J Dent 2024; 147:105095. [PMID: 38788917 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2024.105095] [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: 04/23/2024] [Revised: 05/12/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To report the clinical results obtained with fixed short-span (single crowns [SCs] and fixed partial prostheses [FPPs]) implant-supported hybrid composite restorations fabricated through tilting stereolithography (TSLA). METHODS This retrospective clinical study included 85 patients who had been restored with 95 fixed short-span implant-supported hybrid composite (Irix Max®, DWS Systems) restorations (70 SCs and 25 FPPs up to three units) fabricated with TSLA. The full-digital model-free workflow was based on intraoral implant scanning, computer-assisted design (CAD) and 3D printing using TSLA (Dfab®, DWS Systems). The primary outcomes were the marginal adaptation, the quality of the occlusal and interproximal contact points, and the chromatic integration of the restorations, assessed independently by two experienced operators (a prosthodontist and a periodontist). A score from 1 to 5 (with 5 as the highest value, 4 for satisfactory quality, 3 for acceptable quality, and 2 and 1 as the lowest values, expressing unsatisfactory quality) was assigned by each operator to each restoration at delivery. The secondary outcomes were the survival and success of the restorations at the 1-year follow-up. The restoration was defined as successful in the absence of any complications throughout the follow-up period. A statistical analysis was conducted. RESULTS For the quality of the marginal closure and occlusal and interproximal contact points, the 3D-printed hybrid composite restorations scored highly; the aesthetic integration was satisfactory. One year after placement, all restorations survived, with a low incidence (4.2 % overall, 5.7 % SCs) of complications (two abutment screw loosenings, two decementation of the restorations, and one upper portion of the hybrid abutment decemented from the titanium base), for a success rate of 95.8 %. CONCLUSIONS Within the limits of this study (retrospective design, follow-up limited to 1 year from the delivery, and only cemented restorations included) fixed short-span implant-supported hybrid composite crowns and bridges fabricated through TSLA were clinically precise, presenting a low incidence of complications at 1 year. STATEMENT OF CLINICAL RELEVANCE The use of TSLA printing technology can open new perspectives for the treatment of small edentulous gaps with definitive implant-supported prosthetic restorations.

J Dent 2024; 146:105060. [PMID: 38735471 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2024.105060] [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: 12/12/2023] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/14/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) have become an integral part of comprehensive orthodontic treatments. This study evaluated the transfer accuracy of three-dimensional (3D) printed and computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) milled surgical guides for orthodontic TADs using micro-computed tomography (CT) imaging in a preclinical trial. METHODS Overall, 30 surgical guides were used to place TADs into typodonts; 3D printing and CAD/CAM milling were used to produce the guides. The virtual target positions of the TADs were compared to the real positions in terms of spatial and angular deviations using digital superimposition. Micro-CT imaging was used to detect the positions. To evaluate reliability, two investigators collected the measurements twice. Intra-rater and inter-rater correlations were tested. RESULTS In total, 60 palatal TADs were evaluated. The mean coronal deviations in the print group ranged from 0.15 ± 0.20 mm to 0.71 ± 0.22 mm, whereas in the mill group, they ranged from 0.09 ± 0.15 mm to 0.83 ± 0.23 mm. At the apical tip, the overall deviations in the print group ranged from 0.14 ± 0.56 mm to 1.27 ± 0.66 mm, whereas in the mill group, they ranged from 0.15 ± 0.57 mm to 1.09 ± 0.44 mm. The mean intra-class and inter-class correlation coefficients ranged from 0.904 to 0.987. No statistically significant differences were found between the groups. CONCLUSIONS CAD/CAM milled guides yielded spatial and angular accuracies comparable to those of 3D printed guides with notable deviations in the vertical positioning of TADs. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Digital planning of orthodontic temporary implants combines clinical predictability and the safety of surrounding tissue. Therefore, the transfer accuracy of the guides is crucial. This preclinical study was the first to evaluate CAD/CAM milling for orthodontic guides and found its accuracy comparable to that of the current "gold standard".

