Ulku SG, Unlu N. Factors influencing the longevity of posterior composite restorations: A dental university clinic study. Heliyon 2024; 10:e27735. [PMID: 38509902 PMCID: PMC10950679 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e27735] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2023] [Revised: 02/25/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Objectives This retrospective study aimed to assess the performance of posterior composite resin restorations (PCRRs) and evaluate the influence of patient-specific factors on restoration outcomes. Methods A total of 189 PCRRs were examined in 54 patients, with evaluations based on Modified USPHS criteria. Patient-specific factors were analyzed. Statistical analyses, including chi-square tests, independent samples t-tests, and ANOVA tests, were conducted. Results Patients aged over 50 exhibited higher DMFT averages and a higher rate of unsuccessful restorations. Despite higher DMFT scores in females, gender doesn't significantly impact restoration outcomes. Secondary caries correlated with.plaque scores, significantly affecting restoration survival. Marginal adaptation, retention deficiencies, and secondary caries were primary causes of failure. Multi-surface restorations faced higher failure risk due to elevated plaque scores. Class-V restorations showed a higher failure rate, challenging the number of surfaces and longevity correlation. Conclusions This study identified key factors influencing posterior composite resin restorations-(PCRRs) in patients over 50, including higher DMFT averages and more unsuccessful restorations. No significant difference was found between brushing; frequency and DMFT rates, possibly due to the absence of non-brushers. Secondary caries; correlated with elevated plaque scores, impacting restoration survival. Primary causes of; failure included marginal adaptation issues, retention deficiencies, and secondary caries, with multi-surface restorations facing a higher risk. However, tooth vitality, beverage and acidic food consumption, and oral hygiene habits did not significantly affect PCRR outcomes. Clinical significance Patient-specific factors significantly impact PCRRs' long-term performance. Dentists must tailor strategies, emphasizing regular monitoring and preventive measures for extended survival.

[PMID: 37473575 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2023.106030] [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: 06/02/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/15/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This in-vitro study is planned to analyze the effect of different thicknesses of ceramic occlusal veneers and different surface treatments on fracture resistance. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 48 sound mandibular molars are anatomically prepared from the occlusal surface with two different thicknesses (1.0 and 0.5 mm). CAD/CAM zirconia-reinforced glass ceramic blocks (Vita Suprinity) are used for fabricating occlusal veneers. The teeth are randomly divided into two primary groups A and B (n=24) according to occlusal veneer thickness. Each group is subdivided according to surface conditioning into three equal subgroups (n=8)-subgroup HF: etching with hydrofluoric acid and ceramic primer application; subgroup APF: etching with acidulated phosphate fluoride and ceramic primer application; subgroup EP: conditioning with etch and prime only. Dual-cure adhesive resin cement (Multilink Automix) is utilized to adhesively bond the veneers. All specimens are subjected to 240,000 cycles of dynamic load aging prior to the fracture resistance test. The fracture resistance is measured in Newton (N). The Failure mode patterns are analyzed and categorized using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results are analyzed using a two-way ANOVA with Bonferroni's Post-Hoc test, followed by a one-way ANOVA for each factor. That is in addition to one-way ANOVA for surface treatment under each thickness, each followed by Bonferroni's Post-Hoc test. Then, a T-test is used to compare the two thicknesses under each surface treatment. All tests are set at 0.05 significance level. RESULTS The two-way ANOVA test revealed that restoration thickness and surface treatment both significantly affect the fracture resistance values (p<0.05). The highest fracture resistance mean (2672±216N) is obtained from HF at 1.0 mm thickness, while the lowest mean (2104±299N) is obtained from APF at 0.5 mm thickness. CONCLUSION All test groups, regardless of thickness, demonstrated fracture resistance values that exceeded both normal and parafunctional bite forces. The veneers that bonded after hydrofluoric acid etching followed by ceramic primer application showed more favourable fracture patterns.

