Physical properties and biological effects of mineral trioxide aggregate mixed with methylcellulose and calcium chloride

J. appl. oral sci; 25 (6), 2017
Abstract Objectives: Methylcellulose (MC) is a chemical compound derived from cellulose. MTA mixed with MC reduces setting time and increases plasticity. This study assessed the influence of MC as an anti-washout ingredient and CaCl2 as a setting time accelerator on the physical and biological propertie...

In vitro and in vivo evaluations of glass-ionomer cement containing chlorhexidine for Atraumatic Restorative Treatment

J. appl. oral sci; 25 (5), 2017
Abstract Objectives: Addition of chlorhexidine has enhanced the antimicrobial effect of glass ionomer cement (GIC) indicated to Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART); however, the impact of this mixture on the properties of these materials and on the longevity of restorations must be investigated. The ...

Influence of elastic modulus of intraradicular posts on the fracture load of roots restored with full crowns

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the fracture load and displacement of roots restored with posts of different elastic modulus. Material and method: Thirty-six replicas of epoxy resin mixed with glass microfibers were made from an endodontically-treated human premolar root prepared to a length of...

Parámetros mamográficos: compresión, dosis y disconfort

Rev. argent. radiol; 81 (2), 2017
Objetivo: Confirmar la importancia de la compresión en mamografía, y relacionarla con el disconfort manifestado por las pacientes. Materiales y métodos: Se emplearon 2 muestras de 402 y 268 mamografías, obtenidas en dos centros de diagnóstico que poseen el mismo equipo mamográfico pero diferentes t...

Misfit and fracture load of implant-supported monolithic crowns in zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate

J. appl. oral sci; 25 (3), 2017
Abstract Zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS) is a ceramic that promises to have better mechanical properties than other materials with the same indications as well as improved adaptation and fracture strength. Objective In this study, marginal and internal misfit and fracture load with and witho...

Análisis de la distribución de tensiones en tres diseños de incrustaciones de cerómero y cerámica en primeros premolares superiores ante una carga axial de 200 y 400 N, mediante el MEF

Rev. cient. odontol; 4 (2), 2016
El objetivo de este estudio fue comparar el estrés comprensivo en primeras premolares superiores, restauradas con tres diseños de incrustaciones de cerómero y cerámica por medio del análisis de elementos finitos. El grupo de estudio estuvo conformado por doce simulaciones en MEF, el diseño de una p...

Effect of addition of nano-hydroxyapatite on physico-chemical and antibiofilm properties of calcium silicate cements

J. appl. oral sci; 24 (3), 2016
ABSTRACT Objective Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) is a calcium silicate cement composed of Portland cement (PC) and bismuth oxide. Hydroxyapatite has been incorporated to enhance mechanical and biological properties of dental materials. This study evaluated physicochemical and mechanical properties a...

Effect of cantilever length and alloy framework on the stress distribution in peri-implant area of cantilevered implant-supported fixed partial dentures

J. appl. oral sci; 24 (2), 2016
ABSTRACT Because many mechanical variables are present in the oral cavity, the proper load transfer between the prosthesis and the bone is important for treatment planning and for the longevity of the implant-supported fixed partial denture. Objectives To verify the stress generated on the peri-implant...

Morse taper internal connection implants: would abutment reseating influence retention?

Braz. j. oral sci; 14 (3), 2015
Abstract Aim: To investigate whether the removal and reseating of the abutment influences the retention of Morse taper implant system. Methods: Two Morse taper implant systems were selected: Bicon Dental ImplantTM system (Bicon, LLC, Boston, MA, USA) and Kopp Implant(r) system (Kopp(r), Curitiba, PR, Bra...

Influence of different water types on the physical and mechanical properties of gypsum

Braz. j. oral sci; 14 (3), 2015
Abstract Aim: To evaluate if gypsum mixed with different water types, with their different compositions influence the dimensional change, surface roughness and compressive strength of type IV and V gypsum specimens. Methods: Sixty specimens were fabricated from metal matrices and divided into six groups ...
