A systematic review and meta-analysis of in-vitro studies. JAPANESE DENTAL SCIENCE REVIEW 2023; 59:312-328. [PMID: 37705876 PMCID: PMC10495607 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdsr.2023.08.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2022] [Revised: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 08/22/2023] [Indexed: 09/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Zirconia restorations are increasingly popular in dental treatment. Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) needs to be sintered for clinical applications and novel speed-sintering protocols are being developed for chairside treatments. Whether the properties of speed-sintered YSZ meet clinical requirements, however, remains unclear. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis on the influence of speed-sintering on the optical and mechanical properties of dental YSZ according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 guidelines. A literature search was conducted using PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases for relevant articles published between January 1, 2010 and February 28, 2022 in English, Chinese, or Japanese. After full-text evaluation and quality assessment, 26 articles were selected. Meta-analysis revealed that speed-sintering does not significantly affect the CIEDE2000-based translucency parameter, contrast ratio, three-point flexural strength, biaxial flexural strength, or fracture toughness of YSZ (p < 0.01) compared to conventional sintering. However, the CIELab-based translucency parameter of conventionally sintered YSZ is higher than that of speed-sintered YSZ. The descriptive analysis indicated that speed-sintering does not affect the hardness of YSZ compared to that of conventionally sintered YSZ. The results indicate that speed-sintering is suitable for preparing YSZ for dental restorations.

Yang S, Li Q, Chen SY, Yu H. Effect of multiple firings on the marginal fit of monolithic zirconia crowns: An in vitro study. J Prosthet Dent 2023; 130:897-901. [PMID: 35181056 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2021.12.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2021] [Revised: 12/27/2021] [Accepted: 12/28/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Speed sintering was introduced to save chair time and produce monolithic zirconia restorations in a single visit. Multiple firings are usually required clinically for both speed-sintered and conventionally sintered monolithic zirconia crowns. However, the effects of multiple firings on the marginal fit of speed-sintered and conventionally sintered monolithic zirconia crowns are unknown. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of multiple firings on the marginal fit of speed-sintered and conventionally sintered monolithic zirconia crowns. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty conventionally sintered and 20 speed-sintered monolithic zirconia crowns were milled, sintered, and repeatedly fired by using conventional sintering and speed sintering furnaces. The absolute marginal discrepancy of the crowns was measured with a measuring microscope at ×100 magnification after sintering (T0) and after the first (T1), second (T2), and third firings (T3). Two-way repeated-measures ANOVA was used to detect the impact of multiple firings on the absolute marginal discrepancy of conventionally sintered and speed-sintered monolithic zirconia crowns and the differences between the 2 materials (α=.05). RESULTS Multiple firings improved the absolute marginal discrepancy of conventionally sintered and speed-sintered monolithic zirconia crowns (P<.001). The absolute marginal discrepancy of conventionally sintered monolithic zirconia crowns at T2 and T3 was significantly smaller than that at T1 (P=.008 and 0.016, respectively), and the absolute marginal discrepancy of speed-sintered monolithic zirconia crowns at T2 was significantly smaller than that at T1 (P=.015). The speed-sintered monolithic zirconia crowns had a better marginal fit than conventionally sintered monolithic zirconia crowns (P=.008). No significant interaction was found between the multiple firings and material types on the absolute marginal discrepancy of monolithic zirconia crowns (P=.914). CONCLUSIONS Multiple firing cycles can significantly improve the marginal fit of conventionally sintered and speed-sintered monolithic zirconia crowns. The speed-sintered monolithic zirconia crowns have a better marginal fit (both vertically and horizontally) than the conventionally sintered monolithic zirconia crowns.

