Bone tissue engineering is aimed to repair such defects using biomimicking scaffolds and stem cells. Electrospinning allows the fabrication of biocompatible, biodegradable, and strengthened scaffolds for bone regeneration.

Purpose: This in vitro study assessed the marginal and internal adaptation and fracture strength of teeth restored with lithium disilicate (LD) ceramics and BioHPP monolithic crowns.
Material And Methods: Twenty-four extracted premolars were prepared for complete coverage crowns and divided into 2 groups to receive pressed IPS e.
