TL;DR: The morse taper connection showed promising performance with lower stress concentration in the abutment screw, implant platform and cement layers, and all connections showed the same strain pattern.

TL;DR: In this paper, the biomechanical behavior, stress distributions and bone microstrain of fixed partial dentures (FPD) with ceramic abutments supported on monotype zirconia implants, were evaluated.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the marginal discrepancy of electroforming copings, before and after the porcelain application, varying the cervical preparation of the crowns, and concluded that porcelaine application does not influence the marginal fit of copings and therefore the two marginal endings can be used with the electroforming system.

TL;DR: Polished specimens are sensitive to the load profile variation, confirming the effect of surface morphology on the fatigue results, and a rough internal surface impacted deleteriously onThe fatigue strength and reliability of ZLS ceramic.

TL;DR: The seating force has an important effect on the Vertical misfit measurements, once it may considerably narrow the vertical misfit gaps at the abutment-framework interface, thus leading to a misjudgment of the real marginal situation.
