The results showed that the CAD/CAM materials tested have differences in their microstructure, elemental composition and mechanical properties....
The RBCs tested showed significant differences in mechanical properties and thus differences in clinical performance are anticipated. RBCs with increased filler loading had the most favorable combinat...
This study aimed to investigate the effects of new and used burs on CAD-CAM PMMA resin color changes following thermocycling....
Twenty disk-shaped specimens (10 × 2 mm) were made using a single brand of CAD-CAM polymethyl methacrylate resin (Polident) for the color test. Group N consisted of half of the specimens that were mac...
The ∆E* value of specimens (2.057) milled with the used bur was higher than those of specimens milled with the new bur (0.340), but this value is within clinically acceptable limits. After thermocycli...
Thermocycling process have an effect on the mean ∆E values of specimens milled with the used carbide bur, but these ∆E* values were not statistically significant....
The color and clinical performance of CAD-CAM restorations may be affected by variations in CAD-CAM milling bur properties, particularly those related to their frequent use....
To evaluate the flexural strength of digitally milled and printed denture base materials....
The materials tested were Lucitone 199 denture base disc (Dentsply Sirona), AvaDent denture base puck (AvaDent), KeyMill denture base disc (Keystone), Lucitone digital print denture base resin (Dentsp...
The milled materials exhibited higher flexural strength than the printed materials. Thermocycling and fatigue reduce the flexural strengths of printed and milled materials. The repaired groups exhibit...
The milled denture base materials showed higher flexural strength than the printed ones....
The antimicrobial effect of prosthetic materials treated with chitosan was systematically reviewed....
The searches were carried out on PubMed/Medline, Scopus, ISI Web of Science, LILACS, Embase, and Open Grey with searches performed in March 2022. Selection of in vitro studies, data extraction and ris...
After evaluating the eligibility criteria, 11 articles were included for the qualitative synthesis. The evaluated prosthetic materials corresponded to PMMA (n=8) and tissue conditioner (n=3). All stud...
Chitosan showed highly antimicrobial activity and was effective when used in prosthetic materials....
To evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of three-dimensional (3D) printed denture base resin incorporating TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs), subjected to a physical ageing process....
Acrylic denture base samples were prepared by a Stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing technique reinforced with different concentrations (0.10, 0.25, 0.50, and 0.75) of silanated TiO...
The addition of TiO...
The outcomes of this study suggested that the incorporation of TiO...
To investigate the wear resistance of conventional, CAD-milled and 3D-printed denture teeth in vitro with simulated aging. To use the collected data to train single time series sample model LSTM and p...
Six denture teeth materials (Three Conventional; Double-cross linked PMMA (G1), Nanohybrid composite (G2), PMMA with microfillers (G3), CAD-milled (G4), two 3D-printed teeth (G5, G6) (Total n = 60) un...
3D printed tooth material (G5) had the lowest wear resistance (59 ± 35.71 μm) whereas conventional PMMA with microfillers (G3) shown the highest wear rate (303 ± 0.06 μm) after 48 months of simulation...
3D printed denture teeth materials showed the lowest wear out of all studied for 48 months simulation. LSTM model was successfully developed to predict wear of various denture teeth. The developed LST...
Calcium silicate-based materials are hydrophilic materials with biocompatibility and bioactivity properties. Despite many advantages, they might present some problems related to discolouration, settin...
The choice of materials for covering plantar orthoses or wearable insoles is often based on their hardness, breathability, and moisture absorption capacity, although more due to professional preferenc...
The temperature of three materials for covering plantar orthoses was analyzed in a sample of 36 subjects (15 men and 21 women, aged 24.6 ± 8.2 years, mass 67.1 ± 13.6 kg, and height 1.7 ± 0.09 m). Tem...
In the PE copolymer (material 1), temperature increases between 1.07 and 1.85 °C were found after activity, with these differences being statistically significant in all regions of interest (...
PE foam lining materials, with lower density or an open-cell structure, would be preferred for controlling temperature rise in the lining/footbed interface and providing better thermal comfort for use...
Ex vivo hemocompatibility testing is a vital element of preclinical assessment for blood-contacting medical devices. Current approaches are resource intensive; thus, we investigated the feasibility of...
