Simeon P, Unkovskiy A, Saadat Sarmadi B, Nicic R, Koch PJ, Beuer F, Schmidt F. Wear resistance and flexural properties of low force SLA- and DLP-printed splint materials in different printing orientations: An in vitro study. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2024; 152:106458. [PMID: 38364445 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2024.106458] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 01/29/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/18/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the influence of material and printing orientation on wear resistance and flexural properties of one low force SLA- and two DLP-printed splint materials and to compare these 3D-printed splints to a subtractively manufactured splint material. METHODS Two DLP-printed (V-Print splint, LuxaPrint Ortho Plus) and one low force SLA-printed (Dental LT Clear) material, where specimens were printed in three printing orientations (0°, 45°, 90°), were investigated. In addition, one milled splint material (Zirlux Splint Transparent) was examined. A total of 160 specimens were produced for both test series. The two-body wear test was performed in a chewing simulator (80'000 cycles at 50 N with 5-55 °C thermocycling). Steatite balls were used as antagonists. The wear pattern was analyzed with a 3D digital microscope in terms of maximum vertical intrusion depth (mm) and total volume loss (mm³). The flexural properties were investigated by three-point bending in accordance with ISO 20795-1: 2013 (denture base polymers). The flexural strength (MPa) and the flexural modulus (MPa) were measured. Two-way ANOVA was performed to investigate the effects of the two independent variables material and printing orientation for the three 3D-printed materials. The comparison of the printing orientations within one material was carried out with one-way ANOVA with post-hoc Tukey tests. RESULTS Two-way ANOVA revealed that wear and flexural properties are highly dependent on the 3D-printed material (p < 0.001). Across groups, a significant effect was observed for wear depth (p = 0.031) and wear volume (p = 0.044) with regard to printing orientation but this was not found for flexural strength (p = 0.080) and flexural modulus (p = 0.136). One-way ANOVA showed that both DLP-printed groups showed no significant differences within the printing orientations in terms of wear and flexural properties. Dental LT Clear showed that 90° oriented specimens had higher flexural strength than 0° oriented ones (p < 0.001) and 45° oriented specimens also showed higher values than 0° ones (p = 0.038). No significant differences were observed within the printing orientations for flexural modulus and wear behaviour within this group. T-tests showed that the milled splints exhibited statistically higher wear resistance and flexural properties compared to all three 3D-printed splint materials (p < 0.001) and that highly significant differences were found between the 3D-printed splint materials for both test series. CONCLUSION Within the limitations of this in vitro study, it can be stated that wear behaviour and flexural properties are highly dependent on the 3D-printed material itself. Currently, milled splints exhibit higher wear resistance and flexural properties compared to 3D-printed splint materials. The printing orientation has a minor influence on the properties investigated. Nevertheless, two-way ANOVA also showed a significant influence of printing orientation in the wear test across groups and one-way ANOVA detected significant effects for SLA material in terms of flexural strength, with printing in 90° showing the highest flexural strength. Therefore, anisotropy was found in SLA material, but it can be limited with the employed printing parameters. Both DLP-printed materials showed no significant difference within the printing orientation.

Abstract
The objective of this paper is to elucidate the response to contact stresses of Polymer Infiltrated Ceramic Network (PICN) using the microscopic viscoplastic finite elements, validated by clinically relevant in vitro tests. A feldspathic ceramic material, namely Vita Mark II, is an interconnected structure infiltrated with the polymer (PMMA). Axisymmetric finite element microstructure models are reconstructed from two-dimensional images of a PICN microstructure. Viscoplastic finite element analysis (FEA) with various degrees of microscopic damages occurring over contact is performed. The force-displacement responses obtained from FEA are validated with Hertzian contact tests. Finite element results for force-displacement, stresses and strains in each phase are discussed. We hypothesize that the resistance to fracture of PICN can be further improved by microstructural tailoring. The experimental evidence suggests that a composite material is both more resistant to displacement under load and more resistant to crack initiation and propagation, as hypothesized. Further parametric study on the effects of various volume fractions of two phases in PICN is done to provide some insight on increased contact damage resistance of PICN as well as potential optimization of microstructures.

Aljomard YRM, Altunok EÇ, Kara HB. Enamel wear against monolithic zirconia restorations: A meta-analysis and systematic review of in vitro studies. J ESTHET RESTOR DENT 2022; 34:473-489. [PMID: 34623015 DOI: 10.1111/jerd.12823] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2020] [Revised: 07/02/2021] [Accepted: 09/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE An assessment was performed to identify and evaluate dental enamel wear caused by monolithic zirconia restoration. Literature searches were conducted in PubMed, Science Direct, Cochrane Evidence, and the Cochrane Library up to May 2020. MATERIAL AND METHODS Studies were selected for systematic review according to the inclusion (articles conducted on the wear of enamel samples opposing monolithic zirconia) and exclusion (case reports, non-English articles, and monolithic zirconia samples facing other materials rather than human enamel) criteria. Of those, articles on polished and glazed monolithic zirconia subjected to a 50 N vertical load with a range of 240,000-250,000 cycles, equivalent to 1 year of in vivo mastication, were included in the meta-analysis. RESULTS In total, 3968 articles were pooled. Twenty-five articles met the inclusion criteria for the systematic review. Three studies were included in the meta-analysis. The results showed that the enamel wear against monolithic zirconia was within the statistically accepted level. Moreover, the polished monolithic zirconia surface caused less enamel wear than the glazed surface. CONCLUSION This review indicates that monolithic zirconia restorations cause acceptable antagonist enamel wear. Moreover, the meta-analysis results agreed that the final restoration's surface texture plays an essential role in the wear process. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Monolithic zirconia restorations have been widely used in dental practice because they eliminate the chipping problems resulting from using veneered restorations. With recent technology development, monolithic zirconia has obtained more esthetic features and a more natural look. However, due to the high strength and surface roughness of monolithic zirconia, wear on the antagonist's teeth was detected. The results showed that this wear amount was statistically acceptable and lower than other ceramics such as feldspathic porcelain and enamel. Furthermore, surface treatment methods must be applied to minimize tooth wear, as polished or glazed surfaces interfere with enamel loss.

