    Prosthetic Complications with Mandibular Bar-Retained Implant Overdentures Having Distal Attachments and Metal Frameworks: A 2-To 12-Year Retrospective Analysis
    (2023) Ciftci, Gozde; Somay, Suphi Deniz; Ozcan, Isil; Ozcelik, Tuncer Burak; Yilmaz, Burak; 0000-0001-5685-4409; 34998584; JJF-5618-2023
    Statement of problem. Long-term reports on 2-implant-retained overdentures having metal frameworks and bars containing distal attachments are scarce.Purpose. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate prosthetic complications with 2-implant-retained mandibular overdentures with metal frameworks having either screw-or cement-retained cantilevered bars with distal attachments.Material and methods. Seventy-three edentulous study participants who had been treated with mandibular overdentures with 2 implants were included. The parameters assessed were acrylic resin fractures (base fracture, fracture at midline), debonding of teeth, opposing prosthesis fracture, need for relining or rebasing, abutment and bar screw loosening and fracture, ball or bar attachment or clip wear, fracture or detachment, bar fracture, and implant loss. Statistical analysis was performed by using the Mann-Whitney U test as the data were not normally distributed. The categorical variables between the groups were analyzed by using the Fisher exact test (alpha=.05).Results. Twenty-seven prostheses had a cement-retained bar, and 46 bars were screw-retained. Of 73 overdentures, 68 were metal-reinforced. The mean observation time was 5.9 years with a range between 2 and 12 years. The most common complication was wear of the Rhein 83 polymer attachment followed by bar screw loosening. The cumulative survival rate for overdentures was 91.9% at 6.8 years. The service life of cement-retained prostheses was significantly longer (P<.05). Bar, resin base, and mid-line fractures were only seen with cement-retained prostheses. The number of times an attachment change was required did not differ between cement-and screw-retained bars. Of 191 implants, 3 were lost, and the cumulative survival rate was 93.5% at 7.5 years. No significant difference was found between retention types in terms of implant loss (P>.05).Conclusions. Based on the participant population observed, the survival rates of 2-implant-retained mandibular overdentures and their implants in the medium term were high. Wear of the polymer attachment was commonly seen. Overdentures with cement-retained bars had bar or acrylic resin fractures. Mandibular 2-implant-retained overdentures with a screw-retained bar containing bilateral distal attachments had fewer prosthetic complications and high implant survival in the medium term.

    An Alternative Impression Technique for Complete Dentures
    (2014) Yilmaz, Burak; Ozcelik, Tuncer Burak; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5685-4409; 24286641; JJF-5618-2023
    This article describes a technique for creating adequate space for an even thickness of polyvinyl siloxane (PVS) impression material at the periphery during complete denture impression making. A PVS border molding material is injected around the borders of a custom tray, a 17-mu m-thick stretch wrap film is folded into 4 layers, and a tray-shaped piece slightly larger than the size of the custom tray is placed on the tray covering the borders. After the border molding procedure is completed, the film is removed and the definitive impression completed with a medium-viscosity PVS impression material.

