The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fitness of zirconia cores according to the amount and treated surface of glass infiltration. A maxillary right central incisor customized abutment was milled to have a 6° slope and a 1 mm deep chamfer margin and was manufactured in an intaglio mold using silicone impression material. Fifty-six stone dies were produced by injecting high strength dental stone into a mold and then zirconia cores were milled with CAD/CAM systems. The control group (Control) used non glass-infiltrated zirconia, and the experiment group was divided by one with the glass and distilled water ratio of 1:300 and the other with the ratio of 1:100. Each group was divided into subgroups by glasstreated surface: external surface infiltration, internal surface infiltration, and both surface infiltration. The zirconia cores sintered after glass infiltration were attached to the stone dies and then cut. Afterwards, the absolute marginal discrepancies and internal gaps of the buccal and lingual sides were measured. The buccal absolute marginal discrepancies and lingual internal gaps were influenced by the glass infiltration amount (p < 0.05); while fitness of zirconia core were not affected by the glasstreated surface (p > 0.05). As a result of the above experiments, the glass-infiltrated zirconia cores showed a clinically acceptable fitness, which is within 120 μm. This means that glass infiltration can be clinically used.

Background: The existing literature predominantly examines post and core assessments post-cementation, neglecting the critical pre-cementation phase. Research on the clinical acceptance of dental posts received from dental laboratories before cementation is notably lacking. This study investigates the percentage of zirconia and metal dental posts that are deemed suitable for cementation by clinicians, among the total received from the dental laboratory.

Retreatment and aesthetic restoration of maxillary incisor with calcified root canal using a dynamic navigation system: a case report.

BMC Oral Health

November 2024

Department of Stomatology, The First Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital, No.28 Fuxing Road, Haidian District, Beijing, 100853, China.

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.

Zr(μ-O)(μ-OH) node cores are indispensable building blocks for almost all zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks. Consistent with the insulating nature of zirconia, they are generally considered electronically inert. Contrasting this viewpoint, we present spectral measurements and calculations indicating that emission from photoexcited NU-601, a six-connected Zr-based MOF, comes from both linker-centric locally excited and linker-to-node charge-transfer (CT) states.

The results on zirconia-amine bifunctional modification of hierarchically porous silica monoliths for continuous-flow processes ar presented. The study reports the synthesis and properties of the modified porous monoliths and their performance in the tandem process of deacetalization-Knoevenagel condensation reaction. The properties of the materials were studied by thermal analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, XRF and nitrogen adsorption.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to compare the fracture strength and modes of tooth post-cores made from modified polyetheretherketone (PEEK) using CAD-CAM technology against other custom post-cores like zirconia, metal, and glass fiber.
  • - Researchers used sixty human mandibular first premolars, dividing them into six groups (each with 10 teeth) to test and measure fracture strength by applying force at a specific angle and analyzing the results statistically.
  • - Results indicated a significant difference in fracture resistance; zirconia post-cores performed best compared to various PEEK-based groups, with zirconia showing a higher rate of repairable failure than others.