Mechanical Stability of Screw-Retained Monolithic and Bi-layer Posterior Hybrid Abutment Crowns after Thermomechanical Loading: An In Vitro Study. MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14247539. [PMID: 34947134 PMCID: PMC8706390 DOI: 10.3390/ma14247539] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2021] [Revised: 11/29/2021] [Accepted: 12/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
To evaluate the failure-load and survival-rate of screw-retained monolithic and bi-layered crowns bonded to titanium-bases before and after mouth-motion fatigue, 72 titanium-implants (SICvantage-max, SIC-invent-AG) were restored with three groups (n = 24) of screw-retained CAD/CAM implant-supported-single-crowns (ISSC) bonded to titanium-bases: porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM-control), porcelain-fused-to-zirconia (PFZ-test) and monolithic LDS (LDS-test). Half of the specimens (n = 12/group) were subjected to fatigue in a chewing-simulator (1.2 million cycles, 198 N, 1.67 Hz, thermocycling 5–55 °C). All samples were exposed to single-load-to-failure without (PFM0, PFZ0, LDS0) or with fatigue (PFM1, PFZ1, LDS1). Comparisons were statistically analyzed with t-tests and regression-models and corrected for multiple-testing using the Student–Neuman–Keuls method. All PFM and LDS crowns survived fatigue exposure, whereas 16.7% of PFZ showed chipping failures. The mean failure-loads (±SD) were: PFM0: 2633 ± 389 N, PFM1: 2349 ± 578 N, PFZ0: 2152 ± 572 N, PFZ1: 1686 ± 691 N, LDS0: 2981 ± 798 N, LDS1: 2722 ± 497 N. Fatigue did not influence load to failure of any group. PFZ ISSC showed significantly lower failure-loads than monolithic-LDS regardless of artificial aging (p < 0.05). PFM ISSC showed significantly higher failure loads after fatigue than PFZ (p = 0.032). All ISSC failed in a range above physiological chewing forces. Premature chipping fractures might occur in PFZ ISSC. Monolithic-LDS ISSC showed high reliability as an all-ceramic material for screw-retained posterior hybrid-abutment-crowns.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the preparation of inlay cavities, a choice must be made between conventional standard and minimally invasive preparation designs; in the long run, this choice can affect the integrity of the bonded interface. PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of minimally invasive cavity preparation designs on the extent and contributing mechanisms of damage to ceramic inlay bonded interfaces. METHODS AND MATERIALS Tooth blocks with 90°, 120° and 75° marginal angles were prepared, representing tooth cavities with conventional standard and minimally invasive preparations with large divergence and convergence angles and bonded to monolithic ceramic (IPS e.max CAD). Vickers indentations were placed at various distances from the bonded interface. The indentation morphology and crack length were observed. Reciprocating wear tests were performed on the bonded interface with a 20-newton (N) vertical load. The wear depth and wear-scar morphology were characterized after increments of cyclic sliding contact. RESULTS The 120° group exhibited longer indentation cracks in the ceramic, whereas the 75° group showed larger indentations in the enamel when compared to the 90° group (p<0.001). Consistent with the weaker edge crack resistance, the 120° group experienced the greatest wear (p=0.008), and the wear depth in the enamel of the 75° group exceeded that of the 90° group (p<0.001) in the early stage (5×102 cycles). However, no significant difference in the wear depth (p>0.147) and morphology were found at the later wear stage among the three groups. CONCLUSION Within the limitations of this study, minimally invasive preparations with 120° and 75° marginal angles can result in early sever damage at the ceramic inlay bonded interface but show comparable wear behaviors to the conventional 90° group at the later stage.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the wear resistance and surface roughness of three interim resin materials, which were subjected to chewing simulation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three interim resin materials were evaluated: (1) three-dimensional (3D) printed (digital light processing type), (2) computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) milled, and (3) conventional polymethyl methacrylate interim resin materials. A total of 48 substrate specimens were prepared. The specimens were divided into two subgroups and subjected to 30,000 or 60,000 cycles of chewing simulation (n = 8). The wear volume loss and surface roughness of the materials were compared. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way analysis of variance and Tukey's post-hoc test (α=.05). RESULTS The mean ± standard deviation values of wear volume loss (in mm3) against the metal abrader after 60,000 cycles were 0.10 ± 0.01 for the 3D printed resin, 0.21 ± 0.02 for the milled resin, and 0.44 ± 0.01 for the conventional resin. Statistically significant differences among volume losses were found in the order of 3D printed, milled, and conventional interim materials (P<.001). After 60,000 cycles of simulated chewing, the mean surface roughness (Ra; μm) values for 3D printed, milled, and conventional materials were 0.59 ± 0.06, 1.27 ± 0.49, and 1.64 ± 0.44, respectively. A significant difference was found in the Ra value between 3D printed and conventional materials (P=.01). CONCLUSION The interim restorative materials for additive and subtractive manufacturing digital technologies exhibited less wear volume loss than the conventional interim resin. The 3D printed interim restorative material showed a smoother surface than the conventional interim material after simulated chewing.

Abstract
PURPOSE This laboratory study analyzed the influence of retention mode (screw- vs cement retained) and fatigue application on the failure load of monolithic lithium-disilicate (LDS) implant-supported single crowns (ISSC). MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 72 samples of monolithic LDS (*Ivoclar Vivadent) ISSC were divided into three groups (n = 24) according to their type of retention mode: Group Ti-CAD: Titanium base (SICvantage CAD/CAM Abutment red (SIC invent AG), screw-retained milled monolithic LDS (IPS e.max CAD*); Group Ti-P: Titanium base (SICvantage CAD/CAM Abutment red), screw-retained pressed monolithic LDS (IPS e.max Press*) and Group Ti-Cust: Titanium base with cemented press LDS (IPS e.max Press*) crown on a LDS (IPS e.max Press*) custom abutment. A mandibular first molar implant-supported single crown model was investigated (Titanium implant: SICvantage-max, SIC invent AG, diameter: 4.2 mm, length: 11.5 mm). Half of each group (n = 12) were exposed to fatigue with cyclic mechanical loading (F = 198 N, 1.2 million cycles) and simultaneous thermocycling (5-55°C). Single load to failure testing was performed, before (Subgroups Ti-CAD, Ti-P, and Ti-Cust) and after (Subgroups Ti-CAD-F, Ti-P-F, and Ti-Cust-F) fatigue. Weibull distribution was used to determine the characteristic strength and Weibull modulus differences between groups. Probability of survival at 900N load was calculated. RESULTS No samples failed during fatigue. Characteristic strength values were as follow: Ti-CAD: 3259.5N, Ti-CAD-F: 2926N, Ti-P: 2763N, Ti-P-F: 2841N, Ti-Cust: 2789N, Ti-Cust-F: 2194N. Whereas no difference was observed between pressed or milled monolithic crowns cemented to Ti-base, regardless of loading condition, fatigue decreased the characteristic strength of crowns cemented to custom abutments. Probability of survival at 900 N was not significantly different between groups. CONCLUSIONS Screw-retained pressed or milled monolithic LDS ISSC, cemented directly to Ti-base abutments or LDS crowns cemented to custom ceramic abutments resist physiological chewing forces after simulated 5-year aging in the artificial mouth and presented equally high probability of survival. However, a significant decrease in load to failure was observed in LDS crowns cemented to custom ceramic abutments after fatigue. Prospective clinical trials are needed to confirm the results of this laboratory investigation.

