The effects of different storage conditions on polyether and polyvinylsiloxane impressions

Article Abstract:

Dentists should insulate impressions from hot and cold weather when packaging them and make sure the packaging does not touch the impression. Impressions are made of teeth in order to create bridges and dentures and they are usually shipped to the manufacturers of these devices through the mail. However, temperatures inside some mail vans can reach 140 degrees F. Researchers found that such temperatures would deform impressions made from polyether and polyvinylsiloxane. It is best to follow the manufacturer's instructions and pour the impression in stone before shipment.

Clinical performance of large, all-ceramic CAD\CAM-generated restorations after three years: a pilot study

Article Abstract:

The adhesively luted all-ceramic restorations were found to have successfully repaired large coronal defects after a three-year study. Tooth-colored, all-ceramic computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing(CAD/CAM) generated restorations are an alternative to conventional restorations if large coronal defects need to be treated.
