Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how wall thickness impacts the fracture load of 3D printed hollow zirconia teeth.
- Different wall thicknesses (0.30, 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00 mm) were tested, with results showing that thicker walls (≥0.75 mm) had a greater fracture resistance.
- Filling hollow teeth with resin significantly improved their strength, especially in thinner designs, highlighting the importance of wall thickness and material in dental applications.
Objectives: The issue of oral health problems among refugees, not only during their journey but also once they arrive at their destination, is a current one. This study aimed to evaluate the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of refugees, with the intention of highlighting a potential need for improved education and easier access to dental care.
Materials And Methods: A questionnaire based on the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) was distributed via hyperlink on social media, targeting individuals with a refugee background to collect data on their OHRQoL.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigated how different wall thicknesses of 3D-printed hollow zirconia teeth influence their shape accuracy.
- Data was collected on teeth with varying wall thicknesses (0.30 to 1.00 mm) and angular deviations were measured.
- Results indicated that a minimum wall thickness of 0.5 mm is necessary to achieve acceptable shape accuracy, with thinner walls showing significantly larger measurement deviations.
This study aimed to assess the suitability of printed zirconia (ZrO) for adhesive cementation compared to milled ZrO. Surface conditioning protocols and disinfection effects on bond strength were also investigated. ZrO discs (n = 14/group) underwent either alumina (AlO) airborne particle abrasion (APA; 50 µm, 0.