Abstract
Composite resins are the most commonly used dental restorative materials after minimally invasive dental procedures, and they offer an aesthetically pleasing appearance. An ideal composite restorative material should have wear properties similar to those of tooth tissues. Wear refers to the damaging, gradual loss or deformation of a material at solid surfaces. Depending on the mechanism of action, wear can be categorized as abrasive, adhesive, fatigue, or corrosive. Currently used composite resins cover a wide range of materials with diverse properties, offering dental clinicians multiple choices for anterior and posterior teeth. In order to improve the mechanical properties and the resistance to wear of composite materials, many types of monomers, silane coupling agents, and reinforcing fillers have been developed. Since resistance to wear is an important factor in determining the clinical success of composite resins, the purpose of this literature review was to define what constitutes wear. The discussion focuses on factors that contribute to the extent of wear as well as to the prevention of wear. Finally, the behavior of various types of existing composite materials such as nanohybrid, flowable, and computer-assisted design/computer-assisted manufacturing materials, was investigated, along with the factors that may cause or contribute to their wear.

Abstract
This paper reports on the process-fatigue relation of lithium disilicate glass ceramic (LDGC) using low-cycle, high-load Hertzian indentations with a rigid indenter to simulate teeth grinding/clenching of LDGC restorations with different surface asperities obtained in CAD/CAM milling, sintering, polishing and glazing. The maximum contact stresses were evaluated as functions of the number of load cycles and surface treatments using the Hertzian model. Indentation-induced surface damage was viewed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to understand the relationships among microstructures, surface asperities, crack morphology and propagation. Different processes and surface treatments significantly affected the maximum contact stresses of indented LDGC surfaces (ANOVA, p < 0.05), which were all significantly reduced with the number of cycles (ANOVA, p < 0.05). Quasi-plastic deformation was dominant in single-cycle indentation of all processed and treated surfaces. In higher cycle indentations, inner cone cracks were formed on all surfaces; median and transverse cracks were formed on the roughest surfaces processed by CAD/CAM milling and sintering. Ring cracks, fretting, pulverization, micro-bridges, surface smearing and wedging, and edge chippings were also propagated on all surfaces. The process-fatigue relation provides an understanding of the mechanical functions of surface asperities produced in different processes and treatments. It indicates that the mechanically assisted growth of surface asperities with different roughness strongly affected the indentation-induced surface damage. Finally, the smoothest surfaces produced by CAD/CAM milling, polishing and sintering sustained the highest contact stresses and the least fatigue damage at higher cycles, ensuring their superior fatigue performance compared to other processed LDGC surfaces.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Mechanical damages can occur from dental restoration processing and fitting, or while it is in-service. This study evaluates the damage sensitivity of translucent zirconia (5Y-PSZ) relative to conventional 3Y-PSZ following mouth-motion simulations at various loads. METHODS 5Y-PSZ and 3Y-PSZ discs were adhesively bonded to a dentin-like substrate and divided into groups according to the load (50 N or 200 N) and number of cycles (up to 106) used in the chewing simulation. Specimens were mounted with 30° inclination in an electrodynamic mouth-motion simulator, and subjected to contact-slide-liftoff cyclic loading in water. Surface and sub-surface damages were analyzed using a sectioning technique. After the simulation, specimens were removed from the substrate and loaded with the damaged surface in tension for biaxial strength testing to assess their damage tolerance. RESULTS The strength of both ceramics underwent significant degradation after mouth-motion simulations. For 5Y-PSZ, the strength degradation was greater (∼60%) and occurred at a lower number of cycles than 3Y-PSZ. Herringbone cracks emerged on 3Y-PSZ and 5Y-PSZ surfaces under a 200-N load after 50 and 10 cycles, respectively. Meanwhile at a 50-N load, cracks formed at ∼1000 cycles in both ceramics. Further increasing the number of cycles only had moderate effects on the strength of both ceramics, despite an increase in surface and sub-surface damage. More significantly, a 50-N occlusal load can debase the zirconia strengths as much as a 200-N load. SIGNIFICANCE Surface flaws produced during the chewing simulation are capable of significant strength degradation in zirconia, even after a small number of low-load cycles.

