An Invitro Study to Evaluate the Retentive Properties of Metal Crowns on Various Surface Roughnesses of Abutments.

Background Restorative dentists frequently deal with the prosthesis coming loose after placing multiple crowns. The luting cement holds indirect restorations to the prepared tooth. However, the success of the restorations is impacted by mastication pressures and other undesired factors.

Comparison of Marginal Accuracy of Interim Restoration Fabricated from Self-cure Composite and Autopolymerizing Acrylic Resin: An Study.

Background And Objectives: One of the important steps toward achieving a successful fixed partial denture treatment is the fabrication of interim restorations with good marginal adaptation. Poor marginal adaptation of the interim restorations will allow ingress of fluids and microorganisms between the restorations and may lead to caries and pulpitis. The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the marginal accuracy of interim restorations made from two polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and two bis-acryl materials.
