Shear bond strength of ceramic orthodontic brackets to bulk-fill, packable, and flowable composite restorations under different thermal aging protocol of the substrate: an in vitro study

Long term success of orthodontic treatment depends on the bond strength of orthodontic brackets with tooth and/or restorative materials. This in vitro investigation aimed to assess and compare the shear bond strength (SBS) of ceramic orthodontic brackets bonded to bulk-fill, pack...

Influence of total occlusal convergence and auxiliary retentive features on regional marginal discrepancy in milled and 3D-printed short provisional crowns—an in-vitro study

This in-vitro study evaluated the influence of total occlusal convergence (TOC) (10°/20°) and auxiliary retentive features (ARF) (groove, proximal box) on regional marginal discrepancy in milled (CopraTemp PMMA) and 3D-printed (Asiga Dentatooth) short (3 mm) provisional crowns (P...
