The original apparatus implemented in the study. From left to right following the arrows: A cemented experimental crown held at the Axial Loading Device (ALD), the slot at the Replica Production Device (RPD) where the cemented crown would be replicated, the acquired negative replica from within the specialized copper tray with the corresponding cemented experimental crown on the right, the negative replica inserted with a plastic plunger in the inner tube of the Sample Intersection Device (SID), and the six negative replica slices on the right, which were the observation units. Finally, each slice was placed on the Sample Observation Base (SOB) for examination under a stereomicroscope
