Two series of implanted conical, polyethylene Ring cups were studied clinically and radiographically. In one series the cups were uncemented while in the second cement was used. The results using cemented conical cups were then compared with results using a cemented cup of hemispherical design to study the effect of cup geometry. At 7-8 years a total of 3.8% of the cemented conical series and 2.9% of the uncemented were revised for aseptic loosening. At 9 years survivorship was identical. Migration of the sockets occurred in approximately 25% of both series and was directly related to cup cover of less than 80% (P < 0.001). The series of cemented hemispherical cups were reviewed after an identical period. Although the numbers revised for loosening were comparable in this and the cemented conical group, radiological migration was statistically greater in the latter (P < 0.001). Alternative methods of socket preparation and cement technique were thought to be the most likely explanation for the observed differences.

Objectives: The study investigated the influence of retention grooves and material thickness of the retainer wing on the retentive strength of resin-bonded attachments (RBAs).
Materials And Methods: Sixty-four extracted human molars were used. Each tooth received a preparation limited to the enamel for the retainer wings of the RBAs.

Objective: To assess the clinical performance of monolithic screw-retained implant-supported zirconia crowns (MSI) bonded or mechanically retained on prefabricated Ti-bases using a complete digital workflow.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent single dental implant procedures between January 2017 and May 2018. Inclusion criteria were: patients over 18 years of age; implants placed in posterior sites; MSI on prefabricated Ti-base realized by using a complete digital workflow; a minimum follow-up period of 2 years.

Statement Of Problem: The biomechanical stability of the implant-prosthesis assembly and its maintenance under function is a determining factor in the success of implant prosthesis rehabilitation, but studies of different angular tapers are lacking.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the axial displacement and torque loss of prosthetic abutments with Morse-type connections of different angular tapers after thermomechanical cycling by using microcomputed tomography (µCT) and a digital torque wrench.
Material And Methods: Eighteen Ø3.

Reinforced concrete structures are prone to the corrosion of steel bars when exposed to chloride-rich environments, which can severely impact their durability. To address this issue, a comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing chloride ion diffusion in concrete is essential. This paper provides a summary of recent domestic and foreign research on chloride ion transport in concrete, focusing on six key factors: water-binder ratio, additive content, crack width, ambient temperature, relative humidity, and dry-wet cycles.
