Aim: The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of the milling mode and margin defining method on the marginal and internal adaptation of digitally designed and fabricated ceramic veneers.
Materials And Methods: Forty extracted central incisors were prepared for ceramic veneers. The veneers were categorized into four groups (n = 10) based on the milling mode (fine or extra-fine) and design (automatic or manual defining of cervical and incisal margins). The veneers were cemented to the teeth using resin cement and then polished. After cementation, the teeth were embedded in clear polyester resin, then cut into three sections. Absolute marginal gap at the cervical margins (AMGC), marginal gap at the incisal (MGI) and cervical (MGC) margins, and internal gap (IG) at the axial wall were evaluated using a scanning electron microscope. Two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and t tests were used (α = 0.05) for the statistical analysis.
Results: The margin defining method affected the adaptation of the internal and incisal margin; the automatic (software) margin defining method resulted in a smaller MGI (P = 0.038) and IG (P = 0.009) than the manual defining method.
Conclusion: The type of milling mode did not affect the marginal gap. The margin defining method affected the marginal gap at the incisal margin and the internal gaps. (Int J Comput Dent 2022;25(3):277-285; doi: 10.3290/j.ijcd.b2588153).

Statement Of Problem: Comprehensive data are needed on the performance of chemically activated, chairside hard reline materials when used with computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) milled polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) denture bases and conventionally processed bases. This lack of data affects decisions regarding the chairside reline material to be used for improving the fit and retention of relined complete dentures.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate and compare the shear bond strength (SBS) of 3 chemically activated, chairside hard reline materials on CAD-CAM milled and conventional heat-polymerized PMMA denture bases.
Mode-locked lasers are of interest for applications such as biological imaging, nonlinear frequency conversion, and single-photon generation. In the infrared, chip-integrated mode-locked lasers have been demonstrated through integration of laser diodes with low-loss photonic circuits. However, additional challenges, such as a higher propagation loss and smaller alignment tolerances, have prevented the realization of such lasers in the visible range.

Although silver is known for its antibacterial activity, its exact mode of action remains unclear. In our previous work, we described AgNbO nanoparticles (AgNbO NPs) prepared using a ceramic method, followed by high-energy and low-energy ball-milling processes, which exhibited antimicrobial activity with negligible release of Ag in deionized water. Here, we investigated thoroughly the mode of action of these AgNbO NPs against .

Current research uses a novel recycled milled carbon (rmCF), recycled milled Kevlar (rmKF), and innovative Hybrid fillers (rmHF) of both to increase glass/epoxy composite laminate delamination resistance. This study examines how crack propagation and fibre orientation affect laminated composite delamination fracture toughness. Recycled milled Fillers in the interlayer increase stiffness, delamination resistance, and fracture toughness by increasing the energy needed to crack the interlaminar domain.

Light-matter interactions between plasmonic and excitonic modes have attracted considerable interest in recent years. A major challenge in achieving strong coupling is the identification of suitable metallic nanostructures that combine tight field confinement with sufficiently low losses. Here, we report on a room-temperature study on the interaction of tungsten disulfide (WS) monolayer excitons with a hybrid plasmon polariton (HPP) mode supported by nanogroove grating structures milled into single-crystalline silver flakes.
