RESUMEN

To evaluate the effect of build direction, post-polymerization time, and aging on the fracture resistance, failure mode, margin quality and Marginal (MD) and Internal Discrepancies (ID), and degree of conversion of tridimensional (3D) printed provisional crowns using the liquid crystal display technique (LCD). A left mandibular first molar was prepared and scanned. After, a full crown was designed (ExoCad) and exported to the LCD-printer software. One hundred and eighty crowns were printed at two build directions (30°, 90°) and post-polymerized for different periods (15, 30, 45 min). Half of the samples were aged (ST) in distilled water (37 °C/90 days). The marginal quality of the crowns was evaluated by the Schriwer method under a stereomicroscope (40x). The replica technique was used to measure the MD and ID and measured under a stereomicroscope (10x), through 20 reference points defined in 5 regions: Occlusal (O), Cusp (CP), Axial (AX), Chamfer (CH), and Finish Line (F). After, the crowns were cemented onto the respective dies using temporary cement and submitted to compression test (ISO150, 1 mm/min, 100 kgf).The failure mode was classified by Burke's fracture mode. The degree of conversion was evaluated through Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. The data (µm) of MD and ID and fracture resistance (N) were subjected to ANOVA (3 factors) and Tukey's test (5%); Weibull analysis was also performed for fracture resistance data (N). For MD, ID and fracture resistance ANOVA revealed that all factors (P < .001) were significant. For aged groups, the crowns printed at 30° showed lower MD (Tukey). The O_90_30 min (172.13A µm) and O_90_15 min (170.20A µm) groups showed the highest ID values. Higher resistance values were observed for the 30_45 min (844.30A N), 30_30 min (835.35A N), and 90_30 min (820.62A N) groups (Tukey). In the margin analysis, 98.6% of the crowns printed at 30° showed smooth margins without defects. The most prevalent fracture mode (41.7%) was Burke type 5. The degree of conversion (DC) increased with increasing post-polymerization time and aging. Printing provisional crowns at 30° provided lower crown MD and ID, as well as higher fracture resistance. A post-polymerization time of 30 min resulted in higher crown fracture resistance, while aging reduced the resistance of the crowns.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To assess vertical and horizontal fit, screw removal torque, and stress analysis (considered biomechanical aspects) of full-arch implant frameworks manufactured in Ti-6Al-4V through milling, and additive manufacturing Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) and Electron Beam Melting (EBM), and the effect of the thermo-mechanical treatment Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) as a post-treatment after manufacturing. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Maxillary full-arch implant frameworks were made by milling, DMLS, and EBM. The biomechanical assessments were screw removal torque, strain-gauge analyses, and vertical and horizontal marginal fits. The vertical fit was assessed by the single-screw test and with all screws tightened. All frameworks were submitted to a standardized HIP cycle (920°C, 1000 bar pressure, 2 h), and the tests were repeated (α = 0.05). RESULTS: At the initial time, milled frameworks presented higher screw removal torque values, and DMLS and EBM frameworks presented lower levels of strain. Using the single-screw test, milled and DMLS frameworks presented higher vertical fit values, and with all screws tightened and horizontally, higher fit values were found for milled frameworks, followed by DMLS and EBM. After HIP, milling and EBM frameworks presented higher screw removal torque values; the lowest strain values were found for EBM. Using the single-screw test, milled and DMLS frameworks presented higher vertical fit values, and with all screws tightened and horizontally no differences were found. CONCLUSIONS: DMLS and EBM full-arch frameworks presented adequate values of screw removal torque, strain, and marginal fit, although the worst values of marginal fit were found for EBM frameworks. The HIP cycle enhanced the screw removal torque of milled and EBM frameworks and reduced the strain values of milled frameworks. The HIP represents a reliable post-treatment for Ti-6Al-4V dental prostheses produced by milling and EBM technologies.

RESUMEN

Abstract Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) technology allows the use of different manufacturing techniques. This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the marginal fit of temporary restorations manufactured using conventional chairside methods, milling, and three-dimensional printing. Fifteen 3-element temporary restorations specimens were produced and categorized into three groups: non-digital, obtained using the conventional chairside method (GC); milled (GM); and three-dimensionally printed (GP). Marginal fit was assessed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) performed under two conditions: one with only the central screw tightened, and the other with all three screws tightened. Horizontal misfit values were categorized as over-, equal-, and under-extended and qualitatively analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed using the Tukey-Kramer test (α=0.05). In the vertical assessment, three-dimensionally printed restorations demonstrated greater misfit than restorations obtained by milling and the conventional chairside method (P<0.05). In the horizontal assessment, the misfit in the GP group was significantly higher than that in the GM and GC groups. Restorations obtained using the conventional chairside method and milled provisional restorations showed more favorable results than three-dimensionally printed restorations.

