Abstract

The use of all-ceramic crowns offers the potential for improved aesthetic results compared to conventional ceramo-metal crowns. Silica/glass-based all-ceramic crowns are more translucent than alumina- or zirconia-based crowns and therefore have better optical properties. However, they are mechanically weaker and need to be used in conjunction with resin bonding cements. Both these aspects lead to increased clinical and technical demands and as such there are strict guidelines regarding tooth preparation and bonding procedure that need to be followed when using silica/glass-based all-ceramic crowns. The following article describes these preparation, impression and bonding guidelines with the aid of a case presentation.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 08 February 2014.
All research outputs
#13,086,525
of 22,829,683 outputs
Outputs from British Dental Journal
#3,264
of 6,045 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#81,044
of 130,874 outputs
Outputs of similar age from British Dental Journal
#28
of 66 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,829,683 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,045 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.2. This one is in the 45th percentile – i.e., 45% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 130,874 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 66 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 56% of its contemporaries.