Effectiveness of immediate dentine sealing and resin coating in reducing dental sensitivity in a child with idiopathic neuropathy and anterior dental attrition: Case report. SPECIAL CARE IN DENTISTRY 2023; 43:679-684. [PMID: 36336464 DOI: 10.1111/scd.12799] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2022] [Revised: 10/08/2022] [Accepted: 10/19/2022] [Indexed: 09/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Idiopathic neuropathy is a peripheral nervous system disorder of unknown etiology. Patients with this disorder often suffer from bruxism problems. Bruxism is defined as an oral parafunction characterized by occlusal contacts resulting from non-physiological, repetitive, and involuntary masticatory motor activities. These events can trigger accentuated wear of the tooth structure leading to sensitivity. Tooth sensitivity is the pain arising from the exposed dentin in response to chemical, thermal, tactile, or osmotic stimuli that cannot be explained as the result of any other dental defect or disease. Sensitivity treatment using adhesive systems has a long-term or permanent effect. Therefore, this article is aimed at describing the management of dental sensitivity, through dentin sealing and resin coating techniques, during the dental restoration process of a child with idiopathic neuropathy and dental attrition in the anterior sector. All of this, with the consideration of using the minimal intervention philosophy. CASE PRESENTATION A 6-year-old male patient diagnosed with idiopathic neuropathy and suffering from multiple dental attritions with dental sensitivity in the upper anterior teeth. With the clinical-radiographic evaluation, the family history, and the interconsultations with the neuropaediatrics service, the definitive diagnosis of dental sensitivity due to stage-3 moderate attrition was obtained, for which rehabilitation of the upper anterior sector was planned through the use of immediate dentin sealing (IDS) and resin coating (RC). CONCLUSION The use of IDS and RC techniques shows acceptable sensitivity, which is why these techniques are recommended in cases of moderate attrition in early mixed dentition. The immediate rehabilitation along with the stamping technique improved the aesthetic and functional aspects. Therefore, it is advisable to use them immediately after dentin sealing.

Effect of immediate dentin sealing on load-bearing capacity under accelerated fatigue of thin occlusal veneers made of CAD-CAM glass-ceramic and resin composite material. Dent Mater 2023; 39:372-382. [PMID: 36922258 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2023.03.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2022] [Revised: 02/05/2023] [Accepted: 03/03/2023] [Indexed: 03/16/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to assess the influence of immediate dentin sealing (IDS) on the fatigue behavior of laminate occlusal veneers fabricated with CAD/CAM lithium disilicate ceramic and resin composite. METHODS Forty sound human molars were prepared and randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 10): RC-IDS+ (IDS and resin composite occlusal laminate veneer); RC-IDS- (resin composite occlusal laminate veneer without IDS); LD-IDS+ (IDS and lithium disilicate laminate veneer); LD-IDS- (lithium disilicate occlusal laminate veneer without IDS). The restorations were obtained using a digital workflow. After surface conditioning and bonding, thermocycling and accelerated fatigue tests (20 Hz, 5000 cycles with an initial load of 300 N, step-size of 100 N for 10,000 cycles, up to 1000 N, and then a step-size of 50 N until failure) were conducted. Fatigue data were recorded for both outcomes (crack or fracture) and statistically analyzed. Fractographic and adhesive interface analysis were conducted. RESULTS The indirect resin composite groups showed better fatigue behavior compared to lithium disilicate. IDS only had a positive effect for the survival of resin composite restorations for the 'fracture' outcome. Evident presence of micro-gaps at the adhesive interface in the LD-IDS- group could be noted. SIGNIFICANCE Immediate dentin sealing improved fatigue resistance behavior of resin composite occlusal veneers. However, this effect was not observed in lithium disilicate veneers.