Abstract
BACKGROUND Polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) was recently introduced as an alternative to titanium and ceramic implant abutments due to its apparent ability to dissipate excessive strain around dental implants. However, the biomechanical behaviors of implant abutment crown systems may change depending on the crown and abutment material combinations used. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to assess how the crown material affects strain generation and fracture resistance of PEKK hybrid abutment crowns. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixteen dummy implants (Ø 3.7 x 11 mm), simulating maxillary first premolars, were restored with 16 milled PEKK hybrid abutments and randomly categorized into two groups according to the crown material (n = 8): Group C, milled composite crowns cemented on PEKK hybrid abutments; and Group Z, ultra-translucent zirconia crowns cemented on PEKK hybrid abutments. Before thermocycling, a cyanoacrylate-base adhesive was used to position two strain gauges on buccal and lingual crestal bone surfaces, and a vertical load (100 N) was applied to the central fossa to record the strain generated. Then, all samples were thermocycled between 5°C and 55°C before being loaded to fracture on a universal testing machine. Modes of failure were observed under an optical microscope, and representative samples were examined using a scanning electron microscope. Independent t-tests were used for intergroup comparisons. The significance level was set at (p < 0.05) for all tests.. RESULTS The results showed a significant difference between both groups. The zirconia group recorded significantly higher strain and fracture resistance values than the composite group (p < 0.001). There was a positive correlation between the strain developed in peri-implant crestal bone and fracture resistance of the abutment crown complex. CONCLUSIONS Strains developed in both groups were within the acceptable clinical range. The crown material substantially impacted the strain and fracture of the PEKK hybrid abutment crown system.

Abstract
Objective: to evaluate the effect of scaling procedures using different ultrasonic tips on the surface roughness, color stability and bacterial accumulation of lithium disilicate ceramic. Material and Methods: Scaling procedure was carried out using ultrasonic scaler (Satalec, Acteon, North America) with stainless-steel tip (US), titanium tip (UT) and plastic tip (UP), on disc shaped lithium disilicate samples cemented into a cavity prepared onto the labial surface of freshly extracted bovine teeth (10 samples per group). The samples were stored in coffee solution in an incubator at 37°C for 12 days, which is equivalent to 1 year of coffee consumption. The surface roughness was measured before and after the scaling procedure using a profilometer and atomic force microscopy. The color parameters were measured before and after scaling and staining procedures using VITA Easyshade Advance 4.0 according to the CIE L*a*b* color order system. The samples were then incubated with Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) suspension. After incubation, the plates with 30 to 300 typical colonies of S. mutans were counted in a colony counter and mean values of colony forming units were obtained (CFU/mL). Results: The titanium scaling tip showed a statistically significant higher mean values of change in surface roughness Ra and bacterial count than the plastic scaling tip. Color changes (E) were not a statistically significant among the groups. The results showed a statistically significant positive (direct) correlation between surface roughness and color change (p = 0.012) and also between surface roughness and bacterial count (p = 0.00).
Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, titanium scaling instruments cause irreversible surface alterations of lithium disilcate ceramics which was in direct correlation to the color changes and bacterial accumulation; therefore, dentists should proceed with caution when scaling lithium disilicate surfaces. The findings of the current study may indicate the need for instruments or equipment that can remove plaque and calculus without causing surface damage.

