Abstract
BACKGROUND In-vitro data from a clinically well-known lithium disilicate ceramic reference was used to assess the expected performance of resin-based materials in implant dentistry. The purpose of the study was to compare the bond strength and marginal adaptation of nano-ceramic hybrid composite crowns cemented to stock cement-retained abutments to lithium disilicate crowns. METHODS Twenty abutment analogs were embedded into auto-polymerizing acrylic resin blocks. The blocks were divided into 2 groups according to the restorative crown material. The 2 groups were divided as follows: Resin nano-ceramic group and lithium disilicate group. Abutment analogs in both groups were scanned using a laboratory scanner, and the restorations were designed, manufactured, and cemented with resin cement over the corresponding group. All samples were tested for marginal adaptation and bond strength after storage for 24 hours at 37 °C in 100% humidity. Data were collected, tabulated, and statistically analysed using the appropriate tests. Normality was checked using Shapiro Wilk test and Q-Q plots. Data were normally distributed. Variables were presented using mean, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) and standard deviation in addition to median and Inter Quartile Range (IQR). Differences between groups regarding debonding forces was assessed using independent t test. Two Way ANOVA was performed to assess the effect of material and bonding on marginal gap. All tests were two tailed and p value was set at < 0.05. RESULTS Marginal gap and debonding force values were significantly different according to the type of material used (P < .05). Resin nano-ceramic crowns presented lower marginal gap values before (20.80 ± 8.87 μm) and after (52.11 ± 22.92 μm) bonding than lithium disilicate crowns. The debonding force value for resin nano-ceramic crowns (284.30 ± 26.44 N) was significantly higher than that for lithium disilicate crowns (253.30 ± 33.26 N). Adhesive failure mode was detected in all the specimens in both groups. CONCLUSIONS The type of material used for implant-supported cement-retained crowns had a statistically significant effect on marginal adaptation and bond strength. Resin nano-ceramic implant-supported cement-retained crowns had better marginal adaptation and higher bond strength than those manufactured using lithium disilicate.

Effect of Abutment Geometry and Luting Agents on the Vertical Marginal Discrepancy of Cast Copings on Implant Abutments: An In Vitro Study. Int J Dent 2021; 2021:9950972. [PMID: 34239569 PMCID: PMC8238619 DOI: 10.1155/2021/9950972] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2021] [Accepted: 06/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim Vertical marginal discrepancy (VMD) influences the success of implant-supported restorations. However, there is little literature that has investigated the influence of geometry and cementing agent on changes in VMD of metal copings on implant abutments. The objective was to evaluate the effect of the geometry of the abutment and cementing agents on VMD. Methods Cast copings were cemented on implant abutments customized cylindrical (4, 5.5, and 7 mm) and on hexagonal implant abutments (4 mm) cemented or uncemented molded copings were placed (n = 4, totally 64 samples) with different luting agents. The VMD of the copings were measured in the coping-abutment interface at three reference points using a stereomicroscope. The independent Student's t test was used for comparison between the two different abutment walls. The post hoc statistical analysis was performed by the Tukey test. Results There was a significant VMD increase between noncemented and cemented cast copings using different luting agents. Abutment geometry and luting agents significantly influenced the VMD (p ≤ 0.05). Cylindrical abutment at 7 mm in height cemented with different luting agent tested showed significantly higher VMD values than cylindrical abutments of 4 mm (p=0.019). Hexagonal abutments with a 4 mm height showed significantly higher VMD values than cylindrical 4 mm abutments using zinc oxide noneugenol and glass ionomer cements (p=0.032). Conclusions Abutment geometry and luting agents influence the VMD of cast copings cemented on implant abutment. The higher the cylindrical abutment, the greater the VMD, and hexagonal wall abutments promote greater marginal gap.

