Background: Effects of ceramic translucency, layer thickness, and substrate colour on the shade of lithium disilicate glass-ceramic restorations proved to be significant in several studies, however, quantitative, numerical results on the relationship between the colour difference and these parameters are still lacking. The purpose of this in vitro study was to quantitatively determine how the colour reproduction ability of a lithium disilicate glass-ceramic is affected by its translucency, layer thickness, and substrate colour.

Methods: Ceramic samples were prepared from A2 shade IPS e.

Objective: The aim of this in vitro study is to evaluate the masking ability of polymer-infiltrated ceramic-network materials (PICN) with different translucencies and thicknesses on multiple types of substrates.

Materials And Methods: Ceramic samples were prepared of VITA ENAMIC blocks in two different translucencies (2M2-T, 2M2-HT) in a thickness range of 0.5-2.

Article Synopsis
  • EEC syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that impacts structures like teeth, nails, hair, and sweat glands, making prosthetic rehabilitation crucial for improving patients' quality of life.
  • The case involves creating a telescopic retained overdenture for a patient with EEC syndrome, using a digital impression and selective laser sintering due to challenges like congenital anomalies and limited mouth opening.
  • The study shows that integrating digital technology with traditional prosthetic methods can effectively address complex dental issues, restoring functions and boosting the patient's self-esteem while minimizing psychological impacts from missing teeth.