RESUMEN

Objective:This study evaluated the effect of immediate dentin sealing on the marginal adaptation of lithium disilicate overlays with three different types of resin-luting agents: preheated composite, dual-cure adhesive resin, and flowable composite. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight maxillary first premolars of similar size were prepared with a butt joint preparation design. The teeth were separated into two primary groups, each with twenty-four teeth: Group DDS: Delay dentin sealing (non-IDS) teeth were not treated. Group IDS: dentin sealing was applied immediately after teeth preparation. Each group was subsequently separated into three separate subgroups. Subgroups (DDS+Phc, IDS+Phc): cemented with preheated composite (Enamel plus HRi, Micerium, Italy), Subgroups (DDS+Dcrs, IDS+Dcrs): cemented with dual-cured resin cement (RelyX Ultimate, 3M ESPE, Germany) and Subgroups (DDS+Fc, IDS+Fc): Cemented with flowable composite (Filtek supreme flowable, 3M ESPE, USA). Using a digital microscope with a magnification of 230x, the marginal gap was measured before and after cementation at four different locations from each surface of the tooth, and the mean of measurements was calculated and analyzed statistically using the independent t-test, one-way ANOVA test, Bonferroni correction at a significance level of 0.05. Results: The samples that were immediately sealed with dentin bonding agent showed lower marginal gaps than delayed dentin sealing, both pre-and post-cementation for all subgroups, with a statistically significant difference (p˂0.01). The marginal gap was significantly lower in the IDS+Fc (48.888 ±5.5 µm) followed by the IDS+Dcrs group (53.612 ±5.8 µm) and IDS+Phc (79.19 9±6.9 µm) respectively, while the largest marginal gaps were observed in the DDS+Phc group (86.505 ±5.4 µm). Conclusion: Generally, the teeth with IDS showed better marginal adaptation than teeth without IDS. The marginal gap was smaller with flowable composite and dual-cure resin cement than with preheated composite (AU)

Objetivo:Esse estudo avaliou o efeito do selamento imediato da dentina na adaptação marginal de overlays em dissilicato de lítio com três tipos diferentes de agentes de cimentação resinosos: resina composta pré-aquecida, adesivo resinoso dual e resina fluida. Materiais e métodos: Quarenta e oito primeiros pré-molares maxilares com tamanho similar foram preparados com término em ombro. O dente foi separado em dois grupos primários, cada um com vinte e quatro dentes: Grupo DDS: retardado selamento da dentina (non-IDS) dente não foi tratado. Grupo IDS: selamento dentinário foi aplicado imediatamente após a preparação do dente. Cada grupo foi separado de modo subsequente em três subgrupos. Subgrupo (DDS+Phc, IDS+Phc): cimentado com resina pré-aquecida (Enamel plus HRi, Micerium, Italy), Subgrupo (DDS+Dcrs, IDS+Dcrs): cimentado com cimento resinoso dual (RelyX Ultimate, 3M ESPE, Germany) e Subgrupo (DDS+Fc, IDS+Fc): cimentado com resina fluida (Filtek supreme flowable, 3M ESPE, USA). Usando um microscópio digital com magnificação de 230x, o gap marginal foi medido antes e após a cimentação em quatro diferentes localizações de cada superfície do dente e a média das medidas foi calculada e estatisticamente analisada através do uso do teste ANOVA um-fator e teste independente de Tukey e correção Bonferroni com nível de significância de 0,05. Resultado: As amostras que foram imediatamente seladas com agente adesivo dentinário apresentaram menores gaps marginais do que o selamento dentinário retardado, ambos pré e pós cimentação para todos os subgrupos apresentaram diferença estatística significante (p˂0.01). O gap marginal foi significativamente menor para IDS+Fc (48.888 ±5.5 µm) acompanhado do IDS+Dcrs group (53.612 ±5.8 µm) e IDS+Phc (79.19 9 ±6.9 µm) respectividamente, enquanto o maior gap marginal foi observado no grupo DDS+Phc (86.505 ±5.4 µm). Conclusão:Geralmente, o dente com IDS apresentou melhor adaptação marginal do que o dente sem IDS. O gap marginal foi menor com resina fluida e cimento resinoso dual do que com a resina composta pré-aquecida (AU)

