The purpose of this study was to observe the thermal expansion of the inlay waxes at temperature. Inlay pattern wax shows not only a high coefficient of expansion but also a tendency to warp or distort when allowed to stand unrestrained. The thermal expansion of inlay waxes was tested according to the treatment conditions for 10 minutes at $40^{\circ}C$ The thermal expansion of inlay waxes at various temperatures was measured with an electro dial gauge. The results were as fellows: 1. It is shown that the rate of thermal expansion of wax A is 0.2%, wax B is 0.29%, wax C is 0.38%, and wax D is 0.22% at $40^{\circ}C$ 2. It is shown that the coefficient of thermal expansion of wax A is $106{\times}10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$, wax B is $152{\times}10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$, wax C is $199{\times}10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$, and wax D is $116{\times}10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$ at $40^{\circ}C$ 3. The thermal expansion of the inlay waxes at $40^{\circ}C$ was shown to increase in the order of wax C, B, D, A.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the characterization of composite resin inlay surface with silane and non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma treatment. Methods: Composite resin inlay was used as a specimen, which was treated by sandblasting + silane and sandblasting + plasma. The untreated specimens were assigned to the control group. Specimens were analyzed for surface roughness, color change, and chemical composition. Statistical analyses were performed using one-way ANOVA test (p<0.05). Results: The present findings showed that the roughness and color changes of the plasma-treated surface were significantly lower than those of the silane-treated surface. In addition, a change in the chemical composition was observed on the plasma-treated surface. Conclusions: Based on the results, non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma could be a potential tool for the cementation of composite resin inlay.

This study was performed to observe the flow change of the inlay waxes at various temperatures. The flow of inlay waxes was tested according to the treatment conditions, for 10 minutes at 40$^{\circ}C$, 41$^{\circ}C$, 42$^{\circ}C$, 43$^{\circ}C$, 44$^{\circ}C$, and 45$^{\circ}C$ The flow of inlay waxes at various temperatures was measured with an electro dial gauge. The results were as fellows: 1. The flow change of the inlay waxes at various temperatures was shown to increase in the order of wax A, B, D, C. 2. Wax A was close to ADA specification with 3% flow at 40$^{\circ}C$ and 71% flow at 45$^{\circ}C$, but wax B and D did not reach up to ADA specification with 40% flow at 45$^{\circ}C$. 3. Wax C came up with 3% flow at 40$^{\circ}C$ and 7% flow at 45$^{\circ}C$, and it revealed a very low flow change at 5$^{\circ}C$.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the marginal and internal fit of lithium disilicate ceramic inlay produced by heat pressing that inlay pattern made by subtractive manufacturing and additive manufacturing method. Methods: A mandibular lower first molar that mesial occlusal cavity (MO cavity) die was prepared. After fabricating an epoxy resin model using a silicone impression material, epoxy resin die was scanned with a dental model scanner to design an MO cavity inlay. The designed STL pile was used to fabricate wax patterns and resin patterns, and then lithium disilicate ceramic inlays were fabricated using hot-press method. For the measurement of the marginal and internal gap of the lithium disilicate, silicone replica method was applied, and gap was measured through an optical microscope (x 80). Data were tested for significant differences using the Mann-Whitney Utest. Results: The marginal fit was 103.56±9.92㎛ in the MIL-IN group and 81.57±9.33㎛ in the SLA-IN group, with a significant difference found between the two groups (p<0.05). The internal fit was 120.99±17.52㎛ in the MIL-IN group and 99.18±6.65㎛ in the SLA-IN group, with a significant difference found between the two groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: It is clinically more appropriate to apply the additive manufacturing than subtractive manufacturing method in producing lithium disilicate inlay using CAD/CAM system.

Currently with the continuous development of ceramic and cementation materials, CAD-CAM(Computer-aided design/Computer-aided manufacture) restorations are becoming increasingly popular in esthetic dentistry. Preparation design is influenced by the selected restorative material, the fabrication method, and the ability to bond the restoration. For long-lasting CAD/CAM inlay/onlay restoration, clinicians should understand the basic knowledge of CAD/CAM restoration's cavity design to obtain the fracture resistance and proper fitting margin. This article gives an overview of preparation guidelines for CAD/CAM inlay/onlay restorations.

FRC/ceromer system provides the clinician with a durable, flexible, and esthetic alternative to conventional porcelain fused to metal crowns. FRC is the matrix which is silica-coated and embedded in a resin matrix. The ceromer material which is a second generation indirect composite resin contains silanized, microhybrid inorganic fillers embedded in a light-curing organic matrix. FRC/ceromer restoration has a several advantages: better shock absorption, less wear of occluding teeth, translucency, color stability, bonding ability to dental hard tissues, and resiliency. It has versatility of use including inlay, onlay, single crown, and esthetic veneers. With adhesive technique, it can be used for single tooth replacement in forms of inlay adhesion bridge. In single tooth missing case, conventional PFM bridge has been used for esthetic restoration. However, this restoration has several disadvantages such as high cost, potential framework distortion during fabrication, and difficulty in repairing fractures. Inlay adhesion bridge with FRC/ceromer would be a good alternative treatment plan. This article describes a cases restored with Targis/Vectris inlay adhesion bridge. Tooth preparation guide, fabrication procedure, and cementation procedure of this system will be dealt. The strength/weakness of this restoration will be mentioned, also. If it has been used appropriately in carefully selected case, it can satisfy not only dentist's demand of sparing dental hard tissue but also patient's desire of seeking a esthetic restorations with a natural appearance.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to compare the cutting method and the lamination method to investigate whether the CAD data of the proposed inlay shape are machined correctly. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The Mesial-Occlusal shape of the inlay was modeled by changing the stereolithography (STL). Each group used SLS (metal powder) or SLA (photocurable resin) in the additive method, and wax or zirconia in the subtractive method (n=10 per group, total n=40). Three-dimensional (3D) analysis program (Geomagic Control X inspection software; 3D systems) was used for the alignment and analysis. The root mean square (RMS) in the 2D plane state was measured within $50{\mu}m$ radius of eight comparison measuring points (CMP). Differences were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance and post-hoc Tukey's test were used (${\alpha}=.05$). RESULTS. There was a significant difference in RMS only in SLA and SLS of 2D section (P<.05). In CMP mean, CMP 4 ($-5.3{\pm}46.7{\mu}m$) had a value closest to 0, while CMP 6 ($20.1{\pm}42.4{\mu}m$) and CMP 1 ($-89.2{\pm}61.4{\mu}m$) had the greatest positive value and the greatest negative value, respectively. CONCLUSION. Since the errors obtained from the study do not exceed the clinically acceptable values, the lamination method and the cutting method can be used clinically.
