In Vitro Fracture Resistance of Adhesively Restored Molar Teeth with Different MOD Cavity Dimensions
ConclusionsWithin the limitations of this investigation, the following conclusions can be drawn regarding molar teeth with a MOD cavity: 3 mm or shallower cavities can be restored to the physiological fracture strength with direct composite restorations; 5 mm or deeper cavities cannot be restored to the physiological fracture strength with direct composite restorations. Cusp thickness does not significantly influence fracture strength in molar MOD cavities with a direct composite restoration. (Source: Journal of Prosthodontics)

Physical Properties, Film Thickness, and Bond Strengths of Resin ‐Modified Glass Ionomer Cements According to Their Delivery Method
ConclusionsChange in the dispensing/mixing method of RMGI cement from the same brand may have an effect on its physical properties, in addition to its film thickness and shear bond strength. Newer, easier, and faster cement delivery systems are not necessarily better. Clinical outcomes of these differences are yet to be confirmed. (Source: Journal of Prosthodontics)

Multidisciplinary Approach for Full ‐Mouth Rehabilitation of an Adult Patient with Collapsed Occlusal Plane and Several Missing Teeth: A Clinical Report
Abstract
In the full‐mouth rehabilitation of a patient with severely collapsed occlusion, a multidisciplinary approach including prosthodontics, orthodontics, endodontics, and surgery could provide better esthetic and functional results. Orthodontic treatment aiming for stable occlusion that meets the standard requirement of functional occlusion, enables the maintenance of occlusal function, and guarantees long‐term stability on the basis of periodontal health was attempted. The essential element of this protocol is careful treatment planning based on the optimal sequence pursuing functional occlusion. (Source: Journal of Prosthodontics)

Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial to Compare Posterior Implant ‐Supported Modified Monolithic Zirconia and Metal‐Ceramic Single Crowns: One‐Year Results
ConclusionThe modified monolithic zirconia design applied to the posterior implant‐supported SCs had a significantly lower technical complication rate than did the metal‐ceramic one. (Source: Journal of Prosthodontics)

Translucency of Zirconia Ceramics before and after Artificial Aging
ConclusionsAging reduced the translucency in all specimens tested. Furthermore, translucency differed between the zirconia brands tested. Nevertheless, the differences were below the detectability threshold of the human eye. The aging process can influence the translucency and thus the esthetic outcome of zirconia restorations; however, the changes in translucency were minimal and probably undetectable by the human eye.

A Technique for Digital Impression and Bite Registration for a Single Edentulous Arch
This article describes a digitizing system for generating digital edentulous models with a jaw relationship by taking direct digital impressions and a virtual bite registration using intraoral digital scanning. A specialized scan retractor was used to make digital impressions of edentulous jaws in patients’ mouths using an intraoral scanner. Virtual bite registration was obtained with optical scanning of the buccal surfaces of both jaws at the occlusal vertical dimension. The registration was then used as a reference for aligning both jaws. Digital edentulous models that include the jaw relationship would be clinically b...

Evaluation of a Realistic Cleansing Protocol for Preventing Discoloration of Denture Resins
ConclusionThe evaluated protocol A was found effective in preventing color changes in both denture resins even after a long period of action. Protocol C had a much lower staining effect on both resins than protocol B and behaved similarly to protocol A until 140 to 160 cycles. Therefore, it is probably not appropriate for use in short‐term color stability experiments. (Source: Journal of Prosthodontics)
