Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to reproduce and translate clinical presentations in an in vitro set-up and evaluate laboratory outcomes of mechanical properties (flexural strength, fatigue resistance, wear resistance) and link them to the clinical outcomes of the employed materials in the Radboud Tooth Wear Project (RTWP). MATERIALS AND METHODS Four dental resin composites were selected. 30 discs (Ø12.0 mm, 1.2 mm thick) were fabricated for each of Clearfil TM AP-X (AP), Filtek TM Supreme XTE (FS), Estenia TM C&B (ES), and Lava Ultimate (LU). Cyclic loading (200 N, 2 Hz frequency) was applied concentrically to 15 specimens per group with a spherical steatite indenter (r = 3.18 mm) in water in a contact-load-slide-liftoff motion (105 cycles). The wear scar was analysed using profilometry and the volume loss was digitally computed. Finally, all specimens were loaded (fatigued specimens with their worn surface loaded in tension) until fracture in a biaxial flexure apparatus. The differences in volume loss and flexural strength were determined using regression analysis. RESULTS Compared to AP and FS, ES and LU showed a significantly lower volume loss (p < 0.05). Non-fatigued ES specimens had a similar flexural strength compared to nonfatigued AP, while non-fatigued FS and LU specimens had a lower flexural strength (p < 0.001; 95 %CI: -80.0 - 51.8). The fatigue test resulted in a significant decrease of the flexural strength of ES specimens, only (p < 0.001; 95 %CI: -96.1 - -54.6). CLINICAL RELEVANCE These outcomes concur with the outcomes of clinical studies on the longevity of these composites in patients with tooth wear. Therefore, the employed laboratory test seems to have the potential to test materials in a clinically relevant way.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study examined the effect of whitening and abrasive regular dentifrices on the surface characteristics and stain susceptibility of polymer-based CAD-CAM blocks subjected to artificial toothbrushing abrasion (TB). MATERIALS AND METHODS Two resin composite blocks [CeraSmart (CS) and Grandio Blocs (GB)], one polymer-infiltrated ceramic [Vita Enamic (VE)], and one direct resin composite [GrandioSO (RC)] were used to produce 60 specimens. The baseline mass, gloss, roughness, Vickers hardness (Hv), and color were measured after 7 days of water storage. The specimens were then separated into three TB treatment groups (n = 5): water control (C), regular daily dentifrice (R), and whitening dentifrice (W). Measurements were repeated post-TB (20,000 cycles). All specimens were immersed in coffee, and the CIE ΔE00 was measured after 1, 7, and 14 days. Two-way, one-way ANOVA, and Tukey's post hoc tests were performed to determine any significant differences between the materials and TB groups. To determine the stain resistance, repeated measures of ANOVA, one-way ANOVA, and Tukey's post hoc tests were used (α = 0.05). RESULTS The R and W mass changes were minimal (-3.77 to 3.16 g%). W reduced the gloss of all the materials by 12.6%-65%. All materials in W were slightly rougher (Ra, 0.107-0.144 μm) than those in R (Ra, 0.049-0.072 μm). The ΔE00 ranged from 0.6 to 1.6 in W and 0.4 to 1.4 in R. VE was the hardest material at baseline (Hv = 362), whereas brushing and staining lowered Hv in all TB groups (282.8-300.6). After brushing in W, VE, and RC were more susceptible to coffee stains than were CS and GB. CONCLUSIONS The whitening dentifrice roughened CAD-CAM specimens, reducing gloss, yet lightened some materials. Polymer-infiltrated ceramic and direct resin composite specimens brushed with abrasive regular or whitening dentifrice resulted in more intense staining than the CAD-CAM resin composites.

Sci Rep 2024; 14:17885. [PMID: 39095406 PMCID: PMC11297336 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-68873-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/29/2024] [Indexed: 08/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Dental materials are challenged by wear processes in the oral environment and should be evaluated in laboratory tests prior to clinical use. Many laboratory wear-testing devices are high-cost investments and not available for cross-centre comparisons. The 'Rub&Roll' wear machine enables controlled application of force, chemical and mechanical loading, but the initial design was not able to test against rigid antagonist materials. The current study aimed to probe the sensitivity of a new 'Rub&Roll' set-up by evaluating the effect of force and test solution parameters (deionized water; water + abrasive medium; acid + abrasive medium) on the wear behaviour of direct and indirect dental resin-based composites (RBCs) compared with human molars against 3D-printed rod antagonists. Molars exhibited greater height loss than RBCs in all test groups, with the largest differences recorded with acidic solutions. Direct RBCs showed significantly greater wear than indirect RBCs in the groups containing abrasive media. The acidic + abrasive medium did not result in increased wear of RBC materials. The developed method using the 'Rub&Roll' wear machine in the current investigation has provided a sensitive wear test method to allow initial screening of resin-based composite materials compared with extracted human molars under the influence of different mechanical and erosive challenges.