J Prosthet Dent 2021; 125:683.e1-683.e8. [PMID: 33583618 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2020.12.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2020] [Revised: 11/29/2020] [Accepted: 12/01/2020] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Although luting space is related to the marginal fit of indirect restorations, information on its influence on the marginal fit and tensile strength of zirconia abutments bonded to titanium bases is lacking. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the influence of luting space on the marginal discrepancy and tensile strength of zirconia abutments bonded to a titanium base after dynamic loading. MATERIAL AND METHODS Ninety implant replicas were embedded in resin blocks to attach 4-mm-high titanium luting bases. Zirconia abutments (Ceramill Zolid FX) were fabricated with different internal luting spaces: 25 μm (G25), 50 μm (G50), or 75 μm (G75). The zirconia abutments were cemented on the titanium bases by using a resin cement (Panavia F 2.0) under a constant load of 20 N. The marginal discrepancy and internal fit of 10 random specimens from each group were evaluated with a stereoscopic microscope at ×50 magnification. The remaining specimens were submitted to the tensile strength test in which half were evaluated after dynamic loading (1.2 million cycles of 200 N at 3.8 Hz) in a mechanical fatigue machine. The tensile strength test was performed using a pullout apparatus coupled to a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. The mode of failure was determined by observation at ×50 magnification under a stereomicroscope and classified into adhesive or mixed. The groups were compared by using 2-way ANOVA and the Tukey HSD test (α=.05). RESULTS Increase in the luting space did not influence the marginal discrepancy (P>.05). All zirconia abutments exhibited lower pullout strength after fatigue simulation (P<.05). G75 demonstrated lower tensile strength than G25 and G50 before and after loading (P<.05). Most failures were adhesive at the zirconia-cement interface. CONCLUSIONS The increase of the luting space to 75 μm did not influence marginal discrepancy; however, it reduced the tensile strength of a zirconia abutment bonded to a titanium base.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Different inlay casting waxes do not produce copings with satisfactory marginal accuracy when used on different die materials. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the marginal accuracy of 4 inlay casting waxes on stone dies and titanium and zirconia abutments and to correlate the findings with the degree of wetting between the die specimens and the inlay casting waxes. MATERIAL AND METHODS The inlay casting waxes tested were Starwax (Dentaurum), Unterziehwachs (Bredent), SU Esthetic wax (Schuler), and Sculpturing wax (Renfert). The marginal opening of the waxes was measured with a stereomicroscope on high-strength stone dies and on titanium and zirconia abutments. Photographic images were obtained, and the mean marginal opening for each specimen was calculated. A total of 1440 measurements were made. Wetting between die materials and waxes was determined after fabricating stone, titanium, and zirconia rectangular specimens. A calibrated pipette was used to place a drop of molten wax onto each specimen. The contact angle was calculated with software after an image of each specimen had been made with a digital camera. Collected data were subjected to a 2-way analysis of variance (α=.05). Any association between marginal accuracy and wetting of different materials was found by using the Pearson correlation. RESULTS The wax factor had a statistically significant effect both on the marginal discrepancy (F=158.31, P<.001) and contact angle values (F=68.09, P<.001). A statistically significant effect of the die material factor both on the marginal adaptation (F=503.47, P<.001) and contact angle values (F=585.02, P<.001) was detected. A significant correlation between the marginal accuracy and the contact angle values (Pearson=0.881, P=.01) was also found. CONCLUSIONS Stone dies provided wax copings with the best marginal integrity, followed by titanium and zirconia abutments. Unterziehwachs (Bredent), wax produced the best marginal adaptation on different die materials. A significant correlation was found between the marginal accuracy and the contact angle values. As the contact angle value became smaller, the marginal accuracy improved. All combinations of waxes and stone and titanium dies presented a high wettability.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of fit of three types of implant-supported frameworks cast in Ni-Cr alloy: specifically, a framework cast as one piece compared to frameworks cast separately in sections to the transverse or the diagonal axis, and later laser welded. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three sets of similar implant-supported frameworks were constructed. The first group of six 3-unit implant-supported frameworks were cast as one piece, the second group of six were sectioned in the transverse axis of the pontic region prior to casting, and the last group of six were sectioned in the diagonal axis of the pontic region prior to casting. The sectioned frameworks were positioned in the matrix (10 N.cm torque) and laser welded. To evaluate passive fit, readings were made with an optical microscope with both screws tightened and with only one-screw tightened. Data were submitted to ANOVA and Tukey-Kramer's test (p < 0.05). RESULTS When both screws were tightened, no differences were found between the three groups (p > 0.05). In the single-screw-tightened test, with readings made opposite to the tightened side, the group cast as one piece (57.02 +/- 33.48 mum) was significantly different (p < 0.05) from the group sectioned diagonally (18.92 +/- 4.75 microm) but no different (p > 0.05) from the group transversally sectioned (31.42 +/- 20.68 microm). On the tightened side, no significant differences were found between the groups (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Results of this study showed that casting diagonally sectioned frameworks lowers misfit levels of prosthetic implant-supported frameworks and also improves the levels of passivity to the same frameworks when compared to structures cast as one piece.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies focusing on the marginal accuracy of all-ceramic crowns on implant abutments are in short supply. PURPOSE This study evaluated the marginal accuracy of all-ceramic crowns on different implant abutments. