Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the marginal adaptation of ceramic and composite resin crowns fabricated with computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology using an intraoral digital scanner. Methods: A human mandibular right second molar was prepared for a ceramic crown. The impressions were made using intraoral scanning device and crowns were milled. Tem crowns were fabricated for each group (n=10): GF – Feldspathic Ceramic (Cerec Blocs, Sirona), GL - Lithium Disilicate Ceramic (IPS e.max CAD, Ivoclar), GG - composite resin (Grandio Blocs, VOCO) and GB - composite resin (Brava Block, FGM). The marginal gap was measured for each specimen at 4 points under magnification with a stereomicroscope. All data were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by the Tukey’s test (α=.05). Results: The lowest marginal discrepancy value was observed in GB (60.95 ± 13.64 μm), which was statistically different from the GL (84.22 ± 20.86 μm). However, there was no statistically significant difference between these groups when compared with the other groups, GF (73.26 ±8.19 μm) and GG (68.42 ± 11.31 μm). Conclusion: It can be concluded that the composite resin presented the lowest variance compared to the lithium disilicate glass ceramic, although the marginal gap of all materials tested was within the acceptable clinical limit (120 μm).
Objetivo: avaliar a influência da espessura do preparo na adaptação marginal de coroas de porcelana feldspática fabricadas pela tecnologia CAD/CAM e identificar a(s) face(s) que apresenta(m) maior discrepância marginal em cada preparo. Metodologia: Dois molares inferiores humanos foram preparados para coroa total: preparo convencional (PC) – chanfro: 1,0 mm, redução oclusal: 2 mm e axial: 1,5 mm; preparo ultrafino (PUF) – chanfro arredondado: 0,5 mm, redução oclusal e axial: 0,7 mm. Os preparos foram escaneados com escâner intraoral e os dados processados no software Cerec InLab foram transmitidos à fresadora. Sobre os dois tipos de preparo foram confeccionadas coroas de porcelana feldspática (Cerec Blocs) (n=10). As coroas foram adaptadas ao dente preparado e analisadas em lupa estereoscópica com aumento de 45x. As imagens obtidas foram transferidas para o programa Corel Draw para leitura da discrepância marginal. O teste estatístico utilizado para avaliar os tipos de preparo foi t de Student e para as faces foram ANOVA e Bonferroni (p<0.05). Resultados: Os menores valores de discrepância marginal foram encontrados no grupo PC (73,25 ± 18,19) que diferiu estatisticamente do grupo PUF (110,40 ± 28,64). As faces mesiais de ambos os grupos apresentaram maiores valores de discrepância marginal (PC=132,01 ± 50,93 e PUF=173,01 ± 73,63), respectivamente, com diferença estatisticamente significante em relação às demais faces. Conclusão: As coroas de porcelana feldspática com PC apresentaram melhor adaptação marginal comparadas às coroas com PUF. As faces dentárias apresentaram valores de discrepância marginal dentro do parâmetro utilizado (≤120 μm), exceto a face mesial, em ambos os preparos.