The Impact of Repeated Steam Sterilization Cycles on the Efficacy of Chairside Adjustment Kits for Polishing Monolithic Multi-Layered Zirconia Dental Restoration Material. Med Sci Monit 2024; 30:e944502. [PMID: 38857196 PMCID: PMC11177719 DOI: 10.12659/msm.944502] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 06/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Before insertion, chairside adjustment kits are heat sterilized for positioning and polishing dental restorations. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of 2 steam sterilization cycles on the efficacy of polishing highly translucent monolithic zirconia (HTMLZ) dental restoration material. MATERIAL AND METHODS 100 HTMLZ disc-shaped specimens were adjusted (grinding, finishing, polishing) with EVE Diacera kit. Two steam sterilization techniques [standard (Gp S), immediate/flash (Gp (F)] of CAK were further subgrouped based on number of sterilization cycles [cycle 1 (control), cycle 5, 10, 15, and 20 (experimental)] (n=10 each). Each subgroup accordingly was evaluated for average surface roughness (Ra) and root mean square roughness (Rq) using a profilometer. Mean and standard deviation of 5 subgroups were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA/post hoc Tukey's test. Scanning electron microscopy complemented Ra, Rq measurements. Statistical differences of P≤0.05 were considered significant. RESULTS HTMLZ specimens in both groups showed increased (Ra/Rq) values after repeated sterilization of EVE Diacera kit, with Gp F showing lesser increase than Gp S (20 cycles). Gp F at 10 cycles and Gp S at 15 cycles showed clinically unacceptable roughness threshold (0.25 μm). Differences between subgroups for Ra and Rq values were significant (P≤0.05) with less differences within groups observed in early cycles (1, 10). Results validate the manufacturer's recommendations of using flash sterilization/10 cycles for EVE Diacera kit. CONCLUSIONS Repeated sterilization reduces efficacy of chairside adjustment kit to produce smooth surfaces on HTMLZ. This study recommends flash sterilization to a maximum of 10 times to get the clinically acceptable results of Ra and Rq.

Laborie M, Naveau A, Menard A. CAD-CAM resin-ceramic material wear: A systematic review. J Prosthet Dent 2024; 131:812-818. [PMID: 35459543 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2022.01.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2021] [Revised: 01/24/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The increasing use of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) systems has led to the development of resin-ceramic materials that meet the requirements of minimally invasive dentistry, including the resin nanoceramic (RNC) and polymer-infiltrated ceramic network (PICN). The wear characteristics of these materials are unclear. PURPOSE The purpose of this systematic review was to compare the wear resistance of resin-ceramic materials when compared with one another or with lithium disilicate glass-ceramics. MATERIAL AND METHODS The PubMed, Scopus, and DOSS search engines were used to identify articles published between 2013 and 2021. Two independent researchers conducted the systematic review by following the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and by following a combination of keywords. RESULTS Of a total of 310 articles, 26 were selected, including only 1 clinical study. Among these, 15 compared resin-ceramic materials with each other, while 11 compared resin-ceramic materials with lithium disilicate ceramics. Two types of wear were used to compare the materials: attrition and abrasion. The most commonly studied materials were 2 RNCs (Lava Ultimate and Cerasmart), 1 PICN (Vita Enamic), and 1 ceramic (IPS e.max CAD). Among the resin-ceramic materials, the PICN (Vita Enamic) showed less wear than the RNCs. Of the RNCs, Cerasmart had less attrition wear and less wear of the opposing teeth. CONCLUSIONS Lithium disilicate glass-ceramics have a higher wear resistance than resin-ceramic materials, but they cause more wear of the opposing teeth.

Abstract
Ceramic partial laminate veneers represent a conservative option for the correction of morphological abnormalities, diastemas, and fractured anterior teeth, with minimal or no tooth preparation. The present clinical report describes the use of a partial laminate veneer to correct the shape of a maxillary right central incisor to match the restoration of the more damaged adjacent tooth. The failure of the partial laminate veneer after only 18 months was analyzed using a systematic fractographic approach, identifying critical considerations that should be addressed when providing this type of restoration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This in vitro study assessed the wear behavior of different CAD-CAM blocks and the abrasion of the enamel antagonist against these materials. METHODS 64 disk-shaped specimens were prepared from 8 different CAD/CAM blocks as follow: one lithium disilicate glass ceramics block "IPS Emax CAD" as control group, two zirconia reinforced lithium silicate "Vita Suprinity & Celtra DUO," one interpenetrating network ceramic block "Vita Enamic," Three resin-based block composites "Lava Ultimate, Cerasmart & Brilliant-crios" as well as one hybrid nanoceramic "Shofu block HC". All specimens were mounted against canine and tested for two body wear analysis using a chewing simulating loading machine (100,000 cycles, 50 N, 5/55 °C). The amount of wear loss was measured for each specimen using a digital precise scale. Wear area before and after the chewing simulation were evaluated using an optical profilometer. Data analysed using one-way ANOVA test followed by Tukey's post hoc. RESULTS The results showed a significantly higher wear loss in resin matrix ceramics in comparison to glass ceramics. However, for tooth wear glass ceramics had significantly higher value than hybrid ceramics. CONCLUSIONS Resin based CAD/CAM Blocks gives a superior result when evaluating the wear behavior and its effect on the opposing tooth surface.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim was to assess how incorporating a short-fiber composite (SFC) core would affect the fracture behavior of direct and indirect overlays. Furthermore, to examine the relationship between the thickness ratio of SFC core to particulate-filled composite (PFC) veneering and the fracture-behavior of bilayered-structured restorations. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 120 molars were used to create MOD cavities, with palatal cusps removed. Four different groups of direct overlays were then made (n = 15/group), all of which featured a SFC core (everX Flow) with varying thicknesses (0, 1, 4, and 5 mm), as well as a surface layer of PFC (G-aenial Posterior), with the overall thickness of the bilayered-structured restoration set at 5 mm. Additionally, four groups of CAD/CAM restorations were created (Cerasmart 270 and Initial LiSi Block), with or without 2 mm of SFC core reinforcement. Following the fabrication of these restorations, cyclic fatigue aging was carried out for a total of 500,000 cycles, with an applied maximum load (Fmax) of 150 N. Subsequently, each restoration underwent quasi-static loading until fracture. The fracture mode was subsequently evaluated using optical microscopy and SEM. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences (p > 0.05) observed in the fracture resistance of indirect overlays reinforced with a 2-mm SFC core compared to those made solely from restorative materials. Direct overlays constructed using plain SFC or with a 4-mm layer thickness of SFC core exhibited significantly higher fracture resistance values (2674 ± 465 and 2537 ± 561 N) (p < 0.05) when compared to all other groups tested, according to the statistical analysis ANOVA. CONCLUSIONS The most effective method for restoring large MOD cavities was found to be direct restoration using SFC either alone or as a bulk core in combination with PFC composite. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The use of SFC as bulk reinforcing base will significantly improve the loading performance of directly layered restorations.

