This clinical article describes and discusses the use of preheated nanohybrid resin composite for the placement of direct restorations and luting of porcelain laminate veneers. Two clinical cases are presented. Preheating hybrid composite decreases its viscosity and film thickness offering the clinician improved handling. Preheating also facilitates the use of nanohybrid composite as a veneer luting material with relatively low polymerisation shrinkage and coefficient of thermal expansion compared to currently available resin luting cements.

HEMA-free versus HEMA-containing adhesive systems: a systematic review.
Syst Rev
January 2025
Conservative Dentistry Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University, Mansoura, Postal Code, 35516, Egypt.
Background: Hydrophilic monomer 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA)-free adhesive systems are gaining increasing popularity nowadays. Although the addition of HEMA to dental adhesives improves dentin wettability and resin diffusion into demineralized collagen fibrils, HEMA's high hydrophilicity can lead to hydrolytic degradation of the adhesive interface. Thus, HEMA-free adhesive systems have been developed.

Introduction And Aims: This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of 3 bleaching methods on stained polymer-based CAD/CAM blocks in terms of surface roughness, hardness stability, discolouration reduction and susceptibility to re-staining following bleaching.
Methods: Two-mm-thick slabs (N = 128) were prepared from CeraSmart (CS), Grandio Blocs (GB), Vita Enamic (VE), and direct resin composite GrandioSO (RC). Coffee-stained specimens (n = 8) were subdivided into bleaching (BL) groups: in-office bleaching (OB), home bleaching (HB), whitening mouthwash (MW), and a control group with 14-day storage in water (CL).
Digitized thermo-responsive shape memory matrix band for tooth restorations.

Direct resin restoration has been widely used to restore the tooth defect for its convenience and minimal invasion. However, the accuracy of the final contour of class II restoration is often unpredictable and quite technique-sensitive due to the limitation of traditional matrix band system. In this study, the authors developed a novel matrix band system using shape memory polymer (SMP), which possessed two reversible shapes including digitized permanent shape to reproduce anatomical proximal contour and programmable temporary shape for clinical practice and reservation.

Objectives: Highly translucent yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) has become more popular due to its enhanced aesthetics. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of traditional air abrasion and a new etching and cleaning agent, Multi Etchant, on the mechanical performance, optical properties, and bond strength of highly translucent zirconia.
Methods: Specimens of 6YSZ, 5YSZ, 4YSZ&5YSZ, and conventional 3YSZ were fabricated and underwent different surface treatments, including as milled, air abrasion, and Multi Etchant.
Effect of Cervical Margin Relocation With Different Injectable Restorative Materials on Fracture Resistance of Molars Received MOD CAD/CAM Onlay Restorations.

Operative Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University, Mansoura, Egypt.
Objective: To investigate the effect of cervical margin relocation with four different injectable restorative materials on the fracture resistance of molars receiving mesio-occluso-distal CAD/CAM nanoceramic onlay restorations.
Materials And Methods: One hundred and five sound mandibular molars received a standardized mesio-occluso-distal onlay preparation, with cervical margins located 2 mm apical to the cemento-enamel junction. The molars were randomly allocated into five groups (n = 21) according to the cervical relocating materials used: Group I had no cervical margin relocation; Group II used a highly viscous glass ionomer; Group III used a highly-filled injectable resin composite; Group IV used a resin-modified glass ionomer; and Group V used a bioactive ionic resin.