Two-body wear test of enamel against laboratory polished and clinically adjusted zirconia. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2020; 108:103760. [PMID: 32469712 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2020.103760] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2019] [Revised: 03/21/2020] [Accepted: 03/30/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
AIM A two-body wear test experiment was performed on human enamel, in simulated chewing motion, against non-veneered zirconia ceramic. Aim-1 was to ascertain the effect of zirconia roughness on enamel wear. Aim-2 was to ascertain the relative enamel wear between enamel-zirconia wear pair and enamel-enamel control pair. MATERIALS Six molar and premolar human enamel cusps per group were used for a dental wear test against laboratory polished (LP) zirconia and laboratory polished and clinically adjusted (LP + CA) zirconia. Enamel antagonists were tested against incisor teeth as a control group to demonstrate laboratory enamel wear. METHODOLOGY Two-body wear tests were conducted in a dual-axis biomimetic dental wear simulator. 49N loading force was used for 120,000 cycles with 1 mm lateral movement of the test specimen at 1.6Hz frequency, under constant ambient temperature water flow. Surface roughness before testing was determined using 3D profilometry. Loss of enamel height and volume i.e. vertical wear and volumetric wear respectively, were measured by superimposition of before and after testing scans by 3D laser scanning. Scanning electron microscopy was used for surface morphology assessment. One-way ANOVA and Post Hoc Multiple Comparisons with Bonferroni corrections were used at the 5% significance level to determine whether surface finish affected volumetric and vertical enamel loss. The relationship between volumetric and vertical loss of enamel was assessed using Pearson's correlation test. RESULTS No significant difference was found between LP and LP + CA zirconia in vertical and volumetric enamel wear results. Control enamel had significantly higher vertical and volumetric enamel wear than LP and LP + CA zirconia. Pearson correlation revealed a strong relationship between vertical wear and volumetric wear of enamel. CONCLUSION Within the constraints of the test method in this experiment, zirconia irrespective of surface preparation, was found to cause less vertical and volumetric enamel wear compared to control enamel. No statistically significant difference was seen between LP zirconia and LP + CA zirconia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Controversy exists about whether the elastic modulus (E) mismatch between the loading indenter and ceramic materials influences fatigue testing results. The research hypotheses were that for porcelain veneered Y-TZP crowns 1) A low modulus Steatite indenter (SB) leads to higher fatigue reliability compared to a high modulus tungsten carbide indenter (WC); 2) Different surface damage patterns are expected between low and high modulus indenters after sliding contact fatigue testing. All ceramic crowns will exhibit similar step-stress accelerated life testing (SSALT) contact fatigue reliability (hypothesis 1) and failure characteristics (hypothesis 2) when using high stiffness tungsten carbide (WC, E = 600 GPa) vs. enamel like steatite (SB, E = 90 GPa) indenters. METHODS Manufacturer (3M Oral Care) prepared Y-TZP-veneered all-ceramic molar crowns were bonded to aged resin composite reproductions of a standard tooth preparation and subjected to mouth-motion SSALT fatigue (n = 18 per indenter type). Failure was defined either as initial inner cone crack (IC), or final fracture (FF) when porcelain fractured (chipping). Selected IC specimens that did not progress to FF were embedded in epoxy resin and sectioned for fractographic analysis. RESULTS The distribution of failures across the load and cycle profiles lead to similar calculated Weibull Use Level Probability Plots with overlap of the 2-sided 90% confidence bounds. The calculated reliability for IC and FF was equivalent at a mission of 300 N or 700 N load and 50,000 cycles, although the WC indenter had a trend for lower reliability for IC at 700 N. Both indenters produced similar patterns of wear and cracking on crown surfaces. Fractographic landmarks showed competing failure modes, but sliding contact partial inner cone cracks were the most dominant for both groups. SIGNIFICANCE The more compliant Steatite indenter had similar veneered crown fatigue reliability and failure modes to those found with use of a high stiffness tungsten carbide indenter (hypotheses 1 and 2 rejected).

[PMID: 31557660 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2019.103430] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2019] [Revised: 09/09/2019] [Accepted: 09/12/2019] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
Advances in adhesive technologies have increased indications for the use of inlays. Decrease in the bonded interface integrity due to wear has been cited as the main cause of its failure. However, this process of interface degradation and the influence of inlay material on damage mechanism appear to be poorly understood. Thus, we aimed to compare the wear behavior and interface damage between ceramic and resin composite inlays bonded to enamel under sliding contact and use the experimental findings to support recommendation of the appropriate inlay material. Bonded interface specimens involving tooth enamel and either ceramic or resin composite inlays were prepared and subjected to reciprocating wear tests up to 5×104 cycles. The wear track profiles and morphologies were characterized after increments of cyclic sliding contact using white light interferometry and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. Optical microscopy was used to evaluate sub-surface cracks and their propagation within the samples. A finite element analysis was used to analyze the stress distributions of the bonded interfaces. Composite inlays showed higher wear depth than the ceramic in the early stage (N ≤ 5×102 cycles), while no significant difference was found at the later stage. For ceramic inlay a greater portion of the contact load was concentrated in the ceramic structure, which facilitated cracks and chipping of the ceramic inlay, with rather minimal damage in the adjacent interface and enamel. In contrast, for the resin composite inlay there was larger stress concentrated in the adjacent enamel, which caused the development of cracks and their propagation to the inner enamel. The restoration material could contribute to the stress distribution and extent of damage within enamel-inlay bonded interfaces. A tough ceramic appears to be more effective at protecting the residual dental tissue.

Wear and damage at the bonded interface between tooth enamel and resin composite. J Dent 2019; 83:40-49. [PMID: 30797040 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2019.02.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2018] [Revised: 12/21/2018] [Accepted: 02/11/2019] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the wear mechanisms and evolution of damage in tooth enamel-resin composite bonded interfaces caused by sliding contact, and to develop an understanding of interface degradation from a tribological viewpoint that supports clinical recommendations for improving interface integrity. METHODS Reciprocating wear tests were performed on bonded interface samples involving commercial resin composite (Tetric N Ceram Bulk Fill), resin cement (Rely X U200) and tooth enamel using the ball-on-flat configuration. The bonded samples were subjected up to 5 × 104 cycles of sliding contact, and the wear depth and wear track morphology were characterized after increments using white light interferometry and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. Optical microscopy was also used to evaluate cracks and their propagation in the samples. RESULTS In the early stages of sliding contact, wear evolved most rapidly at the interface, followed by the enamel and the resin composite. Gradually, the difference between the wear depth at the interface and other areas decreased. Furthermore, cracks and brittle fracture appeared in the enamel during the early stages of wear, adjacent to the interface. With continuing cyclic loading, enamel wear manifested primarily as ploughs, with discontinuous pits and peeled material. Cracking decreased to only a few cracks extending to the inner enamel and parallel to the interface. CONCLUSIONS Cracking and damage occurred in the enamel during the early stages of sliding contact and accelerated by poor margin finishing. Cracks caused by wear under sliding contact could be one of the reasons for secondary caries and tooth discoloration.

Abstract
The application of resin composites in dentistry has become increasingly widespread due to the increased aesthetic demands of patients, improvements in the formulation of resin composites, and the ability of these materials to bond to tooth structures, together with concerns about dental amalgam fillings. As resistance to wear is an important factor in determining the clinical success of resin composite restoratives, this review article defines what constitutes wear and describes the major underlying phenomena involved in this process. Insights are further included on both in vivo and in vitro tests used to determine the wear resistance of resin composite and the relationships between these tests. The discussion focuses on factors that contribute to the wear of resin composite. Finally, future perspectives are included on both clinical and laboratory tests and on the development of resin composite restorations.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of polymeric computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing CAD/CAM materials on antagonistic primary tooth wear. Five CAD/CAM polymeric materials were examined: Vipi Block Monocolor (VBM), Yamahachi polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) (YAP), Mazic Duro (MZD), Vita Enamic (ENA), and Pekkton (PEK). All of the specimens were tested in a thermomechanical loading machine with the primary canine as the antagonist (50 N, 1.2 × 105 cycles, 1.7 Hz, 5/55 °C). The wear losses of the antagonist tooth and the restorative materials were calculated using reverse modelling software and an electronic scale. VBM and ENA showed significantly higher antagonist tooth wear than PEK (p < 0.05), but there was no significant difference observed among VBM, YAP, MZD, and ENA (p > 0.05). PEK showed the largest value in both material volumetric and weight losses. In terms of material volumetric losses, there was no significant difference between all of the groups (p > 0.05). In terms of material weight losses, PEK was significantly larger than ENA (p < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between VBM, YAP, MZD, and ENA (p > 0.05). Volumetric and weight losses of materials showed similar wear behaviour. However, the wear patterns of antagonists and materials were different, especially in PEK.

