Effect of Moving the Tip of the Light Curing Unit on the Irradiance Value Delivered. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective To determine the effect of differences in the distances and radial positions of the tips of Light‐Curing Units (LCU) on the irradiance values delivered. Materials and Methods Four LCUs—Valo X, Emitter A, CuringPen, and Pinkwave were tested at different distances from the tip (0, 2, 4, 6, 8 mm) and radial displacements (2 and 4 mm ...

Thermal Effects of Rapid High-Intensity Light Curing on Bulk-Fill Resin-Based Composites: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
Objective The objective of this study is to evaluate whether high‐intensity, short‐duration light curing of bulk‐fill resin‐based composite (RBC) causes an increase in temperature of the material, compared to the standard light‐curing protocol. Methods This review was performed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and

Evaluation of compressive and adhesive strengths of a hybrid ceramic and 5Y-PSZ zirconia cemented with three different materials. [PDF]
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the compressive and adhesive strengths of ceramic restorations (PICN and 5Y‐PSZ zirconia) cemented with one of three types of cements: conventional glass ionomer cement (GI), resin‐modified glass ionomer cement (RM‐GI), and self‐adhesive resin cement (R).

UV-Mediated Photofunctionalization of Indirect Restorative Materials Enhances Bonding to a Resin-Based Luting Agent. [PDF]
Purpose. The potential of UV‐mediated photofunctionalization to enhance the resin‐based luting agent bonding performance to aged materials was investigated. Methods. Sixty samples of each material were prepared. Yttria‐stabilized zirconia (YZr) and Pd‐Au alloy (Pd‐Au) plates were fabricated and sandblasted.

Flexural Strength and Stress Analysis of CAD-CAM Milled Glass Fiber Post and Core [PDF]
Intraradicular posts have the potential to induce mechanical stresses within the root structure during masticatory activities, hence contributing to fatigue and ultimately resulting in the fracture of the remaining dental structure. The objective of this work was to compare the stress pattern generated on the root by a computer‐aided design and ...
