The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of different polishing techniques on the surface roughness of dental porcelains. Fifty-five cylindirical specimens (15x2 mm) were prepared for each feldspathic (Vita VMK 95, Ceramco III) and low-fusing dental porcelain

The spin-Hamiltonian parameters (g factors g∥, g⊥ and zero-field splittings b2(0), b4(0), b4(4), b6(0), b6(4)) for 4f7 ion Gd3+ at the tetragonal M4+ site of zircon-structure silicates MSiO4 (M=Zr, Hf, Th) are calculated from a diagonalization (of energy matrix) method.

The use of a 30 μm alumina-silica coated particle sand (CoJet™ Sand, 3M Espe), has shown to enhance the adhesion of resin cements to Y-TZP. The question is whether or not sandblasting 30 μm particles does negatively affect the fatigue