Abstract
Glass ionomer cement (GIC) represents a major transformation in restorative dentistry. Wear of dental restoratives is a common phenomenon and the determination of the wear resistance of direct-restorative materials is a challenging task. The aim of this paper was to evaluate the wear resistance of novel glass ionomer cement by two wear-test methods and to compare the two wear methods.The wear resistance of a conventional glass ionomer cement (HiFi Advanced Health Care Kent, UK) and cements modified by including various percentages of nanoclays (1, 2 and 4 wt %) was measured by a reciprocating wear test (ball-on-flat) and Oregon Health and Sciences University's (OHSU) wear simulator. The OHSU wear simulation subjected the cement specimens to three wear mechanisms, namely abrasion, three-body abrasion and attrition using a steatite antagonist. The abrasion wear resulted in material loss from GIC specimen as the steatite antagonist forced through the exposed glass particles when it travelled along the sliding path.The hardness of specimens was measured by the Vickers hardness test. The results of reciprocation wear test showed that HiFi-1 resulted in the lowest wear volume 4.90 (0.60) mm³ (p < 0.05), but there was no significant difference (p > 0.05) in the wear volume in comparison to HiFi, HiFi-2 and HiFi-4. Similarly, the results of OHSU wear simulator showed that the total wear volume of HiFi-4 1.49 (0.24) was higher than HiFi-1 and HiFi-2. However, no significant difference (p > 0.05) was found in the OHSU total wear volume in GICs after nanoclay incorporation. The Vickers hardness (HV) of the nanoclay-reinforced cements was measured between 62 and 89 HV. Nanoclay addition at a higher concentration (4%) resulted in higher wear volume and wear depth. The total wear volumes were less dependent upon abrasion volume and attrition volume. The total wear depths were strongly influenced by attrition depth and to some extent by abrasion depth. The addition of nanoclay in higher wt % to HiFi did not result in significant improvement in wear resistance and hardness. Nonetheless, wear is a very complex phenomenon because it is sensitive to a wide number of factors that do not necessarily act in the same way when compared using different parameters.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of full-coverage all-ceramic zirconia, lithium disilicate glass-ceramic, leucite glass-ceramic, or stainless steel crowns on antagonistic primary tooth wear. MATERIALS AND METHODS There were four study groups: the stainless steel (Steel) group, the leucite glass-ceramic (Leucite) group, the lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (Lithium) group, and the monolithic zirconia (Zirconia) group. Ten flat crown specimens were prepared per group; opposing teeth were prepared using primary canines. A wear test was conducted over 100,000 chewing cycles using a dual-axis chewing simulator and a 50 N masticating force, and wear losses of antagonistic teeth and restorative materials were calculated using a three-dimensional profiling system and an electronic scale, respectively. Statistical significance was determined using One-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (P<.05). RESULTS The Leucite group (2.670±1.471 mm3) showed the greatest amount of antagonist tooth wear, followed by in decreasing order by the Lithium (2.042±0.696 mm3), Zirconia (1.426±0.477 mm3), and Steel groups (0.397±0.192 mm3). Mean volume losses in the Leucite and Lithium groups were significantly greater than in the Steel group (P<.05). No significant difference was observed between mean volume losses in the Zirconia and Steel groups (P>.05). CONCLUSION Leucite glass-ceramic and lithium disilicate glass-ceramic cause more primary tooth wear than stainless steel or zirconia.

Abstract
Ceramic prostheses are subject to sliding contact under normal and tangential loads. Accurate prediction of the onset of fracture at two contacting surfaces holds the key to greater long-term performance of these prostheses. In this study, building on stress analysis of Hertzian contact and considering fracture criteria for linear elastic materials, a constitutive fracture mechanics relation was developed to incorporate the critical fracture load with the contact geometry, coefficient of friction and material fracture toughness. Critical loads necessary to cause fracture under a sliding indenter were calculated from the constitutive equation, and compared with the loads predicted from elastic stress analysis in conjunction with measured critical load for frictionless normal contact-a semi-empirical approach. The major predictions of the models were calibrated with experimentally determined critical loads of current and future dental ceramics after contact with a rigid spherical slider. Experimental results conform with the trends predicted by the models.

