Effect of veneering materials on fracture loads of implant-supported zirconia molar fixed dental prostheses
ConclusionsIndirect composite appears to be a useful alternative to feldspathic porcelain as the layering material for implant-supported zirconia FDPs. The AD group had higher fracture loads than UT group. In addition, implant-supported indirect composite-veneered zirconia-based FDPs appear to be clinically feasible.

Ten-year survival of immediate-loading implants in fully edentulous mandibles in the Japanese population: a multilevel analysis
ConclusionsImmediate-loading implant treatment for completely edentulous mandibles had acceptable clinical results in the long term. Although we could not identify significant risk factors, we established a multilevel mixed-effects parametric survival analysis with the immediate-loading implant survival data.

Effect of multi-purpose primers on the bond durability between tri-n-butylborane initiated resin and gold alloy
ConclusionsMulti-purpose primers containing a sulfur-containing monomer increased the bond strength of a TBB-initiated acrylic resin to a gold alloy. The proportion of the area of cohesive failure to the bonded area showed an interrelationship with the shear bond strength testing results. (Source: Journal of Prosthodontic Research)

Mechanical properties of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing resin composites assuming perfect silane coupling using in silico homogenization of cryo-electron microscopy images
ConclusionsA CAD/CAM resin composite model was successfully reconstructed from cryo-EM images, suggesting that the established image processing method is useful for producing dental restorative materials containing nano-fillers and for predicting homogenized mechanical properties. The homogenized mechanical properties indicated that the mechanical properties of the CAD/CAM RCB assumed perfect silane coupling between the fillers and resin matrix.

Titanium clasp fabricated by selective laser melting, CNC milling, and conventional casting: a comparative in vitro in vitro study
ConclusionsMilling has the potential to replace casting for fabricating removable partial denture (RPD) titanium clasps. However, SLM should be further improved for fabricating RPD titanium clasps before clinical application. (Source: Journal of Prosthodontic Research)

Evaluation of salivary cortisol levels in relation to dento-maxillary prosthesis adjustment
ConclusionsWithin the limitations of this study, the results suggest that a reduction in symptoms of discomfort may have an influence on the decrease of salivary cortisol levels in dento-maxillary prosthesis wearers. (Source: Journal of Prosthodontic Research)

The number of implants required to support a maxillary overdenture: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionsThe findings of our analysis indicate that overall the most frequent tendency is to place at least four implants, splinted or unsplinted, in order to ensure a higher survival rate of implants. However, the relationship between overdenture survival, the patient’s quality of life, and the number of implants required to support a maxillary overdenture has yet to be clarified.

Current status of zirconia implants in dentistry: preclinical tests
ConclusionsDue to its good biocompatibility as well as favorable physical and mechanical properties, zirconia implants are a potential alternative to titanium implants. However, knowledge regarding the implant-restorative complex and related aspects is still immature to recommend its application for daily practice. (Source: Journal of Prosthodontic Research)
