OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effects of different machining modes on the flexural strength CAD-CAM restorative materials. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Four different CAD-CAM materials were used: VITA MARKII, VITA Enamic (VITA Zahnfabrik), Empress CAD, and e.max CAD (Ivoclar Vivadent). Rectangular bars for each material (except e.max CAD) were made by three procedures: saw cut, normal mill and fast mill. Each subgroup had a sample size of 5. Saw cut bars were cut by a BUHLER diamond blade saw. Milled bars were made using SIRONA CEREC MCXL milling unit. The 3-point flexural strength test was performed using a universal testing machine. Surface roughness was measured using a profilomer. Student t-test and Tukey-Kramer statistical analysis were performed to check significant differences. RESULTS: e.max CAD saw cut group was significantly stronger than the milled group. There was no difference in the strength of the Empress CAD groups. Enamic saw cut group was significantly stronger than the normal milled but not the fast milled one. There was no significant difference between the Enamic milled groups. Vita MKII saw cut was significantly stronger than both milled groups. There was no difference in the strength between the milled MKII groups. The surface roughness of the saw cut groups in all materials were significantly less than their milled counterparts in both longitudinal and transverse measurements. CONCLUSION: Machining had a significant effect on the surface roughness of materials. Damage from machining can cause the material to have lower flexural strength.

The master theses is focused on design of the new multi-purpose recreation building with several possibilities of utilization of the space due to the most sustainability of the building. The text part of the thesis describes the software used for designing wooden constructions and wooden structures. One software is chosen, which is used for the making of the part of the project documentation of the building. Advanced software options, collaboration, data sharing, and more are described for selected software. The work is conceived as an illustration and description of extended functions and advanced level of use in selected software. The purpose is to save time, cost and make the design process more efficient.

PURPOSE: To analyze surface roughness, the edge chipping of different CAD/CAM bur milled dental materials (bar and crown design of 1.0mm and 1.5mm thickness), correlate the effect of machining damage on the material strength, compare the flexural strength of bur milled versus sectioned CAD/CAM blocks and evaluate the tool wear after milling. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five dental CAD/CAM materials were used: Lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS e.max CAD), Leucite-reinforced glass-ceramic (IPS Empress CAD), Feldspathic porcelain (Vitablocs Mark II), Feldspar ceramic-polymer infiltrated (Enamic), and composite resin (Lava Ultimate). Ten rectangular bars with dimensions of 4 mm × 2 mm × 14 mm were milled using a new set of burs for each material. Then, ten crowns of each material with thicknesses of 1.0 mm and 1.5 mm were milled after scanning a standard aluminum die with corresponding marginal thickness. The bars surface roughness was measured. Then, three specimens were selected for the edge chipping analysis using (SEM). Thereafter, 3-point bend test was used to test the flexural strength of bur milled and saw cut bars with the same dimensions. For the crowns, load to failure test was used. One-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD post hoc tests to determine the difference between the groups using JMP13.0 with α=0.05. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: The surface roughness and edge chipping was significantly affected by the material composition. Comparison of the flexural strength of bur milled to sectioned bars, IPS e.max CAD and IPS Empress CAD show statistically significant less flexural strength (p<0.001). A strong correlation was found between the decrease in flexural strength and the chipping length on the central tensile side of the bur milled materials (R2=0.62, p=0.01). Crown thickness significantly affects the edge chipping as 1.5 mm crown thickness has more edge chipping than 1.0 mm crowns. However, no correlation is found between the load to failure test for the crown design and the edge chipping for 1.5mm and 1.0 mm thickness crowns. Tool wear is significantly affected by the material type. / 2021-07-31

