Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the diffusion of 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) from resin cement through dentin both affected and unaffected by caries through high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) at two time intervals.
Materials And Methods: Ten freshly extracted restoration-free, caries-free and ten extracted carious human third molar teeth were used in this study. Standardized box-shaped Class I inlay cavities (6 mm long, 3 mm wide, 2 mm deep) were prepared in all teeth with a high-speed handpiece mounted on a standard cavity machine. In teeth affected by caries, after preparation, the remaining carious lesions were removed, with their removal guided by a proprietary caries detector dye. The remaining dentin thickness (RDT) between the pulpal wall of the cavity and the roof of the pulp chamber was measured at multiple points for each tooth so that groups of 10 teeth each were prepared with RDT 1.2 ± 0.5 mm. Lithium disilicate-based ceramic inlays were manufactured to restore the prepared cavities. A polypropylene chamber was attached to the cementoenamel junction of each tooth to contain 1 ml distilled water. Then, ceramic inlays were cemented with chemically polymerized resin cement (Multilink Automix) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Water elutes were analyzed by HPLC at 4.32 minutes and 24 hours. HEMA diffusion amounts were analyzed using two-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD tests (p < 0.05).
Results: HEMA was detected in the pulp chamber elutes of all the teeth. The diffused HEMA amounts were not significantly different between the affected caries and the unaffected groups (p= 0.80) or between time periods (p= 0.44). The carious dentin did not influence the amount of HEMA diffused through the dentin to the pulp space.
Conclusions: The highest amount of eluted HEMA concentration detected was not viewed as critical for pulp tissue since the diffused HEMA amounts were below the level of cytotoxicity, according to the literature.

This study evaluated the influence of six resin composite coating agents on color stability and surface roughness after toothbrushing abrasion. Discs (Ø6 mm x 2 mm) of nanofilled resin composite (Filtek Z350XT) were prepared for application of coating agents (n=10): control (absence), two surface sealants (PermaSeal and BisCover LV), two adhesive systems (Scotchbond Multi-Purpose Adhesive/3M Oral Care and Single Bond Universal), and two modeling liquids (Modeling Resin and Composite Wetting Resin). CIELab*, WID, and color change (ΔEab, ΔE00, and ΔWID) were analyzed at baseline, after finishing and polishing, after application of coating agents, after coffee staining (simulating 30 days and one year of staining), and after toothbrushing abrasion.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the fracture resistance of chairside computer assisted design and computer assisted manufacturing (CAD-CAM) lithium disilicate partial and full-coverage crowns and veneers for maxillary canines.
Methods And Materials: Forty-eight restorations for maxillary right canines (12 per group) were designed as follows: (1) partial crown with finish line in the upper middle third; (2) partial crown with finish line in the lower middle third; (3) traditional labial veneer; and (4) traditional full-coverage crown. Restorations were fabricated out of lithium disilicate (Amber Mill, Hassbio) using a chairside CAD-CAM system (Cerec Dentsply Sirona).

Under current minimally invasive treatment regimes, minor tooth preparation and thinner biomimetic ceramic restoration are used to preserve the restored tooth's vitality, aesthetics, and function. New computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) ceramic-like material are now available. To guarantee longevity, a dental clinician must know these newly launched product's mechanical strength compared to the relatively brittle glass-matrix ceramic.

Objective: Chemicals used during canal disinfection and endodontic sealers have a deleterious effect on dentin bond strength. The aim of this study was to evaluate a novel clinical sequence to improve the resin-dentin microtensile bond strength (μTBS) to endodontically treated teeth.
Materials And Methods: Twenty human molars were distributed in four experimental groups (n = 5, N = 20): C-control group without exposure to any endodontic chemical substances (2.