RESUMEN

Aim: To evaluate the influence of cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) coping fabrication methods and ceramic application on the marginal and internal fit of metal-ceramic crowns. Methods: Co-Cr copings for metal-ceramic crowns were prepared by lost wax casting or CAD-CAM machining of sintered blocks. The fit was analyzed using the silicone replica technique at four assessment points: marginal gap (MG), axial wall (AW), axio-occlusal (AO) angle, and central occlusal (CO) wall. After the initial analysis, the copings were ceramic-veneered with the layering technique, and the fit was again determined. Data were statistically analyzed by paired and unpaired Student's-t test (α=0.05). Results: Marginal and internal fit before ceramic application according to the coping manufacturing method showed significant differences only at CO (p < 0.001), with milled copings (137.98±16.71 µm) showing higher gap values than cast copings (112.86±8.57 µm). For cast copings, there were significant differences at MG (before 109.13±8.79 µm; after 102.78±7.18 µm) and CO (before 112.86±8.57 µm; after 104.07±10.63 µm) when comparing the fit before and after ceramic firing. For milled copings, there was significant difference only at AO (before 116.39±9.64 µm; after 108.54±9.26 µm). Conclusion: This study demonstrated that the coping fabrication method influenced the internal fit. Ceramic firing maintained or improved the fit of the metal-ceramic crowns. The marginal discrepancy of all restorations, before and after ceramic firing, can be considered clinically acceptable

RESUMEN

Aim: To evaluate the occlusal and internal marginal adaptation of inlay restorations made of different materials, using CAD-CAM. Methods: Preparations were made for MOD inlays of one-third intercuspal width and 4 mm depth in 30 third human molars. The teeth were restored using CAD-CAM materials (n=10) of nanoceramic resin (Lava Ultimate), polymer-infiltrated ceramic network (VITA ENAMIC), or lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS e.max CAD). The specimens were cemented with dual resin cement and sectioned at the center of the restoration, after which the two halves were evaluated, and photographed The occlusal and internal discrepancy (µm) was determined at five points: cavosurface angle of the occlusal-facial wall (CA-O); center of the facial wall (FW); faciopulpal angle (FPA); center of the pulpal wall (PW); and center of the lingual wall (LW). The data were submitted to the Kruskal-Wallis and the Dunn tests (α=0.05). Results: No difference was observed among the materials regarding the occlusal discrepancy at the CA-O, FPA, or PW internal points. The e.max CAD measurement at FW showed larger internal discrepancy than that of Lava (p=0.02). The internal discrepancy at LW was greater for e.max CAD than VITA ENAMIC (p=0.02). Conclusion: Lithium disilicate glass-ceramic presented greater internal discrepancy in relation to the surrounding walls of the inlay preparations

RESUMEN

Abstract Objective: To evaluate the effect of two types of light-curing units (second and third generations) and two types of bulk-fill composite resins with different photoinitiators - Tetric N-Ceram Bulk Fill (TNCB) and Xtra Fil (XTF) on gap formation at the gingival margins of Cl II restorations. Material and Methods: Fifty-six standard Cl II cavities were prepared on the mesial and distal surfaces of premolar teeth, with the gingival margin of the cavities 1 mm apical to the CEJ. The samples were randomly assigned to two groups based on the composite resin type and two subgroups based on the light-curing unit type and restored. After 5000 rounds of thermocycling, gingival margin gap in each sample was measured in µm under an electron microscope at ×2000 magnification. Data were analyzed by two-way ANOVA and Tukey tests (α=0.05). Results: Marginal gaps of TNCB composite resin were significantly smaller than those of XTF composite resin (p<0.001). There were no significant differences between the two light-curing units in each group (p=0.887 with XTF and p=0.999 with TNCB). Conclusion: The gaps at gingival margins of Cl II cavities with TNCB bulk-fill composite were smaller than XTF composite resin. Both composite resins can be cured with both the second- and third-generation LEDs (AU).

RESUMEN

A partir dos avanços da tecnologia CAD/CAM na Odontologia, observa-se a crescente utilização da manufatura aditiva na confecção de peças protéticas. Este trabalho propões a avaliação da acurácia interna e linha de cimentação de endocrowns produzidas através de manufatura aditiva e subtrativa. Para isso foi produzido um modelo mestre preparado para coroa endocrown, o qual foi posteriormente escaneado para desenho e fabricação das restaurações, segundo sua manufatura: aditiva (n=14) e subtrativa (n=14). As endocrowns tiveram sua parte interna escaneadas e através de software de inspeção foram comparadas as diferenças entre o projeto (CAD) e a restauração manufaturada, com a distribuição no interior de cada espécime de 90 pontos de aferição equidistantes. Seus respectivos valores de desvio foram utilizados para o cálculo de um valor eficaz (root mean square - RMS). Além disso, foi mensurada a desadaptação entre as endocrowns e modelo mestre, mediante a técnica da réplica de silicone digital, com aferição da linha de cimentação em pontos padronizados e distribuídos de forma equidistantes na região marginal, axial e pulpar, bem como a mensuração da linha de cimentação absoluta. Os dados da veracidade/acurácia interna passaram por teste de normalidade e comparação estatística pelo teste t student não pareado (α=0,05). Os resultados para veracidade interna RMS (Impresso 49.6032 µm ± 3.8917 e fresado 48.5554µm ± 2.2992) não demonstraram diferença estatística significante entre os grupos (p valor >0.05), entretanto sob avaliação qualitativa em gráfico de cores, houve distorções entre as peças produzidas e o projeto em software CAD, com padrões de distorção distintos segundo o tipo de manufatura. Quanto aos resultados da linha de cimentação, os valores de cada região passaram por teste de normalidade e comparação pelo teste t student não pareado (α=.05). Sem diferença estatística (p valor >0.05) na região marginal (impresso 52.9121 µm ± 10.8946 e fresado 61.8303 µm ± 13.4616) e linha de cimentação absoluta (impresso 84.642µm ± 8.0161 e fresado 89.1016µm ± 10.7006.). Contudo nos resultados da linha de cimentação em região axial (impresso 78.2094µm ± 10.5483 e fresado 95.3686µm ± 9.550), bem como região pulpar (impresso 160.9635µm ± 18.3995 e fresado 131.11µm ± 23.7442), houve diferença estatística significante entre os grupos (p < 0,05). Conclui-se, portanto, com relação aos valores gerais, tais como a linha de cimentação absoluta e veracidade interna, que não houve diferença estatística significante entre as duas manufaturas. Todavia, quanto a avaliações locais da linha de cimentação, o grupo impresso apresentou os melhores resultados em região axial, o grupo fresado em região pulpar e ambos os grupos com resultados semelhantes estatisticamente para região marginal.

