ABSTRACT Background/Objective 3D printed materials have been evaluated for fabricating mouthguards; however, little is known about their biomechanical performance in preventing dental trauma. This study aimed to compare two 3D printed polymers and three ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) sheets used for mouthguard fabrication regarding their mechanical ...

Improving fatigue resistance of translucent 4Y‐PSZ zirconia through glass gradation
Abstract To evaluate the effect of graded glass infiltration on the fatigue behavior and mechanical reliability of translucent 4Y‐PSZ zirconia before and after hydrothermal aging, disc‐shaped specimens were fabricated by uniaxial pressing and divided into control and glass‐graded groups (n = 36/group).

ABSTRACT The fatigue and fracture behavior of self‐piercing rivet (SPR) joints between AA6016 aluminum sheets (1–2 mm) and DX54D steel (0.95 mm) was studied under 90°, 45°, and 0° multiaxial loading. Pure shear (90°) loading produced the highest fatigue strength, whereas multiaxial (45°) loading resulted in reduced performance, with pure tension (0 ...

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 ...
