Aim: To evaluate the antibacterial activity of three endodontic sealing materials, Neoseal, CeraSeal, and AH Plus against bacteria .

Materials And Methods: The antibacterial activity of three endodontic sealing materials including two bioceramic sealers; NeoSEALER Flo (group I), CeraSeal (group II), and one epoxy resin sealer; AH Plus (group III) was investigated against bacteria American Type Cell Culture Collection (ATCC) 29212 (ATCC, Rockville, Maryland, USA). Using modified direct contact test (MDCT).

Article Synopsis
  • This study aimed to compare the strength and failure types of two types of zirconia crowns: monolithic (second-generation) and bilayered (first-generation), using different types of cement.
  • A total of 36 crowns were tested, divided into groups based on their design (monolith vs. bilayered) and the type of cement used (glass ionomer cement vs. resin cement).
  • The results showed that monolithic zirconia crowns had greater fracture resistance than bilayered ones, and resin cement provided better support compared to glass ionomer cement.*

Aim: To compare marginal bone level (MBL) around the abutments in integrated and conventional reciprocation designs in attachment-retained removable partial prosthesis (A-RPP).

Materials And Methods: Around 14 participants were indiscriminately selected and separated into two groups. For every group, an A-RPP with one of the studied reciprocation types was fabricated and assessed.

Objective: Precision attachments may exert unfavorable stresses on abutments in distal extension bases. This study compared between two reciprocation designs in attachment removable partial dentures (RPDs).

Materials And Methods: Fourteen patients were allocated into two groups.
