Filter by:The most frequent reason for failure of laminate veneers made of glass ceramics (feldspathic, leucite based and lithium silicate based ceramics) was fracture of the ceramic, Therefore, ceramic materials that have higher fracture resistance, especially for patients suffering from abnormal occlusion, are needed.
Restoration of anterior teeth using conservative approach allows clinicians to provide porcelain laminate veneers with excellent esthetics without extensive tooth structure removal. laminate veneers need the use of etch-able ceramics like glass ceramics (E.max) and hybrid ceramics (Lava Ultimate). The aim of this study is to compare both e.max and lava ultimate veneers clinically.
Light curing cements used for laminate veneers may be not totally cured in certain areas, so dual cured resin cements may solve this problem yet the dual cured cements containing amines cause yellowish discoloration of the veneers after time. A new dual cured cement which is amine free is introduced so the investigators have to try it clinically using parallel groups in randomized clinical trial.
Patients need laminate veneer for their teeth usually use Emax CAD as an etchable ceramic. Yet fracture may occur so a stronger material is needed. Vita Suprinity is a recent material with glass ceramic enriched with zirconia (approx. 10% by weight) that offer practices and laboratories a high-strength, zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate ceramic (ZLS) and can be used to fabricate laminate veneers but the investigators have to know clinically it is fracture resistance, so the investigators are going to have Parallel groups in a randomized clinical trial.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a novel gum health formulation, when used in an intra-oral device or on a toothbrush, for teeth whitening and clinical improvements in periodontal diseases.
Compare teeth sensitivity using bleaching protocol with different light intensities (Philips Zoom!™ White Speed whitening gel and lamp, Discus Dental, Inc., Culver City, CA, USA.) versus bleaching protocol with the same light intensity (Philips Zoom!™ Advanced Power whitening gel and lamp, Discus Dental, Inc., Culver City, CA, USA.).
The investigators aim to evaluate a sage-based mouthrinse (Dr. Hauschka Med, Mundspülung Salbei) whether it is less or equal effective in alleviating inflammatory signs of intra-oral mucosa and gingiva than an water/alcohol-based taste adjusted placebo in patients dependent on ADL. Randomization in treatment A (mouthwash with active agent, n=24) or treatment B (placebo mouthwash, n=24) Supervised use of mouthwash A or mouthwash B over 6 weeks 1x/day additional to habitual oral hygiene protocol. The main outcome parameter will be Sulcus Bleeding Index SBI.
To evaluate the efficacy, safety and impact on quality of life related to oral health of home and office tooth whitening techniques in young individuals.
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this clinical randomized, double-blind clinical study was to assess the markers levels of RANKL IL-1B and OPGL, involved in the external cervical resorption as a primary outcome, and change color effectiveness in patients undergoing intracoronary bleaching. METHOD: 46 volunteers (50 teeth) participated with discoloration on non-vital teeth, with the endodontic treatment in good condition. Patients were randomly located into two study groups according to product G1 = 35% hydrogen peroxide (n = 25) and G2 = 37% carbamide peroxide (n = 25). The intracameral bleaching was performed with a walking bleaching technique of 4 sessions Gingivocrevicular transudate samples were taken to determine levels of Il1b, RANKL, and OPGL with absorbent paper (Periopaper®), they are obtained from six sites per tooth bleaching: 3 vestibular and three palatine (mesial, middle and distal), in 6 opportunities: Baseline, after 4-sessions of intracameral bleaching and a one week after treatment. Total proteins are quantified by Bradford ® system and from the eluted sample of RANKL, IL 1b and OPGL levels measured by ELISA (Quantikine®; R&D Systems Inc.). The color was evaluated in each session with Vita EasyShade spectrophotometer is used with the CIEL*a*b system to measure the total variation in color (ΔE), between the baseline and the different evaluation times.
The aim of the study is to assess the marginal fit following preparation finishing with ultrasonic tips of porcelain veneers compared to the ordinary preparation using burs only. Two-hundred and forty crowns prepared to receive porcelain veneers (in a split-mouth design). On one side of the mouth, the prepared surfaces will be finished with ultrasonic tips. Marginal fit is measured by a 'cement replica technique'.
