Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess and contrast the effects on the vertical marginal fit of full contour CAD/CAM generated monolithic zirconia crowns pre- and post-cementation of employing chamfer finishing line designs with various occlusal reduction schemes (planar and flat) and cements. Material and Method: Forty sound human maxillary first premolars were selected for this study. Samples will be divided into two main groups of twenty samples in each group according to the occlusal reduction scheme: Group A: chamfer finishing line design with planar occlusal reduction scheme. Group B: chamfer finishing line design with flat occlusal reduction scheme. Each main group will be subsequently separated into two smaller groups based on the kind of cement that was utilized (n=10) Subgroup A1: crowns will be cemented by using resin-modified Glass Ionomer cement (Fuji Plus). Subgroup A2: crowns will be cemented using a Universal adhesive system (Duo Estecem II). Subgroup B1: crowns will be cemented by using Fuji Plus. Subgroup B2: crowns will be cemented using a Duo Estecem II. Result: Marginal gaps were measured at 4 indentations, using a Dino light-stereomicroscope (230X). Paired T-tests and student t-tests analyzed the data. Prior to cementation, subgroup A1 scored the lowest mean of vertical marginal gap values (80.284±23.021), while subgroup B2 scored the highest mean (118.597±9.956); following cementation, subgroup A1 scored the lowest mean of vertical marginal gap values (95.45±17.598), and subgroup B2 scored the highest mean of vertical marginal gap values (134.806 ±8.114). Chamfer finishing line design with a planar occlusal reduction scheme could be a preferable occlusal reduction scheme.
