Adhesion Between Yttrium Stabilised Zirconia Ceramic And Indirect Composite Resin
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the bond energy of three indirect restorative composite veneering materials to Yittrium stabilised zirconia (YZr) by using the strain energy release rate testing ... -
Dental Technology Services and Industry Trends in New Zealand
Objective: This cross-sectional survey provides a snapshot of the New Zealand dental technology industry and identifies the range and cost of dental laboratory services. Background: Developing an understanding on the ... -
The effect of loading conditions on a Kennedy Class I implant-assisted removable partial denture
Objective: To evaluate the strain behaviour of the Kennedy Class I implant-assisted removable partial denture (IARPD) distal extension area under various loading conditions to better understand the strain pattern. Method: ... -
The effect of surface roughness, produced by ultrasonic scaling, on biofilm formation and integrity on selected restorative materials
Aims: The aim of this research was to compare the effects of ultrasonic scaling on the surface roughness of various dental materials, subsequent biofilm formation, and biofilm integrity challenged by brushing. Methods: ... -
The influence of single and double implants on the strain distribution of mandibular metal-reinforced overdentures
Objective: To evaluate the influence of single and double implants on strain distribution of mandibular metal-reinforced overdentures and compare this to a mandibular metal-reinforced complete denture. Materials and ... -
The Influence of Toothbrush Abrasion and Wear Performance of Glass-Ceramic and Resin-infiltrated Restorative Materials
Objective: The in vitro investigation of the wear performance of a glass-ceramic and two resin-infiltrated restorative materials when subjected to simulated toothbrushing. Materials and Methods: Three groups (n=13): ... -
The influence of undercut depths on the accuracy of casts poured from irreversible hydrocolloid impression materials.
Abstract Background: Making accurate partial dentures is one of the greatest challenges in the treatment of patients with partial edentulous. Positional teeth movements create undercuts that must be accurately recorded ...