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-six standardized maxillary central incisor crowns (48 alumina and 48 zirconia) were fabricated for each of the six test groups (n = 16) (Ti1, titanium abutments-alumina crowns; Ti2, titanium abutments-zirconia crowns; Al1, alumina abutments-alumina crowns; Al2, alumina abutments-zirconia crowns; Zr1, zirconia abutments-alumina crowns; Zr2, zirconia abutments-zirconia crowns). The crowns were adhesively luted using a resin luting agent. The marginal gaps were examined on epoxy replicas before and after luting as well as after masticatory simulation at 200x magnification. RESULTS The geometrical mean (95% confidence limits) marginal gap values before cementation, after cementation, and after masticatory simulation were group Ti1: 39(37-42), 57(53-62), and 49(46-53); group Ti2: 43(40-47), 71(67-76), and 64(59-69); group Al1: 57(54-61), 87(85-90), and 67(65-69); group Al2: 66(63-69), 96(90-101), and 75(72-78); group Zr1: 54(51-57), 79(76-82), and 65(63-67); and group Zr2: 64(60-68), 85(80-91), and 75(70-81). The comparison between non-cemented and cemented stages in each group demonstrated a significant increase in the marginal gap values after cementation in all groups (p < .001), while the comparison between cemented and aged stages in each group showed a significant decrease in the marginal gap values in groups Al1, Al2, and Zr1 (p < .0001). This reduction was not significant for groups Ti1, Ti2, and Zr2 (p > .05). CONCLUSION The marginal accuracy of all tested restorations meets the requirements for clinical acceptance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this prospective clinical study was to evaluate peri-implant soft-tissue conditions and esthetic fulfillment during a 3-year follow-up period following prosthetic rehabilitation. MATERIAL AND METHODS As part of a prospective multi-center study, 152 ITI dental implants were placed in 80 patients in the maxillary anterior region. Fifty-nine crowns (38.82%) were cement retained, while 93 (61.18%) crowns were screw retained. At loading and 3, 6, 12 and 36 months post-loading, modified plaque index (MPI), sulcus bleeding index (SBI), keratinized mucosa (KM), gingival level (GL), and esthetic fulfillment were recorded. RESULTS All patients completed the study and no complications were reported. While statistically not significant at all time points, cement-retained crowns seemed to present a worsening trend in MPI and SBI scores. Interestingly, screw-retained crowns seemed to present an opposite picture, their MPI and SBI scores improved over time. While plaque accumulation, prophylaxis and depth of crown margin significantly affected levels of sulcus bleeding, prophylaxis alone played a key role in reducing plaque accumulation. No soft tissue recession was observed in either cement- or screw-retained crowns up to 3 years post-loading. Esthetic fulfillment survey revealed that patients did not have a preference for crown types; however, dentists favored cement-retained over screw-retained crowns. CONCLUSIONS Peri-implant soft tissues responded more favorably to screw-retained crowns when compared with cement-retained crowns. However, no soft-tissue recession was observed in either type of crowns. Cement-retained crowns were preferred by dentists, while patients were equally satisfied with either type of crowns they received.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Gap measurements along margins are frequently used to assess the quality of single crowns. However, the number of gap measurements required for clinically relevant results in laboratory studies is not known. PURPOSE This study estimated the minimum number of gap measurements on margins of single crowns to produce relevant results for gap analysis. METHODS AND MATERIAL Ten all-ceramic crowns were fabricated on a master steel die. Gaps along crown margins were investigated in a scanning electron microscope on the master steel die without cementation and on replica dies after conventional cementation. Measurements were made in 100 microm steps according to 3 gap definitions. The initial number of measurements per crown (n = 230) was reduced to smaller subsets using both systematic and random approaches to determine the impact on the quality of results. RESULTS On the data of gap definition 1, reduction from 230 to about 50 measurements caused less than +/-5 microm variability for arithmetic means. Analysis of standard errors showed slowly increasing values smaller than 3 microm, both indicating no relevant impact on the quality of results. Smaller data sizes yielded accelerated increase of standard errors and divergent variabilities of mean. The minimum of 50 measurements did not depend on gap definition or on cementation condition. CONCLUSION Fifty measurements are required for clinically relevant information about gap size regardless of whether the measurement sites are selected in a systematic or random manner, which is far more than what current in vitro studies use.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this investigation was to determine the mean marginal discrepancy of metal-ceramic crowns fabricated with gold cylinders and cemented on implant abutments. These discrepancies were then compared with those measured previously for implant-supported ceramic crowns. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifteen Nobel BioCare CeraOne abutments were connected to implant fixtures embedded in acrylic resin blocks. Marginal discrepancies were determined for gold cylinders, gold cylinders plus ceramic alloy (metal frameworks), completed metal-ceramic crowns, and cemented metal-ceramic crowns using a stereomicroscope equipped with a video camera linked to a computer. A Hotelling's T2 test (p < or = .05) was used to evaluate potential differences in mean marginal discrepancies among groups. RESULTS The mean marginal discrepancies were: 1) gold cylinders, 7.56 +/- 2.73 microns; 2) metal frameworks, 6.21 +/- 1.34 microns; 3) metal-ceramic crowns, 11.06 +/- 3.21 microns; and 4) zinc-phosphate cemented crowns, 31.47 +/- 6.65 microns. No significant difference between gold cylinders and metal frameworks was found. Mean marginal discrepancies for metal-ceramic crowns were significantly greater than discrepancies for cast gold cylinders. Cemented-crown mean marginal discrepancy was significantly greater than all other means. CONCLUSIONS Cemented metal-ceramic crowns fabricated using proprietary gold cylinders exhibited well-fitting margins (31.47 microns).
