The Effect Of Artificial Aging And Surface Treatments On Microtensile Bond Strength Of Resin Cement To Hybrid Ceramics, Engy I. Hassan Shohdy, Shereen A. Nossair, Amina M. Hamdy

Future Dental Journal

Purpose: To assess the effect of aging and various surface treatments on the microtensile bond strength of resin cement to two hybrid esthetic materials. Materials and Methods: Zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (Celtra Duo, Dentsply Sirona, United States) and hybrid resin nanoceramic (Cerasmart TM, GC Corporation, Japan) blocks were cut into plates of 3 mm thickness. Each ceramic material was surface treated either with hydrofluoric acid etching and silane or with sandblasting and silane. A dual-cured adhesive resin cement (Panavia TM V5, Kuraray, U.S.A.) was utilized to bond the composite resin plates to the surface treated ceramic plates. The ceramic-composite resin blocks …

Nanomaterials And Nanorobotics In Dentistry: A Review, Yelda Kasimoglu, Derya Tabakcilar, Zeynep A. Guclu, Seiko Yamamoto-Nemoto, Elif B. Tuna, Bugra Ozen, Tamer Tuzuner, Gökhan Ince

Journal of Dentistry Indonesia

Nanotechnology is a branch of science focusing on the manipulation of materials measured on the nanoscale (size = 1–100 nm). Recent advances in the field of nanodentistry have resulted in the development of alternative treatment plans for common dental problems, bringing about a paradigm shift in dentistry. Nanorobots, also known as “nanites” or “nanomachines,” are theoretical microscopic devices that may be used for the diagnosis and treatment of oral health problems. This paper aims to discuss the latest innovations in the field of nanodentistry.

Effect Of Nanofiller Coating And Loading On Facial Elastomer Physical Properties, Rahmi K. Aulia

Theses & Dissertations

Current materials used for facial prostheses are far from being desirable, and improved properties with “skin-like” feel are needed. This study evaluates property changes induced by sequential additions of uncoated and hydrophobic-coated nano-SiO₂ to polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and compares them with those measured for conventional submicron SiO₂-filled materials. Each filler type was sequentially added to vinyl-terminated PDMS at 0%, 0.5%, 5%, 10%, and 15% by weight. Tensile, tear, Durometer hardness, translucency and viscoelastic properties were evaluated, with hardness and translucency also evaluated following 3000 hours of outdoor weathering. Results demonstrated that 15% coated nano-SiO₂-filled PDMS materials …

At the time of sinus augmentation, test sinus was grafted with stem cell-based allograft (Osteocel Plus; NuVasive Therapeutics), while the control sinus was grafted with conventional cortico-cancellous allograft (alloOss; ACE Surgical). Cone beam computer tomography (CBCT) scan was taken before …

Replacing A Single Tooth: Single Implant Vs. Three Unit Bridge, Ibeth Erazo, Aneeza Hussain

Publications and Research

There are more than two options for restoring a single tooth but our research includes a three-unit bridge and a single-tooth implant as the main options. In this paper, we discuss the advantages and disadvantages of these methods and the factors that must be considered when choosing between them for the replacement of a single tooth. Although in some cases a three-unit bridge is the most appropriate choice, implants have the advantage of allowing preservation of the integrity of sound teeth adjacent to the edentulous area. Many factors must be considered when choosing between a three-unit bridge and an implant …

Current Status Of Magnetic Resonance On Saliva For Oral And Dental Health Early Diagnosis, Anastasia Katsavochristou, Dimitrios Koumoulis

Oral Health Practice Faculty Publications

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy of biomolecules has recently gained attention for clinical diagnosis. Its combination with saliva collection and analysis can promote early disease detection and monitoring, by identifying biomarkers of specific underlying pathology or disease as detected in saliva. With this novel, non-invasive technique, certain salivary biomarkers have been linked to dental and periodontal tissues pathology, as well as to specific head and neck cancer malignancies. At present, diagnostic biomarkers are still in need for further identification (e.g., diagnosis and monitoring of Sjögren’s syndrome), and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has been found to be a promising technique to compliment the …

Exploring The Use Of Pulsed Erbium Lasers To Retrieve A Zirconia Crown From A Zirconia Implant Abutment, Ahmed Elkharashi

Theses and Dissertations

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 practitioners. This research explored the use of two different types of pulsed erbium lasers, erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser (Er:YAG) and erbium, chromium-doped yttrium, scandium, gallium and garnet (Er,Cr:YSGG), as non-invasive tools to retrieve cemented zirconia crowns from zirconia implant abutments. Times needed to remove the crowns were recorded and analyzed using ANOVA (��=0.05). No statistical differences between the debond times of each …

Three Dimensional Biometric Guide In Determining Maxillary Tooth Position And Arch Form, Tawfiq Omar Farouq

Student Works (2020-2029)

In complete denture fabrication, when pre-extraction records are lacking, determining the denture teeth positions to where the natural predecessors occupied is essential yet challenging. Although several biometric guides were suggested to position teeth for dentures, none is providing three-dimensional (3D) positions of teeth that can be used in the recently developed computer designed digital dentures. The aim of this study was to develop new biometric guides to determine the original 3D positions of the maxillary teeth and dental arch form individualised for each given dentate or edentulous maxillary cast based on selected intraoral landmarks. The objectives were to investigate the …

Gene Expression And Immunohistochemistry Analysis Of Xenograft And Allograft In Maxillary Sinus Floor Augmentation, Isaya Kungvarnchaikul

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

Quality of bone is an important factor contributing to the success of dental implants. The bone height in maxillary posterior area sometimes is not enough and might pose risks for placing dental implants. Maxillary sinus augmentation with bone substitutes is used for filling and correcting bony defects. This study aims to determine the differences in gene expressions of TNF-alpha, RUNX2, COL1A1, ALP between xenograft (Bio-Oss®) and allograft (SureOss®). Patients who needed two-stage maxillary sinus floor augmentation were included (n=13). Patient who had dental implant at posterior maxilla without bone substitutes was also used in immunohistochemistry analysis (IHC) (n=1). Bone samples …
