Nonaka K, Teramae M, Pezzotti G. Effect of rapid cooling on residual stress and surface fracture toughness of dental zirconia. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2024; 157:106656. [PMID: 39033559 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2024.106656] [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: 05/08/2024] [Revised: 06/24/2024] [Accepted: 07/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024]
Abstract
Short-time sintering of dental zirconia not only improves manufacturing efficiency of zirconia prosthetics, but also enables an attractive situation in which prosthetic treatment can be completed within a single visit. Although many studies have clarified the effects of heating rate and dwell time on the properties of dental zirconia during short-time sintering, there are only a few studies on rapid cooling. In this study, we investigated the effect of cooling rate on dental zirconia. It was found that the cooling rate had no effect on the three-point flexural strength, but a fast cooling rate improved fracture toughness at the material surface. Raman piezo-spectroscopy showed that a compressive stress layer formed in the neighborhood of the zirconia surface and that its thickness increased with increasing cooling rate. From the above results, it was concluded that the compressive stress layer formed on the surface by rapid cooling improved the apparent fracture toughness at the material surface.

J Dent Res Dent Clin Dent Prospects 2024; 18:123-128. [PMID: 39071209 PMCID: PMC11282196 DOI: 10.34172/joddd.40755] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 03/01/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Multilayer zirconia has more optical and aesthetic features than regular zirconia. Therefore, its mechanical properties should be compared with monochromatic zirconia. Among the mechanical characteristics that can be checked are the wear of the opposite tooth and the bond to the porcelain. This study assessed the effect of zirconia type (multilayer versus monochromatic) on the shear bond strength (SBS) to feldspathic porcelain and the wear of the opposing teeth. Methods The present in vitro study was conducted in two phases. In the first phase, 15 multilayer and 15 monochromatic zirconia blocks measuring 10×5×5 mm were designed, milled, sintered, veneered with porcelain, and underwent thermocycling. Their SBS was then measured in a universal testing machine. In the second phase, 15 multilayer and 15 monochromatic zirconia blocks were placed in a chewing simulator, and 30 sound premolars served as antagonistic teeth. The magnitude of wear of the buccal cusp of premolars was quantified from a 4-mm reference point after 100000 cycles. Data were analyzed by independent t test (α=0.05). Results The mean SBS of monochromatic zirconia to porcelain (24.49±3.58 MP) was slightly higher than that of multilayer zirconia (22.98±2.98 MP), but the difference was not significant (P>0.05). The mean wear of the opposing teeth was also slightly higher in the monochromatic group (284.1±66.53 µm) than in the multilayer group (263.2±58.69 µm), but this difference was not significant either (P>0.05). Conclusion Monochromatic and multilayer zirconia showed comparable SBS to feldspathic porcelain and caused comparable wear of the opposing teeth in vitro. Thus, multilayer zirconia may serve as an alternative to monochromatic zirconia.