    Effect of Different Surface-Cleaning Techniques on The Bond Strength of Composite Resin Restorations
    (2014) Erkut, Selim; Yilmaz, Burak; Bagis, Bora; Kucukemen, Cigdem; Ozdemir, Erdem; Acar, Ozlem; 24939254
    Statement of problem. Different techniques have been suggested for cleaning dentin surfaces after the removal of an interim prosthesis and before the application of a bonding agent. How different surface-cleaning techniques affect the bond strength of the composite resin restorations is not clear. Purpose. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of different surface-cleaning techniques on the bond strength of composite resin restorations and the surface topography of the prepared tooth surfaces. Material and methods. The occlusal surfaces of 25 molars were ground until the dentin was exposed. A bonding agent and interim cement were applied on the teeth. The teeth were divided into 5 groups (n=5) according to the method used for surface-cleaning (microairborne-particle abrasion, alcohol, rubber-rotary instrument, desiccating agent, and control). Once the surfaces of the teeth had been cleaned, the same bonding material was applied to the teeth. A 5-mm-thick composite resin layer was built up. Each specimen was sectioned to microbars, and 6 centrally located beams were selected for microtensile testing (n=30) (1.10 +/- 0.10 mm). The data were statistically analyzed with 1-way ANOVA (1-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test). The Bonferroni test was used for significantly different groups (alpha=.05). One specimen from each group was observed under a scanning electron microscope and an atomic force microscope. Energy dispersive x-ray analysis also was performed. Results. Bond strength values were in the following descending order: microairborne-particle abrasion, desiccating agent, alcohol, rubber-rotary instrument, control. Differences between the microairborne-particle abrasion group and the remainder of the groups, desiccating agent-rubber-rotary instrument, desiccating agent-control, alcohol-rubber-rotary instrument, and alcohol-control groups, were statistically significant (P<.05). The microairborne-particle abrasion group displayed the roughest surface and a different surface topography from the remainder of the groups. Increased aluminum was observed in the microairborne-particle abrasion group. Conclusions. Surface-cleaning techniques, except for the rubber-rotary instrument, increased the bond strength of composite resin. The roughest dentin surfaces and highest bond strength were achieved with the microairborne-particle abrasion technique.

    (2016) Acar, Ozlem; Yilmaz, Burak; Altintas, Subutay Han; Chandrasekaran, Indumathi; Johnston, William M.; 26386483
    Statement of problem. The color stainability of recently introduced computer-assisted design/computer-assisted manufacturing (CAD/CAM) hybrid ceramic and resin nanoceramic is unknown. Purpose. The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the effect of coffee staining on the color of 3 different CAD/CAM restorative materials and a nanocomposite resin. Material and methods. Specimens from a hybrid dental ceramic (VITA Enamic), a resin nanoceramic (Lava Ultimate), a lithium disilicate glass ceramic (IPS e.max CAD), and a nanocomposite resin (Filtek Supreme Ultra Universal) were evaluated for color change due to thermocycling in coffee (n=5). Specimens 0.5 to 0.7 mm and 1 to 1.2 mm in thickness were thermocycled for 5000 cycles. CIEDE2000 color differences (Delta E-00) due to thermocycling in coffee were calculated using the color coordinates obtained from a spectroradiometer. ANCOVA was used to analyze the color differences among the materials with thickness as the covariate. Significant differences at average thickness were analyzed with the Tukey-Kramer test. Results. For color difference due to staining, thickness was a significant covariate (P<.001). Regarding the analysis of color differences, every pair of the tested materials was significantly different (P<.001). Least squares means of color differences (Delta E-00) at mean thickness were 4.34 for the nanohybrid composite resin, 3.66 for the resin nanoceramic, 1.35 for the hybrid ceramic, and 0.43 for the lithium disilicate ceramic. Conclusion. When exposed to hot and cold coffee, the color change was beyond clinical acceptability for the tested resin nanoceramic and nanocomposite resin materials. The average color change of the hybrid ceramic was clinically perceivable over the tested thickness values. The color change of lithium disilicate ceramic was not clinically perceivable at any tested thickness.

    Effect of Cement Space on The Marginal Fit of CAD-CAM-Fabricated Monolithic Zirconia Crowns
    (2016) Kale, Ediz; Seker, Emre; Yilmaz, Burak; Ozcelik, Tuncer Burak; 0000-0001-8761-0298; 0000-0002-7101-363X; 27460314; O-2753-2013; AAE-5350-2019
    Statement of problem. Monolithic zirconia crowns fabricated with computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) have recently become a common practice for the restoration of posterior teeth. The marginal fit of monolithic zirconia crowns may be affected by different cement space parameters set in the CAD software. Information is scarce regarding the effect of cement space on the marginal fit of monolithic zirconia crowns fabricated with CAD CAM technology. Purpose. The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of cement space on the marginal fit of CAD-CAM-fabricated monolithic zirconia crowns before cementation. Material and methods. Fifteen right maxillary first molar typodont teeth with standardized anatomic preparations for complete-coverage ceramic crowns were scanned with a 3-dimensional laboratory scanner. Crowns were designed 3-dimensionally using software and then milled from presintered monolithic zirconia blocks in a computer numerical control dental milling machine. The cement space was set at 25 mu m around the margins for all groups, and additional cement space starting 1 mm above the finish lines of the teeth was set at 30 mu m for group 25-30, 40 mu m for group 25-40, and 50 mu m for group 25-50 in the CAD software. A total of 120 images (3 groups, 5 crowns per group, 8 sites per crown) were measured for vertical marginal discrepancy under a stereoscopic zoom microscope and the data were statistically analyzed with 1-way analysis of variance, followed by the Tukey honestly significant difference test (alpha=.05). Results. The results showed that different cement space values had statistically significant effect on the mean vertical marginal discrepancy value of tested crowns (P<.001). The mean marginal discrepancy was 85 mu m for group 25-30, 68 mu m for group 25-40, and 53 mu m for group 25-50. Conclusions. Within the limitations of this in vitro study, it was concluded that the cement space had a significant effect on the marginal fit of CAD-CAM-fabricated monolithic zirconia crowns. The marginal fit improved as the cement space decreased.