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the fracture behavior of inlay-retained fixed partial dentures (IRFPDs) made of experimental short fiber-reinforced composite (SFRC) computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) block before and after cyclic fatigue aging. METHODS Five groups (n=20/group) of three-unit posterior IRFPDs were fabricated. The first and second groups were CAD/CAM fabricated from experimental SFRC blocks or lithium-disilicate (IPS e.max CAD, IVOCLAR) materials, the third group comprised a three-dimensional-printed composite (Temp PRINT, GC), and the fourth and fifth groups comprised conventional laboratory flowable composite (Gradia Plus, GC) and commercial flowable SFRC (everX Flow, GC), respectively. All IRFPDs were luted into a metal jig with adhesive dual-cure resin cement (RelyX Ultimate, 3M ESPE). Half the IRFPDs per group (n=10) were subjected to fatigue aging for 10,000 cycles. The remaining half were statically loaded until fracture without fatigue aging. The load was applied vertically between triangular ridges of the buccal and lingual cusps. The fracture mode was visually examined using optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Data were statistically analyzed using a two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey's HSD test. RESULTS ANOVA revealed that IRFPDs made of experimental SFRC CAD/CAM had the highest (p<0.05) load-bearing capacity before (2624±463 N) and after (2775±297 N) aging among all groups. Cyclic fatigue aging decreased the load-bearing capacity (p>0.05) of all tested prostheses, except for the experimental SFRC CAD/CAM and conventional laboratory composite IRFPDs (p>0.05). SEM images showed the ability of discontinuous short fibers in the experimental SFRC CAD/CAM composite to redirect and hinder crack propagation. CONCLUSION CAD/CAM-fabricated IRFPDs made of experimental SFRC blocks showed promising performance in clinical testing in terms of fracture behavior.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In-vivo experimental techniques to understand the biomechanical behavior of a restored tooth, under varying oral conditions, is very limited because of the invasive nature of the study and complex tooth geometry structure. Therefore, 3D-Finite element analyses are used to understand the behavior of a restored tooth under varying oral conditions. In this study, the distribution of maximum principal stress (MaxPS) and the location of MaxPS on a restored tooth using six different commercially available dental resin composites under the influence of thermal and thermomechanical stimuli are performed. METHODS An intact tooth was scanned using µ-CT and segmented to obtain separate geometric models of the tooth, including enamel and dentine. Then, a class II mesial-occlusal-distal (MOD) cavity was constructed for the tooth model. The restored tooth model was further meshed and imported to the commercial Finite Element (FE) software ANSYS. Thermal hot and cold stimuli at 50 °C and 2 °C, respectively, were applied on the occlusal and lingual surface of the tooth model with the tooth's ambient temperature set at 37 °C. A uniform loading of 400 N was applied on the occlusal surface of the tooth to imitate the masticatory forces during the cyclic thermal stimuli. RESULTS The results of this study showed that the restorative materials with higher thermal conductivity showed a lower temperature gradient between the restoration and enamel, during the application of thermal stimuli, leading to a higher value of MaxPS on the restoration. Moreover, on applying thermal stimuli, the location of MaxPS at the restoration-enamel junction (REJ) changes based on the value of the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). The MaxPS distribution on the application of simultaneous thermal and mechanical stimuli was not only dependent on the elastic modulus of restorative materials but also their thermal properties such as the CTE and thermal conductivity. The weakest part of the restoration was at the REJ, as it experienced the peak stress level during the application of thermomechanical stimuli. SIGNIFICANCE The findings from this study suggest that restorative materials with lower values of elastic modulus, lower coefficient of thermal expansion and higher values of thermal conductivity result in lower stresses on the restoration. The outcomes from this study also suggest that the thermal and mechanical properties of a restorative material can have a considerable effect on the selection of restorative materials by dental clinicians over conventional restorative materials.

Abstract
Dental ceramics are well known for restoring the function and aesthetic of lost or damaged teeth. Understanding these materials’ mechanical and aesthetic properties can make a suitable choice for those materials. The longevity of dental ceramics depends on several factors, including manufacturing method, clinical process, and the oral cavity’s aqueous environment. Failure mechanisms in restorative ceramics are complex and a combination of several factors. Different microstructures in the crystalline phase will involve the propagation of cracks and eventually the fatigue of ceramic materials. Large grains reduce mechanical performance compared to small grain sizes. Aesthetic materials used for veneering are weaker than the core materials and fail when even subjected to small loads. The soft bonding in the core–veneer interface and possible residual stresses created during the veneering method are drawbacks of these systems. Studies on the mechanical behavior of these materials have grown significantly in recent years and provide helpful information about static and fatigue experimentation and the failure behavior of various materials used in dental crowns.