Fatigue and failure mode analyses of glass infiltrated 5Y-PSZ bonded onto dentin analogues. Sci Rep 2024; 14:13262. [PMID: 38858417 PMCID: PMC11164944 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-64110-8] [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: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 06/12/2024] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fatigue survival of 5Y-PSZ zirconia infiltrated with an experimental glass and bonded onto dentin analogues. Disc-shaped specimens of a 5Y-PSZ (Katana UTML Kuraray Noritake) were cemented onto dentin analogs (NEMA G10) and divided into four groups (n = 15): Zctrl Group (control, without infiltration); Zglz Group (Glaze, compression surface); Zinf-comp Group (Experimental Glass, compression surface); Zinf-tens Group (Experimental Glass, tension surface). Surface treatments were varied. Cyclic fatigue loading, oblique transillumination, stereomicroscope examination, and scanning electron microscopy were performed. Fatigue data were analyzed (failure load and number of cycles) using survival analysis (Kaplan-Meier and Log-Rank Mantel-Cox). There was no statistically significant difference in fatigue survival between the Zglz, Zctrl, and Zinf-comp groups. The Zinf-tens group presented a significantly higher failure load when compared to the other groups and exhibited a different failure mode. The experimental glass effectively infiltrated the zirconia, enhancing structural reliability, altering the failure mode, and improving load-bearing capacity over more cycles, particularly in the group where the glass was infiltrated into the tensile surface of the zirconia. Glass infiltration into 5Y-PSZ zirconia significantly enhanced structural reliability and the ability to withstand loads over an increased number of cycles. This approach has the potential to increase the durability of zirconia restorations, reducing the need for replacements and save time and resources, promoting efficiency in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent forms of translucent zirconia material have been developed, offering a wide range of options and varieties for enhancing aesthetics, making it a preferred choice in the field of prosthetic dentistry. However, there is insufficient understanding regarding the recent types of zirconia materials and their optical behavior. Understanding the variables that influence the translucency of zirconia and identifying strategies to enhance its esthetics are crucial. PURPOSE The current systemic review highlights a comprehensive understanding of different zirconia generations in relation to their optical characteristics and evaluates material-related variables affecting their translucency. METHODS The present review studied in-vitro studies that evaluated the optical characteristics of different yttria content of yttria stabilized materials. The topics explored were: (1) the different zirconia material generations and their optical behavior; (2) material-related factors that affect their translucency. The research was restricted to online publication in the English language from July 1, 2010, to July 31, 2023, using PubMed, Scopus, and Science Direct resources. The search key terms and their combinations were "zirconia," "translucent zirconia," "cubic zirconia," "highly translucent zirconia," "yttria partially stabilized zirconia," "monolithic zirconia," "translucency," "optical properties," and "light transmission." RESULTS The data obtained from fifty-three studies addressed the optical characteristics of various zirconia generations. They reported that changing yttria content had a significant impact on translucency. Different kinds of zirconia ceramics of the same generation have varying translucencies. Achieving optimum aesthetics with monolithic zirconia is challenging due to factors related to material aspects such as the presence of additives, point defects, microstructure, thickness, phase distribution, and sintering conditions. CONCLUSIONS Newly developed monolithic dental zirconia ceramics have improved aesthetics and translucency. However, additional research is necessary to evaluate their performance and long-term durability. TRIAL REGISTRATION This systematic review was registered in PROSPERO, under number CRD42023474482.