    Effect of Fabrication Stages and Cementation on The Marginal Fit of CAD-CAM Monolithic Zirconia Crowns
    (2017) Kale, Ediz; Yilmaz, Burak; Seker, Emre; Ozcelik, Tuncer Burak; 28434679
    Statement of problem. Monolithic zirconia crowns fabricated using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) technology have recently become an alternative dental prosthetic treatment. The marginal fit of monolithic zirconia crown may be affected by different stages of the fabrication procedures in the laboratory and cementation. Information regarding the accuracy of fit of monolithic zirconia crowns at different stages of fabrication and cementation is limited. Purpose. The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of different stages of fabrication and cementation on the vertical marginal discrepancy (VMD) of CAD-CAM fabricated monolithic zirconia crowns. Material and methods. Six ivorine right maxillary first molar typodont teeth with standardized anatomic preparations for complete coverage ceramic crowns were scanned with a 3-dimensional laboratory scanner. Crowns were designed using CAD software and milled from presintered monolithic zirconia blocks in a 5-axis dental milling machine. A cement space of 25 pm for the margins and a 50-gm space starting 1 mm above the finish lines of the teeth were virtually set in the CAD software. A total of 144 measurements were performed on 6 specimens with 8 measurement locations in 3 different stages using stereoscopic zoom microscopy; after initial production of the crowns (post-sintering group), after glazing (post-glazing group), and after cementation (post-cementation group). The VMD values were statistically analyzed with 1-way repeated measures ANOVA and the Holm-Sidak method (alpha=.05). Results. Different stages of fabrication and cementation significantly affected the VMD of tested crowns (P=.003). The mean VMD was 38 gm for post-sintering group, 38 pm for post-glazing group, and 60 mu m for post-cementation group, with statistical differences between the post-sintering group, the post-cementation group (P<.002), and the post-glazing group and post-cementation group (P<.003); there were no statistical differences between the post-sintering group and the post-glazing group (P=.966). Conclusions. Within the limitations of this in vitro study, glazing did not significantly change the VMD of CAD-CAM monolithic zirconia crowns. Cementation significantly increased the VMD values.

