Development of a non-flasking technique utilizing heat-cure acrylic crown and bridge resin with and without prefabricated plastic veneer facings
(Boston University, 1969)A screening test for hardness and one for porosity were carried out in order to find the best and most practical technique for curing heat-cure acrylic crown and bridge resin. The test-curing conditions were: 20% NaCl ... -
Low temperature degradation of yttria stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystalline ceramics (Y-TZP)
(Boston University, 2015)Objectives To evaluate effect of water and surface treatments on strength and microstructure of Tosoh Y-TZPs Materials and methods Three types of Tosoh Y-TZP powders (Tosoh Corporation, Japan) were used: TZ-3YSB-E(Standard), ... -
An investigation into the comparative accuracy of five types of elastic impression materials commonly used in restorative dentistry
(Boston University, 1983)Numerous types of impression materials are currently available for use by the dental practitioner for the fabrication of cast restorations. No two materials do, however, resemble each other in all aspects, yet all seem to ... -
Clinical and laboratory evaluation of a ceramic bracket system in orthodontics
(Boston University, 1990)The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance in vivo and the in vitro retention of the Allure (GAC) orthodontic ceramic bracket system. Forty human extracted premolars were bracketed with either (A) ceramic ... -
Effect of porosity and curing pressure on flexural strength of resin infused feldspathic porcelains
(Boston University, 2014)Objectives: The objectives of this study were to: Investigate the effect of sintering temperature on the microstructure and density of two different ceramics. Investigate the effect of curing pressure on flexural strength ... -
Preliminary evaluation of tooth coloration potential and wear of full-contour alumina in vitro
(Boston University, 2013)Objective: The objective of this study was: a. to evaluate the effect of color-infusion of alumina at pre-sintered porous stage with different metal salt solutions, at different concentrations; resulting in a variety of ... -
Investigation of physical properties of contemporary chairside CADCAM restorative materials
(Boston University, 2015)The objectives of this study are to investigate the mechanical properties, color stability and wear resistance of chairside CAD/CAM materials. Materials and Methods Mechanical properties: The materials included in this ... -
Masking properties of ceramics for veneer restorations
(Boston University, 2013)Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the translucency of six porcelain veneering materials by assessing their masking properties ([Delta]E), contrast ratios (CR) and also their potentials to mask dark tooth ... -
Mechanical behavior of all-ceramic composite beams
(Boston University, 2011)Over the last 10 years, the increasing demand for metal-free restorative alternatives has resulted in the proliferation of all-ceramic systems. While these materials can predictably achieve good esthetic results in the ...