Following the advances in CAD/CAM technology in dentistry and the increasing use of additive manufacturing in prosthetic dentistry, this study proposes the evaluation of the trueness and cementation line adaptation of endocrowns produced through additive and subtractive manufacturing. A master model prepared for endocrown and scanned for design and fabrication of restorations, according to their manufacture type: additive (n=14) and subtractive (n=14). The endocrowns had their internal area scanned and, through an inspection software, the differences between the design (CAD) and the manufactured restoration were compared, based by the distribution in each specimen of 90 equidistant measurement points. And their respective deviation values were used for the calculation of Root Mean Square (RMS). In addition, the misfit between the endocrowns and the master model was measured using the digital silicone replica technique, and the cementation line measured at standardized and equidistant points in marginal, axial, and pulp regions. As well as the measurement of the absolute cementation line. The trueness data underwent a normality test and statistical comparison by the unpaired student t test (α=.05). The results for RMS internal trueness (Printed 49.6032 µm ± 3.8917 and milled 48.5554 µm ± 2.2992) did not show a statistically significant difference between the groups (p value >0.05), however under qualitative evaluation in a color map, there are distortions between the crowns produced and the design in CAD software, following different patterns according to the manufacture type. As for the results of the cementation line, the data of each region underwent a normality test and comparison by the unpaired t student test (α=.05). No statistical difference (p value >0.05) in the marginal region (printed 52.9121 µm ± 10.8946 and milled 61.8303 µm ± 13.4616) and absolute cementation line (printed 84.642µm ± 8.0161 and milled 89.1016 µm ± 10.7006.) were observed. However, in the results of the cementation line at the axial region (printed 78.2094µm ± 10.5483 and milled 95.3686µm ± 9.550), as well the pulp region (printed 160.9635µm ± 18.3995 and milled 131.11µm ± 23.7442), there was a statistically significant difference between the groups (p < 0.05). This study concludes that in relation to the global values, such as the absolute cementation line and internal trueness, that there was no statistically significant difference between the two manufacturing types. However, regarding the local assessments of the cementation line, the printed group presented the best results in the axial region, the milled group in the pulp region, and both groups with statistically similar results for the marginal region.

RESUMEN

The clinical success of tooth-colored indirect restorations has been confirmed in several studies. However, inlays and onlays restorations in Class II cavities with deep gingival margins can still be considered a clinical challenge. With the purpose of facilitating the execution of the operative procedures in intrasulcular margins and reducing the risk of restorative failures, the technique of cervical margin relocation has been explored as a noninvasive alternative to surgical crown lengthening. This work aims at discussing through a case report the biomechanical, operative and biological aspects in the treatment of teeth with deep gingival margins. Therefore, given the therapy applied in the clinical case presented, it is concluded that the cervical margin relocation with composite resin is advantageous since it eliminates the need for surgery, allowing the implementation of indirect restorations in fewer clinical sessions, not causing damage to periodontal tissues once it provided good finishing and polishing with the establishment of a correct emergence profile, allowing flawless maintenance of gingival health after one year.

Sucesso clínico das restaurações indiretas livres de metal tem sido confirmado em diversos estudos. No entanto, restaurações parciais indiretas em cavidades do tipo classe II com margens profundas ainda podem ser consideradas um desafio clínico. Com a proposta de facilitar a execução dos procedimentos operatórios em margens intra-sulculares e reduzir a ocorrência de falhas, a técnica de elevação da margem gengival em resina composta tem sido explorada como alternativa não invasiva à cirurgia de aumento de coroa clínica. Este trabalho tem a intenção de discutir através de um relato de caso clínico os aspectos biomecânicos, operatórios e biológicos no tratamento de dentes com margens cervicais profundas. Sendo assim, conclui-se que a técnica de elevação da margem gengival com resina composta é vantajosa, pois elimina a necessidade de cirurgia permitindo a execução de restaurações indiretas em menos sessões clínicas, não gerando danos aos tecidos periodontais, desde que haja um bom acabamento e polimento, com estabelecimento de um correto perfil de emergência.