Tooth morphology, internal fit, occlusion and proximal contacts of dental crowns designed by deep learning-based dental software: A comparative study. J Dent 2024; 141:104830. [PMID: 38163455 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2023.104830] [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: 10/20/2023] [Revised: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study compared the tooth morphology, internal fit, occlusion, and proximal contacts of dental crowns automatically generated via two deep learning (DL)-based dental software systems with those manually designed by an experienced dental technician using conventional software. METHODS Thirty partial arch scans of prepared posterior teeth were used. The crowns were designed using two DL-based methods (AA and AD) and a technician-based method (NC). The crown design outcomes were three-dimensionally compared, focusing on tooth morphology, internal fit, occlusion, and proximal contacts, by calculating the geometric relationship. Statistical analysis utilized the independent t-test, Mann-Whitney test, one-way ANOVA, and Kruskal-Wallis test with post hoc pairwise comparisons (α = 0.05). RESULTS The AA and AD groups, with the NC group as a reference, exhibited no significant tooth morphology discrepancies across entire external or occlusal surfaces. The AD group exhibited higher root mean square and positive average values on the axial surface (P < .05). The AD and NC groups exhibited a better internal fit than the AA group (P < .001). The cusp angles were similar across all groups (P = .065). The NC group yielded more occlusal contact points than the AD group (P = .006). Occlusal and proximal contact intensities varied among the groups (both P < .001). CONCLUSIONS Crowns designed by using both DL-based software programs exhibited similar morphologies on the occlusal and axial surfaces; however, they differed in internal fit, occlusion, and proximal contacts. Their overall performance was clinically comparable to that of the technician-based method in terms of the internal fit and number of occlusal contact points. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE DL-based dental software for crown design can streamline the digital workflow in restorative dentistry, ensuring clinically-acceptable outcomes on tooth morphology, internal fit, occlusion, and proximal contacts. It can minimize the necessity of additional design optimization by dental technician.

Trueness, precision, time-efficiency and cost analysis of chairside additive and subtractive versus lab-based workflows for manufacturing single crowns: An in vitro study. J Dent 2024; 141:104792. [PMID: 38013004 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2023.104792] [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: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 11/29/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the trueness, precision, time efficiency, and cost of three different workflows for manufacturing single crowns (SCs). METHODS A plaster model with a prepared tooth (#15) was scanned with an industrial scanner, and an SC was designed in computer-assisted-design (CAD) software. Ten SCs were printed with a hybrid composite (additive chairside) and a stereolithographic (SLA) printer (Dfab®), 10 SCs were milled in lithium disilicate (subtractive chairside) using a chairside milling unit (inLab MC XL®), and 10 SCs were milled in zirconia (lab-based) using a five-axis laboratory machine (DWX-52D®). All SCs were scanned with the same scanner after polymerization/sinterization. Each scan was superimposed to the marginal area of the original CAD file to evaluate trueness: absolute average (ABS AVG), root mean square (RMS), and (90˚-10˚)/2 percentile were calculated for each group. Marginal adaptation and quality of the occlusal and interproximal contact points were also investigated by two prosthodontists on 3D printed and plaster models. Finally, the three workflows' time efficiency and costs were evaluated. RESULTS Additive chairside and subtractive lab-based SCs had significantly better marginal trueness than subtractive chairside SCs in all three parameters (ABS AVG, p < 0.01; RMS, p < 0.01; [90˚-10˚]/2, p < 0.01). However, the two prosthodontists found no significant differences between the three manufacturing procedures in the quality of the marginal closure (p = 0.186), interproximal (p = 0.319), and occlusal contacts (p = 0.218). Both time efficiency and cost show a trend favoring the chairside additive workflow. CONCLUSIONS Chairside additive technology seems to represent a valid alternative for manufacturing definitive SCs, given the high marginal trueness, precision, workflow efficiency and low costs. STATEMENT OF CLINICAL RELEVANCE Additive chairside manufacturing of definitive hybrid composite SCs is now possible and shows high accuracy, time efficiency, and competitive cost.

Influence of the postpolymerization type and time on the flexural strength and dimensional stability of 3D printed interim resins. J Prosthet Dent 2023; 130:796.e1-796.e8. [PMID: 37659913 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2023.07.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Revised: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/27/2023] [Indexed: 09/04/2023]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The mechanical strength of 3-dimensionally (3D) printed interim resins is unclear but influenced by printing parameters. Evidence regarding standardization of the postpolymerization type and time for 3D printed interim resins is sparse. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the influence of postpolymerization type and time on flexural strength and dimensional stability of 3D printed resins for interim restorations. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 288 bars were 3D printed (Form 2; Formlabs, stereolithography-SLA, 50 µm, 30 degrees), (25×2×2 mm; International Organization for Standardization-ISO 4049:2019) abraded and randomly divided into 9 groups (n=30) according to postpolymerization (Ultraviolet device-UV; Microwave with water-MWA; Microwave without water-MW) and time (15, 20, and 30 minutes for UV; and 5, 8, and 10 minutes for MW and MWA). Each bar was then measured with digital calipers at 11 points for length, thickness, and width before and after postpolymerization to analyze dimensional stability. The flexural strength was then measured (σ; 980.6 N, 1 mm/minute) and the fractured surfaces were analyzed with scanning electron microscopy. The σ (MPa) data were evaluated by using a 2-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the Tukey honestly significant difference (HSD) pairwise comparisons test (α=.05). Dimensional stability data (mm) were analyzed by using the Kruskal-Wallis test and Dwass-Steel-Critchlow-Fligner multiple comparisons. The Weibull analysis was performed with σ data. RESULTS The 2-way ANOVA revealed that all factors and their interaction were significant for σ (P<.001). The UV groups presented the highest σ values, being statistically higher than all MW and MWA groups. The Weibull analysis revealed that postpolymerization UV groups found the highest values regarding the characteristic strength, although the MW 8-minute group (13.71) found the highest value for the Weibull modulus. Furthermore, the Kruskal-Wallis test revealed that only the postpolymerization factor was significant for dimensional stability (P<.001). The postpolymerization microwave groups found greater expansion variations at all times, with the MW 8-minute group (0.78 ±0.54) presenting the greatest variation in dimensional stability. CONCLUSIONS UV was determined to be the most suitable type of postpolymerization for interim printed resin among the postpolymerization methods, regardless of the application time. The postpolymerization MW groups found greater variations in dimensional stability.

