The aim of this study is to investigate the internal morphology of all-ceramic prostheses before seating. Micro X-ray CT was used to inspect three dimensionally the locations and sizes of pores within experimentally fabricated all-ceramic crowns as well as measure the veneer and core thickness. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to examine the fracture sites of clinically failed prostheses. Micro X-ray CT analysis revealed the distribution patterns of pores within the all-ceramic prostheses, and SEM fractographic analysis indicated a strong relationship between the existence of pores and crack propagation. Therefore, micro X-ray CT is a useful tool for nondestructive inspection of the internal morphology of all-ceramic prostheses to identify the critical defects before seating.

Purpose: To analyze the repair effect of glass fiber post combined with zirconia all ceramic crown in tooth defects and explore the relevant factors affecting the therapeutic effect.
Methods: A total of 100 patients(142 teeth) with dental defects admitted to Shandong Provincial Chronic Disease Hospital from January 2018 to January 2021 were selected as the study subjects. They were divided into an experimental group (glass fiber post combined with zirconia all ceramic crown restoration) with 70 patients(98 teeth) and the control group (metal post combined with zirconium dioxide all ceramic crown) with 30 patients (44 teeth).

Objectives: To assess the clinical performance of tooth-supported 3-unit fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) made from shade-graded monolithic 5Y-PSZ (partly stabilized zirconia) zirconia in terms of survival rate and the quality of restorations based on modified FDI criteria over three-years.
Materials And Methods: High-translucent shade-graded monolithic zirconia (Lava Esthetic, Solventum Dental Solutions) was used to manufacture maxillary or mandibular three-unit FDPs in the posterior region (N = 22) employing subtractive milling system (Amann Girrbach). All FDPs were bonded with a universal resin cement (Rely X Universal, Solventum Dental Solutions) and evaluated 4 weeks after cementation (baseline) and after 1, 2, and 3 years.

Background: Pulp canal occlusion (PCO) increases the difficulty of root canal treatment as well as tooth preservation and restoration. This is the first case report of successful localization of a calcified root canal under the guidance of a dynamic navigation system (DNS) for complete root canal retreatment and aesthetic restoration after a failed attempt to locate the calcified root canal with a traditional dental operating microscope (DOM).
Case Presentation: The patient was scheduled for root canal treatment for a labially inclined maxillary central incisor and post-core crown restoration with resin veneers in another hospital, but the calcified root canal could not be located with a microscope, so the patient was referred to our department.

Objectives: The aim of this prospective, multi-center, practice-based cohort study was to analyze factors associated with the success of implant supported all-ceramic single-unit crowns, made by computer-aided-design/computer-aided-manufacturing (CAD-CAM).
Methods: All-ceramic crowns placed in a private practice-based research network (Ceramic Success Analysis, AG Keramik) were analyzed. Data from 567patients with CAD-CAM implant supported all-ceramic crowns placed between 2008-2023 by 54dentists were evaluated.