Abstract
Lithium disilicate (LDS) glass ceramics are among the most common biomaterials in conservative dentistry and prosthodontics, and their wear behavior is of paramount clinical interest. An innovative in vitro model is presented, which employs CAD/CAM technology to simulate the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. The model aims to evaluate the effect of the abutment rigidity on the wear resistance of the LDS glass ceramic. Two experimental groups (LDS restorations supported by dental implants, named LDS-on-Implant, or by hybrid ceramic tooth replicas with artificial periodontal ligament, named LDS-on-Tooth-Replica) and a control group (LDS-Cylinders) were compared. Fifteen samples (n = 15) were fabricated for each group and subjected to testing, with LDS antagonistic cusps opposing them over 120,000 cycles using a dual axis chewing simulator. Wear resistance was analyzed by measuring the vertical wear depth (mm) and the volume loss (mm3) on each LDS sample, as well as the linear antagonist wear (mm) on LDS cusps. Mean values were calculated for LDS-Cylinders (0.186 mm, 0.322 mm3, 0.220 mm, respectively), LDS-on-Implant (0.128 mm, 0.166 mm3, 0.199 mm, respectively), and LDS-on-Tooth-Replica (0.098 mm, 0.107 mm3, 0.172 mm, respectively) and compared using one-way-ANOVA and Tukey's tests. The level of significance was set at 0.05 in all tests. Wear facets were inspected under a scanning electron microscope. Data analysis revealed that abutment rigidity was able to significantly affect the wear pattern of LDS, which seems to be more intense on rigid implant-abutment supports compared to resilient teeth replicas with artificial periodontal ligament.

Lin J, Cai P, Zhuo Y, Lin L, Zheng Z. Effect of abutment design on fracture resistance of resin-matrix ceramic crowns for dental implant restoration: an in vitro study. BMC Oral Health 2023; 23:410. [PMID: 37344826 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-03100-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2023] [Indexed: 06/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance and fracture resistance of different resin-matrix ceramic materials for use in implant-supported single crowns with respect to the abutment design (crown thickness: 1 mm, 2 and 3 mm). METHODS Forty-eight abutments and crowns were fabricated on implants in the right lower first molar. Two resin-matrix ceramic materials for dental crowns were selected for study: (1) a glass-ceramic in a resin interpenetrating matrix (Vita Enamic, Vita, Germany) and (2) a resin-based composite with nanoparticle ceramic filler (Lava Ultimate, 3 M ESPE, USA). Three types of abutments were designed: 1 mm thick crown + custom titanium abutment, 2 mm thick crown + custom titanium abutment and 3 mm thick crown + prefabricated titanium abutment. The experiment was divided into 6 groups (n = 8) according to the crown materials and abutment designs. After 10,000 thermocycles, fracture resistance was measured using a universal testing machine. The statistical significance of differences between various groups were analysed with ANOVA followed by a post hoc Tukey's honestly significant difference test. The surfaces of the fractured specimens were examined with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). RESULTS Two-way ANOVA revealed that the abutment design (F = 28.44, P = 1.52 × 10- 8<0.001) and the crown materials (F = 4.37, P = 0.043 < 0.05) had a significant effect on the fracture resistance of implant crown restoration. The Lava Ultimate-2 mm group showed the highest fracture resistance of 2222.74 ± 320.36 N, and the Vita Enamic-3 mm group showed the lowest fracture resistance of 1204.96 ± 130.50 N. Most of the 1 and 2 mm groups had partial crown fractures that could be repaired directly with resin, while the 3 mm group had longitudinal fracture of the crown, and the crowns were detached from the abutments. CONCLUSION Based on the in vitro data of this study, the fracture resistance of the 2 mm thick resin-matrix ceramic crown design was higher than that of the 1 and 3 mm groups. The 2 mm thick resin-matrix ceramic crown and personalized abutment are an option to replace zirconia for implant crown restoration.

J Adv Prosthodont 2023; 15:136-144. [PMID: 37441719 PMCID: PMC10333098 DOI: 10.4047/jap.2023.15.3.136] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 06/05/2023] [Accepted: 06/20/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The study objective was to evaluate the influence of the type of resin cement on the flexural strength and load to fracture of two chairside CAD-CAM materials after aging. MATERIALS AND METHODS A polymer-infiltrated ceramic network (PICN) and a nanoceramic resin (RNC) were used to produce the specimens. Two types of dual-cure resin cements, a self-adhesive and a universal, were investigated. Bilayer specimens were produced (n = 10) and aged for 6 months in a humid environment before the biaxial flexural strength test (σf). Bonded specimens were subjected to a mechanical aging protocol (50 N, 2 Hz, 37℃ water, 500,000 cycles) before the compressive load test (Lf). σf and Lf data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA and Tukey tests (α = .05). Chi-square test was used to analyze the relationship between failure mode and experimental group (α = .05). RESULTS The type of resin cement and the interaction between factors had no effect on the σf and Lf of the specimens, while the type of restorative material was significant. RNC had higher σf and Lf than PICN. There was a significant association among the type of cracks identified for specimens tested in Lf and the restorative material. CONCLUSION The type of resin cement had no effect on the flexural strength and load to fracture of the two investigated CAD-CAM chairside materials after aging.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim was to investigate the two-body wear at the marginal area between direct filling composites and substrate of CAD/CAM composites or enamel. MATERIALS AND METHODS Flat specimens were prepared from CAD/CAM composites (CERASMART 270 and SFRC CAD) and bovine enamel. A box-shaped cavity cut into CAD/CAM composites and enamel surfaces was made. The prepared cavity in CAD/CAM composites was treated with a primer, while in enamel, the cavity was treated with an adhesive. Three conventional composites (Universal Injectable, G-aenial A'Chord, and Filtek Bulk Fill) and one short fiber composite (everX Flow) were placed and cured in the prepared cavities. A two-body wear test was conducted with 15,000 chewing cycles using a dual-axis chewing simulator. The specimens (n = 5/per group) were positioned to produce wear (load = 20 N) across the marginal area between filling composites and substrates. The wear depth was analyzed using a 3D optical profilometer. SEM was used to evaluate the wear behavior and margins between the filling and substrate materials. RESULTS All composites used displayed different wear behavior (20-39 µm) (p < 0.05). The highest wear values were recorded for A'Chord and Filtek, while the lowest values were for Injectable and CERASMART 270. The data analysis showed that the wear behavior of substrate materials depends on the filling materials used at margins (p < 0.05). The marginal breakdown was seen only between bovine enamel and filling composites. CONCLUSIONS The use of the two-body wear simulation method revealed important information about the behavior of the filling composites at the marginal area with CAD/CAM composites or bovine enamel substrates. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The marginal breakdown related to the material combination at the bonding region.