RESUMEN

Aim: To compare the marginal fit of lithium disilicate CAD/CAM crowns and heat-pressed crowns fabricated using milled wax patterns, and evaluate its effect on stress distribution in implantsupported rehabilitation. Methods: A CAD model of a mandibular first molar was designed, and 16 lithium disilicate crowns (8/group) were obtained. The crown-prosthetic abutment set was evaluated in a scanning electron microscopy. The mean misfit for each group was recorded and evaluated using Student's t-test. For in silico analysis, a virtual cement thickness was designed for the two misfit values found previously, and the CAD model was assembled on an implant-abutment set. A load of 100 N was applied at 30° on the central fossa, and the equivalent stress was calculated for the crown, titanium components, bone, and resin cement layer. Results: The CAD/CAM group presented a significantly (p=0.0068) higher misfit (64.99±18.73 µm) than the heat-pressed group (37.64±15.66 µm). In silico results showed that the heat-pressed group presented a decrease in stress concentration of 61% in the crown and 21% in the cement. In addition, a decrease of 14.5% and an increase of 7.8% in the stress for the prosthetic abutment and implant, respectively, was recorded. For the cortical and cancellous bone, a slight increase in stress occurred with an increase in the cement layer thickness of 5.9% and 5.7%, respectively. Conclusion: The milling of wax patterns for subsequent inclusion and obtaining heat-pressed crowns is an option to obtain restorations with an excellent marginal fit and better stress distribution throughout the implant-abutment set

RESUMEN

This study proposed the development of a protocol for class-II preparations with demineralized gingival margins for the improvement of the longevity of restorations. Evidence sources such as location/color/surface hardness/width of demineralized gingival margin with enamel/demineralized enamel (DE)/dentin/cementum were reviewed based on methodological studies and systematic reviews. A decision tree protocol was developed with criteria (i) lesion location: demineralized gingival margins in enamel must be removed, but if close to cementoenamel-junction, color should be evaluated. (ii) Color: yellow/brown lesions must be removed, but if white/opaque, then the surface hardness should be evaluated. (iii) Surface hardness: soft/demineralized gingival margin must be removed, but if adequately hard, width should be evaluated. (iv) Width: lesions less than half-enamel thickness and impenetrable by an explorer, remineralization is possible and the lesion does not need to be removed. A decision tree protocol was set up with the current available literature. Further continued investigations will be needed for the appropriate protocol updates.

RESUMEN

Objetivo. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la adaptación marginal de coronas de disilicato de litio obtenidas mediante técnicas de escaneo (CAD/CAM), antes y des- pués de la cristalización, a través de análisis in vitro con microscopía confocal (MC). Métodos. Fueron confeccionadas 16 réplicas en poliuretano a partir de la pieza 1.4, de modelo typodont, tallada para corona total. Las réplicas fueron divididas en dos gru- pos, de acuerdo a la técnica de escaneo: Técnica Indirecta (Grupo IND, n=08), donde modelos de yeso fueron escaneados con escáner de laboratorio (inEos X5, Sirona Den- tal Systems) y Técnica Directa (Grupo DIR, n=08), donde modelos typodont fueron escaneados con escáner intraoral (CEREC BlueCam, Sirona Dental Systems). A seguir, se fresaron (inLab MC XL, Sirona Dental Systems) coronas en disilicato de litio (IPS e.max CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent) y se adaptaron a las réplicas. Se evaluó la adaptación marginal con análisis de MC en dos momentos, antes y después de la cristalización del disilicato de litio. Los datos fueron analizados con la prueba de Mann-Whitney, t de Student y Wilcoxon (α= 0,05). Resultados. Hubo una diferencia estadísticamente significativa en la adaptación marginal horizontal entre los grupos IND y DIR después de la cristalización (p=0,05). En el grupo IND, la comparación de la adaptación mar- ginal vertical antes y después de la cristalización mostró una diferencia estadísticamente significativa (p=0,038). Conclusiones. Las coronas de disilicato de litio obtenidas me- diante escaneo directo (CAD/CAM) presentaron menor desajuste marginal vertical. La etapa de cristalización afectó la adaptación marginal de las coronas.

