There was no significant difference in the marginal adaptation of both material copings. After the trimming process, the glass infiltration firing cycle improved the vertical marginal discrepancy for both IZ and IA copings. Clinical implications. IA and IZ copings fabricated by CAD/CAM technology have an acceptable marginal fit as documented in the literature, and the glass infiltration process improves the marginal fit after machining.
The zirconia-based resin-bonded prosthesis constitutes a viable and conservative treatment modality for the replacement of missing teeth either congenitally or from another etiology in young patients in which implant therapy and a fixed partial denture are currently contraindicated.
This study dealt with the clinical evaluation of 121 inlays and onlays generated from both Dicor ceramics and Vita porcelains. These two different types of ceramic materials were cemented using three different duo‐cured composite resin luting agents, which differed in particle size. At the end of 3 years, no difference could be detected between the clinical performance of the Dicor and Vita restorations. Both exhibited the same degree of color matching characteristics, marginal integrity, and general clinical performance; however, seven of the restorations exhibited fracture through the isthmus, which was shown to be due to insufficient cavity depth. The balance of the restorations exhibited excellent clinical performance when evaluated against the United States Public Health Service System.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
