Abstract

Studies of extracted teeth showed that, when the width of the interval is increased by 0.1 mm, the depth of the interval enlarged an average of 0.067 mm. It would seem that, in terms of cement caries, the attachment cement loosens more quickly under the effect of carious processes. The loss of substance is less when the cement seams are below the gingival cuff. Laboratory tests of cement seams showed the loss of substance to be slight with zinc-oxide-phosphate cements. A distinct shrinkage was observed with carboxylate cements. The greatest amount of loss was reported with the EBA cement.

Postcementation marginal fit of a new ceramic foil crown system.

The in vitro marginal fit of a new foil crown was investigated. Ten standardized polycarbonate master dies filled with 30 wt% carbon having a 90-degree butt joint margin were used to evaluate the marginal fit of Sunrise porcelain foil crowns. The crown specimens were made on stone dies and treated with three coats of die spacer. After fabrication, they were adjusted, cemented with zinc phosphate cement to their respective master dies with 5 kg loading for 10 minutes and stored in water. A Gaertner traveling microscope was used to measure the marginal fit of each specimen. Readings were recorded at five locations randomly marked but equally dividing the margin on each crown, and the overall mean for the crowns was then calculated. The results from the 50 areas revealed a mean marginal discrepancy of 25.3 microns, and this compared favorably with the discrepancies reported for other ceramic crown systems.

The fit of fixed partial dentures joined by infrared soldering.

This study determined the accuracy of fit of three-unit fixed partial dentures joined by an infrared soldering technique compared with one-piece fixed partial denture castings and individually cast crowns. Wax patterns of prepared Ivorine teeth, maxillary left central incisor and maxillary left canine, were injection molded; a plastic rod was used as a pontic. One group of patterns was cast as one-piece dentures; the other group was sectioned in the connector area, cast individually and then joined by infrared soldering. Castings were seated on their respective dies, embedded in epoxy resin, and sectioned. Gap distances between the casting and the die were measured at specified marginal sites with a profile projector. Results showed that the fit of infrared-soldered fixed partial dentures was significantly better than that of one-piece castings and was comparable with the fit of single crowns. The gap openings measured in all castings were within the range of clinical acceptability.

Making a coping for an esthetic veneer crown.

Esthetic veneer crowns should be waxed to full contour before the veneer surface is cut back. This procedure ensures that patterns and metal copings will have the proper contours. A technique is described for making a coping that has an ideal thickness of 0.3 to 0.5 mm, that is stable, and that is unlikely to fracture.
