Optimum structural design of composites is a research subject that has drawn the attention
of many researchers for more than 40 years with a growing interest. In this study, a review of …

Purpose Fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) have shown
good performance in clinical applications due to their good mechanical properties and …

Objectives The aim of this study was to test the fracture load of ceramic and composite three-
unit full-contour fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) fabricated with additive and subtractive …

Fiber reinforced composite (FRC) materials have been successfully used in a variety of
commercial applications. These materials have also been widely used in dentistry. The use …

Background The purposes of this simulation study were to evaluate the stresses in the roots
of endodontically treated molars with extensive coronal tissue loss which were restored by …

OBJECTIVE: In restored teeth, stresses at the tooth–restoration interface during masticatory
processes may fracture the teeth or the restoration and cracks may grow and propagate. The …

ABSTRACT Statement of Problem: The flexure of the fiber-reinforced composites (FRC)
which can be generally used instead of fixed metal-framework prostheses have been more …

Layered all‐ceramic systems have been increasingly adopted in major dental prostheses.
However, ceramics are inherently brittle, and they often subject to premature failure under …

Statement of problem The cantilevered resin-bonded fixed dental prosthesis (RBFDP) is a
feasible and minimally invasive treatment option to restore a single missing tooth, especially …

Purpose: To evaluate the load-bearing capacities of fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) fixed
dental prostheses (FDP) with pontics of various materials and thicknesses. Materials and …
