    • Retensjon av sementerte protetiske erstatninger 

      Jokstad, Asbjørn; Pettersson, Mattias; Øilo, Marit (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-17)
      Flere faktorer bidrar til å påvirke klinisk holdbarhet på sementerte tannrestaureringer. Fordi preparering av tannvev til en ekstrakoronal restaurering er irreversibel, er det utstrakt forskningsaktivitet for å finne metoder og teknikker for å minimere biologisk skade og utvikle nye biomaterialer som krever mindre avvirkning av tannvev. Derfor blir vi stadig bombardert med nye «bedre» eller «enklere» ...