Abstract
The present study aimed to compare the microstructure, physical, and mechanical properties of three commercially available dental polychromatic multilayer zirconia materials of uniform composition: Dima Mill Zirconia ML, VITA YZ/ST Multicolor, and VITA YZ/XT Multicolor (with 3, 4, and 5 mol% Y2 O3 , respectively); thus, the influence of Y2 O3 content on the above properties of the produced materials was experimentally studied. Homogeneous zirconia ceramics with a dense micro- and nanostructure, without pores or defects, were produced after milling the blocks and sintering, which resulted in yttrium-stabilized tetragonal and cubic zirconia. Statistical analysis of the results of measurable magnitudes was performed by the one-way ANOVA test. The increase of Y2 O3 content (from 3 to 5 mol%) favored larger grain and crystallite sizes and a decrease of the values of the mechanical properties; yet, the differences were statistically insignificant. Clinically, these differences are expected to have no impact on their function in the oral cavity, both in terms of their fracture propensity and the damage that can be caused to the opposing teeth. Accordingly, the experimental results qualify the polychromic multilayer zirconia ceramics of uniform composition fabricated by milling technology for use in dental restorations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the impact of speed sintering on the microstructure and optical properties of 3 and 5 mol% yttria-partially stabilized monolithic zirconias. METHODS 120 plate-shaped zirconia specimens (10x10x 0.4 mm) were prepared from three commercial 5 mol% yttria-partially stabilized zirconia blocks (5Y-PSZs); Katana UTML (Kuraray Noritake), Cercon xtML (Dentsply Sirona), and Zolid FX white (Amann Girrbach), and two commercial 3 mol% yttria-partially stabilized zirconia blocks (3Y-PSZs); Lava Plus (3 M ESPE) and InCoris (Sirona, GmbH). Specimens were either conventional sintered (CS) using a 7-hour program or speed sintered (SS) using a quick 90-minute program. The microstructure was inspected with a scanning electron microscope (SEM), and phase fractions were detected using x-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). Translucency (TP00), and contrast ratio (CR) were obtained using a spectrophotometer (VITA Easyshade V). Color difference (ΔE00) between both sintering processes was calculated with the CIEDE2000 formula. ΔE00 up to 1.8 was set as the acceptability threshold. Data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA, Krusakll-Wallis, and Mann-Whitney U tests. (n = 12, α = .05). RESULTS Grain size was significantly decreased after SS for all tested materials (P < .0001). The average grain sizes of 5Y-PSZs were significantly larger than those of 3Y-PSZs. The atomic structure, microstructure, and transparency of CS and SS were all affected by the amount of yttria, the size of the crystals, and tetragonality. SS significantly reduced TP00 (F = 7135.95, P < 0.0001) and increased CR (F = 453.21, P < 0.0001). The CS Katana presented the highest TP00 and lowest CR value. ΔE00 between the CS and SS groups were clinically acceptable except for Lava, which had values above the set threshold (1.89). SIGNIFICANCE SS altered the grain size and internal structure of the tested materials, which was reflected in translucency.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This clinical case describes a completely digital workflow using current digital technologies for a full-mouth adhesive rehabilitation with ultra-translucent multilayer zirconia restorations. CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS A healthy 60-year-old man with abfractions on all upper and lower molars and severe tooth wear underwent a full-mouth rehabilitation with laminate veneers and partial adhesive restorations. A proper zirconia bonding protocol was realized to provide a durable bond between the ultra-translucent zirconia and the resin cement. Furthermore, the implementation of a digital workflow enables the clinician to have an effective communication during treatment planning and simplify the clinical and laboratory procedures, providing the patient with long-term esthetic treatment and functional results. CONCLUSION The implementation of a completely digital workflow and the use of ultra-translucent multilayer zirconia for indirect adhesive restorations can be an alternative with simplified and predictable procedures for patients with dental wear and teeth discolorations. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The digital workflow described is intended to facilitate the planning and execution of a full-mouth adhesive rehabilitation and demonstrates to clinicians a reliable zirconia bonding concept for minimally invasive anterior and posterior restorations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present study determined the mechanical properties and the wear behavior, as results of the micro(nano)structure, of the enamel, transition, and dentine layers, which comprise the polychromic multilayer zirconia materials of hybrid composition fabricated by milling technology. MATERIALS AND METHODS Prismatic blocks were fabricated from two commercial pre-sintered dental polychromic multilayer zirconia materials of hybrid composition, IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime (medium and high translucency, from the dentine to the incisal layer) and 3D Pro ML (translucency gradient, from the dentine to the incisal layer) by milling technique, and then, cut into 3 distinct parts to separate the enamel, transition, and dentine layers. The samples were sintered, thermally treated (similarly to the glazing procedure), and polished for characterization. Their microstructure, mechanical properties (determined by nanoindentation and microhardness), and wear behavior (evaluated by scratch test), were examined. RESULTS The produced materials had a homogeneous and dense nanostructure, where the grain size decreased from the enamel to dentine layer. The mechanical properties decreased from the dentine to enamel layer. However, the three layers manifested similar dynamic friction coefficient. CONCLUSION The differences in the above properties in the three layers negligibly influenced the wear behavior of the entire multilayer zirconia material. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The properties of dental restorations produced from polychromic multilayer zirconia of hybrid composition by milling technology (i.e., strong, non-fragile, and esthetic materials), anticipate good performance in oral cavity.

