Effect of fit adjustment on CEREC CAD-CAM veneers

Abstract

To measure and compare the adaptation of CEREC CAD-CAM porcelain veneers with and without fit adjustment. Two groups of porcelain veneers were fabricated using the CEREC CAD-CAM technique for standardized preparations on 10 artificial teeth. Mesial preparation contacts were broken, but distal contacts remained intact. One group was adjusted using a disclosing spray to improve fit, another group made for the same teeth was not adjusted before cementation. The veneers were cemented in a standardized manner to their teeth. The veneers and their attached cement were retrieved, embedded in epoxy resin and sectioned twice to produce eight sections. Each section was measured at three defined points from the external surface inwards. Three-way ANOVA disclosed that fit adjustment was relatively ineffective (P approximately 0.05), but that measurement section location, measurement point location and their interaction significantly affected fit (P < 0.05). Restoration of the broken proximal contact, or simulated diastema closure did not compromise fit. Incisal margins ranked worst for fit. Surface measurement point locations ranked worse than internal points. The fit of these CEREC CAD-CAM veneers was not substantially different from prev...Continue Reading

Cavernous Hemangioma

Cavernous hemangioma is a blood vessel defect or benign tumor that leads to leakage of blood to the surrounding tissues. This can occur in several organs including the brain, which can lead to seizures. Discover the latest research on cavernous hemangiomas here.