Marginal and internal fit of heat pressed versus CAD/CAM fabricated all-ceramic onlays after exposure to thermo-mechanical fatigue. J Dent 2013; 42:199-209.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to evaluate the marginal and internal fit of heat-pressed and CAD/CAM fabricated all-ceramic onlays before and after luting as well as after thermo-mechanical fatigue. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-two caries-free, extracted human mandibular molars were randomly divided into three groups (n=24/group). All teeth received an onlay preparation with a mesio-occlusal-distal inlay cavity and an occlusal reduction of all cusps. Teeth were restored with heat-pressed IPS-e.max-Press* (IP, *Ivoclar-Vivadent) and Vita-PM9 (VP, Vita-Zahnfabrik) as well as CAD/CAM fabricated IPS-e.max-CAD* (IC, Cerec 3D/InLab/Sirona) all-ceramic materials. After cementation with a dual-polymerising resin cement (VariolinkII*), all restorations were subjected to mouth-motion fatigue (98 N, 1.2 million cycles; 5°C/55°C). Marginal fit discrepancies were examined on epoxy replicas before and after luting as well as after fatigue at 200× magnification. Internal fit was evaluated by multiple sectioning technique. For the statistical analysis, a linear model was fitted with accounting for repeated measurements. RESULTS Adhesive cementation of onlays resulted in significantly increased marginal gap values in all groups, whereas thermo-mechanical fatigue had no effect. Marginal gap values of all test groups were equal after fatigue exposure. Internal discrepancies of CAD/CAM fabricated restorations were significantly higher than both press manufactured onlays. CONCLUSIONS Mean marginal gap values of the investigated onlays before and after luting as well as after fatigue were within the clinically acceptable range. Marginal fit was not affected by the investigated heat-press versus CAD/CAM fabrication technique. Press fabrication resulted in a superior internal fit of onlays as compared to the CAD/CAM technique. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Clinical requirements of 100 μm for marginal fit were fulfilled by the heat-press as well as by the CAD/CAM fabricated all-ceramic onlays. Superior internal fit was observed with the heat-press manufacturing method. The impact of present findings on the clinical long-term behaviour of differently fabricated all-ceramic onlays warrants further investigation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that monolithic lithium disilicate glass-ceramic occlusal onlay can exhibit a load-bearing capacity that approaches monolithic zirconia, due to a smaller elastic modulus mismatch between the lithium disilicate and its supporting tooth structure relative to zirconia. METHODS Ceramic occlusal onlays of various thicknesses cemented to either enamel or dentin were considered. Occlusal load was applied through an enamel-like deformable indenter or a control rigid indenter. Flexural tensile stress at the ceramic intaglio (cementation) surface-a cause for bulk fracture of occlusal onlays-was rigorously analyzed using finite element analysis and classical plate-on-foundation theory. RESULTS When bonded to enamel (supported by dentin), the load-bearing capacity of lithium disilicate can approach 75% of that of zirconia, despite the flexural strength of lithium disilicate (400MPa) being merely 40% of zirconia (1000MPa). When bonded to dentin (with the enamel completely removed), the load-bearing capacity of lithium disilicate is about 57% of zirconia, still significantly higher than the anticipated value based on its strength. Both ceramics show slightly higher load-bearing capacity when loaded with a deformable indenter (enamel, glass-ceramic, or porcelain) rather than a rigid indenter. SIGNIFICANCE When supported by enamel, the load-bearing property of minimally invasive lithium disilicate occlusal onlays (0.6-1.4mm thick) can exceed 70% of that of zirconia. Additionally, a relatively weak dependence of fracture load on restoration thickness indicates that a 1.2mm thin lithium disilicate onlay can be as fracture resistant as its 1.6mm counterpart.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The wear of tooth structure opposing anatomically contoured zirconia crowns requires further investigation. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to measure the roughness and wear of polished, glazed, and polished then reglazed zirconia against human enamel antagonists and compare the measurements to those of veneering porcelain and natural enamel. MATERIAL AND METHODS Zirconia specimens were divided into polished, glazed, and polished then reglazed groups (n=8). A veneering porcelain (Ceramco3) and enamel were used as controls. The surface roughness of all pretest specimens was measured. Wear testing was performed in the newly designed Alabama wear testing device. The mesiobuccal cusps of extracted molars were standardized and used as antagonists. Three-dimensional (3D) scans of the specimens and antagonists were obtained at baseline and after 200 000 and 400 000 cycles with a profilometer. The baseline scans were superimposed on the posttesting scans to determine volumetric wear. Data were analyzed with a 1-way ANOVA and Tukey Honestly Significant Difference (HSD) post hoc tests (α=.05) RESULTS Surface roughness ranked in order of least rough to roughest was: polished zirconia, glazed zirconia, polished then reglazed zirconia, veneering porcelain, and enamel. For ceramic, there was no measureable loss on polished zirconia, moderate loss on the surface of enamel, and significant loss on glazed and polished then reglazed zirconia. The highest ceramic wear was exhibited by the veneering ceramic. For enamel antagonists, polished zirconia caused the least wear, and enamel caused moderate wear. Glazed and polished then reglazed zirconia showed significant opposing enamel wear, and veneering porcelain demonstrated the most. CONCLUSIONS Within the limitations of the study, polished zirconia is wear-friendly to the opposing tooth. Glazed zirconia causes more material and antagonist wear than polished zirconia. The surface roughness of the zirconia aided in predicting the wear of the opposing dentition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Dental anatomy has been extensively described in numerous textbooks. Nevertheless, there are very few details about the value of the cusp radius of posterior teeth. This in vitro study used a laser profilometer to scan the occlusal surfaces of 21 molar teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS The images were analysed with µScan software and the approximate radius of curvature was measured. RESULTS The values varied between 0.6-2.5 mm. The radius average value was 1.25 mm bucco-lingually and 1.61 mm mesio-distally. CONCLUSIONS These findings might serve as a guide for different dental biomechanics studies and the conception, design and manufacturing of dental prosthetics.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to establish a wear model for testing composite filling materials with abrasion properties closer to a clinical situation. In addition, the model was used to evaluate the effect of filler volume and particle size on surface roughness and wear resistance. Each incisor tooth was prepared with nine identical standardized cavities with respect to depth, diameter, and angle. Generic composite of 3 different filler volumes and 3 different particle sizes held together with the same resin were randomly filled in respective cavities. A multidirectional wet-grinder with molar cusps as antagonist wore the surface of the incisors containing the composite fillings in a bath of human saliva at a constant temperature of 37°C. The present study suggests that the most wear resistant filling materials should consist of medium filling content (75%) and that particles size is not as critical as earlier reported.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to validate a new laboratory method to test all-ceramic systems with regard to the proportion of failures. METHODS Sixteen standardized mandibular molar crowns consisting of two different materials (IPS Empress, IPS e.max Press) were adhesively luted on CAD/CAM milled PMMA abutments (first lower molar, circular chamfer). All crowns were loaded applying an eccentric force in a Willytec chewing simulator (steel stylus, Ø 2.4 mm, 2 mm lateral movement from fossa to cuspal tip) with stepwise increase of the load (3, 5, 9 kg, 100,000 cycles each, 0.8 Hz) and simultaneous thermocycling (5°C/55°C×417 per phase). Another four crowns of each material were subjected to force measurements with a 3D force sensor during dynamic loading of each loading phase using two different lateral movements (from fossa to cusp and vice versa). RESULTS The cumulative forces for the three directions in space were much higher compared to the static load of the chewing simulator (maximal force at 3 kg 60 N, 5 kg 160 N, 9 kg 240 N). There was no statistically significant difference in the mean or maximal force between the two materials or two different lateral movements. During dynamic loading, no fractures occurred in the molar crowns made of IPS e.max Press, whereas 50% of the IPS Empress crowns showed failures (75% fractures and 25% chippings) (log-rank test p=0.002). Most of the Empress crowns fractured during the third loading phase (9 kg). CONCLUSIONS The forces that the dead weights exerted during dynamic loading were 2-3 times higher than those during static loading. None of the lithium disilicate ceramic molar crowns fractured, whereas half of the leucite reinforced molar crowns failed during dynamic loading.