Effect of superspeed sintering on translucency, opalescence, microstructure, and phase fraction of multilayered 4 mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal and 6 mol% yttria-stabilized partially stabilized zirconia ceramics. J Prosthet Dent 2023; 130:254.e1-254.e10. [PMID: 37357086 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2023.05.014] [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: 12/15/2022] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/16/2023] [Indexed: 06/27/2023]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The optical properties of recently developed multilayer zirconia have mainly been studied for the effects of conventional sintering and speed sintering but not as much for the effect of superspeed sintering. As superspeed sintering protocols typically require a higher sintering temperature and higher heating and cooling rates than speed- and conventional sintering protocols, the optical properties of superspeed sintered zirconia may be affected differently. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of superspeed sintering on the optical properties, microstructure, and phase fraction of multilayered 4 mol% yttria-stabilized (4Y-) and 6 mol% yttria-stabilized (6Y-) zirconia. MATERIAL AND METHODS Multilayered 4Y- and 6Y-zirconia were sectioned. After conventional and superspeed sintering, the translucency parameter (TP), and opalescence parameter (OP) were measured with a spectrophotometer (n=10). To obtain the grain sizes from the field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) images for each layer (n=2), more than 500 (6Y-zirconia) and 800 grains (4Y-zirconia) were measured by linear intercept methods. The phase fractions were obtained through X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis by using the Rietveld method (n=1). The results were analyzed by 3-way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey honest significant difference tests (TP and OP) and by 3-way ANOVA and post hoc Scheffé tests (grain size) (α=.05). RESULTS No layers exhibited a significant difference in TP after superspeed sintering, except the dentin layer (DL) and transition layer 2 (T2) of 4Y- and 6Y-zirconia, respectively. The TP increased (P<.05) in DL for superspeed sintered 4Y-zirconia and decreased (P<.05) in T2 for the superspeed sintered 6Y-zirconia. However, the difference in TP by superspeed sintering was lower than the perceptibility thresholds of 50:50%. The OP decreased (P<.05) in the DL and T2 of 4Y-zirconia after superspeed sintering. For 6Y-zirconia, the OP decreased (P<.05) in all layers except for the transition layer 1 (T1) after superspeed sintering. However, the difference in OP values was minimal, with only a 1.1 difference observed for Zolid Gen-X (4Y) and a range of 1.22 to 1.62 for Katana UTML (6Y) when using superspeed sintering. No significant change was found in the grain size after superspeed sintering of either zirconia. Regardless of the sintering speed, the average grain size of the 6Y-zirconia (conventional: 2.09 to 2.21 μm; superspeed: 2.11 to 2.20 μm) was larger than that of the 4Y-zirconia (conventional: 0.50 to 0.52 μm; superspeed: 0.52 to 0.54 μm). Owing to superspeed sintering, the metastable tetragonal (T') phase content increased while the tetragonal (T) phase decreased in 4Y-zirconia; in 6Y-zirconia, the cubic (C) phase content increased, while the T'-phase content decreased. CONCLUSIONS Superspeed sintering did not result in any clinically significant changes in the translucency and opalescence of 4Y- or 6Y-zirconia.

Shear bond strength of porcelain to milled and stereolithography additively manufactured zirconia with and without surface treatment: An in vitro study. J Prosthet Dent 2023:S0022-3913(23)00113-0. [PMID: 36932021 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2023.02.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2022] [Revised: 02/14/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2023] [Indexed: 03/17/2023]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Delamination of veneering ceramic is one of the most common challenges relating to veneered zirconia restorations. Additive manufacturing (AM) is a fast-expanding technology that has gained widespread acceptance in dentistry and is increasingly being used to produce dental restorations. However, information about bonding of porcelain to AM zirconia is lacking. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the shear bond strength (SBS) of porcelain to milled and additively manufactured zirconia, and the effect of surface treatment on bond strength. MATERIAL AND METHODS A Ø12×5-mm disk was designed virtually to fabricate all specimens, which were divided into 2 groups according to the manufacturing technique: additively manufactured or milled zirconia. The effect of airborne-particle abrasion and a zirconia liner before porcelain application was investigated in both groups. Veneering porcelain was fired into an alumina ring mold on the zirconia surface. SBS was measured by using a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min before and after aging (n=10). SBS data were analyzed with 3-way ANOVA (α=.05) RESULTS: A significant difference was found between milled and AM zirconia. The SBS of porcelain to milled zirconia was significantly higher (1.38 MPa) than to AM zirconia (0.68 MPa) (P<.001). The surface treatment of zirconia had no significant effect on porcelain SBS in either group (P=.254), whereas thermocycling significantly reduced the SBS of porcelain to zirconia in both milled and AM groups (P=.001). CONCLUSIONS Porcelain bonding to milled zirconia was better than to AM zirconia. Pretreating the zirconia substrate before porcelain application did not improve the porcelain bond.