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the morphology accuracy of direct occlusal veneer using two types of modified stamp-technique, comparing the Results of two types of stamp and different composite resin. METHODS Model scanner was used to get the original data from the standard resin teeth in plastic model. Two types of stamps were made: solid silicon stamp and transparent silicon stamp. In the study, 54 resin tooth were randomly divided into 9 groups: Groups 1-8 were restored by direct composite resin, using general and bulk-filled composite resin in occlusal veneer (1 mm or 2 mm) with two types of stamp-technique (the solid silicon, and the transparent silicon), and the control group was restored by indirect way using CAD/CAM composite resin restoration by biocopy technique to mimic the original shape of the teeth. After the resin teeth were prepared for occlusal veneer, the direct and indirect composite resins were restored. After the restoration was finished, the data were obtained again by the same model scanner in the plastic model. 3D comparisons were made using the original and restoration data, the average difference and the root mean square of difference (RMS) were recoded from the software. The RMS of all the groups were analyzed using one way ANOVA (α=0.05). RESULTS The RMS of occlusal surface in solid silicon stamp group was (0.136±0.031) mm, in transparent silicon group was (0.130±0.024) mm, and in control group was (0.130±0.009) mm. There were no significant difference. While the RMS of buccal/lingual surface in solid silicon stamp group was the smallest [(0.135±0.020) mm, P < 0.05], and in transparent silicon group it was (0.147±0.021) mm, and control group (0.153±0.014) mm. The general composite resin using the two types of stamp had the largest occlusal RMS in 2 mm occlusal veneer, which were significantly larger than control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The direct occlusal veneer using two types of modified "stamp-technique" had relatively good morphology accuracy. Direct occlusal veneer using bulk-filled composite resin made with two types of stamp technique had even more accurate morphology than using general composite resin. The solid silicon stamp had a better morphology accuracy in buccal/lingual surface than the transparent silicon stamp.

The aim of this study was to quantify and to compare the wear rates of premolar (PM) and molar (M) restorations of lithium disilicate ceramic (LS2) and an experimental CAD/CAM polymer (COMP) in cases of complex rehabilitations with changes in vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO). Twelve patients with severe tooth wear underwent prosthetic rehabilitation, restoring the VDO with antagonistic occlusal coverage restorations either out of LS2 (n = 6 patients, n = 16 posterior restorations/patient; N = 96 restorations/year) or COMP (n = 6 patients; n = 16 posterior restorations/patient; N = 96 restorations/year). Data was obtained by digitalization of plaster casts with a laboratory scanner at annual recalls (350 ± 86 days; 755 ± 92 days; 1102 ± 97 days). Each annual recall dataset of premolar and molar restorations (N = 192) was overlaid individually with the corresponding baseline dataset using an iterative best-fit method. Mean vertical loss of the occlusal contact areas (OCAs) was calculated for each restoration and recall time. For LS2 restorations, the mean wear rate per month over 1 year was 7.5 ± 3.4 μm (PM), 7.8 ± 2.0 μm (M), over 2 years 3.8 ± 1.6 µm (PM), 4.4 ± 1.5 µm (M), over 3 years 2.8 ± 1.3 µm (PM), 3.4 ± 1.7 µm (M). For COMP restorations, the mean wear rate per month over 1 year was 15.5 ± 8.9 μm (PM), 28.5 ± 20.2 μm (M), over 2 years 9.2 ± 5.9 µm (PM), 16.7 ± 14.9 µm (M), over 3 years 8.6 ± 5.3 µm (PM), 9.5 ± 8.0 µm (M). Three COMP restorations fractured after two years and therefore were not considered in the 3-year results. The wear rates in the LS2 group showed significant differences between premolars and molars restorations (p = 0.041; p = 0.023; p = 0.045). The wear rates in COMP group differed significantly between premolars and molars only in the first two years (p < 0.0001; p = 0.007). COMP restorations show much higher wear rates compared to LS2. The presented results suggest that with increasing time in situ, the monthly wear rates for both materials decreased over time. On the basis of this limited dataset, both LS2 and COMP restorations show reasonable clinical wear rates after 3 years follow-up. Wear of COMP restorations was higher, however prosthodontic treatment was less invasive. LS2 showed less wear, yet tooth preparation was necessary. Clinicians should balance well between necessary preparation invasiveness and long-term occlusal stability in patients with worn dentitions.

