3D‐printed, and milled denture base materials. Materials and Methods Specimens (12 × 16 × 7 mm) were fabricated from a standardized STL file in three denture base materials ...

The Survival of the Royals

Kyklos, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study the effect of royal status—a historically rooted legal privilege enjoyed by hereditary monarchs and their families—on human longevity, a proxy of individuals' health capital. We disentangle the effect of royal status that encompassed serving as heads of state from that of other royal family members and compare it to their contemporary

Multiculturalism, Majority Rights and the Established Culture

Nations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent critiques of multiculturalism contend that it is the ethnic or cultural majority in Western democracies that is now most vulnerable to cultural and identity dissolution, thus entitling it to majority rights on much the same grounds that multiculturalists defend minority rights. These critiques follow and perpetuate the binary opposition
