All-ceramic restorations are the foundation of modern restorative aesthetic dentistry. The industry for dental materials now provides a large selection of biomaterials with a range of constantly improving qualities. Although this is undoubtedly advantageous, the vast array of materials may confuse even experienced dentists. Even if recently the demand of digital dentistry in daily dental practice has significantly increased, due to a lack of understanding concerning cementation techniques, which are different for each type of ceramic used, dentists are continuing to be hesitant to utilise these various CAD/CAM materials. This study analysed 58 articles from 2008 to 2025, focusing on narrative, comprehensive, and systematic reviews and in vitro studies on dental dentistry materials. English articles were included, but non-English articles and case reports were excluded. The analysis included articles from all journal categories, ensuring adherence to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The aim of the research is to assess material classifications and properties that guide practices concerning the adhesive cementation of all-ceramic restorations. In order to provide a clear overview of the composition, characteristics, clinical considerations, and current trends of contemporary dental materials, as well as some recommendations for future research in this area that would be relevant to dentists and the scientific community, the authors of the paper were guided by this structure when writing the article content. The key is to ensure the aesthetics, resistance, and long-term clinical success of the treatment plan by providing dental professionals with clear, accurate information and instructions about resin-luting materials and indirect restoration materials.

The study explores the impact of floods, phenomena amplified by climate change and human activities, on the natural and anthropogenic environment, focusing on the analysis of a section of the Cigher River in the Crișul Alb basin in western Romania. The research aims to identify areas vulnerable to flooding under different discharge scenarios, assess the impact on agricultural lands, and propose a reproducible methodology based on the integration of GIS technologies, hydraulic modeling in HEC-RAS, and the use of LiDAR data. The methodology includes hydrological analysis, processing of the Digital Elevation Model (DEM), delineation of geometries, hydraulic simulation for four discharge scenarios (S1–S4), and evaluation of the flood impact on agricultural and non-agricultural lands. Evaluated parameters, such as water velocity and flow section areas, highlighted an increased flood risk under maximum discharge conditions. The results show that scenario S4, with a discharge of 60 m³/s, causes extensive flooding, affecting 871 hectares of land with various uses. The conclusions emphasize the importance of using modern technologies for risk management, protecting vulnerable areas, and reducing economic and ecological losses. The proposed methodology is also applicable to other river basins, representing a useful model for developing sustainable strategies for flood prevention and management.

Modern prosthetic dentistry has been significantly reshaped by adhesive dentistry, CAD/CAM technologies, and advanced ceramic materials, leading to the development of minimally invasive all-ceramic restorative approaches. However, the longevity of the adhesive interface is fundamental to the long-term effectiveness of these restorations. With a focus on bond durability and clinical performance, this narrative review aims to evaluate modern adhesive strategies, tooth preparation requirements, and cementation techniques in all-ceramic minimally invasive restorations. Methods: A narrative review of the literature was performed using Google Scholar, Web of Science, and PubMed/MEDLINE databases. Publications from 2000 to 2026 were analysed. In vitro research, narrative reviews, and systematic reviews related to adhesive systems, resin cements, CAD/CAM materials, and minimally invasive prosthodontic principles were the core subjects of the research. Results: The findings indicate that material selection, surface conditioning techniques, and cementation methods have a significant impact on the clinical effectiveness of all-ceramic restorations. Retention and marginal sealing are greatly enhanced by resin-based adhesive systems. Nevertheless, hydrolytic degradation, procedure sensitivity, and substrate-related factors remain a challenge to the adhesive interface. Advances in CAD/CAM and ultra-conservative designs, like occlusal veneers and partial-coverage restorations, have increased treatment alternatives while ensuring acceptable functional and aesthetic results. Conclusions: Minimally invasive all-ceramic restorations represent a conservative and clinically effective treatment approach in modern prosthodontics. Their long-term performance is primarily dependent on adhesive interface stability and adherence to evidence-based clinical protocols. Continued developments in adhesive materials and ceramic systems are expected to improve bond durability and broaden clinical indications.