    Effect of Metal Opaquer on The Final Color of 3 Ceramic Crown Types on 3 Abutment Configurations
    (2018) Arif, Rabia; Yilmaz, Burak; Mortazavi, Aras; Ozcelik, Tuncer B.; Johnston, William M.; 29724553
    Statement of problem. The effect of a recently introduced metal opaquer when used to mask the color of a titanium abutment under ceramic crown systems is unknown. Purpose. The purpose of this study was to compare the color coordinates of 3 ceramic crown types-characterized monolithic lithium disilicate (LDC) (IPS e.max; Ivoclar Vivadent AG), layered lithium disilicate (LDL) (IPS e.max; Ivoclar Vivadent AG), and layered zirconia (ZL) (H.C. Starck)-on 3 abutment configurations, nonopaqued titanium (Ti), resin opaqued titanium (Op), and zirconia (Zir). In addition, the color differences (CIEDE2000) were evaluated among the 3 crown types on 3 different abutment substrates. Material and methods. Ten Ti disks (10x1 mm) were fabricated with computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) to represent the Ti abutments. Five Ti specimens were opaqued (Op) (whiteMetal Opaquer wMO; Blue Sky Bio), and 5 were not opaqued (Ti). Ten zirconia disks were fabricated with CAD-CAM and sintered (10x1.2 mm). Five disks were used as backings to represent Zir abutments, and 5 disks were layered with 1 mm of porcelain (131, IPS e.Max Ceram; Ivoclar Vivadent AG) to represent layered zirconia crowns (ZL). Ten lithium disilicate plates (14x14x1.2 mm) were sectioned from CAD blocks (B1 IPS e.Max CAD; Ivoclar Vivadent AG). Five plates were layered with the same porcelain (B1, 1 mm), and 5 plates were surface characterized and glazed. An LDL crown on a Zir abutment configuration was used as the control. The 3 simulated crown types (n=5) were optically connected to each of the 3 abutment types, and the color of the 9 groups was measured using a spectroradiometer. Measured data were reported in CIELab coordinates. CIELab data were used to calculate color differences between the control and the 8 experimental groups. Color data were summarized for each group, and analyzed by repeated-measures ANOVA. For pairwise comparisons, a Bonferroni correction of t tests was used, and for interpretive analysis of resulting color difference data, a 1-way ANOVA and subsequent Tukey testing for pairwise comparisons were used. Results. The statistical significance of the analysis of color coordinates was found to be P <=.002. Although 3-way interaction was not found to be significant (P=.335), all three 2-way interactions of the main effects were found to be significant (P <=.002). All crown types on the Zir abutment revealed color differences from the control group. The color differences of the crown types on the Op and Zir abutment configurations compared with the control (LDL/Zir) were not (P>.05) statistically different. Conclusions. Colors of tested crown systems on Ti backing were each unacceptably different from the control group. Colors of these systems on zirconia backing were not perceivably different. Use of opaquer on titanium backing resulted in a small color difference from the control group (P>.05) for each crown system, demonstrating that it may be used to prevent the unfavorable metal show-through that can influence the final color of all ceramic crown systems tested.

    Marginal fit of 3-unit CAD-CAM zirconia frameworks fabricated using cone beam computed tomography scans: an experimental study
    (2021) Belgin, Huseyin Berkay; Kale, Ediz; Ozcelik, Tuncer Burak; Yilmaz, Burak; 34665345
    Whether cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans can be used for the fabrication of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) is not known. The purpose of the present study was to compare the marginal fit of 3-unit zirconia FDPs fabricated by using CBCT or 3-dimensional (3D) laboratory scanning. Extracted second premolar and molar teeth in a maxillary typodont model were prepared. The first molar was removed and the typodont model was scanned with a laboratory or a CBCT scanner to generate two virtual 3D cast groups (3DL and CBCT). Forty four 3-unit zirconia FDPs were designed on virtual casts and milled. The vertical marginal discrepancy (VMD) was measured by x100-magnification microscopy at seven locations on each abutment. A total of 616 measurements were made at 14 fixed locations in two groups of 22 specimens. The VMD data for 3DL and CBCT groups were statistically analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test (alpha = 0.05). The mean VMDs on premolar ranged between 44 and 55 mu m (median: 43-55 mu m) in 3DL, and 74 and 100 mu m (median: 72-93 mu m) in CBCT; and on the molar, between 47 and 114 mu m (median: 46-114 mu m) in 3DL, and 91 and 162 mu m (median: 93-156 mu m) in CBCT. There was a significant difference between the gaps in 3DL and CBCT groups (p < 0.001). FDPs fabricated using 3D laboratory scanner had significantly smaller VMDs. Nevertheless, the 3-unit zirconia FDPs fabricated using CBCT scans presented promising marginal integrity.

