Effect Of Different Polishing Systems On Surface Roughness And Color Stability Of Lithium Disilicate Ceramics, Mahmoud Al Ankily, Fatma Makkeyah
Effect Of Different Polishing Systems On Surface Roughness And Color Stability Of Lithium Disilicate Ceramics, Mahmoud Al Ankily, Fatma Makkeyah
Dentistry
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of two polishing systems on the surface roughness and color stability of lithium disilicate ceramic. Materials and Methods: Forty disc-shaped lithium disilicate samples were constructed and cemented into a cavity prepared onto the labial surface of freshly extracted bovine teeth; The samples were divided into four groups (10 samples per group); C: Control, SS: Scaling only, SE: Scaling followed by polishing using Eve Diapro lithium disilicate polishers, SD: Scaling followed by polishing using Diatech ShapeGuard ceramic polishing plus kit. The surface roughness was measured before scaling, after scaling and finally after the …

Restoration of aesthetics is one the major patients’ concern in dentistry which may be disrupted due to tooth-loss secondary to trauma, or as part of orthodontic treatment or periodontal problem. A number of treatment options are available for the replacement of teeth, but they may be expensive, and time-consuming, involving artificial teeth. For immediate tooth replacement, patient’s own intentionally extracted or unintentionally avulsed tooth maybe used. The current narrative review was planned to discuss various techniques for the use of natural tooth pontic, which preserves the original contours, size and colour of the replaced tooth. Before using these teeth in …
Radiographic Evaluation Of The Margins Of Clinically Acceptable Metal-Ceramic Crowns, Sheikh Bilal Badar, Kamil Zafar, Rabia Ghafoor, Farhan Raza Khan
Radiographic Evaluation Of The Margins Of Clinically Acceptable Metal-Ceramic Crowns, Sheikh Bilal Badar, Kamil Zafar, Rabia Ghafoor, Farhan Raza Khan
Section of Dental-Oral Maxillofacial Surgery
Objective: To radiographically evaluate the proximal marginal fit of the clinically acceptable metal-ceramic crowns.
Methods: The prospective study was conducted at the dental clinics of Aga Khan University, Karachi, from July to December 2018, and comprised metal-ceramic crowns that were evaluated prior to the cementation. Clinical examinations were conducted by seating the crown on the tooth preparation and visual assessment was done using sharp explorer along the margins. Clinically acceptable crowns were then evaluated on the bite-wing radiograph. Any horizontal or vertical inaccuracy of >0.5mm at the proximal margins was recorded as 'discrepancy'. Data was analysed using SPSS 22.
Results: …

Navigating Through Our History In Research: An Altmetric Analysis For Publications By The Full-Time Operative Dentistry Faculty At The Aga Khan University Hospital In The Past Decade, Nighat Naveed, Fahad Umer
Section of Dental-Oral Maxillofacial Surgery
Objective: To analyse the social dissemination of publications by fulltime faculty at a tertiary care facility.
Methods: The retrospective study was conducted at the Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, and comprised publication records of the fulltime Operative Dentistry faculty members between July 2011 till July 2021. The search was done on Google Scholar, Altmetric Explorer and PubMed electronic databases. After final screening, all the publications in PubMed-indexed journals, including in vitro studies, randomised controlled trials, original research articles, case reports and letters to the editor, for which the Altmetric Attention Score was available were included.
Results: Of the 225 publications …
