The purpose of this study was to perform a quantitative and qualitative evaluation of the biofilms formed on framework alloys in vitro. The biofilms formed by unfiltered fresh human saliva or Streptococcus mutans and/or Candida albicans on commercially pure titanium and gold-copper-platinum demonstrated higher amounts than other alloy and resin samples. In contrast, the silverpalladium-copper-gold showed a significantly decreased level of biofilm formation. Although the adhesion level of Streptococcus mutans on cobalt-chromium was high, that of Candida albicans was less extensive. A T-RFLP analysis and qualitative PCR of the microbes in the biofilms were performed. In a cluster analysis of all T-RFLP profiles, the cobalt-chromium pattern was integrated into one cluster. On qualitative PCR, the existence of microorganisms related to caries, preriodontitis and aspiration pneumonia was observed. Our results showed that the biofilm formation on each framework alloy was different in terms of both the quantity and quality.

Accurate impressions are essential in fabri-cating dental restorations and fixed dental prostheses. During the last decade, digital impression systems have improved substantially. This review discusses the accuracy of digital impression systems for fabrication of dental restorations and fixed dental prostheses. A literature search in PubMed was performed for the period from July 2010 through June 2017. The search keywords were Cerec, digital impression, direct digitalization, indirect digitalization, and intraoral scanner. Only relevant studies are summarized and discussed in this review. In general, the latest systems have considerably reduced the time required for impression making, and the accuracy and marginal fit of digital impression systems have recently improved. Restorations and fixed dental prostheses fabricated with currently available digital impression systems and intraoral scanners exhibit clinically acceptable ranges of marginal gap in both direct and indirect procedures.
