Purpose: To investigate the feasibility of occlusal reconstruction with IPS e.max Press for patients suffering from severely worn dentition, and to summarize the technological experience.
Methods: IPS e.max Press was used to reconstruct occlusion for one patient with severely worn dentition. Provisional restorations were fitted in worn teeth to rehabilitate the vertical dimension and centric relationship almost 3 months before final treatment. Face bow was used to transfer the general information of provisional restorations to articulator, including the plane of occlusion, anatomical outline and intercuspal position of teeth.
Results: After 24 months of follow-up, the masticatory efficiency and facial appearance were improved significantly, and TMJ disorder was not observed. The patient was satisfied with the prostheses.
Conclusions: IPS e.max Press is an effective and reliable treatment of occlusal reconstruction.The short term effect is promoting. Supported by Clinical Medical Research Fund of Bureau of Science and Technology, Jiangsu Province(SBL201230169).

Background: The present study assessed the impact of thermomechanical aging on the marginal fit of hybrid ceramic, reinforced composite resin, and lithium disilicate ceramic.
Methods: Eighteen human upper first premolars freshly extracted for orthodontic purposes were used to fabricate 18 CAD-CAM veneers and divided into three groups based on materials used: group H (n=6): hybrid ceramics (Vita Enamic), group R (n=6): reinforced composite resin (Brilliant crios), and group L (n=6): lithium disilicate ceramic (IPS e-max CAD). Each material's cementation procedure was carried out according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how polishing and bleaching affect the brightness, color, whiteness, and translucency of different CAD/CAM dental materials after they were stained with coffee.
- Various treatments were applied to disks made from specific materials, with measurements taken before and after coffee exposure, and the results were analyzed statistically.
- Ultimately, the findings indicated that the effectiveness of these treatments in restoring desired properties varies based on the specific material used.

Background: Two intra-coronal preparation designs with varying extensions of cuspal coverage can perform differently regarding their fracture resistance against introral forces.
Methods: Two materials (IPS e-max CAD [EX], VITA ENAMIC [EN]), and two different preparation designs (EX-D1), (EX-D2), (EN-D1), and (EN-D2) were investigated to compare their fracture resistance. A total of 40 (n = 40) caries free human mandibular molars were used.