Introduction: No commercially available solution to improve the teaching of a crown preparation directly on typodont teeth exists at the moment. To fill this gap and support the supervisors of dental courses, a printable and inexpensive tooth was created for structured self-assessment. The aim of this study was to test this printable tooth under realistic pre-clinical situations. Materials and methods: A two-coloured, double-layer practice tooth was developed. This tooth was consisting of a layer for a correct preparation and the crown. All printed teeth were produced with a stereolithographic printer. 35 voluntary secondyear dental students in the second pre-clinical course in prosthodontics were randomly divided into two groups. All students had experience with typodont teeth and models. The first group was trained on four standard model teeth. The second group used model teeth for the first and fourth attempt and printed teeth for second and third attempt. The preparations of the students were scanned by an in-lab scanner and the surface deviations in contrast to a perfect preparation were measured. The differences between the first and fourth attempt were calculated. Benefits of the printed tooth were also evaluated by a questionnaire using German school grades completed by the students (1 = Excellent, 2 = Good, 3 = Satisfactory, 4 = Adequate, 5 = Poor, 6 = Unsatisfactory). Results: The workflow was feasible and cost-effective regarding the production of the printed teeth. The overall rating of the printed tooth in the questionnaire was good (Ø 2.1 ± 0.22). Students reported different advantages of this method in the free text. The comparison of the preparation between the first and fourth attempt showed that there was a significant better preparation with the printed teeth. The complete preparation had median values of 0.05 mm (Group1: standard model tooth) and −0.03 mm (Group2: printed tooth) (P = .005). Divided into single surfaces, the vestibular and occlusal regions were significantly better. The vestibular surface was 0.11 mm (Group1) and −0.04 mm (Group2) (P = .018). The occlusal surface was 0.13 mm (Group1) and −0.05 mm (Group2) (P = .009). Conclusions: The aim of this study was fulfilled. The printed tooth was tested successfully in a pre-clinical course. The feasibility of this teaching concept was confirmed by the questionnaire and the analysis of the preparation form. A significant difference to a standard model tooth was measurable. The students had the possibility to learn a correct crown preparation on a standardised two-layered tooth with included preparation. This printed tooth enabled the students to control the crown preparation directly on their own. / Einleitung: Es gibt derzeit keine kommerziell erhältliche Lösung zur Verbesserung des Erlernens einer Kronenpräparation an Modellzähnen. Um diese Lücke zu schließen und die Betreuer von zahnmedizinischen Kursen zu unterstützen, wurde ein druckbarer und kostengünstiger Zahn zur strukturierten Selbsteinschätzung entwickelt. Das Ziel dieser Studie war es, diesen druckbaren Zahn unter realistischen vorklinischen Situationen zu testen. Materialien und Methoden: Es wurde ein zweifarbiger, zweischichtiger Übungszahn entwickelt. Dieser Zahn bestand aus einer korrekten Präparationsschicht und der Zahnkrone. Alle gedruckten Zähne wurden mit einem Stereolithografiedrucker hergestellt. 35 freiwillige Zahnmedizinstudenten des zweiten vorklinischen Kurses im zweiten Jahr, wurden nach dem Zufallsprinzip in zwei Gruppen aufgeteilt. Alle Studenten hatten Erfahrung mit Modellzähnen. Die erste Gruppe trainierte an vier Standard-Modellzähnen. Die zweite Gruppe verwendete Modellzähne für den ersten und vierten Versuch und gedruckte Zähne für den zweiten und dritten Versuch. Die Präparationen der Studenten wurden mit einem In-Lab-Scanner gescannt und die Oberflächenabweichungen im Gegensatz zu einer perfekten Präparation gemessen. Die Unterschiede zwischen dem ersten und vierten Versuch wurden berechnet. Der Nutzen des gedruckten Zahnes wurde durch einen Fragebogen mit deutschen Schulnoten von den Studierenden bewertet (1 = Ausgezeichnet, 2 = Gut, 3 = Befriedigend, 4 = Ausreichend, 5 = Schlecht, 6 = Unbefriedigend). Ergebnisse: Der Arbeitsablauf war praktikabel und kostengünstig in der Herstellung der der gedruckten Zähne. Die Gesamtbewertung des gedruckten Zahns im Fragebogen war gut (Ø 2,1 ± 0,22). Die Studenten berichteten verschiedene Vorteile dieser Methode im Freitext. Der Vergleich der Präparation zwischen dem ersten und vierten Versuch zeigte, dass mit den gedruckten Zähnen eine signifikant bessere Präparation erreicht wurde. Die vollständige Präparation hatte Medianwerte von 0,05 mm (Gruppe1: Standardmodellzahn) und -0,03 mm (Gruppe2: gedruckter Zahn) (P = .005). Aufgeteilt in einzelne Flächen waren die vestibulären und okklusalen Bereiche signifikant besser. Für die vestibuläre Fläche ergaben sich folgende Werte 0,11 mm (Gruppe1) und -0,04 mm (Gruppe2) (P = .018). Für die Okklusalfläche ergab sich eine Abweichung von 0,13 mm (Gruppe1) und -0,05 mm (Gruppe2) (P = .009). Schlussfolgerungen: Das Ziel dieser Studie wurde erfüllt. Der gedruckte Zahn wurde erfolgreich in einem vorklinischen Kurs getestet. Die Machbarkeit dieses Lehrkonzepts wurde durch den Fragebogen und die Analyse der Präparationsform bestätigt. Ein signifikanter Unterschied zu einem Standard-Modellzahn war messbar. Die Studenten hatten die Möglichkeit eine korrekte Kronenpräparation an einem standardisierten zweischichtigen Zahn mit eingebauter Präparation zu üben. Dieser gedruckte Zahn ermöglichte es den Studenten die Kronenpräparation selbst zu kontrollieren.