A brief review on fatigue test of ceramic and some related matters in Dentistry. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2023; 138:105607. [PMID: 36549251 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2022.105607] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2022] [Revised: 11/28/2022] [Accepted: 12/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
The characteristics of dental ceramics have been extensively studied over the years to provide highly qualified materials for use in prosthetic restorations. The ability to adhere to dental substrates, outstanding aesthetics (translucency, color, and substrate masking ability) and improved mechanical properties provide these materials with optical features and high strength to withstand masticatory stimuli. Different classifications are adopted, and it is generally considered that glass-ceramics have better optical characteristics due to the high glass content, and polycrystalline ceramics have superior strength favored by their densified and organized crystals, hampering crack growth. This knowledge was largely built-up during years of scientific research through different testing methodologies, but mainly employing static loads. It is important to not only take into account the intensity of loads that these materials will be exposed to, but also the effect of the intermittence of cyclic load application leading to mechanical fatigue and the influence of factors related to the crack origin and their propagation under this condition. Furthermore, the bonding surface of ceramic restorations requires surface treatments that improve the bond strength to luting agents; however, these treatments require caution because of their potential to produce defects and affect the structural behavior. Moreover, ceramic restorations often require internal adjustments for proper seating or external adjustments for fitting the occlusal contact with the antagonist. In this sense, finishing/polishing protocols may alter the defect population, as luting agents may also interact by filling in the superficial defects on the restoration intaglio surface. Thus, the balance among all these factors will define the performance of a restorative setup, as well as the posterior exposure to the humid environment and the masticatory stimuli (cyclical loading), which may favor developing slow and subcritical growth of cracks in ceramic materials and the degradation of the bond interface. Therefore, it is essential that the concepts which explain the fatigue mechanism are understood, as well as the crack propagation and failure patterns of restorative ceramic materials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the impact-sliding wear of different CAD/CAM resin-ceramic materials and tooth enamel, and explore the corresponding wear damage mechanism. METHODS Human tooth enamel (EN), Vita ENAMIC (Vita, VE), Lava Ultimate (3 M, LU), and GC CERASMART (GC, CS) were used in this study. The hardness, elastic modulus, and roughness values of the samples were measured. Further, impact-sliding wear tests were performed in a ball-on-flat configuration with spherical zirconia antagonists and the coefficients of friction (CoF) were recorded simultaneously. Additionally, a white light interferometer was used to determine the volume losses and scanning electron microscopy was used to observe the wear morphology of the wear scars and the damage feature in the vertical sections to clarify the damage mechanism during the impact-sliding wear test. RESULTS EN exhibited the highest elastic modulus and CoF, followed by VE, LU, and CS. The hardness and roughness of EN and VE were similar and were higher than those of LU and CS. Throughout the wear tests, VE exhibited the highest volume loss, whereas CS exhibited the lowest. The wear damage characteristics of VE were similar to those of EN, displaying brittle fractures of inorganic substances and plastic deformation of organic substances in the impact part, exhibiting plough marks in the sliding parts. In the case of LU and CS, the entire wear areas displayed plastic deformation of the resin matrix, exfoliation of the filler particles, and plough marks. SIGNIFICANCE Enamel and polymer-infiltrated ceramic network materials exhibit similar wear damage modes. Additionally, the high-density nanocomposite resin material is the most resistant to impact-sliding wear from a tribological perspective.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The background and clinical understanding of the properties of currently available indirect restorative systems and fabrication methods is, along with manufacturer and evidence-based literature, an important starting point to guide the clinical selection of materials for tooth and/or implant supported reconstructions. Therefore, this review explores most indirect restorative systems available in the market, especially all-ceramic, along with aspects of manufacturing process, clinical survival rates, and esthetic outcomes. OVERVIEW Progressive incorporation of new technologies in the dental field and advancements in materials science have enabled the development/improvement of indirect restorative systems and treatment concepts in oral rehabilitation, resulting in reliable and predictable workflows and successful esthetic and functional outcomes. Indirect restorative systems have evolved from metal ceramics and polymers to glass ceramics, polycrystalline ceramics, and resin-matrix ceramics, aiming to improve not only biological and mechanical properties, but especially the optical properties and esthetic quality of the reconstructions, in attempt to mimic natural teeth. CONCLUSIONS Based on several clinical research, materials, and patient-related parameters, a decision tree for the selection of indirect restorative materials was suggested to guide clinicians in the rehabilitation process. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The pace of materials development is faster than that of clinical research aimed to support their use. Since no single material provides an ideal solution to every case, professionals must continuously seek information from well designed, long-term clinical trials in order to incorporate or not new materials and technological advancements.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The ceramic 5-mol% yttria-stabilized zirconia (5Y-ZP) has been developed for dental use in the esthetic zone with greater translucency than 3-mol% yttria-stabilized zirconia (3Y-ZP). However, studies on the wear behavior of 5Y-ZP zirconia against clinically relevant antagonist materials are lacking. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the wear behavior of 5Y-ZP zirconia against the antagonists 5Y-ZP zirconia, lithium disilicate, palladium alloy, and human enamel. MATERIALS AND METHODS Flat specimens (n=8) were fabricated from 5Y-ZP zirconia, lithium disilicate, palladium alloy, and human central incisor enamel. A custom wear-simulating device with a sliding pin-on-plate configuration was used for a total of 120 000 wear cycles at 1.6-Hz frequency under a 49-N vertical load while submerged in distilled water at room temperature. The wear volume and maximum wear depth of flat specimens were evaluated with a 3D profilometer. Scanning electron microscopy was used to analyze the characteristics of the worn surfaces. RESULTS After wear simulation, the 5Y-ZP zirconia and palladium-silver alloy specimens exhibited the least amount of material loss, both in terms of maximum wear depth and wear volume (0.079 ±0.042 μm, 0.001 ±0.001 mm3 and 0.637 ±0.307 μm, 0.001 ±0.000 mm3, respectively). This was followed by human enamel (6.034 ±1.086 μm, 0.009 ±0.001 mm3) and by lithium disilicate, which showed excessive material loss (38.342 ±2.569 μm, 0.213 ±0.024 mm3). Scanning electron microscopy revealed variations in wear mechanisms among the materials. CONCLUSIONS The 5Y-ZP zirconia and palladium-silver alloy exhibited the lowest wear, followed by human enamel and lithium disilicate. Slight grain dislodgement was displayed on worn 5Y-ZP surfaces, while more apparent grain dislodgement and wear grooves were found on lithium disilicate. Plastic deformation of worn palladium-silver alloy accumulated at the end of wear track. Cracks were detected in the human enamel specimens.

