Purpose: The objective of this research was to test the hypothesis that 3-unit fixed partial dentures (FPDs) made from a moderately high-strength core ceramic will adequately resist fracture in posterior regions if fabricated with a minimal connector size of 4 mm.

The 2023 Core Content of advanced emergency medicine ultrasonography (Core Content) is the basis for all AEMUS examination content. The distribution of exam questions based on content area is as follows:

Based on this review, Zirconia FPDs can be considered reliable products in both the anterior and posterior fields with survival rates comparable to traditional metal-ceramic prostheses. Keywords: zirconia, fixed partial dentures, fracture strenght, connector size, long term behavior.

High-strength all-ceramic systems for fixed partial dentures (FPDs) are available for replacing a missing tooth. New core/framework materials have been developed and have evolved in the last decade.

Sep 3, 2017 · After placing a post, dentists routinely place a core. This core permeates the post, fills in empty space in the endodontic chamber, seals the endodontic chamber against future bacterial invasion, and presumably “reinforces” the tooth.

Purpose: The purpose of this research project was to determine the clinical success rate of a lithia disilicate-based core ceramic for use in posterior fixed partial dentures (FPD) as a function of bite force, cement type, connector height, and connector width.

A total of 40 four-unit FPD cores supported by end abutments and having two pontics were manufactured in Procera ® Zirconia. Five groups of FPD cores with connector dimensions of 2·0, 2·5, 3·0, 3·5 and 4·0 mm were produced.

Five groups of FPD cores with connector dimensions of 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0 mm were produced. All FPD cores underwent a firing programme according to the manufacturer's recommendations for the veneering porcelain, a cyclic preload, …