Einführung Die Kranioplastik (KP) nach Kraniektomie dient der Wiederherstellung der Funktionalität und Ästhetik des Schädels. Obwohl es sich um einen Routineeingriff handelt, wurden hohe Komplikationsraten beschrieben, die zum Teil auf die unterschiedlichen Arten des verwendeten Implantatmaterials zurückzuführen sind. Wir haben diese Studie durchgeführt, um intraoperativ-geformte (Palacos®) und CAD-CAM-PMMA-Implantate bei Patienten/-innen nach Kraniektomie hinsichtlich perioperativer Modalitäten, kurz- und langfristiger Komplikationsraten und ästhetischer Ergebnisse zu vergleichen. Methoden Diese retrospektive Single-Center-Analyse wurde an 350 Patienten mit 359 Kranioplastiken durchgeführt, die sich in 133 Palacos®-Fälle (01/2005-12/2012) und 226 CAD-CAM-Fälle (01/2010-12/2018) aufteilten. Postoperative Komplikationen wurden in kurzfristige (≤ 30 Tage) und langfristige (> 30 Tage) unterteilt. Die ästhetischen Ergebnisse wurden per Telefoninterview erhoben und auf einer 5-Punkte-Skala bewertet. Ergebnisse CAD-CAM-Patienten hatten eine kürzere Operationszeit (p < 0.001), einen geringeren intraoperativen Blutverlust (p < 0.001) und einen kürzeren postoperativen Krankenhausaufenthalt (p < 0.005) als Palacos®-Patienten. Operative Revisionen nach CP mussten bei 12,8 % der Patienten durchgeführt werden. Implantatinfektionen traten bei 3,8 % der Palacos®-Fälle und 1,8 % der CAD-CAM-Fälle auf. Wundheilungsstörungen traten bei CAD-CAM-Patienten häufiger auf, was mit einer höheren Anzahl an kraniellen Vor-Operationen und Vorinfektionen einherging. Palacos®-Patienten hatten signifikant mehr Implantatdislokationen (p < 0.05). CAD-CAM-Patienten berichteten von einem besseren ästhetischen Ergebnis im Vergleich zu Palacos®-Patienten. Fazit Diese Studie zeigt eine Überlegenheit der CAD-CAM-PMMA-Implantate im Vergleich zu Palacos®-Implantaten hinsichtlich peri- und postoperativer Faktoren, sowie dem ästhetischen Ergebnis. CAD-CAM-Implantate haben geringere Komplikations- und Infektionsraten als Palacos®-Implantate und zeigten positive Wirkungen, wenn sie in vorinfiziertes Gewebe implantiert wurden. Die langfristigen Komplikationsraten von CAD-CAM-Implantaten müssen weiter evaluiert werden. / Introduction Cranioplasty (CP) after craniectomy restores the functionality and aesthetic of the patient’s cranial vault. Although it is a routine procedure, high complication rates have been described, partly related to the different type of implant material used. We conducted this study to compare intraoperative-moulded (Palacos®) and CAD-CAM-PMMA implants in patients underwent craniectomy regarding perioperative modalities, short- and long-term complication rates and aesthetic results. Methods This retrospective single-center-analysis was conducted on 350 patients with 359 cranioplasties, dividing into 133 Palacos® cases (01/2005-12/2012) and 226 CAD-CAM cases (01/2010-12/2018). Postoperative complications were divided into short-term (> 30 days) and long-term (< 30 days). Aesthetic results were evaluated via telephone interview on a 5-item scale. Results CAD-CAM patients had a shorter surgery time (p < 0.001), a lower intraoperative blood loss (p < 0.001) and shorter postoperative hospitalization (p < 0.005) than Palacos® patients. Operative revisions after CP had to be carried out at 12.8% of patients. Implant infections occurred in 3.8% of Palacos® cases and 1.8% of CAD-CAM cases. Wound healing disorders occurred more frequently in CAD-CAM patients, which was associated with higher cranial pre-operation and pre-infection rates. Palacos® patients had significantly more implant dislocations (p < 0.05). CAD-CAM patients reported a better aesthetic result compared to Palacos® patients. Conclusion This study shows superior peri-, postoperative and aesthetic results for CAD-CAM-implants compared to Palacos®. CAD-CAM implants have lower complication and infection rates than Palacos® implants and showed positive effects when implanted in pre-infected tissue. Long-term complication rates of CAD-CAM implant need to be further evaluated.