Abstract
The demands for dental materials continue to grow, driven by the desire to reach a better performance than currently achieved by the available materials. In the dental restorative ceramic field, the structures evolved from the metal-ceramic systems to highly translucent multilayered zirconia, aiming not only for tailored mechanical properties but also for the aesthetics to mimic natural teeth. Ceramics are widely used in prosthetic dentistry due to their attractive clinical properties, including high strength, biocompatibility, chemical stability, and a good combination of optical properties. Metal-ceramics type has always been the golden standard of dental reconstruction. However, this system lacks aesthetic aspects. For this reason, efforts are made to develop materials that met both the mechanical features necessary for the safe performance of the restoration as well as the aesthetic aspects, aiming for a beautiful smile. In this field, glass and high-strength core ceramics have been highly investigated for applications in dental restoration due to their excellent combination of mechanical properties and translucency. However, since these are recent materials when compared with the metal-ceramic system, many studies are still required to guarantee the quality and longevity of these systems. Therefore, a background on available dental materials properties is a starting point to provoke a discussion on the development of potential alternatives to rehabilitate lost hard and soft tissue structures with ceramic-based tooth and implant-supported reconstructions. This review aims to bring the most recent materials research of the two major categories of ceramic restorations: ceramic-metal system and all-ceramic restorations. The practical aspects are herein presented regarding the evolution and development of materials, technologies applications, strength, color, and aesthetics. A trend was observed to use high-strength core ceramics type due to their ability to be manufactured by CAD/CAM technology. In addition, the impacts of COVID-19 on the market of dental restorative ceramics are presented.

State of the Art of Different Zirconia Materials and Their Indications According to Evidence-Based Clinical Performance: A Narrative Review. Dent J (Basel) 2023; 11:dj11010018. [PMID: 36661555 PMCID: PMC9857458 DOI: 10.3390/dj11010018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Revised: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 12/27/2022] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to perform a narrative review to identify the modifications applied to the chemical structure of third- and fourth-generation zirconia ceramics and to determine the influence of these changes on the mechanical and optical properties. A bibliographical search using relevant keywords was conducted in the PubMed® and EBSCO databases. The abstracts and full texts of the resulting articles were reviewed for final inclusion. Fifty-four articles were included in this review. The analyzed topics were: (1) the composition of first- and second-generation zirconia materials (Y-TZP), (2) the behavior of the studied generations in relation to mechanical and optical properties, and (3) the modifications that were carried out on third-generation (5Y-TZP) and fourth-generation (4Y-TZP) zirconia materials. However, studies focusing on these specific characteristics in third- and fourth-generation zirconia materials are scarce. The review shows that there is a lack of sufficient knowledge about the chemical modifications of zirconia in the new generations.

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.

Sintering mode of a translucent Y-TZP: Effects on its biaxial flexure fatigue strength, surface morphology and translucency. J ESTHET RESTOR DENT 2022; 34:1197-1205. [PMID: 35560703 PMCID: PMC9790507 DOI: 10.1111/jerd.12923] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2022] [Revised: 04/08/2022] [Accepted: 04/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This investigation evaluated the effect of two sintering modes of a translucent zirconia (Y-TZP) on its surface roughness, topography, phase-transformation (t → m), translucency and biaxial flexure fatigue strength. MATERIALS AND METHODS To do so, 50 Y-TZP discs (Ø = 15 mm; thickness = 1.2 mm; IPS e.max ZirCAD LT) were prepared and divided into two groups: Standard mode (SM) and Fast mode (FM). Staircase fatigue testing was performed (piston-on-three balls set-up, ISO 6872:2015), as well as surface roughness, profilometry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM-FEG), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), phase transformation (t → m) using X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), translucency parameter analysis (TP and TP00 ) and fractography. RESULTS The results showed no statistical significant differences for roughness parameters (p > 0.05, SM: Ra = 0.13 ± 0.02, Rz = 1.21 ± 0.26 and RSm = 24.91 ± 2.19; FM: Ra = 0.14 ± 0.03, Rz = 1.32 ± 0.25 and RSm = 24.68 ± 2.16) or flexural fatigue strength (SM: 512 (464-560) MPa; FM: 542 (472-611) MPa) between the groups. In addition, similarity in surface morphological features (SEM and profilometry), composition and phases (EDX and XRD) was observed between the firing protocols. Fractography showed that the failure origin occurred on the tensile side. Sintering mode did not affect the TP (F = 0.001, p = 0.97) and TP00 (F = 0.12, p = 0.72). CONCLUSIONS Therefore, the fast-sintering mode is suggested as a viable alternative to the standard mode since it does not influence the evaluated surface morphology, microstructure, fatigue strength and translucency of a translucent monolithic zirconia. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The fast sintering mode is a viable alternative for zirconia without compromising its topography, microstructure, mechanical performance or translucency.

