In prosthodontics, conventional methods of fabrication of oral and facial prostheses have
been considered the gold standard for many years. The development of computer‐aided …

Background Every dental ceramic system can experience failure of the veneering porcelain.
However, the increasing popularity of all-ceramic crowns and fixed dental prostheses …

Objectives The first objective of this study was to retrospectively evaluate zirconia-based
restorations (ZBR). The second was to correlate failures with clinical parameters and to …

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effect of framework design modification and veneering
techniques in fatigue reliability and failure modes of veneered Yttria-Stabilized Tetragonal …

Statement of problem: Evidence is limited on the efficacy of zirconia-based fixed dental
prostheses. Objective: To carry out a literature review of the behavior of zirconium oxide …

In last years the use of zirconia in dentistry has become very popular. Unfortunately, the
clinical indications for a dental use of zirconia are not completely clear yet, neither are their …

Background The authors analyzed the in vitro and in vivo performance of lithium disilicate
glass-ceramic (LDGC) restorations and yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystalline (Y …

Despite the predictable longevity of implant prosthesis, there is an ongoing interest to
continue to improve implant prosthodontic treatment and outcomes. One of the …

Objective This in vitro study was designed to investigate the influence of the veneer and
cyclic loading on the failure behavior of lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (LDG) crowns on …

The present investigation hypothesized that the reliability of reduced-thickness monolithic
lithium disilicate crowns is high relative to that of veneered zirconia (Y-TZP) and comparable …
