Wear behavior of pressable lithium disilicate glass ceramic [PDF]
AbstractThis article reports effects of surface preparation and contact loads on abrasive wear properties of highly aesthetic and high‐strength pressable lithium disilicate glass‐ceramics (LDGC). Abrasive wear testing was performed using a pin‐on‐disk device in which LDGC disks prepared with different surface finishes were against alumina pins at ...

EXPLORING THE USE OF PULSED ERBIUM LASERS TO RETRIEVE A ZIRCONIA CROWN FROM A ZIRCONIA IMPLANT ABUTMENT [PDF]
Removal of zirconia crowns, commonly used as cement-retained implant fixed restorations, can be challenging. Conventional methods of crown removal are time consuming and often leave irreparable damage to the crown, which can be costly to patients and ...

Effects of Different Polishing Protocols on Lithium Disilicate Ceramics [PDF]
Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different polishing protocols on surface roughness and morphology of lithium disilicate ceramics (IPS e.max CAD). Fifty ceramic bars (2.0x3.0x2.5 mm) were produced and randomly divided into five groups (n=10), according to surface treatments: C: Control; Cer: Ceramaster (60 s); CW: cloth ...

Optical properties of advanced lithium disilicate
A variety of firing protocols are available for the IPS e.max lithium disilicate (LD) and can be used for new, 'advanced' LD (ALD). However, the impact of firing protocols on the optical properties of ALD is still unknown.The aim of the present study was to evaluate the color difference (ΔE00), the translucency parameter (TP00) and the whiteness index ...

Fatigue behaviour of root filled teeth: The role of endodontic sealers and restorative techniques
Abstract This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the fatigue behaviour of root canal treated teeth, filled with either AH Plus Jet (AHP) or AH Plus Bioceramic Sealer (AHPB) and rehabilitated with either mesio‐occlusal‐distal (MOD) restorations (direct resin composite) or endocrowns (indirect resin composite).