The effect of pre-treatment levels of tooth wear and the applied increase in the vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) on the survival of direct resin composite restorations. J Dent 2021; 111:103712. [PMID: 34102230 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2021.103712] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2021] [Revised: 05/28/2021] [Accepted: 06/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the effects of the level of pre-treatment tooth wear and increasing the VDO on the performance of direct resin composite restorations for the rehabilitation of pathological tooth wear. METHODS Full-mouth (pre-treatment) grading was performed on digital greyscale scan records for 34 participants (35.3 ± 8.4 years) with signs of moderate-to-severe generalised tooth wear, using the Tooth Wear Evaluation System and the Basic Erosive Wear Examination. Each participant received full-mouth direct resin composite restorations, with increased VDO. The post-treatment increase in the VDO was determined. Recalls were planned after 1 month, and after 1, 3, and 5 years. Three 'levels' of restoration failure were described. The effects of the variables on the frequencies of restoration failure were calculated with a multivariable Cox regression, (p < 0.05). RESULTS 1269 restorations were placed with a mean observation period of 62.4 months. Increasing the VDO by 1 mm significantly reduced the risks of all levels of anterior restoration failure (HR ≤ 0.62, p ≤ 0.025). A higher anterior BEWE surface score was associated with increased risks of Level 2- & 3- failures, (HR ≥ 1.29, p ≤ 0.019). Premolar restorations showed lower risks of Level 2- & 3- failure, compared to the molar restorations, (HR ≤ 0.5, p ≤ 0.005). CONCLUSION Levels of pre-treatment wear and the applied change in the VDO significantly affected failure risk. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Direct resin composite restorations for the rehabilitation of wear should be made as voluminous as possible, respecting the presenting biological, functional, and esthetic constraints.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Monolithic zirconia crowns have become a viable alternative to conventional layered restorations. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the taper, and thus wall thickness, of the abutment or pre-defined cement space affect the fracture resistance or fracture mode of monolithic zirconia crowns. METHODS A model tooth was prepared with a taper of 15° and a shallow circumferential chamfer preparation (0.5 mm). Two additional models were made based on the master model with a taper of 10° and 30° using computer-aided design software. Twenty monolithic 3rd generation translucent zirconia crowns were produced for each model with pre-defined cement space set to either 30 μm or 60 μm (n = 60). The estimated cement thickness was assessed by the replica method. The cemented crowns were loaded centrally in the occlusal fossa at 0.5 mm/min until fracture. Fractographic analyses were performed on all fractured crowns. RESULTS The load at fracture was statistically significant different between the groups (p < 0.05). The crowns with 30° taper fractured at lower loads than those with 10° and 15° taper, regardless of the cement space (p < 0.05). The fracture origin for 47/60 crowns (78%) was in the cervical area, close to the top of the curvature in the mesial or distal crown margin. The remaining fractures started at the internal surface of the occlusal area and propagated cervically. SIGNIFICANCE The fracture resistance of the monolithic zirconia crowns was lower for crowns with very large taper compared to 10 and 15° taper even though the crown walls were thicker.

Abstract
Adjusting implant abutment for crown delivery is a common practice during implant installation. The purpose of this study was to compare the fracture resistance and stress distribution of zirconia specimens on four occlusal surface areas of implant abutment. Four implant abutment designs [occlusal surface area (SA) SA100, SA75, SA50, and SA25] with 15 zirconia prostheses over the molar area per group were prepared for cyclic loading with 5 Hz, 300 N in a servo-hydraulic testing machine until fracture or automatic stoppage after 30,000 counts. The minimum occlusal thickness of all specimens was 0.5 mm. Four finite element models were simulated under vertical or oblique 10-degree loading to analyze the stress distribution and peak value of zirconia specimens. Data were statistically analyzed, and fracture patterns were observed under a scanning electron microscope. Cyclic loading tests revealed that specimen breakage had moderately strong correlation with the abutment occlusal area (r = 0.475). Specimen breakage differed significantly among the four groups (P = 0.001). The lowest von Mises stress value was measured for prosthesis with a smallest abutment occlusal surface area (SA25) and the thickest zirconia crown. Thicker zirconia specimens (SA25) had higher fracture resistance and lowest stress values under 300 N loading.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine the minimum required thickness of a monolithic zirconia crown in the mandibular posterior area for patients with bruxism. Forty-nine full zirconia crowns, with seven different occlusal thicknesses of 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, and 1.0 mm, were made by using a computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing system (CAD/CAM). Seven crowns in each group were subjected to cyclic loading at 800 N and 5 Hz in a servohydraulic testing machine until fracture or completion of 100,000 cycles. Seven finite element models comprising seven different occlusal thicknesses of 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, and 1.0 mm were simulated using three different loads of vertical 800 N, oblique 10 degrees 800 N, and vertical 800 N + x N torque (x = 10, 50, and 100). The results of cyclic loading tests showed that the fracture resistance of the crown was positively associated with thickness. Specimen breakage differed significantly according to the different thicknesses of the prostheses (p < 0.01). Lowest von Mises stress values were determined for prostheses with a minimal thickness of 1.0 mm in different loading directions and with different forces. Zirconia specimens of 1.0 mm thickness had the lowest stress values and high fracture resistance and under 800 N of loading.