Abstract
Objective:This clinical study was conducted to evaluate the effect of immediate loading on peri-implant soft tissue health using three protocols: i) Immediate functional loading using polymer infiltrated ceramic (PIC) material (IFLV). ii)Immediate functional loading using polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) followed by delayed functional loading using PIC material (IFLP). iii) Immediate non-functional loading using PMMA followed by delayed functional loading using PIC material (INFLP). Material & Methods: 30 Implants were placed in the upper premolar area and divided randomly according to the immediate loading protocol. In the control group (INFLP), CAD/CAM PMMA crowns were placed out of occlusion for 3 months, and then replaced by CAD/CAM VITA ENAMIC crowns in functional occlusion. For (IFLV) group, CAD/CAM VITA ENAMIC crowns were immediately loaded in functional occlusion; while in (IFLP) group, CAD/CAM PMMA crowns were placed in functional occlusion for 3 months, and then replaced by CAD/CAM VITA ENAMIC crowns. Modified pink esthetic score (MPES) and probing depth were used for evaluation of peri-implant soft tissue at base line and follow up periods. Results: INFLP showed higher MPES results compared to IFLV and IFLP. Moreover, the INFLP probing depth at 3 months showed higher results compared to the other groups. Conclusions: Immediate non-functional loading showed the best outcomes. However, peri-implant soft tissue health of the immediate functional loading using the PIC crown material was clinically acceptable.Key WordsPolymer infiltrated ceramics, immediate dental implant loading, peri-implant soft tissue health.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of three two-retainer designs of a resin-bonded fixed dental prosthesis (RBFDP) on fracture resistance. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 21 three-unit, all-ceramic RBFPDs were fabricated to replace a missing maxillary lateral incisor. The prostheses were divided into three groups of 7 each: Group L (labial RBFPD); Group ML (modified labial RBFPD, fabricated the same as in Group L with additional preparation that included a shallow proximal groove at the pontic side); and Group P, an all-ceramic palatal RBFPD that acted as control. Preparations were done on the maxillary left central incisor and canine of a typodont model, and 21 epoxy resin models were duplicated for the three groups. The RBFPDs were designed using CAD software and constructed using the heat-pressed technique, after which the prostheses were bonded to their corresponding epoxy resin model according to the manufacturer's instructions. A fracture resistance test was performed on all specimens following aging. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA. RESULTS The highest fracture load values were recorded in Group P (547.5 N), followed by Group ML (462.6 N) and then Group L (418.3 N). The difference among the three designs was not statistically significant (F = 2.5, P = 0.1). CONCLUSION Both labial and modified labial RBFDPs could be a viable alternative treatment option for replacement of missing maxillary lateral incisors.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate ability of Nano Ceramic Composite endocrown to withstand occlusal forces when used in the anterior region. Material and Methods: Eighty endodontically treated maxillary central incisors teeth were randomly divided into two main groups according to the restoration type. 40 of these teeth were post, core and crown restorations and 40 were endocrown restorations. Then they were divided by halves into two subgroups according to the material used 20 were made with Lava Ultimate and the other 20 with IPS e.max. Each subgroup was then further subdivided into two divisions according to the remaining tooth structure above the CEJ (n=10): 2 mm and 0.5 mm above the CEJ. After teeth preparation, the restorations were all made by CAD/CAM system (Cerec MCXL). All samples had undergone cyclic fatigue testing, and then loaded to fracture using a universal testing machine. The specimens were measured and statistically analyzed using Mann-Whitney test for comparing the mean changes between the groups. Results: Lava Ultimate showed higher mean fracture load values than IPS e.max specimens. Conclusion: Endocrowns were found to be more favorable when used on endodontically treated teeth than the conventional post, core and crown restorations.KEYWORDSEndocrowns; All-ceramic; Fracture; Cyclic loading.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This in vitro study was conducted to assess the marginal adaptation and fracture resistance of computer aided design/computer aided manufacturer (CAD-CAM) fabricated endocrowns restoring endodontically treated molars using different machinable blocks with thermomechanical loading protocols. MATERIALS AND METHODS Devitalized mandibular molars were prepared in a standardized way and divided into 4 groups (n = 10) to receive CAD/CAM fabricated endocrowns using four materials (Lithium disilicate ceramics, polymer infiltrated ceramics, zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate ceramics and resin nanoceramics. Marginal gaps (µm) were measured using stereomicroscope before cementation and after cementation. After thermomechanical aging, marginal gap measurements were repeated, and then fracture resistance test was performed. Two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey HSD multiple comparisons were used to assess the effect of material on the marginal gap before, after cementation, and after thermomechanical aging. One Way ANOVA was used to assess the effect of material on the fracture resistance. RESULTS The difference between marginal gaps values of the tested materials was statistically insignificant but with significant increase after cementation and after thermomechanical aging. Cerasmart endocrowns showed the highest mean fracture load value (1508.5 ± 421.7N) with statistically significant difference than Vita Enamic endocrowns and Celtra Duo. CONCLUSION The tested materials showed marginal vertical gap readings within the limits of clinically acceptable standards. Resin nanoceramics and lithium disilicate showed the highest values of fracture resistance followed by polymer infiltrated ceramics favoring their use for endocrown restorations. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The mechanical behavior of ceramic materials varies with the variation of their structure and mechanical properties. Accordingly, further investigation is always needed to explore the biomechanical behavior of recent materials when used as endocrowns before clinical trials.

Abstract
PURPOSE Aim of this study was to evaluate the tensile bond strength (TBS) between resin cement and zirconia surface treated in different sintering stages. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty zirconia discs having final dimensions of 12 mm diameter and 3.2 mm thickness were milled then divided into three main groups according to the type of surface treatment performed (group 1: air abrasion using 50 µm Al2O3 particles, group 2: silica coating using Rocatec soft, and group 3: a control group receiving no surface treatment). Groups 1 and 2 were divided into two subgroups each according to the stage in which the surface treatment was performed (subgroup A; surface treatment performed in the pre-sintered stage and subgroup B; surface treatment performed in the post-sintered stage). Discs were later bonded to composite core materials using resin cement then tested for TBS either being subjected to 3 days of water storage or 150 days of water storage and 37,500 thermal cycles. RESULTS Long-term aging caused a significant decrease in TBS of all subgroups except the subgroup air-abraded in the post-sintered stage. After long-term aging, the group silica coated in the pre-sintered stage showed the significantly lowest TBS compared to all other groups. There was also no significant difference between the subgroups air-abraded and silica coated in the pre-sintered stage. All specimens in the control group debonded during long-term aging. SIGNIFICANCE Air-abrading zirconia with Al2O3 at a reduced pressure in the pre-sintered stage may result in durable bond strength to resin cement.
