Objective: To investigate the chromatic changes of 3 porcelains after firing on titanium.
Method And Materials: Thirty-six veneer crowns were obtained by firing 3 different porcelains to titanium: Ti22 (Noritake), Triceram (Esprident), and Vitatitankeramik (Vita). A single shade was used for each porcelain. Besides the titanium-porcelain specimens, 3 titanium-free controls (one for each porcelain) were obtained. A spectrophotometer was used to measure the color of porcelain facings of the veneer crowns and the porcelain controls. Once the chromatic digital values were recorded, the color differences between the titanium-porcelain samples and the corresponding porcelain controls were computed. The results were statistically analyzed.
Results: The least chromatic difference was observed for Ti22 porcelain, and the greatest difference for Triceram porcelain. Regarding the direction of the chromatic alteration after firing on titanium, very significant differences were found between the porcelains.
Conclusion: Perceivable differences were found between the shade of the porcelain fired to titanium and that of the same porcelain fired alone. No significant differences were found between the 3 porcelains regarding the total chromatic modification.

Purpose: Metal-ceramic screw-retained implant restorations persist as a fundamental choice in specific clinical scenarios. Little is known about the effects of fabrication steps and aging on their structural properties. This study aimed to investigate how laboratory fabrication procedures and thermomechanical loading affect the structural properties of screw-retained metal-ceramic implant restorations.

Purpose: The purpose of this invitro study was to assess the changes in the color attributes of high-translucency (HT) lithium disilicate and zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate in BL3/0M1, A1, A2, and A3 shades during first, second, and third firing cycles.
Materials And Methods: Eighty specimens of two ceramic systems (IPS e.max CAD and Vita Suprinity) in BL3/0M1, A1, A2, and A3 shades, were prepared in thickness of 1 mm (n=10).

Background: The fit of a metal-ceramic restoration is essential to its long-term durability. Regarding marginal and internal fit, there is not enough information about the technologies used in the production of metal-ceramic restorations. The aim of this in vitro study is to compare, both before and after porcelain firing, the marginal, axial, axio-occlusal, and occlusal fit of metal-ceramic restorations manufactured using casting, additive or subtractive computer-aided design, and computer-aided manufacturing techniques (CAD/CAM).

This study aims to compare the roughness between the central and edge points on the porcelain sectional surface of porcelain fused to Co-Cr alloy endocrowns. Utilizing anatomical data from average molar dimensions, a simplified model for the endocrowns was created. Eight porcelain fused to Co-Cr alloy endocrowns were fabricated with an edge thickness of 0.
