Objective. This study aimed to evaluate lithium disilicate marginal adaption on crowns by scanning techniques (CAD/CAM), before and after crystallization, through confocal microscopy (CM) in vitro analysis. Methods. Sixteen polyurethane replicas were performed from tooth 1.4, of a typodont model, prepared for a full crown. The replicas were divided into two groups, according to the scanning technique: Indirect Technique (Group IND, n=08), where dental stone models were scanned with a laboratory scanner (inEos X5, Sirona Dental Systems) and Direct Technique (Group DIR, n=08), where typodont models were scanned with an intraoral scanner (CEREC BlueCam, Sirona Dental Systems). Then, the lithium disilicate crowns (IPS e.max CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent) were milled (inLab MC XL, Sirona Dental Systems) and adapted to the replicas. Marginal adaptation was evaluated with CM analysis before and after l...

Objetivo. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la adaptación marginal de coronas de disilicato de litio obtenidas mediante técnicas de escaneo (CAD/CAM), antes y después de la cristalización, a través de análisis in vitro con microscopía confocal (MC). Métodos. Fueron confeccionadas 16 réplicas en poliuretano a partir de la pieza 1.4, de modelo typodont, tallada para corona total. Las réplicas fueron divididas en dos grupos, de acuerdo a la técnica de escaneo: Técnica Indirecta (Grupo IND, n=08), donde modelos de yeso fueron escaneados con escáner de laboratorio (inEos X5, Sirona Dental Systems) y Técnica Directa (Grupo DIR, n=08), donde modelos typodont fueron escaneados con escáner intraoral (CEREC BlueCam, Sirona Dental Systems). A seguir, se fresaron (inLab MC XL, Sirona Dental Systems) coronas en disilicato de litio (IPS e.max CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent) y se adaptaron ...