This study aimed to evaluate lithium disilicate marginal adaption on crowns by scanning techniques (CAD/CAM), before and after crystallization, through confocal microscopy (CM) in vitro analysis. Methods. Sixteen polyurethane replicas were per- formed from tooth 1.4, of a typodont model, prepared for a full crown. The replicas were divided into two groups, according to the scanning technique: Indirect Technique (Group IND, n=08), where dental stone models were scanned with a laboratory scanner (inEos X5, Sirona Dental Systems) and Direct Technique (Group DIR, n=08), where typodont models were scanned with an intraoral scanner (CEREC BlueCam, Sirona Dental Systems). Then, the lithium disilicate crowns (IPS e.max CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent) were milled (inLab MC XL, Sirona Dental Systems) and adapted to the replicas. Margin- al adaptation was evaluated with CM analysis before and after lithium disilicate crystalli- zation. Data were analyzed with the Mann-Whitney, t test, and Wilconxon test (α=0.05). Results. There was a statistically significant difference in horizontal marginal adaptation between IND and DIR groups after crystallization (p=0.05). In IND group, the compar- ison of vertical marginal adaptation before and after crystallization showed a statistically significant difference (p=0.038). Conclusions. Lithium disilicate crowns obtained by direct scanning technique (CAD/CAD) showed less vertical marginal maladjustment. The crystallization stage affected the crown's marginal adaptation.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate, in an in vitro study, the quantity of artefacts generated by two different restorative materials, and to determine the diagnostic accuracy of cone beam CT (CBCT) scans and periapical radiographs in identifying gaps in prosthetic crowns. METHODS: A total of 30 teeth restored with metal-ceramic (n = 15) and all-ceramic (n = 15) crowns, properly adapted and with 0.30- and 0.50 mm gaps, underwent CBCT exams (with voxel sizes of 0.25 and 0.30 mm) and periapical radiographs. The artefacts generated by two different crowns were quantified and compared by the Mann-Whitney test. In addition, five examiners evaluated the presence or absence of gaps in periapical radiographs and CBCT images. The accuracy of tests was determined by the area under the receiver operatring characteristic curve and these values were compared by using the Kruskal-Wallis test. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in artefact values between the different restorative materials and the different resolutions of CBCT images. Regarding the accuracy of the tests evaluated, periapical radiography and CBCT with voxel size 0.25 mm showed the best performance for smaller gaps (0.30 mm). For larger gaps (0.50 mm), all exams tested showed the same performance. CONCLUSIONS: Periapical radiography was still the most cost-beneficial method for the diagnosis of maladaptation in dental restorations. CBCT exams did not improve accuracy in detecting gaps in prosthetic crowns.

RESUMEN

Uma revisão sistemática foi realizada para responder a seguinte pergunta: O uso de resina composta preaquecida como agente de cimentação influencia na adaptação de restaurações indiretas? Foram selecionados estudos que avaliaram a adaptação das restaurações indiretas, sobre dentes naturais ou artificiais preparados, e que compararam a resina composta restauradora preaquecida, como agente de cimentação com o cimento resinoso. A avaliação do risco de viés foi baseada em uma lista de verificação de 9 itens. MEDLINE via PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Scopus, LILACS e BBO via Virtual Health Library, Cochrane Library e bancos de dados da literatura cinzenta foram pesquisados, sem restrição de idioma ou ano. Dos 2046 estudos potencialmente elegíveis, 4 estudos in vitro foram incluídos nesta revisão. Enquanto em um dos estudos incluídos a resina composta restauradora preaquecida melhorou a adaptação das restaurações indiretas; de acordo com os outros três estudos, o material produziu uma desadaptação significativamente maior em comparação ao cimento resinoso. Todos os estudos incluídos apresentaram médio risco de viés. O elevado nível de heterogeneidade entre os estudos excluiu a realização de meta-análise. Os estudos incluídos nesta revisão sistemática parecem sugerir que a resina composta preaquecida, quando usada como agente cimentante, não influencia favoravelmente a adaptação das restaurações indiretas. A alta heterogeneidade entre os estudos indica a necessidade de mais investigações com um melhor desenho metodológico para concluir esta questão. (AU)

A systematic review was performed to answer the following research question: Does the use of preheated restorative resin composite as luting agent influence on the adaptation of indirect restorations? Studies evaluating the adaptation of indirect restorations in prepared natural and artificial teeth, and compared preheated restorative composite resin as luting agent with resin cement were selected. Assessment of the risk of bias was based on an 9-item checklist. The MEDLINE via PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Scopus, LILACS and BBO via Virtual Health Library, Cochrane Library, and the grey literature databases were searched, without language or year restriction. From 2046 retrieved articles, 4 in vitro studies were included in this review. While in one of the included studies preheated restorative composite resin improved the adaptation of indirect restorations; according to the other three studies, the material produced a significantly greater mismatch compared to resin cement. All included studies were considered to be at medium risk of bias. The high level of heterogeneity across the studies excluded meta-analysis. The studies included in this systematic review seems to suggest that preheated restorative resin composite, used as luting agent, does not influence favorably the adaptation of indirect restorations. The high heterogeneity across the studies indicates the need for further investigations with a better methodological design to conclude this question. (AU)

