Purpose: To review the performance of self-adhesive luting agents to determine their clinical evidence.
Materials And Methods: In March 2013, we conducted a literature search by means of PubMed and manually searched German and English medical journals using general search terms (e.g.
Objective: To investigate the two-body wear performance of monolithic dental ceramics with different surface treatments.
Method And Materials: Standardized specimens (n = 8/ series) were fabricated from three monolithic dental ceramics (experimental translucent zirconia, experimental shaded zirconia, lithium disilicate). Four groups of each material were defined according to clinically relevant surface treatments: polished, polishedground, polished-ground-repolished, glazed.
Objective: To investigate the influences of abutment water sorption and various aging parameters on the fracture resistance of zirconia copings.
Methods: Using a master die, identical replicas were made from three resin materials. The first was a melamine resin with very high water sorption (n = 48), the second an experimental resin core build-up composite with moderate water sorption (n = 40) and the third a commercially available core build-up composite with low water sorption (n = 40).
