Service patterns varied by level of carious lesion severity with initial carious lesions managed by more preventive services, cavitated carious lesions with more restorative services, gross carious lesions with more radiographic, endodontic and extraction services. However, initial carious lesions tend to be managed with restorative rather than pre...

Roark's formulas for evaluating the biaxial strength of bilayered dental ceramics will result in errors in predicted stresses which depend on the size of the overhang region of the plate in the actual loading configuration. Also, Roark's formulas are limited to predicting stresses on the top and the bottom surfaces of the plate. On the other hand, ...

This in vitro study showed that inlay-retained FRC FPD constructed with direct technique provided high fracture resistance. The framework design that provided support for the veneering composite of the pontic contributed to the highest load-bearing capacity even when loaded to the buccal cusp.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of an onium salt in the polymerization kinetics of a dental adhesive model resin. A monomer mixture, based on Bis-GMA, TEGDMA and HEMA, was used as a model dental adhesive resin, which was polymerized using camphorquinone (CQ) as a photo-initiator in addition to either binary or ternary photo-init...