Mechanical characterization of a multi-layered zirconia: Flexural strength, hardness, and fracture toughness of the different layers. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2022; 135:105455. [PMID: 36148725 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2022.105455] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 08/30/2022] [Accepted: 09/06/2022] [Indexed: 10/31/2022]
Abstract
This study compared the flexural strength under monotonic (static - sσ) and cyclic load application (fatigue - fσ), hardness (H) and fracture toughness (KIC) of different layers of a multi-layered zirconia (IPS e.max ZirCAD MT Multi, Ivoclar). Each layer was sectioned, classified into three groups according to yttria content (4-YSZ, 4/5-YSZ and 5-YSZ), and shaped on samples for flexural strength and fracture toughness tests (bars: 1.0 × 1.0 × 11 mm); and Vickers hardness test (plates: 1.5 × 4.0 × 5.0 mm). Flexural strength under monotonic load application (sσ; n = 10) was obtained through two different devices (three-point-bending and ball-in-hole device) and fatigue flexural strength (fσ; n = 15; initial load: 10 N; step-size: 5 N; 10,000 cycles/step) was assessed using a ball-in-hole device under cyclic load application. Vickers hardness test (n = 5), fracture toughness test (n = 10), and additional analyzes (Finite Element Analysis - FEA, Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy - EDS and Scanning Electron Microscopy - SEM) were also performed. No differences were found between the different devices in the monotonic flexural strength test, and FEA showed similar tensile stress distribution for the two devices. 4-YSZ showed higher values of flexural strength under monotonic and cyclic load application modes (sσ = 1114.73 MPa; fσ = 798.84 MPa), and fracture toughness (KIC = 3.90 MPa√m). 4/5-YSZ had an intermediate sσ; however, fσ was similar to 5-YSZ (404.00-429.36 MPa) and KIC similar to 4-YSZ (KIC = 3.66 MPa√m). No statistical differences were found for hardness and Weibull modulus for fatigue flexural strength data. The amount of yttria in the layer compositions increased from 4-YSZ to 5-YSZ, and larger zirconia crystals were observed in the topographic images of 5-YSZ. Failures in the flexural strength and toughness tests started from the face subjected to tensile stress. Different layers of the multi-layered zirconia blank presented distinct mechanical properties. 4-YSZ (cervical layer) presented the highest flexural strength under monotonic and cyclic loads (fatigue), and higher fracture toughness even similar to the transition layer (4/5-YSZ). Hardness was similar between the layers. The ball-in-hole device performed similarly to the three-point bending device and can be used as an alternative to the traditional method.

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.

