Article Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the marginal and internal fit of permanent crowns fabricated using three different DLP 3D printers and their corresponding permanent resin materials. The fit was quantitatively assessed using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and digital 3D analysis.
Materials And Methods: A premolar tooth was prepared according to conventional ceramic tooth preparation protocols and scanned with an intraoral scanner (TRIOS 5). The resulting standard tessellation language (STL) file was imported into the software for design. A total of 24 crowns were fabricated using three different printer and resin combinations (n = 8): an Asiga printer with Saremco Crowntec permanent resin (Group S), a Denta Fab printer with Power Resin C&B permanent resin (Group C), and a SprintRay printer with Crown permanent resin (Group SP). These crowns were then re-scanned with an intraoral scanner to obtain STL files. Marginal, axial, and occlusal alignment were calculated and compared using 3D analysis software and micro-CT software. As the data were normally distributed, comparisons were made using one-way ANOVA. The significance level was set at p < 0.05.
Results: In the marginal area, Group SP demonstrated significantly superior fit compared to Group S (p = 0.002) and Group C (p = 0.0005). No statistically significant difference was observed between Group S and Group C (p = 0.245). The findings obtained from both micro-CT and 3D superimposition analyses were consistent, confirming the reliability and agreement of the two evaluation methods.
Conclusion: This study demonstrates that crown restorations fabricated using 3D printers exhibit significant variations in fit depending on the type of resin employed. In particular, the resin used in Group SP tended to show improved marginal adaptation compared to Groups S and C, which exhibited comparable results. These findings may offer guidance for clinical decision-making regarding the selection of 3D printing systems and resins for crown fabrication in prosthodontic applications.

One of the common forms of dental injury is anterior crown fractures, which mainly affect teenagers and young adults. Fractures of the coronal portion of the permanent incisors characterize 18-22% of total traumatic injuries to dental hard tissues, of which 96% of them comprise the maxillary incisors. An uncomplicated fracture of the crown is one of the most common types of dental traumatic injury.

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of post-polymerization time and curing device type on the surface roughness, microhardness and color change of 3D printed permanent resin materials.
Materials And Methods: In this study, permanent resin samples with a layer print thickness of 50 μm and dimensions of 10 × 2 mm3 were produced on SLA and DLP printers. The samples were post-polymerized in blue LED and UV LED curing devices for 10, 20, 40 and 60 min.

This report presents a case of a 9-year-old child with a complicated crown-root fracture of the maxillary central incisor, accompanied with a root fracture. The treatment strategy was minimally invasive, focusing on vital pulp preservation, root fracture recovery, and crown restoration. The fractured crown was reattached using resin short posts to enhance retention, resulting in aesthetic and functional restoration of the anterior teeth.

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the differences in shear bond strength, marginal adaptation, and nano-microleakage after aging among snowplow, layered filling, and lining techniques applied to the resin-bonded restoration of defective primary teeth.
Methods: In this study, 51 freshly extracted, crown-intact primary anterior teeth and 30 primary molars were collected. The experimental groups were as follows: layered filling group, lining group, and snowplow group.