Abstract
Zirconia‐based restorations are showing an increase as the clinicians’ preferred choice at posterior sites because of the strength and esthetic properties of such restorations. However, all‐ceramic restorations fracture at higher rates than do metal‐based restorations. Margin design is one of several factors that can affect the fracture strength of all‐ceramic restorations. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of preparation and crown margin design on fracture resistance. Four groups of bilayer zirconia crowns (with 10 crowns in each group) were produced by hard‐ or soft‐machining technique, with the following four different margin designs: chamfer preparation (control); slice preparation; slice preparation with an additional cervical collar of 0.7 mm thickness; and reduced occlusal thickness (to 0.4 mm) on slice preparation with an additional cervical collar of 0.7 mm thickness. Additionally, 10 hard‐machined crowns with slice preparation were veneered and glazed with feldspathic porcelain. In total, 90 crowns were loaded centrally in the occlusal fossa until fracture. The load at fracture was higher than clinically relevant mastication loads for all preparation and margin designs. The crowns on a chamfer preparation fractured at higher loads compared with crowns on a slice preparation. An additional cervical collar increased load at fracture for hard‐machined crowns.

Abstract
The aim of this article is to describe a systematic approach that facilitates the establishment of a clear and appropriate diagnosis when a dentate patient presents with tooth wear involving their aesthetic zone. It will also detail the protocols that are required to allow for the development of an acceptable aesthetic prescription within the limits of the functional constraints presented by the patient (where active restorative intervention may be indicated), as well as to communicate the manner by which this information can be transferred to ultimately enable the successful and predictable rehabilitation of the affected areas. An overview will also be provided of the tooth-coloured dental materials and restorative techniques that have been commonly applied to deliver the predictable and effective dental care of worn teeth in the aesthetic zone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This clinical follow-up evaluated the long-term outcome of full-mouth rehabilitations with adhesively bonded all-ceramic restorations in patients suffering from amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) or affected by extensive tooth wear including a loss of the vertical dimension of occlusion. MATERIALS AND METHODS Included for evaluation were all patients treated with adhesively bonded monolithic single-tooth restorations made of silicate or lithium disilicate ceramics; allowing a maximum four missing teeth and a facial feldspathic veneering of LDS anterior crowns. After treatment, patients have been enrolled in a recall program for dental check-ups including quality assessment of the restorations. Patients answered the oral health impact profile (OHIP-14) at their last visit. RESULTS Seventeen patients (mean age = 35 ± 18 years) were observed up to 16.5 years (mean: 6.2 ± 3.8 years). 12 out of 450 restorations failed due to core fracture (n = 7), tooth fracture (n = 2), one secondary caries, one chip-off grade 3, and one fixed dental prosthesis due to discomfort. The overall mean survival rate of the single-tooth restorations was estimated 99.4% at 5 and 91.4% at 10 years. The overall mean success rate was estimated 92.6% at 5 and 81.4% at 10 years, mainly due to chip-offs and crack formation (27 out of 31 relative failures). The mean annual failure rates (AFR) range between 1.5 and 2% over the years, but non-AI patients were affected more frequently by early technical complications in the facial veneering of anteriors, resulting in an AFR ranging between 5.2 and 4%. Quality assessment revealed stable color, form and marginal integrity in all patients up to ten years. The distribution of OHIP values is comparable to the representative sample of healthy patients. CONCLUSION Adhesively bonded single-tooth restorations provided a high clinical quality in the long-run. However, while the survival and success were excellent in AI patients, restorations in non-AI patients were affected by a higher complication rate, likely related to a higher risk profile due to a history of bruxism and tooth wear.