Abstract
Porcelains and glass-ceramics have been used to produce CAD-milled veneers and crowns for zirconia copings and implant-abutments. This study evaluated the bondstrength of a polymer-infiltrated-ceramic-network to zirconia using two adhesive cement systems: Panavia 21 and Multilink Automix. Lithium disilicate and feldspathic porcelain were also tested as reference CAD-On materials. Long beams (3x6x40 mm³) of zirconia and short beams (3x6x15 mm³) of the CAD-On materials were prepared. Zirconia and each CAD-On material were bonded in a crossbeam arrangement and subjected to a modified tensile bond-strength test. Half of the samples in each group (n=10) were tested 5 days after bonding (baseline) and the remaining (n=10) underwent aging (50,000 thermocycles at 5°C and 55°C) prior to bond-strength testing. The effects of material, cement, and aging on the tensile bond-strength were tested using a three-way ANOVA. The reference lithium disilicate/Multilink system showed no significant differences in bond strength compared to polymer-infiltrated-ceramic-network and porcelain. The long-term retention of polymer-infiltrated-ceramic-network was not statistically different compared to the baseline values and the two reference materials. With comparable bond strength between all materials, polymer-infiltrated-ceramic-network is the favorable choice for CAD-On to zirconia copings and implant-abutments due to its superior resistance to fatigue fracture relative to porcelain.

Abstract
Background The recent introduction of CAD/CAM technology has been strongly impacting the workflow in dental clinics and labs. Among the used CAD/CAM materials, resin composite CAD/CAM blocks offer several advantages. The aim of this study was to evaluate the physico-mechanical properties and bacterial adhesion of a recently introduced nanoceramic hybrid material (Grandio Blocs) comparing it to a nanoceramic CAD/CAM material (Lava Ultimate). Material and Methods A total of 82 specimens were prepared; 41 specimens from each material. For flexural strength testing, bar shaped specimens were sectioned from each material and flexural strength was evaluated using a three point bending test. For surface hardness, specimens with 2 mm thickness were prepared, polished and tested using Vickers micro-hardness tester. For wear evaluation, specimens were tested in a block on ring tribometer and the amount of weight loss was determined. A stylus profilometer was used to evaluate the surface roughness of disc shaped specimens in three directions. For the bacterial adhesion, the same specimens from the roughness test were used to evaluate the adhesion of Streptococcus mutans to the surface of each material after incubation for 24 hours. The correlation between surface roughness and bacterial adhesion was also investigated. Results The nano-ceramic hybrid CAD/CAM material exhibited significantly higher flexural strength and surface hardness than the nano-ceramic CAD/CAM material. It also showed significantly lower surface roughness and surface bacterial adhesion and lower wear that was not significantly different. A positive correlation was found between surface roughness and bacterial adhesion of both materials. Conclusions The nano-ceramic hybrid CAD/CAM material showed better physico-mechanical properties compared to the nano-ceramic CAD/CAM material which could be attributed to the use of nanohybrid filler system and an enhanced resin matrix structure. Key words:CAD/CAM blocks, nano-ceramic hybrid, flexural strength, wear, surface hardness, surface roughness, bacterial adhesion.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate two-body wear (2BW) and three-body wear (3BW) of different CAD/CAM and direct restorative materials against zirconia using a dual-axis chewing simulator and an ACTA wear machine. METHODS 3 CAD-CAM resin-based composite or polymer infiltrated ceramic network blocs, 1 lithium disilicate CAD-CAM ceramic (LS2), 3 direct resin composites, amalgam and bovine enamel were tested. For 2BW, 8 flat specimens per material were produced, grinded, polished, stored wet (37 °C, 28d) and tested (49 N, 37 °C, 1,200,000 cycles) against zirconia. For 3BW, specimens (n = 10) were stored accordingly, and tested against a zirconia antagonist wheel (3Y-TZP, d = 20 mm, h = 6 mm; 200,000 cycles, F = 15 N, f = 1 Hz, 15% slip) in millet seed suspension. Wear resistance was analysed in a 3D optical non-contact profilometer, measuring vertical wear depth and volume loss for 2BW and mean wear depth and roughness (Ra) for 3BW. Vickers hardness (15 s, HV2) was measured. Statistical analysis was performed using non-parametric tests (Mann-Whitney-U test, p < 0.05). RESULTS 2BW and 3BW have a different impact on material surfaces. Similar wear resistance was observed for direct and indirect resin based materials with analogous filler configurations in both methods. Bovine enamel exhibited the best wear resistance in 2BW, but the least wear resistance in 3BW against zirconia. Regarding 2BW, a direct/indirect composite material pair of the same manufacturer showed the significantly highest mean volume losses (2.72/2.85 mm³), followed by LS2 (1.41 mm³). LS2 presented the best wear resistance in 3BW (mean wear depth 2.85 µm), combined with the highest mean Vickers hardness (598 MPa). No linear correlation was found between Vickers hardness and both wear testing procedures. The zirconia antagonists showed no recordable signs of wear. SIGNIFICANCE Dental restorative materials behave differently in 2BW and 3BW laboratory testing. Vickers hardness testing alone cannot hold for a correlation with wear behavior of materials. Micromorphological investigation of material composition can reveal insights in wear mechanisms related to variations in filler technologies.