    Marginal fit of CAD-CAM monolithic zirconia crowns fabricated by using cone beam computed tomography scans
    (2020) Kale, Ediz; Cilli, Mesutcan; Ozcelik, Tuncer Burak; Yilmaz, Burak; 31653403
    Statement of problem: Information regarding the precision of monolithic zirconia crowns fabricated by using a standard computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) workflow is available. However, information on the effect of a modified workflow using 3D laboratory scanning and/or cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for monolithic zirconia crown fabrication is lacking. Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of different scans on the marginal fit of CAD-CAM monolithic zirconia crowns fabricated by 3D laboratory scanning and CBCT. Material and methods: An extracted maxillary left first molar was prepared and digitized by using a 3D laboratory scanner (D900; 3Shape A/S) (control group). The tooth was also scanned by CBCT (i-CAT; Imaging Sciences) to generate a second virtual 3D model (CBCTscan group). A tooth cast out of polyurethane (PU) (Zenotec Model; Wieland) was reproduced from the CBCT data by using a CAD software program (Dental System 2.6; 3Shape A/S) and milling machine (CORiTEC 550i; imes-icore) and further scanned by using the 3D laboratory scanner to generate a third virtual 3D model to represent a clinical scenario where a patient's cast is needed (PU3DLab group). A monolithic zirconia crown design (cement space: margin 40 mu m, 1 mm above 70 mu m) was used on the virtual models, and crowns were fabricated out of presintered zirconia blocks (ZenostarT4; Wieland) by using a 5-axis milling machine (CORiTEC 550i; imes-icore). The crowns were sintered (Sinterofen HT-S Speed; Mihm-Vogt), and the vertical marginal discrepancy (VMD) was measured by x100-magnification microscopy. Measurements were made at 384 points in 3 groups of 16 specimens. The measurements for each specimen were averaged, and VMD mean values were calculated. The Kruskal-Wallis test was used for the statistical analysis (alpha=.05). The Mann-Whitney U test and Bonferroni adjustment were further used to compare the pairs (alpha=.017). Results: The mean VMD value was 41 mu m (median: 38 mu m) for the control group, 44 mu m (median: 42 mu m) for the CBCTscan, and 60 mu m (median: 58 mu m) for the PU3DLab. No significant difference was found between control and CBCTscan groups (P=.274). However, there was a significant difference between control and PU3DLab and CBCTscan and PU3DLab groups (P<.001). Conclusions: Marginal fit of the crowns fabricated by using the 3D laboratory scanner and through the direct use of CBCT was better than that of the crowns fabricated by using the workflow that combined the use of CBCT, PU cast, and 3D laboratory scanner. All tested protocols enabled the fabrication of monolithic zirconia crowns with a marginal discrepancy smaller than 120 mu m.

    Marginal Adaptation of Provisional CAD/CAM Restorations Fabricated Using Various Simulated Digital Cement Space Settings
    (2018) Ozcelik, Tuncer Burak; Yilmaz, Burak; Seker, Emre; Shah, Karnik; 30231093
    Purpose: The ideal digital cement space value for the fabrication of provisional computer-aided design/ computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) crowns with clinically acceptable marginal adaptation is not well known. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different simulated cement space settings on the marginal tit of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) provisional CAD/CAM restorations. Materials and Methods: An extracted premolar tooth was prepared using ceramic crown preparation guidelines and represented both natural teeth and/or custom implant abutments. The prepared tooth abutment was scanned with a three-dimensional (3D) laboratory scanner (D900, 3Shape). CAD design software was used to subsequently design a premolar crown core with three different simulated cement space settings (20 to 40 mu m, 20 to 50 mu m, 20 to 60 mu m). PMMA blocks were used to mill the specimens (n = 9, N = 27). Using a stereo zoom microscope, a total of 36 images for each of the 3 groups (9 crowns per group, 4 sites per crown) were captured to measure the mean vertical marginal discrepancy for every group. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to analyze the data, and the post hoc Tukey multiple comparison test was performed. Results: The marginal gap values of the PMMA cores fabricated using the three cement space settings were significantly different from each other (P < .001). The marginal gap was smaller with a 20- to 60-mu m setting compared with 20 to 50 mu m and 20 to 40 mu m, and the 20- to 50-mu m setting allowed for smaller marginal gaps compared with 20 to 40 mu m (P < .001). Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, the marginal gaps of CAD/CAM-fabricated PMMA cores were smaller when the cement space was larger. The smallest marginal gaps were achieved when a 20- to 60-mu m cement space was used (P < .001).
