Clinical outcomes of dental restorations depend primarily on the choice of materials used,
and nowadays, dental CAD-CAM (Computer-Aided Design Computer-Aided Manufacturing) …

Currently, various analytical techniques, including scanning electron microscopy, X-Ray
diffraction, microcomputed tomography, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, are …

The aim of this study was to assess the microhardness and surface roughness of bulk-fill
resin composites treated with and without the application of an oxygen-inhibited layer (OIL) …

This study aimed to compare two different bulk-filling techniques, evaluating the internal and
external adaptation of class II resin-composite restorations, by analysing the gap formation …

Occlusal rest provides support for removable partial dentures (RPD). Rest seats are ideally
prepared in enamel, but the abutment teeth might be restored or need restorations. This …

Changes in the organic matrix of composite resins have been proposed to improve their
surface properties. However, polishing systems may perform differently in different materials …

This article proposes a technique to simplify the cementation of indirect restorations by
exploiting the advantageous properties of bulk-fill composites (BFCs). The proposed …

This study aims to evaluate the effects of different finishing and polishing (F/P) systems on
gloss and surface morphology of a new nanocomposite. Thirty discs of Filtek Universal …

Objectives To assess the color stability and surface roughness of resin-free and resin-based
nanohybrid composites after immersion in various staining media. Methods A resin-free …

Background: Surface smoothness considered to be a significant part of the appearance and
success of the restorative materials. The aim of this study was to assess the influence of four …
