Brief Summary: Introduction Green dentistry is high-technology approach that reduces the environmental impact of dental practices improper disposal of dental materials wastes results in environmental hazards

Aim of the study This studied will be performed o evaluate the effect of repressing of three different types of pressable ceramics Ips Emax press Lisi press and Celtra press with different weight percentages on patient satisfaction mechanical properties microstructural features and composition of these pressable ceramics

Materials Methods

Seventy five N75 pressable ceramic discs will be constructed The samples will be divided to three groups n25 each according to types and composition of pressed and repressed ceramics Group 1 IPS Emax press Group 2 Gc Lisipress Group 3 Celtrapress Each group willbe divided into 5 sub-groups n5 according to the weight percentage of newly pressed and repressed ceramics Subgroup A 100 new ceramics Subgroup B 75 new and 25 repressed ceramic Subgroup C 50 new and 50 repressed ceramics Subgroup D25new and 75 repressed ceramics Subgroup E 100 repressed ceramics Biaxial flexural strength will be measured using universal testing machine X-ray diffraction will be performed to identify the crystalline phases and a scanning electron microscope will be used to describe microstructural features Energy dispersive X-ray analysis will be used to evaluate change in composition Also surface hardness will be evaluated Patient satisfaction plaque cervical caries and marginal discoloration will be evaluated in a follow- up of one year in vivo part
Detailed Description: Methods

This study will be divided into two parts I In vitro and in vivo studies

In vitro study

1 Sample size calculation
2 Sample grouping
3 Fabrication of the ceramic discs
4 Testing procedures
5 Statistical analysis

Sample size estimation and statistical power

ANOVA test was used according to a previous study by Salem et al 2019 15 the mean values for the fracture strength ranged from 819366N to 929724 according to the weight percentage of the newly pressed and repressed ceramics G power statistical power analysis program version 3192 will be used for sample size calculation A total sample size of75 3groups with 5 subgroups 5 sample in each sub group will be sufficient to detect a large effect size of 052 with an actual power 1-β error of 09595 and a significance level αerror 005 5 for two-sided hypothesis test

Sample preparation In this study pressable and repressable ceramic discs will be fabricated Lost wax technique will be used to manufacture disc-shaped ceramic specimens of three types of pressable ceramic

Sample grouping

A total of seventy five N75 pressable ceramic discs will be fabricated The samples will be divided to three groups n25 each according types and composition of pressable ceramics that will be used

Group 1 IPS emax press pressed and repressed n25 Group 2 Gc Lisipress pressed and repressed n25 Group 3 Celtrapress Pressed and repressed n25 Each group will be divided into 5 sub-groups n5 according to the weight percentage of newly pressed and repressed ceramics Subgroup A Samples will be 100 new ceramics Subgroup B Samples will be 75 new and 25 repressed ceramic Subgroup C Samples will be 50 new and 50 repressed ceramics Subgroup D samples will be 25 new and 75 repressed ceramics Subgroup E Samples will be100 repressed ceramics Fabrication of the ceramic discs 3D printed resin specimens will be sprued and invested in a ring system using phosphate bonded investment The ring will be then placed in a burnout furnace Ceramic ingots will be plasticized and pressed in its softened state into the hollow place in the investment ring by means of a plunger After pressing the pressed discs and sprues will be weighed to calculate the needed weight of ceramic needed for fabrication of the samples The sprues will be cutThe ceramic that will be repressed will be placed into the opening at the top surface of the investment mold Ceramic material will be placed in each pressing cycle according to the desired Wt of pressed and repressed ceramics

Laboratory steps

Fabrication of pressed and repressed ceramic discs

1 Construction of resin patterns
2 Spruing of resin patterns
3 Investing of resin patterns
4 Resin elimination
5 Pressing
6 Divesting
7 Finishing and polishing of the discs

Construction of the resin patterns

A digital design of the disc-shaped specimen ten millimeters in diameter and one and half millimeter in thickness will be designed by computer-aided design software The specimen design will be printed by a 3d printer Seventy-five resin disc specimens will be produced

Spruing of resin patterns

3d printed resin patterns will be sprued following the manufacturer instructions

Pressing

1 Ceramic material will placed in each pressing cycle according to the desired Wt of pressed and repressed

Resin elimination

Resin will be eliminated according to manufacturer recommendations the investment ring was placed in the burn out furnace

Divesting

The length of the plunger will be marked on the cold investment ring then The ring will be separated using a separating disc Finishing and polishing of the discs Ceramic discs will be finished according to the manufacturers instructions and polished

Thermo mechanical aging

Ceramic disc specimens will be subjected to thermo-mechanical aging thermocycling and cyclic loading using chewing simulator integrated with thermocycling protocol to simulate a total of 6 months of clinical chewing conditions

Testing procedure

Flexural strength will be measured using universal testing machine Vicker hardness and fracture toughness will be determined by indentation technique

Scanning electron microscope will be used to evaluate microstructure of pressed and repressed ceramics X-ray diffraction will be used to evaluate the crystalline phase Energy dispersive X-ray analysis EDAX will be used to evaluate change in composition of pressed and repressed ceramic

Scanning electron microscope will be used to evaluate microstructure of pressed and repressed ceramics In vivo part II Case presentation for the groups All the groups and sub-groups in the vitro part will be evaluated as a case presentation study

Part I In vivo study

Clinical evaluation

Clinical performance of all crowns of the studied subgroups in terms of marginal discoloration color stability fracture patient satisfaction will be evaluated at base line 1week 3 and 6 months after cementation

Clinical evaluation will be performed according to
Modified United States Health Service USPHS Ryge Criteria at base line 1 week 3 6 and 12 months after cementation
The presence of plaque will be evaluated using the Loe and Silness plaque index
Clinical examination will be performed using a mirror and sharp explorer radiograph and photograph

Patient satisfaction will be evaluated using a questionnaire

The patient satisfaction
