The aim of this article is to comprehensively review the revolution of dental zirconia (Zir),
including its types, properties, applications, and cementation procedures. A comprehensive …

New zirconia compositions with optimized esthetic properties have emerged due to the fast-
growing technology in zirconia manufacturing. However, the large variety of commercial …

Objectives The dental market moves towards high-translucency monolithic zirconia dental
crowns, which are usually placed either with–or without–a thin glaze layer. The …

Objective The aim was to evaluate the optical properties, mechanical properties and aging
stability of yttria-stabilized zirconia with different compositions, highlighting the influence of …

This study characterized the mechanical properties (static and under fatigue), the crystalline
microstructure (monoclinic-m, tetragonal-t and cubic-c phase contents) and the surface …

Zirconia ceramics have found broad applications in a variety of energy and biomedical
applications because of their unusual combination of strength, fracture toughness, ionic …

This review presents a critical survey of all experimental data about the low temperature
degradation of zirconia (often referred to as “aging”) due to the tetragonal-to-monoclinic …

Bioceramics have been widely utilized for orthopaedic applications in which the
biocompatibility and mechanical properties of the materials are vital characteristics to be …

The urge to replace missing teeth dates back to the origin of medicine. Along history, organic
materials, metals, alloys, polymers, glasses, and carbon were used to substitute teeth, but …

High-tech ceramics have always been associated to medical devices: they are used today
