Background: With the increasing patients’ demand for a perfect smile, the call for highly aesthetic and yet minimally invasive veneers has surmounted. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the colour of CAD/CAM lithium disilicate veneers fabricated in different thicknesses and different translucencies of the lithium disilicate blocks. Materials and Methods: Forty discs of lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS e.max CAD) of shade A1 of both high and low translucency (HT, LT) were tested for their colour reproduction. HT and low LT blocks were cut in the form of plates of dimensions (12 x 14 mm) and of different …

Aim of the study: This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of various sintering protocols on the translucency of highly translucent cubic zirconia. Materials and methods: A total of forty discs of two types of zirconia ceramics were used in this study. The specimens were divided into two main groups according to the type of zirconia; Group 1 (n=20): Cubic zirconia (DD Cube X2 98color) and Group 2 (n=20): Tetragonal zirconia (BioZX2color). Each group was subdivided into two subgroups, where 10 discs were per subgroup according to the sintering protocol. Cubic and tetragonal zirconia blanks of dimensions (98 …

Introduction: Finding a suitable material that could be used to restore relatively small inter-arch spaces in which reasonable aesthetics as well as good functional strength could be achieved is a difficult process that requires good understanding of the clinical situation and precise management. Historically Metal used to offer the smallest possible thickness with excellent strength but lacks resiliency with poor aesthetics.
Aim of the study: This In-vitro study was conducted to compare two different aesthetic materials PEEK and ACETAL regarding their mechanical strength when used as Overdenture framework in a relatively small thickness.
Material and Methods: 120 specimens were …

ABSTRACT
Purpose: This Randomized Control Trial study aimed to compare between two designs of Precision Attachment Unilateral Removable Partial Denture, one conventional design and the other modified with bracing arm and mesial rest.
Materials and Methods: twenty male patients having Kennedy Class II mandibular edentulous ridges received the two designs in a split mouth study for a follow-up period of eighteen months. Probing Pocket Depth around abutment was measured. A standardized radiographic technique was used to evaluate bone height changes.
Results: The results showed insignificant pocket depth and bone height changes in the two groups.
Conclusion: Precision Attachment Unilateral Removable …

Purpose: The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of ceramic material type and thickness on opalescence before and after accelerated aging. Materials and methods: 180 all-ceramic slices were divided into three groups (n=60) according to the ceramic material (InCoris TZI, Empress CAD HT, and Empress CAD LT). Each group was further subdivided into four subgroups (n = 15) according to their thickness (0.5 mm, 0.8 mm, 1 mm and 1.2 mm).). CIE Lab coordinates were measured for each slice against black and white backgrounds using intraoral spectrophotometer and OP was calculated. All specimens were subjected to …