Wear Behavior of Different Generations of Zirconia: Present Literature. Int J Dent 2022; 2022:9341616. [PMID: 35295406 PMCID: PMC8920625 DOI: 10.1155/2022/9341616] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2021] [Revised: 01/16/2022] [Accepted: 02/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective. The wear behavior of the novel zirconia generation is less well understood and may be affected by compositional modifications compared to the conventional zirconia. Materials and Methods. Combinations of keywords such as “zirconia,” “high translucent,” and “wear” were searched in PubMed and Google Scholar databases up to May 2021. The total of 23 relevant articles was selected according to inclusion criteria. Results. Reports show comparable wear resistance of translucent zirconia to the conventional zirconia despite an increased cubic phase content and lower mean flexural strength. A meticulously polished surface creates the lowest surface roughness, producing favorable zirconia wear resistance and antagonist wear compared to a glazed surface. In comparison to other ceramic materials, zirconia produces the least wear on an enamel antagonist and almost undetectable wear when opposed by zirconia. Wear when paired against resin materials yields a favorable outcome, whereas wear behavior against a metal antagonist varies with the surface hardness of the metal. Conclusions. All zirconia generations are considered wear-friendly to all types of antagonists. Nonetheless, comparative studies on antagonist wear opposing zirconia of different compositions are still limited and further investigation is required.

Friction and wear behavior of chairside CAD-CAM materials against different types of antagonists: An in vitro study. J Prosthet Dent 2021; 128:803-813. [PMID: 34823868 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2021.09.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2021] [Revised: 09/24/2021] [Accepted: 09/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Studies on the friction and wear behavior of recently introduced chairside computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacture (CAD-CAM) restorative materials are lacking. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the wear behavior of chairside CAD-CAM materials against different types of antagonists (human tooth enamel, composite resin, and feldspathic porcelain). MATERIAL AND METHODS Specimens (14×14×2 mm) of different CAD-CAM materials (Brilliant Crios, Lava Ultimate, Vita Enamic, Vita Suprinity) were obtained by using a low-speed precision cutter (n=10). Wear tests were performed with a 20-N load, 2.5-mm/s sliding speed, 1-mm sliding distance, and 1500 cycles via a tribometer according to ASTM-G133. The coefficient of friction (CoF) of the material pairs was measured and recorded by using a special software program. Surface roughness (Ra), maximum wear depth, and mean maximum wear depth were measured with a profilometer, and values were analyzed by using 2-way ANOVA and the Bonferroni correction. Vickers hardness of CAD-CAM specimens was determined with a microhardness tester. Microhardness values were analyzed by using 1-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc tests. Worn surfaces were observed by scanning electron microscopy and a 3D noncontact profilometer to determine the wear pattern and primary wear mechanisms. RESULTS Significant differences were found in the interactions between CAD-CAM materials and different types of antagonists (P<.001) for maximum wear depth, mean maximum wear depth, CoF, and Ra values. CONCLUSIONS Vita Suprinity exhibited superior wear resistance and Ra against all antagonists compared with other CAD-CAM materials. However, Vita Suprinity increased the destructive effects on antagonists. The safety of CAD-CAM materials is best determined when the wear behavior of materials and their effect on the antagonist are evaluated together.