Abstract
Composites resins have become the first choice for direct anterior and posterior restorations. The great popularity is related to their esthetic appearance and reduced need of sound tissue removal as compared with former treatments. Several studies have demonstrated that composite restorations may last long in clinical service. In this review we discuss the factors playing a role on the long-term longevity. Composite restorations have demonstrated a good clinical performance with annual failure rates varying from 1% to 3% in posterior teeth and 1% to 5% in anterior teeth. Factors related to the patients such as caries risk and occlusal stress risk, in addition to socioeconomic factors, may affect the survival significantly. Characteristics of the clinical operators, particularly their decision making when it comes to observing or approaching an existing restoration, are decisive for longevity. Cavity features such as the number of restored walls, composite volume, and presence of endodontic treatment are of major importance and may dictate the service time of the restorative approach. The choice of restorative composite seems to have a minor effect on longevity provided that appropriate technical procedures are used. The main reasons for failure in posterior teeth are secondary caries and fracture (restoration or tooth/restoration), while in anterior teeth esthetic concerns are the main reasons leading to restoration failures. Composite resin restorations can be considered a reliable treatment as long as both the professional and the patient are aware of the factors involved in restoration failures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To demonstrate the fatigue behavior of CAD/CAM resin composite molar crowns using a mouth-motion step-stress fatigue test. Monolithic leucite-reinforced glass-ceramic crowns were used as a reference. METHODS Fully anatomically shaped monolithic resin composite molar crowns (Lava Ultimate, n=24) and leucite reinforced glass-ceramic crowns (IPS Empress CAD, n=24) were fabricated using CAD/CAM systems. Crowns were cemented on aged dentin-like resin composite tooth replicas (Filtek Z100) with resin-based cements (RelyX Ultimate for Lava Ultimate or Multilink Automix for IPS Empress). Three step-stress profiles (aggressive, moderate and mild) were employed for the accelerated sliding-contact mouth-motion fatigue test. Twenty one crowns from each group were randomly distributed among these three profiles (1:2:4). Failure was designated as chip-off or bulk fracture. Optical and electron microscopes were used to examine the occlusal surface and subsurface damages, as well as the material microstructures. RESULTS The resin composite crowns showed only minor occlusal damage during mouth-motion step-stress fatigue loading up to 1700N. Cross-sectional views revealed contact-induced cone cracks in all specimens, and flexural radial cracks in 2 crowns. Both cone and radial cracks were relatively small compared to the crown thickness. Extending these cracks to the threshold for catastrophic failure would require much higher indentation loads or more loading cycles. In contrast, all of the glass-ceramic crowns fractured, starting at loads of approximately 450N. SIGNIFICANCE Monolithic CAD/CAM resin composite crowns endure, with only superficial damage, fatigue loads 3-4 times higher than those causing catastrophic failure in glass-ceramic CAD crowns.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The use of monolithic zirconia crowns in implant prostheses is increasing, especially when the interdental space is insufficient. However, fractures have been reported in clinical practice. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the minimal thickness of a complete zirconia crown used for an implant prosthesis in the posterior dental region. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty complete zirconia crowns were produced using a computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing technique. In each group, 5 crowns of varying thicknesses (0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, and 0.8 mm) were subjected to cycles of vertical and 10-degree oblique compressive loading at 5 Hz and 300 N in a servohydraulic testing machine. Five finite element models comprising 5 different occlusal thicknesses (0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, and 0.8 mm) were simulated at 2 loading angles (0 and 10 degrees) and 3 loading forces (300, 500, and 800 N). Data were statistically analyzed, and fracture patterns were observed with a scanning electron microscope. RESULTS Cyclic loading tests revealed that the fracture resistance of the specimens was positively associated with prosthesis thickness (P<.01). Low von Mises stress values were obtained for prostheses with a minimal thickness of 0.7 mm under varying loading directions and forces. CONCLUSIONS Zirconia prostheses with a minimal thickness of 0.7 mm had a high fracture resistance and the lowest stress values. Therefore, dentists and laboratory technicians should carefully choose the optimum thickness of zirconia prostheses.
