Article Synopsis
  • The research investigates how oxidation heat treatment (OHT) and dual opaquing techniques affect the bond strength between metal and ceramic in dental materials.
  • Eighty samples were created, divided into two main groups based on oxidation treatment, and further categorized by single or double layers of opaque porcelain, followed by flexural strength testing.
  • Results showed that the combination of OHT and double layering (group A2) resulted in the highest bond strength, highlighting the significance of these techniques in enhancing ceramo-metal restorations.

Background This in vitro study aimed to assess the vertical disparities in the positioning of complete crown castings when different quantities of cement were used and to determine the optimal amount of cement for cementation while minimizing any marginal discrepancies. Methodology A total of 60 ideal nickel-chromium (Ni-Cr) crown castings were divided into three groups of experimental volumes of glass ionomer cement, with 20 castings in each group. Group I had completely filled volume with cement, group II had it half-filled, and group III had brushed up cement internally.