Abstract
Little information is available about enamel wear caused by zirconia brackets, an inadvertent side effect of orthodontic treatment. The purpose of this study was to examine potential enamel damage induced by contact with zirconia brackets. Sliding and impact wear simulations were performed using bovine enamel specimens positioned at a 25° slant to a zirconium ball to determine wear behaviour. Different chewing patterns, tapping and grinding, were simulated. Specimens were profiled using confocal laser scanning microscopy, and the mean maximum depth and surface roughness were measured. Scanning electron microscopy was also performed. The mean maximum depth of wear values differed according to the number of mastication cycles, with a higher number of cycles producing higher depths of wear. The facet wear depth was significantly greater with the tapping pattern than with the grinding pattern. Scanning electron microscopic observation of the wear facets revealed that surface textures at the edges were rougher than those at the centre of all facets. The results of this study indicated that enamel wear was induced by contact with zirconia brackets during the early period of mastication, and that the patterns and number of cycles of mastication affected the wear progression of enamel.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To characterize the biomechanical performance of fiber-reinforced composite 5-unit implant-supported fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) receiving individually milled crowns by insilico and fatigue analyses. METHODS Eighteen implant-supported five-unit fiber-reinforced composite frameworks with an individually prepared abutment design were fabricated, and ninety resin-matrix ceramic crowns were milled to fit each abutment. FDPs were subjected to step-stress accelerated-life testing with load delivered at the center of the pontic and at 2nd molar and 1st premolar until failure. The reliability of the prostheses combining all loaded data and of each loaded tooth was estimated for a mission of 50,000 cycles at 300, 600 and 900 N. Weibull parameters were calculated and plotted. Fractographic and finite element analysis were performed. RESULTS Fatigue analysis demonstrated high probability of survival at 300 N, with no significant differences when the set load was increased to 600 and 900 N. 1st and 2nd molar dataset showed high reliability at 300 N, which remained high for the higher load missions; whereas 1st premolar dataset showed a significant decrease when the reliability at 300 N was compared to higher load missions. The characteristic-strength of the combined dataset was 1252 N, with 1st molar dataset presenting higher values relative to 2nd molar and 1st premolar, both significantly different. Failure modes comprised chiefly cohesive fracture within the crown material originated from cracks at the occlusal area, matching the maximum principal strain location. SIGNIFICANCE Five-unit implant-supported FDP with crowns individually cemented in a fiber-reinforced composite framework presented a high survival probability. Crown fracture comprised the main failure mode.

Effects of surface roughness on the time-dependent wear performance of lithium disilicate glass ceramic for dental applications. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2021; 121:104638. [PMID: 34171718 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2021.104638] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2021] [Revised: 05/31/2021] [Accepted: 06/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of surface roughness on the time-dependent wear performance of lithium disilicate (LD) glass-ceramic. METHODS Friction pairs (pin and disk specimens) were prepared by IPS e.max® Press lithium disilicate glass-ceramic. The lateral faces of friction pairs (N = 12) were grinded with silicon carbide papers, and 6 friction pairs were polished with a 0.25 μm diamond suspension after grinding. The friction pairs were tested for wear performance using a pin-on-disk tribometer with 10 N for 1.02 × 106 wear cycles in artificial saliva. Wear analysis of the pin and disk was performed with a 3D profilometer. The microstructure and worn surface morphology were examined with scanning electron microscopy. One-way analysis of variance and Tukey's post-hoc pairwise comparison were used to analyze the wear data. RESULTS The two group LD friction pairs presented strong time-dependent wear performance. The polished group (GP) exhibited a high wear rate and extensive surface wear during 0-1 × 105 cycles (running-in wear stage). The wear rate, height loss and surface roughness were obviously lower than those of grinded group (GG) in running-in wear stage. However, these wear parameters were similar during the steady wear stage. The worn surface topographies of the pin and disk in GP were smoother at the same cycle before the GG entering the steady wear stage. CONCLUSION Running-in, which means the initial stage of wear process, is a critical period to determine the final wear loss and surface degradation, when compare the wear behavior of lithium disilicate ceramic with different initial surface states. Ceramic layer with smooth contact area leads to low wear rate and short running-in wear stage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To characterize the physicochemical and mechanical properties of a milled fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) for implant-supported fixed dental prostheses (FDPs). METHODS For FRC characterization, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transformed infrared spectrometry, simultaneous thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry were performed. For fatigue testing, 3-unit FRC frameworks were fabricated with conventional (9 mm2 connector area) and modified designs (12 mm2 connector area and 2.5 mm-height lingual extension). A hybrid resin composite was veneered onto the frameworks. FDPs were subjected to step-stress accelerated-life fatigue testing until fracture or suspension. Use level probability Weibull curves at 300 N were plotted and the reliability for 100,000 cycles at 300, 600 and 800 N was calculated. Fractographic analysis was performed by stereomicroscope and SEM. RESULTS The FRC consisted of an epoxy resin (∼25%) matrix reinforced with inorganic particles and glass fibers (∼75%). Multi-layer continuous regular-geometry fibers were densely arranged in a parallel and bidirectional fashion in the resin matrix. Fatigue analysis demonstrated high probability of survival (99%) for FDPs at 300 N, irrespective of framework design. Conventional FDPs showed a progressive decrease in the reliability at 600 (84%) and 800 N (19%), whereas modified FDPs reliability significantly reduced only at 800 N (75%). The chief failure modes for FRC FDPs were cohesive fracture of the veneering composite on lower loads and adhesive fracture of the veneering composite at higher loads. SIGNIFICANCE Milled epoxy resin matrix reinforced with glass fibers composite resulted in high probability of survival in the implant-supported prosthesis scenario.