Wear Behaviour of Polymer-Infiltrated Network Ceramics, Lithium Disilicate and Cubic Zirconia against Enamel in a Bruxism-Simulated Scenario. Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10071682. [PMID: 35884986 PMCID: PMC9313215 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10071682] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 07/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The present study aimed to evaluate the wear rate of polymer-infiltrated network composites and ceramics against enamel in a bruxism-simulated scenario. Ninety-six (n = 96) molars were divided into six groups (n = 16) according to their occlusal material: group 1—a polymer-infiltrated network ceramic (PINC); group 2—a second polymer-infiltrated network ceramic (PINC2); group 3—nanohybrid resin-based composite (CO); group 4—cubic zirconia (ZR); group 5—lithium disilicate (LS); and group 6—sound enamel (EN). A laser scanner was used to digitalize all of the occlusal surfaces before and after a fatigue test, which was conducted with a chewing simulator set at 80 N and semicircular movement in order to simulate bruxist movement and loads. Statistical analysis of volume loss was performed with a one-way ANOVA and post hoc Bonferroni test. ZR had significantly inferior wear to PINC (p ≤ 0.01) and CO (p = 0.04). LS wore the antagonist enamel significantly more than PINC, CO, PINC2 and EN (p ≤ 0.01). On the other hand, ZR wore the antagonist enamel significantly more than CO (p ≤ 0.01) and PINC2 (p = 0.05). In conclusion, PINCs better preserved antagonist enamel at the expense of a higher wear of their own. LS causes significantly higher enamel wear compared with PINCs. ZR caused significantly higher enamel wear compared with CO and PINC2, but it was wear-resistant.

Abstract
A study is made of relationships between composition, processing, structure and properties of biphasic zirconia bioceramics. The focus is on zirconia compositions with different yttria dopant contents used in modern dental restorations, namely 3 - 5 mol% yttria stabilized zirconia (3YSZ, 4YSZ, and 5YSZ). Crystallographies and densities are surveyed, sintering conditions examined, and microstructures characterized. Strength and optical tests are conducted on each YSZ, and dependencies on sintering temperature, cubic content and grain size analyzed. Strength correlates with the amount of tetragonal zirconia (t-ZrO2) crystals with large lattice distortions (tetragonality). YSZ translucency correlates with content of cubic zirconia (c-ZrO2) and t-ZrO2 with low levels of tetragonality. Consistent with literature reporting, the materials rank in decreasing order 3YSZ, 4YSZ to 5YSZ for strength but increasing order for translucency. However, for a given composition, the data suggest that the strengths of densely sintered 3YSZ and 4YSZ actually increase with translucency, although that of 5YSZ remains undiminished. These trends are in apparent contradiction to prevailing experience, and offer potential future processing routes to optimization of clinical materials.

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.

Turker I, Kursoglu P. Wear evaluation of CAD-CAM dental ceramic materials by chewing simulation. J Adv Prosthodont 2021; 13:281-291. [PMID: 34777718 PMCID: PMC8558571 DOI: 10.4047/jap.2021.13.5.281] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2021] [Revised: 09/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the wear of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) dental ceramic materials opposed by enamel as a function of increased chewing forces. MATERIALS AND METHODS The enamel cusps of healthy human third molar teeth (n = 40) opposed by materials from CAD-CAM dental ceramic groups (n = 10), including Vita Enamic® (ENA), a polymer-infiltrated ceramic network (PICN); GC Cerasmart® (CERA), a resin nanoceramic; Celtra® Duo (DUO), a zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS) ceramic; and IPS e.max ZirCAD (ZIR), a polycrystalline zirconia, were exposed to chewing simulation (1,200,000 cycles; 120 N load; 1 Hz frequency; 0.7 mm lateral and 2 mm vertical motion). The wear of both enamel cusps and materials was quantified using a 3D laser scanner, and the wear mechanisms were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results were analysed using Welch ANOVA and Kruskal Wallis test (α = .05). RESULTS ZIR showed lower volume loss (0.02 ± 0.01 mm3) than ENA, CERA and DUO (P = .001, P = .018 and P = .005, respectively). The wear of cusp/DUO [0.59 mm3 (0.50-1.63 mm3)] was higher than cusp/CERA[0.17 mm3 (0.04-0.41 mm3)] (P = .007). ZIR showed completely different wear mechanism in SEM. CONCLUSION Composite structured materials such as PICN and ZLS ceramic exhibit more abrasive effect on opposing enamel due to their loss against wear, compared to uniform structured zirconia. The resin nanoceramic causes the lowest enamel wear thanks to its flexible nano-ceramic microstructure. While zirconia appears to be an enamel-friendly material in wear volume loss, it can cause microstructural defects of enamel.