RESUMEN

Objetivo: Estudos demostraram que a zircônia monolítica um dos materiais restauradores desenvolvidos recentemente, resolveu vários problemas de restauração de zircônia. Portanto, a precisão marginal e o ajuste interno são necessários para o sucesso clinico e para a qualidade da restauração, e o espaço do cimento pode influenciar o ajuste marginal. Assim, o presente estudo teve como objetivo investigar os efeitos da espessura do cimento e o tipo de restauração na discrepância marginal. Material e métodos: foram usadas para fabricação de coroa total. Dois tipos de materiais incluindo Zirconia monolítica (Zolid) e Sintron foram usadas para produzir a coroa total. As amostras de cada grupo foram digitalizadas em laboratório dentário por um scanner 3D, projetadas e acessadas usando CAD-CAM. As amostras foram divididas em quatro grupos de cinco com espaço de 30 e 50 mícrons de cimento. Para avaliar a discrepância marginal, as coroas foram colocadas em seus respectivos dentes sem o uso de qualquer intermediário e examinados em micro-CT. Os dados foram avaliados pelo software SPSS. Resultados: Descobriu-se que a discrepância marginal do Sintron é maior que a discrepância da zircônia monolítica. Na verdade, a zircônia monolítica com espaço de 50 µm de cimento exibiu uma menor discrepância marginal, e o espaço de cimento do Sintron não influenciou significantemente na discrepância marginal. Conclusão: Concluiu-se que os tipos de material e o espaço do cimento influencia na discrepância marginal da restauração construída pelo fluxo digital (AU)

Objective: Studies demonstrated that as one of then ewly developed restorative materials, monolithic zirconia resolved several issues of zirconia restoration. Therefore, marginal accuracy and internal fit are necessary for clinical success and quality of restorations, and cement space may influence the marginal fit. Thus, the present research aimed to investigate the effects of the cement thickness and kind of restoration on the marginal discrepancy. Material and methods: In this study, 20 maxillary left first molars, prepared by DRSK Co., were used to fabricate a full crown. Two types of material included monolithic zirconia (Zolid) and Sintron were used to make a full crown. Samples from each group were scanned by dental laboratory 3D scanner and designed and processed using CAD-CAM. The samples were divided into four groups of five with 30-and 50- µm cement spaces. In order to assess the vertical marginal discrepancy, the crowns were fittedon their respective teeth without using any mediator and examined by a micro-CT scanner. Data were analyzed by SPSS software. Results: It has been found that marginal discrepancy in Sintron is higher than the discrepancy of monolithic zirconia. In fact, monolithic zirconia with 50-micron cement space exhibited the least marginal discrepancy and the cement space in Sintron did not significantly influence the marginal discrepancy. Conclusion: It has been concluded that the material kinds and cement space influence the restoration marginal discrepancy constructed by digital workflow (AU)

RESUMEN

A pesar de los avances e innovaciones de los materiales dentales, la microfiltración marginal y la contracción durante la polimerización continúan siendo una de las causas principales del fracaso de los tratamientos en odontología restauradora. Un sellado marginal correcto será posible cuando las fuerzas de adhesión superen las fuerzas generadas por la contracción de polimerización y las fuerzas generadas por los cambios dimensionales térmicos posteriores a la polimerización, por lo que investigaciones previas demostraron que estas limitaciones pueden ser superadas con el uso de resinas Bulk Fill como material de relleno de cavidades extensas y profundas de dientes posteriores. Estas resinas. de relleno masivo, están recibiendo atención, principalmente porque se pueden colocar, a diferencia de las resinas convencionales, en incrementos de 4 mm sin afectar la contracción de la polimerización, la adaptación de la cavidad o el grado de conversión. El objetivo de la presente revisión bibliográfica es describir la contracción de polimerización y la consecuente filtración marginal que sufren las resinas compuestas para el sector posterior Bulk Fill con base de datos de la literatura (AU)

Despite advances and innovations in dental materials, marginal microfiltration and shrinkage during polymerization continue to be one of the main causes of treatment failure in Restorative Dentistry. A correct marginal seal will be possible when the adhesion forces exceed the forces generated by polymerization contraction and the forces generated by post-polymerization thermal dimensional changes, for which previous research has shown that these limitations can be overcome with the use of Bulk Fill resins as filling material for large and deep posterior tooth cavities, these massive filling resins are receiving attention mainly because they can be placed, unlike conventional resins, in 4 mm increments without affecting polymerization shrinkage. , cavity adaptation or degree of conversion. The objective of the present bibliographic review is to describe the polymerization contraction and consequent marginal filtration suffered by Composite Resins for the Bulk Fill posterior sector with a literature database (AU)

