Materials and methods A total of 72 square-shaped samples (0.8 mm in thickness, 10 mm in width and 12 mm in length) were divided into three groups (n = 24) according to the studied materials: Celtra Duo, IPS e.max CAD/CAM and Nacera Hybrid. Each group was subdivided into three subgroups (n = 8) according to the three immersion solutions applied: artificial saliva, Hype and Power horse energetic drinks. Samples were sectioned using an Isomet 4000 (Buehler, Lake Bluff, USA) and then stored in artificial saliva for 24 h before doing the baseline color, surface roughness and microhardness measurements. For determination of color change (ΔE), a reflective spectrophotometer was used. Surface roughness (SR) testing was carried out using an optical profilometer with a built-in camera and the microhardness (HV) investigation was performed with a Microhardness Digital Tester. After 60 days of immersion in energetic drinks, these measurements for color stability, surface roughness and microhardness were repeated in the same way. Data were tabulated and analyzed using a two-way ANOVA followed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey's post-hoc test with a significance level assigned at P ≤ 0.05 for all tests. Results Statistical analysis revealed significant differences between studied groups for CS (P = 0.031), SR (P = 0.012) and HV (P = 0.028). Celtra Duo recorded the lowest color change (0.57 ± 0.09) and surface roughness (0.2499 ± 0.0033) and greatest microhardness (659.62 ± 6.10) with all immersion solutions. Nacera Hybrid material showed poorer values in all investigated properties compared to Celtra Duo and IPS e.max ceramics. For all studied materials, the greatest effect of immersion solutions on CS, SR and HV was exhibited by Power horse followed by Hype and artificial saliva. Conclusions The energetic drinks studied significantly increased SR and decreased CS and VH of Nacera Hybrid. Celtra Duo and IPS e.max CAD/CAM ceramics showed greater resistance to acidic energetic drinks compared Nacera Hybrid material. Clinical significance It is essential for the dentist to reinforce the awareness of patients regarding the risks of heavy consumption of energetic drinks. Nacera Hybrid material is a promising material but should not be used in esthetic restorations.","PeriodicalId":22324,"journal":{"name":"Tanta Dental Journal","volume":"15 1","pages":"8 - 17"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85833050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Flabby ridges will be easily displaced under occlusal stresses owing to unfavorable support, resulting in compromised denture retention. Intraoral digital impression has not been exposed to deal with this problem. Purpose To compare intraoral digital impression versus conventional selective pressure impression technique for maxillary flabby ridge registration in complete denture construction regarding soft tissue assessment. Patients and methods This crossover study enrolled seven completely edentulous patients with a localized maxillary anterior flabby ridge. Each patient received two identical maxillary complete dentures opposing one mandibular complete denture. The first denture was constructed using intraoral scanning of the edentulous maxillary ridge then compressing only the healthy tissues by 0.25 mm using Exocad software to simulate selective pressure technique, the second denture was constructed through conventional selective pressure impression technique. Each maxillary denture was subjectively evaluated for soft tissue response at 15 days and 3 months with 15 days rest period in between, data was statistically analyzed using χ2 test. Results There was statistically significant difference between the two maxillary dentures regarding soft tissue assessment in favor of the second maxillary denture. Conclusion Prosthodontist must pay more attention during intraoral scanning of edentulous arch due to lack of anatomical landmarks. More and more attention must be paid during intraoral scanning of edentulous ridges with flabby tissues due to the difference in the degree of mucosa compressibility.","PeriodicalId":22324,"journal":{"name":"Tanta Dental Journal","volume":"8 1","pages":"109 - 113"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86125993","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and methods Forty zirconia disc samples (10 mm in diameter, 2 mm in thickness) were prepared by CAD/CAM systems (SILADENT) divided in two main groups: (a) group 1: 20 samples were treated with Futurabond M+ adhesive, (b) group 2: 20 samples were treated with Panavia F 2.0 adhesive. All samples were individually and horizontally mounted on a computer-controlled materials testing machine with a load cell of 5 kN and data were recorded using computer software. Intragroup analysis and comparison between two groups will be done using one way analysis of variance test. Results Data were presented as mean, SD, range (minimum–maximum) for numerical values. Student t test and analysis of variance were used to study the effect of cements and thermal aging on mean values. χ2 test was done between failure modes scores.

Panavia F 2.0 has comparable shear bond strength to Futurabond M+ in case of water storage and thermocycling aging but in nonaging, Futurabond M+ show higher shear bond strength than Panavia F 2.0.

Although the maxillary CEOT is rare, its biological behavior is indolent. Aim A comprehensive immunohistochemical study was performed concerning the local aggressive behavior of this tumor. Patients and methods In this study, 12 cases of patients who were attended in the outpatient clinic of the Oral and Maxillofacial Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Tanta University were included in this study after confirmed incisional biopsy of CEOT. The patients were examined clinically preoperative and aspiration test was done. After finishing the tumor resection, closure of the maxillary defect was done by double layer repair of the defect. Biopsy of this tumor was stained by the following markers p63, Ki67, type IV collagen, smooth muscle actin (SMA), CK19, CK5/6, S100 to study the biological behavior of the tumor. Results The neoplastic cells were diffusely cytoplasmic immunoreactive for CK19 and CK5/6. Also, the tumor cells showed mild to moderate staining to SMA. Weak intensity of collagen type IV was detected. The amyloid-like deposit was immunonegative for both SMA and type IV collagen. p63 was expressed in all studied cases. Strong to moderate nuclear staining to p63 was detected in the tumor cells. The Ki67 showed high proliferation activity of tumor cells differing from the benign tumor nature.