Abstract
As computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technologies have matured, three-dimensional (3D) printing materials suitable for dentistry have attracted considerable research interest, owing to their high efficiency and low cost for clinical treatment. Three-dimensional printing technology, also known as additive manufacturing, has developed rapidly over the last forty years, with gradual application in various fields from industry to dental sciences. Four-dimensional (4D) printing, defined as the fabrication of complex spontaneous structures that change over time in response to external stimuli in expected ways, includes the increasingly popular bioprinting. Existing 3D printing materials have varied characteristics and scopes of application; therefore, categorization is required. This review aims to classify, summarize, and discuss dental materials for 3D printing and 4D printing from a clinical perspective. Based on these, this review describes four major materials, i.e., polymers, metals, ceramics, and biomaterials. The manufacturing process of 3D printing and 4D printing materials, their characteristics, applicable printing technologies, and clinical application scope are described in detail. Furthermore, the development of composite materials for 3D printing is the main focus of future research, as combining multiple materials can improve the materials' properties. Updates in material sciences play important roles in dentistry; hence, the emergence of newer materials are expected to promote further innovations in dentistry.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the in-vitro performance and wear behavior of additively or subtractively fabricated resin-based composite molar crowns for temporary and permanent application. MATERIALS AND METHODS Identical molar crowns (n = 8 per group) were manufactured from materials for temporary or permanent application (3x temporary additive fabrication, 3x additive permanent fabrication, 1x temporary subtractive fabrication, 1x permanent subtractive fabrication). All crowns were adhesively bonded (Calibra Universal, Dentsply Sirona, USA) on standardized resin-based composite molars (FDI 46, P Pro temporary Crown & Bridge). Thermal cycling and mechanical loading (2 × 3000 × 5°C/55 °C, 2min, H20 dist., 1.2 × 106 force 50N) were performed and fracture force was determined (v = 1 mm/min, Z010, Zwick, Germany). Mean wear, maximum wear, and roughness were investigated on polished (P1200) specimens (n = 8 per group, d = 8 mm) in a pin-on-block test (50N; 120000 cycles; 1.6Hz; H2O). Statistics were performed by using one-way ANOVA, Bonferroni post-hoc-tests, and Pearson-correlation (α = 0.05). RESULTS All crowns survived TCML without failures. Fracture forces ranged from 1362.4 ± 182.4N to 2354.1 ± 373.3N for the additive temporary crowns, from 1680.4.4 ± 525.1N to 2601.6 ± 403.7N for the additive permanent crowns, and reached values of 2988.5 ± 604.7N for subtractive temporary crowns and 3092.0 ± 307.6 N for subtractive permanent crowns. Significant (p < 0.001) differences were identified between the various additively manufactured systems, but not for the subtractively fabricated systems (p = 0.673). Mean wear of the additive temporary crowns ranged between 114.5 ± 25.8 μm and 163.8 ± 21.4 μm without significant differences (p = 0.061). Mean wear of the additive permanent crowns ranged between 120.0 ± 27.5 μm and 171.3 ± 31.8 μm with significant differences (p = 0.004). No statistically significant differences were identified between temporary and permanent subtractively manufactured specimens, with mean wear ranging between 140.5 ± 51.1 μm and 176.6 ± 26.8 μm (p = 0.673). Maximum wear of additive temporary specimens ranged between 221.4.5 ± 53.3 μm and 322.1 ± 50.6 μm; significant differences were identified between the groups (p = 0.016). Maximum wear of additive permanent specimens ranged between 246.3 ± 47.3 μm and 337.4 ± 61.4 μm, and significant differences were identified between the groups (p = 0.006). Mean wear of the subtractive group (permanent and temporary) showed no differences in maximum wear from 277.9 ± 79.7.1 μm to 316.4 ± 58.1 μm (p = 0.288). Ra roughness ranged from 0.7 ± 0.2 μm to 3.6 ± 1.3 μm with significant differences (p < 0.001) and Rz reference between 65.9 ± 26.2 μm and 16.8 ± 6.3 μm. CONCLUSION Temporary and permanent molar crowns provided at least acceptable in-vitro performance and fracture force for clinical mid-term application. Laboratory wear stability of the resin-based materials appeared sufficient, but should be verified under clinical conditions.