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT: The objective of the study was to evaluate marginal adaptation of Class II mesial-occlusal-distal (MOD) restorations before and after thermo-mechanical loading and volumetric shrinkage of the bulk-fill vs conventional composite resin. For marginal adaptation assessment, 24 Class II MOD cavities with cervical margins extending 1.0 mm below (distal) and 1.0 mm beyond (mesial) the cement-enamel junction were prepared in extracted human molars. The teeth were filled as follows: Group A - bulk-fill with SureFil SDR flow (first increment, 4 mm; second increment, 2 mm); Group B - bulk-fill with SureFil SDR flow as a base (first increment, 4 mm) and covered with the conventional nanohybrid composite Esthet-X HD (second increment, 2 mm); and Group C - incrementally filled with Esthet-X HD. Marginal adaptation was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy before and after thermomechanical loading (240,000 loading cycles and simultaneous 600 thermal cycles). To evaluate volumetric polymerization shrinkage, a semi-spherical mold was filled with the tested composites and placed in an AccuVol device after light curing. Both before and after loading, marginal adaptation in cervical dentin was superior (p < 0.05) for Groups A and B compared with Group C. In cervical enamel, Group B showed better marginal adaptation than Group C, and Group A presented intermediary results, between Groups B and C. Furthermore, bulk-fill flow resulted in greater shrinkage than Esthet-X HD. A significant improvement of marginal adaptation was observed when bulkfill flow was used instead of conventional composite resin both before and after thermomechanical loading. However, the bulk-fill flow presented higher volumetric polymerization shrinkage than the conventional composite.

RESUMEN: El objetivo de este trabajo consistió en evaluar la adaptación marginal de las restauraciones mesiales-oclusales-distales (MOD) de Clase II antes y después de la carga termo-mecánica y la contracción volumétrica de la carga compuesta de resina "bulk-fill" en comparación con resina convencional. Para la evaluación de adaptación, se prepararon 24 cavidades MOD de Clase II en molares humanos extraídos, los que se restauraron de la siguiente manera: Grupo A: restaurado con resina fluida Bulk-Fill SureFilSDR (primer incremento, 4 mm; segundo incremento, 2 mm); Grupo B: restaurado con resina fluida Bulk-Fill SureFil SDR (primer incremento, 4 mm) y cubierto con resina compuesta nanohíbrida Esthet-X HD (segundo incremento, 2 mm); y Grupo C - rellenado incrementalmente con Esthet-X HD. La adaptación marginal se evaluó mediante microscopía electrónica de barrido antes y después de la carga termomecánica (240.000 ciclos de carga y 600 ciclos térmicos simultáneos). Para evaluar la contracción volumétrica de la polimerización, se llenó un molde semiesférico con los compuestos probados y se colocó en un dispositivo AccuVol después del fotopolimerización. Tanto antes como después de la carga, la adaptación marginal en la dentina cervical fue superior (p <0,05) para los grupos A y B en comparación con el grupo C. En el esmalte cervical, el grupo B mostró una mejor adaptación marginal que el grupo C, y el grupo A presentó resultados intermedios, entre Grupos B y C. Se observó una mejora significativa de la adaptación marginal al utilizar la resina fluida Bulk-Fill en lugar de resina compuesta convencional tanto antes como después de la carga termomecánica. Sin embargo, la resina fluida 'Bulk-Fill' presentó una mayor contracción volumétrica de polimerización que el compuesto convencional.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the effects of the scanning techniques and the crystallization in the internal and marginal adaptation of milled lithium disilicate crowns by two techniques computer microtomography analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixteen polyurethane teeth prepared for a complete crown were divided into two groups according to the scanner method (n = 8): indirect (IND), dental stone models were scanned with laser-surface scanner, and direct (DIR), digital typodont creates with an intraoral scanner. Internal and marginal gap were evaluated by micro-computed tomography (microCT). The replica technique (RT) was applied for analysis of total volume (TV) and marginal volume (MV) gap in microCT. The data showed normal distribution (Shapiro-Wilk test). One-way ANOVA (scanner techniques) with repeated measures (crystallization) was performed. Multiple comparisons were performed with Bonferroni adjustment (α = .05). RESULTS: The axial gap showed a significant difference between the times (P = .017) for lower values after crystallization. The vertical marginal gap presented a significant difference in times for higher value after crystallization (P = .001). The marginal horizontal gap IND was greater than DIR after crystallization (P = .001) and IND before lower than after crystallization. For TV was not significant difference and MV in DIR was reduction (P = .002) after crystallization. CONCLUSION: Crystallization changes the relationship between the crown and tooth, reducing internal gap and preventing the adequate fit in indirect and direct scanning. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The measure gap under technological methodology is useful for adjust clinical parameters prosthetic in the CAD/CAM and the applicability of the new possibilities of analysis.