Survival of implant-supported resin-matrix ceramic crowns: In silico and fatigue analyses. Dent Mater 2021; 37:523-533.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the fatigue survival, failure mode, and maximum principal stress (MP Stress) and strain (MP Strain) of resin-matrix ceramic systems used for implant-supported crowns. METHODS Identical molar crowns were milled using four resin-matrix ceramics (n = 21/material): (i) Shofu Hard, (ii) Cerasmart (iii) Enamic, and (iv) Shofu HC. Crowns were cemented on the abutments, and the assembly underwent step-stress accelerated-life testing. Use level probability Weibull curves at 300 N were plotted and the reliability at 300, 500 and 800 N was calculated for a mission of 50,000 cycles. Fractographic analysis was performed using stereomicroscope and scanning electron microscope. MP Stress and MP Strain were determined by finite element analysis. RESULTS While fatigue dictated failures for Cerasmart (β > 1), material strength controlled Shofu Hard, Enamic, and Shofu HC failures (β < 1). Shofu HC presented lower reliability at 300 N (79%) and 500 N (59%) than other systems (>90%), statistically different at 500 N. Enamic (57%) exhibited a significant reduction in the probability of survival at 800 N, significantly lower than Shofu Hard and Cerasmart; however, higher than Shofu HC (12%). Shofu Hard and Cerasmart (>93%) demonstrated no significant difference for any calculated mission (300-800 N). Failure mode predominantly involved resin-matrix ceramic fracture originated from occlusal cracks, corroborating with the MP Stress and Strain location, propagating through the proximal and cervical margins. SIGNIFICANCE All resin-matrix ceramics crowns demonstrated high probability of survival in a physiological molar load, whereas Shofu Hard and Cerasmart outperformed Enamic and Shofu HC at higher loads. Material fracture comprised the main failure mode.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Mechanical damages can occur from dental restoration processing and fitting, or while it is in-service. This study evaluates the damage sensitivity of translucent zirconia (5Y-PSZ) relative to conventional 3Y-PSZ following mouth-motion simulations at various loads. METHODS 5Y-PSZ and 3Y-PSZ discs were adhesively bonded to a dentin-like substrate and divided into groups according to the load (50 N or 200 N) and number of cycles (up to 106) used in the chewing simulation. Specimens were mounted with 30° inclination in an electrodynamic mouth-motion simulator, and subjected to contact-slide-liftoff cyclic loading in water. Surface and sub-surface damages were analyzed using a sectioning technique. After the simulation, specimens were removed from the substrate and loaded with the damaged surface in tension for biaxial strength testing to assess their damage tolerance. RESULTS The strength of both ceramics underwent significant degradation after mouth-motion simulations. For 5Y-PSZ, the strength degradation was greater (∼60%) and occurred at a lower number of cycles than 3Y-PSZ. Herringbone cracks emerged on 3Y-PSZ and 5Y-PSZ surfaces under a 200-N load after 50 and 10 cycles, respectively. Meanwhile at a 50-N load, cracks formed at ∼1000 cycles in both ceramics. Further increasing the number of cycles only had moderate effects on the strength of both ceramics, despite an increase in surface and sub-surface damage. More significantly, a 50-N occlusal load can debase the zirconia strengths as much as a 200-N load. SIGNIFICANCE Surface flaws produced during the chewing simulation are capable of significant strength degradation in zirconia, even after a small number of low-load cycles.

Abstract
PURPOSE Fractographic analysis has been used to investigate the fracture behavior of Computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) composite crowns by subjecting them to compression tests. However, it is difficult to investigate details of the fracture, including its initiation and propagation, using in vitro tests. The aim of this study was to determine the fracture origins and the order of crack initiation of CAD/CAM composite crowns using in silico nonlinear dynamic finite element analysis (FEA). MATERIAL AND METHODS The following materials were used: Cerasmart (CS), Katana Avencia Block (KA), and Shofu Block HC (HC) as CAD/CAM crowns, Panavia SA Cement Plus (SA) as a luting material, and Clearfil DC Core Plus (DC) as an abutment. The elastic moduli and fracture strain of each material were obtained from the stress-strain curve of in vitro three-point bending tests. The fracture origins and order of crack initiation of the materials were determined by in silico nonlinear dynamic compression analysis. Load-displacement curves were statistically compared with the results of the in vitro compression tests (Pearson's correlation test, α = 0.05). RESULTS The nonlinear dynamic FEA demonstrated that crack initiation was primarily observed near the lingual side of the CAD/CAM crowns and immediately propagated to the central fossa. The models were fractured following the in vitro fracture strains, showing the same order for the products tested (CS/KA/HC, SA, and DC). Load-displacement curves with the use of CS, KA, and HC were significantly correlated to the corresponding in vitro compression tests results (CS: r = 0.985, p < 0.05, KA: r = 0.987, p < 0.05, and HC: r = 0.997, p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The in silico model established in this study clarified the crack initiation of the CAD/CAM composite crowns and the order of crack initiation among the investigated products, suggesting that the present approach is useful for analyzing the fracture behavior of CAD/CAM composite crowns in detail.

Wear behavior and microstructural characterization of translucent multilayer zirconia. Dent Mater 2020; 36:1407-1417. [PMID: 32958309 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2020.08.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2020] [Revised: 07/12/2020] [Accepted: 08/29/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To characterize the composition, microstructure and wear properties of a multilayer translucent zirconia relative to the conventional 3Y-TZP. METHODS Two types of ceramics were evaluated: a multilayer zirconia (MULTI, IPS e.max ZirCAD Multi, Ivoclar Vivadent) and a control 3Y-TZP (IPS e.max ZirCAD LT, Ivoclar Vivadent). Pre-sintered CAD-CAM blocks were cut, ground, sintered and polished to 1 μm finish. The phase fraction and grain size were measured using XRD and FE-SEM. For wear testing (n = 12), square-shaped specimens (16 × 16 × 1 mm) were adhesively bonded to a dentin analog. Sliding wear tests were performed using a spherical zirconia antagonist (r = 3.15 mm), with 30 N load at 1.5 Hz for 500,000 cycles in water. Optical and scanning electron microscopes and 3D laser scanner were used for quantitative wear analyses. Data were analyzed using Student's t-test (α = 0.05). RESULTS For MULTI, the enamel layer had the highest cubic content and the largest grain size, followed by the two transition layers, and the dentin layer. 3Y-TZP showed the smallest grain size and cubic content. A significant amount of wear was observed in both materials up to 50,000 cycles until it reached a plateau. MULTI showed higher volume loss and greater wear depth than 3Y-TZP (p < 0.01). The higher volume loss was associated with extensive lateral fracture, leading to material spalling from the surface of cubic-containing zirconias. SIGNIFICANCE The wear pattern in multi-layered zirconia was more severe than 3Y-TZP. Additionally, the different layers of the multi-layered zirconia had similar wear behavior.
