Streptococcus-mutans and Porphyromonas-gingivalis adhesion to glazed/polished surfaces of CAD/CAM restorations

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Purpose: to five different kinds of modern CAD/CAM restorative materials with different compositions following chairside finishing/polishing and glazing. Materials and methods: test and Tukey post hoc test. Results: to finished/polished surfaces was greater for each of the four ceramics under investigation "Tetric-CAD®, IPS-e.max-CAD®, CELTRA-Duo®, and Vita-Enamic®". Conclusion: , hence prior to final placement of restoration, it is advised to adhere to the minimal glazing criteria. Regardless of the chemical composition of the materials, the surface texture of the tested materials significantly influenced bacterial adhesion.
