The objective of this study was to evaluate the flexural strength of denture base resin reinforced with glass fibers and with a laboratorial composite resin. Group G1 was formed with specimens made of acrylic resin. Group G2 was formed with the same acrylic resin but reinforced with a glass-fiber system, and G3 was reinforced with the composite resin. A flexural strength test was performed in all groups (n=10). The mean value for the G1 was 86.70 MPa +/- 6.48, for G2 it was 86.60 MPa +/- 15.01 and for G3 it was 108.90 + 11.03. The addition of glass fiber did not increase the flexural strength however the use of a resin-based composite produced significant reinforcement.

An important step in the workflow for a complete arch fixed implant-supported prosthesis is the fabrication of a prototype resin prosthesis to allow the patient to visualize the definitive treatment outcome and also to use as an interim prosthesis. Producing a prototype prosthesis with the natural appearance of the gingival color and contour has been challenging. Current methods include painted stains, manually applied pink composite resin or autopolymerizing acrylic resin, and multicolored resin blocks, but these are all relatively expensive, have less than optimal esthetics, and are labor-intensive and time-consuming.

Adhesion within endodontic obturation material and root canal walls improves the efficacy of the endodontic treatment by establishing a barrier that inhibits reinfection and entombs residual bacteria. This study evaluates the push-out bond strength (POBS) of calcium silicate sealers compared to an epoxy-resin-based sealer. A total of 36 extracted mono-radicular teeth were prepared with Pro Taper Ultimate and irrigated with 5.

Objectives This study aimed to compare the shear bond strength of three resin cements (light-cured resin cement, pre-heated composite resin, and dual-cured self-adhesive resin cement) when bonding to lithium disilicate discs. Materials and methods Thirty-six discs made of lithium disilicate were fabricated and etched with 9.5% (HF), and 36 human premolars were collected and immersed in the acrylic molds, then randomly divided into three equal groups (n = 12): Group 1: light-cured resin cement, Group 2: pre-heated resin composite, and Group 3: dual-cured resin cement.

Objectives To assess the influence of cigarette smoke (CS) on the color and surface roughness of 3D printed, milled, and traditionally fabricated provisional crown and bridge (PC&B) materials. Materials and methods 112 disc-shaped samples were made employing four techniques and materials (28 per group) to fabricate PC&B prostheses. Specimens were fabricated using standard protocols, such as 3D printing, milling, conventional bis-acrylic resin, and traditional autopolymerizing polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) resin.

Aim: Percutaneous vertebroplasty is generally considered a safe procedure, however, cases of cardioembolism and cardiac perforation have been reported.
Case Presentation: A 69-year-old woman was referred to our emergency department after an outpatient echocardiogram revealed a "thrombus-like" formation involving the right heart. Two weeks before she had undergone percutaneous vertebroplasty of the third to fifth lumbar vertebrae due to osteoporotic fractures.