Abstract
Failures of zirconia-based all-ceramic restorations appear to be predominantly chips and fractures in the porcelain veneer, from occlusally induced sliding contact damage. We hypothesized that such failure may be substantially mitigated by controlled grading of the elastic modulus at the ceramic surface. In this study, we fabricated graded structures by infiltrating glass into zirconia plates, resulting in improved aesthetics and diminished modulus at the surfaces. Individual plates were then embedded in epoxy or cemented to dental composites and subjected to single- or multi-cycle sliding contact. Plates of porcelain-veneered zirconia and monolithic zirconia served as controls. Graded zirconia-glass structures exhibited over 3 times better resistance to single-cycle sliding damage than monolithic zirconia and 25 times better than veneered zirconia, and had a fatigue sliding damage resistance comparable with that of monolithic zirconia. These zirconia-glass materials can be engineered in shades from white to yellow, and have potentially better cementation properties than homogeneous zirconia.

Abstract
The positive results of the performance of zirconia for orthopedics devices have led the dental community to explore possible esthetical and mechanical outcomes using this material. However, questions regarding long-term results have opened strong and controversial discussions regarding the utilization of zirconia as a substitute for alloys for restorations and implants. This narrative review presents the current knowledge on zirconia utilized for dental restorations, oral implant components, and zirconia oral implants, and also addresses laboratory tests and developments, clinical performance, and possible future trends of this material for dental healthcare.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Wear resistance is one of the most important physical properties of artificial resin teeth, and its dependence on the antagonist material has not been clearly established. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the wear resistance of representative artificial resin teeth in relation to antagonist material. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-four standardized specimens were prepared for each of 8 tooth types representative of anterior and posterior artificial acrylic and composite resin teeth (Gnathostar, SR Orthosit PE, Condyloform II NFC, SR Postaris DCL, SR Vivodent PE, VITA Physiodens, SR Antaris DCL, Bioplus), for a total of 192 specimens. Each specimen was prepared to a diameter of 5 mm and a thickness of 2 mm on the buccal/facial tooth surfaces. The specimens were then polished and subjected to simulated mastication (50 N, 1.2 x 10(5) cycles, 1.2 Hz) using a pin-on-block design and additional thermocycling (600 cycles, 5/55 degrees C, 2 min/cycle). Three antagonists (artificial resin teeth, steel, steatite) were prepared, and 8 specimens per tooth type were tested for each antagonist. Vertical substance and volume loss were analyzed using cast replicas and an optical 3-dimensional (3-D) surface profilometer, as well as scanning electron microscopy. Data were analyzed using 2- and 1-way ANOVA and the Games-Howell test (alpha=.05). RESULTS For both vertical substance and volume loss, significant differences were found for the various antagonists. Lowest overall mean values (SD) for vertical substance and volume loss were measured for artificial tooth antagonists (26 (10) microm to 95 (46) microm, 1.5 (1.5) microm(3) to 10.5 (9) microm(3)), and the highest values were measured for steatite antagonists (95 (23) microm to 723 (168) microm, 8 (4) microm(3) to 245 (109) microm(3)). Intermediate mean values (SD) for vertical substance and volume loss were measured for steel antagonists (118 (88) microm to 205 (120) microm, 9 (7) microm(3) to 28 (24) microm(3)). Using artificial teeth and steel antagonists, few significant differences in wear resistance were found between the various resin teeth. In contrast, significant differences were observed with steatite antagonists. CONCLUSIONS The use of steatite antagonists allowed for significantly better differentiation of wear behavior between various artificial teeth than the use of artificial resin teeth or steel antagonists.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the wear of denture teeth and their antagonists produced by two-body and three-body wear tests. Three types of denture teeth, namely feldspathic ceramic (FC), nano-filled composite resin (NCR), and experimental acrylic resin teeth (AR), were tested. For each type two groups of eight upper premolars each were prepared. The first group was tested against cusps from the same material and the second group was tested against human enamel cusps. Each group was loaded with a total of 200,000 chewing cycles (two-body wear 100,000 cycles and three-body wear 100,000 cycles). Wear was analyzed by measuring the maximum depth and volume loss of the denture teeth using a laser scanner and by measuring the vertical loss of the antagonists using an optical macroscope. Statistically, there was no significant difference between the following combinations: FC-FC and NCR-NCR regarding the vertical and volume loss; and FC-enamel and NCR-enamel regarding the total vertical substance loss. The combinations AR-AR and AR-enamel showed higher wear values than the other combinations. For complete dentures, composite resin and ceramic teeth showed similar vertical and volume loss, whereas composite resin teeth seemed to be more suitable for partial dentures opposing natural teeth in terms of wear of teeth and antagonists.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Clinical studies revealed several performance deficiencies with alumina- and zirconia-based all-ceramic restorations: fracture; poor aesthetic properties of ceramic cores (particularly zirconia cores); and difficulty in achieving a strong ceramic-resin-based cement bond. We aim to address these issues by developing a functionally graded glass/zirconia/glass (G/Z/G) structure with improved damage resistance, aesthetics, and cementation properties. METHODS Using a glass powder composition developed in our laboratory and a commercial fine zirconia powder, we have successfully fabricated functionally graded G/Z/G structures. The microstructures of G/Z/G were examined utilizing a scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The crystalline phases present in G/Z/G were identified by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Young's modulus and hardness of G/Z/G were derived from nanoindentations. Critical loads for cementation radial fracture in G/Z/G plates (20mmx20mm, 1.5 or 0.4mm thick) bonded to polycarbonate substrates were determined by loading with a spherical indenter. Parallel studies were conducted on homogeneous yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP) controls. RESULTS The G/Z/G structure consists of an outer surface aesthetic glass layer, a graded glass-Y-TZP layer, and a dense Y-TZP interior. The Young's modulus and hardness increase from surface to interior following power-law relations. For G/Z/G plates of 1.5 and 0.4mm thick, critical loads for cementation radial fracture were 1990+/-107N (mean+/-S.D., n=6) and 227+/-20N (mean+/-S.D., n=6), respectively, which were approximately 30 and 50% higher than those for their monolithic Y-TZP counterparts (1388+/-90N for 1.5mm and 113+/-10N for 0.4mm thick; mean+/-S.D., n=6 for each thickness). A 1-sample t-test revealed significant difference (p<0.001) in critical loads for radial fracture of G/Z/G and homogeneous Y-TZP for both specimen thicknesses. SIGNIFICANCE Our results indicate that functionally graded G/Z/G structures exhibit improved damage resistance, aesthetics, and potentially cementation properties compared to homogeneous Y-TZP.

