Influence of Zirconia/Glass Veneer Thickness and Implant Abutment Material on the Final Shade of Implant Restorations.

Background: Achieving an optimal shade match for these restorations is crucial for aesthetic outcomes. The thickness of zirconia/glass veneer and the choice of implant abutment material play vital roles in determining the final shade of implant restorations.

Materials And Methods: This study investigated the influence of zirconia/glass veneer thickness (0.

Investigating the Long-Term Success and Complication Rates of Zirconia Dental Implants: A Prospective Clinical Study.

Unlabelled: This study addresses the durability and complications of zirconia dental implants through a prospective clinical investigation. Zirconia implants are increasingly utilized in dental implantation, and a comprehensive understanding of their long-term performance is essential.

Background: Zirconia dental implants have gained attention due to their biocompatibility and aesthetics.

Assessment of Patient Satisfaction and Treatment Outcomes in Digital Smile Design vs. Conventional Smile Design: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Background: The esthetics of a smile holds significant importance in an individual's self-esteem and overall quality of life. In the realm of cosmetic dentistry, smile design has traditionally relied on conventional methods, but recent advances in technology have introduced digital smile design (DSD) as a promising alternative.

Materials And Methods: In this randomized controlled trial, 150 adult patients seeking smile enhancement procedures were enrolled and randomly assigned to one of two groups: the DSD group or the conventional smile design group.

Expression of p63 and Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen in Oral Submucous Fibrosis.

Aim: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) may be preceded by potentially malignant disorders such as oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF). p63 can detect genetic changes in OSMF and it facilitates early detection of malignant transformation, whereas proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is a marker of proliferation and may prove to be a useful objective indicator of the biological behavior of various tumors. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression and pattern of the intensity of p63 protein and PCNA in normal oral mucosa and OSMF using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and to correlate the expression of these biomarkers.