Abstract
Zirconia-based restorations often fracture from chipping and/or delamination of the porcelain veneers. We hypothesized that veneer chipping/delamination is a result of the propagation of near-contact-induced partial cone cracks on the occlusal surface under mastication. Masticatory loading involves the opposing tooth sliding along the cuspal inner incline surface with an applied biting force. To test this hypothesis, we cemented flat porcelain-veneered zirconia plates onto dental composites and cyclically loaded them (contact-slide-liftoff) at an inclination angle as a simplified model of zirconia-based restorations under occlusion. In light of in situ observation of damage evolution in a transparent glass/zirconia/polycarbonate trilayer, post mortem damage evaluation of porcelain/zirconia/composite trilayers by a sectioning technique revealed that deep-penetrating occlusal surface partial cone fracture is the predominant fracture mode of porcelain veneers. Clinical relevance is discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE (1) To systematically review the existing literature on in vitro assessments of antagonist wear of ceramic materials; (2) To systematically evaluate possible influencing factors on material and antagonist wear of ceramic specimens. METHODS The database MEDLINE was searched with the terms "enamel," "wear" and "antagonist." The selected studies were analyzed with regard to wear parameters, type of antagonist and outcome. In the laboratory study, three ceramic materials were selected with different compositions and physical properties: IPS d.SIGN low-fusing metal ceramic, IPS Empress leucite ceramic, e.max Press lithium disilicate ceramic. These materials were subjected to the Ivoclar wear method (Willytec chewing simulator, 120,000cycles, 5kg weight) by systematically modifying the following variables which resulted in 36 tests with 8 specimens in each group: (1) configuration (flat, crown specimen), (2) surface treatment (polish, glaze), (3) type of antagonist (ceramic, two types of enamel stylus). Furthermore, the enamel styluses were cut to measure the enamel thickness and cusp width. Wear of both the material and the antagonist was quantified by scanning plaster replicas of the specimens with a laser scanner (etkon es1) and matching baseline and follow-up data with the Match 3D software (Willytec). The data were log-transformed to stabilize the variance and achieve near normality. To test the influence of specific test parameters, a four-way ANOVA with post hoc tests and Bonferroni correction was applied. RESULTS The systematic review revealed 20 in vitro studies in which a material and the antagonist wear of the same material was examined. However, the results were inconsistent mainly due to the fact that the test parameters differed widely. Most studies used prepared enamel from extracted molars as the antagonist and flat polished ceramic specimens. The test chamber was filled with water and some sort of sliding movement was integrated in the wear generating process. However, there was a huge variation in relation to the applied force, the used force actuator, the number of cycles, and the frequency of cycles per time as well as the number of specimens. The results of the systematic laboratory tests revealed that the following factors strongly influence the wear: configuration (more material wear of flat versus crown specimens), surface treatment (more antagonist wear of glazed versus polished specimens), the antagonist system (more material wear and less antagonist wear for ceramic stylus versus enamel stylus), and enamel thickness (less wear for thicker enamel). Material wear was not very much different between the materials. However, e.max Press generally caused more antagonist wear than the other two materials, which were quite similar. However, the main influencing factors did not yield consistent results for all the subgroups and there was a huge variability of results within the subgroups especially in those groups that used enamel as antagonist. SIGNIFICANCE As far as consistency and correlation with clinical studies is concerned, the set-up that consists of unprepared enamel of molar cusps against glazed crowns seems to be the most appropriate method to evaluate a ceramic material with regard to antagonist wear. However, due to the high variability of results large sample sizes are necessary to differentiate between materials, which calls the whole in vitro approach into question.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the wear of six composite resins for the veneering of crowns compared with the wear of human and bovine enamel, tested in a dual-axis chewing simulator. METHODS Eight specimens of six different composite resins (Targis I+II, Solidex, BelleglassHP, Estenia, Solidex) and of human and bovine enamel were prepared. Steatite ceramic balls served as antagonistic specimens. Specimens were dynamically loaded in a dual-axis chewing simulator with 49 N up to 1,200,000 loading cycles with additional thermal cycling between 5 and 55 degrees C. After 120,000, 240,000, 480,000, 840,000 and 1,200,000 loading cycles, an impression of the specimens' surface and the antagonistic specimen was taken using a polyvinylsiloxane impression material. The substance loss at the surface was measured with computer-aided laser profilometry. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and the Tukey test. RESULTS The wear of the ultra fine compact filled composite resins Solidex and BelleglassHP was not statistically significantly different from that of human enamel. The other composite resins and bovine enamel showed a wear statistically significantly higher than human enamel. SIGNIFICANCE Comparing six composite resins for the veneering of crowns, ultra fine compact filled composite resins BelleGlassHP and Solidex showed a wear not significantly different from the wear of human and bovine enamel.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to design an experimental model that allowed extensive endodontic interim restorations to be tested for dye penetration while under simulated masticatory load. Extracted premolar teeth had standardized mesio-occluso-distal cavities prepared, and the root canals were instrumented. A cotton wool pellet was placed in the pulp chamber, and the cavities were restored with Cavit, IRM, Ketac-Fil Plus, Ketac-Silver, or composite resin (Z100). They were subjected to the equivalent of 3 months of clinical load while exposed to methylene blue dye. Results of this study could not support IRM as a suitable interim endodontic restorative material to use in extensive cavities. The dye penetration in the Ketac-Fil Plus and Ketac-Silver specimens was not predictable, and the results suggested Cavit and Z100 composite resin require further investigations as potentially useful materials for this purpose.

Abstract
One of the main aims of endodontic treatment is to eliminate micro-organisms from within the root canal system. A further aim is to prevent the ingress of any further bacteria during and after treatment. These aims are usually achieved by various means and stages throughout the treatment process. Endodontic treatment is usually performed on teeth that have lost the integrity of the external coronal tooth structure which has allowed bacteria to enter the tooth and ultimately reach the pulp space. Further opening of the tooth occurs when an endodontic access cavity is made to allow treatment to be performed. Hence, there will always be a need for interim and temporary restoration of teeth undergoing endodontic treatment. Many different materials and techniques have been proposed, and these proposals have been based on many research reports. The purposes of this article are to review the literature regarding the use of interim and temporary restorations, and to provide recommendations regarding such restorations for clinicians to follow when providing endodontic treatment.