Impact of high-speed sintering and choice of preshaded monochrome or multilayered blanks on fatigue behavior of 4 mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal. J Prosthet Dent 2023; 130:639-645.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM High-speed sintering allows the rapid fabrication of esthetic restorations with adequate flexural strength. However, data on the fatigue behavior of high-speed sintered 4 mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (4Y-TZP) are lacking. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to examine the effect of high-speed sintering and the preshading of blanks (monochrome versus multilayer) on the fatigue behavior of 4Y-TZP ceramics. MATERIAL AND METHODS Four-point flexural strength specimens (N=405) were fabricated from high-speed sintered multilayer 4Y-TZP (Zolid DRS) processed at 1580 °C for about 20 minutes and conventionally sintered at 1450 °C for about 10 hours, multilayer 4Y-TZP (Zolid Gen-x), and monochrome 4Y-TZP (Ceramill Zolid HT+PS), the control group. The specimens were loaded under 5 different dynamic test conditions for fatigue testing (P1-P5). Three were step-stress protocols (P1: 50 N for 5000 cycles; P2: 10 N for 1000 cycles, P3: 5% for 5000 cycles), 1 was tested with a constant force of 720 N (P4), and 1 was tested for different constant load levels (P5). For analysis of P1-P3, the Kaplan-Meier test and Mantel Cox test were performed (α=.05). P4 was analyzed with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Kruskal-Wallis, and Mann-Whitney U tests, and P5 by creating a load-cycle diagram. A fracture analysis was performed. RESULTS ZMLC showed better fatigue behavior than ZMLH (P≤.006) and ZMOC (P≤.002) in all 3 step-stress protocols (P1-P3). ZMLH showed results comparable with those for ZMOC (P≥.285). In P4 and P5, all materials showed comparable values (P=.163 for P4). CONCLUSIONS The multilayer technique showed a positive effect on the fatigue behavior of 4Y-TZP. In contrast, high-speed sintering negatively influenced the fatigue behavior of multilayer 4Y-TZP. The high-speed sintered material showed no deterioration compared with the conventional sintered monochrome material.

Conventional, Speed Sintering and High-Speed Sintering of Zirconia: A Systematic Review of the Current Status of Applications in Dentistry with a Focus on Precision, Mechanical and Optical Parameters. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11164892. [PMID: 36013131 PMCID: PMC9409711 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11164892] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2022] [Revised: 08/04/2022] [Accepted: 08/17/2022] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this systematic review was to provide an overview of the technical and clinical outcomes of conventional, speed sintering and high-speed sintering protocols of zirconia in the dental field. Data on precision, mechanical and optical parameters were evaluated and related to the clinical performance of zirconia ceramic. The PICOS search strategy was applied using MEDLINE to search for in vitro and in vivo studies using MeSH Terms by two reviewers. Of 66 potentially relevant studies, 5 full text articles were selected and 10 were further retrieved through a manual search. All 15 studies included in the systematic review were in vitro studies. Mechanical, precision and optical properties (marginal and internal fit, fracture strength and modulus, wear, translucency and opalescence, aging resistance/hydrothermal aging) were evaluated regarding 3-, 4- and 5-YTZP zirconia material and conventional, high- and high-speed sintering protocols. Mechanical and precision results were similar or better when speed or high-speed sintering methods were used for 3-, 4- and 5-YTZP zirconia. Translucency is usually reduced when 3 Y-TZP is used with speed sintering methods. All types of zirconia using the sintering procedures performed mechanically better compared to lithium disilicate glass ceramics but glass ceramics showed better results regarding translucency.

Comparative analysis on intaglio surface trueness, wear volume loss of antagonist, and fracture resistance of full-contour monolithic zirconia crown for single-visit dentistry under simulated mastication. J Adv Prosthodont 2022; 14:173-181. [PMID: 35855321 PMCID: PMC9259349 DOI: 10.4047/jap.2022.14.3.173] [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: 03/10/2022] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE This analysis aimed to evaluate the intaglio surface trueness, antagonist’s wear volume loss, and fracture resistance of full-contour crowns of (Y, Nb)-stabilized fully-sintered zirconia (FSZ), 4 mol% or 5 mol% yttria-stabilized partially sintered zirconia (4YZ or 5YZ) with high-speed sintering. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 42 zirconia crowns were separated into three groups: FSZ, 4YZ, and 5YZ (n = 14). The intaglio surface trueness of the crowns was evaluated at the inner surface, occlusal, margin, and axial areas and reported as root-mean-square, positive and negative average deviation. Half of the specimens were aged for 120,000 cycles in the chewing simulator, and the wear volume loss of antagonist was measured. Before and after chewing, the fracture load was measured for each group. The trueness values were analyzed with Welch's ANOVA, and the wear volume loss with the Kruskal-Wallis tests. Effect of the zirconia type and aging on fracture resistance of crowns was tested using two-way ANOVA. RESULTS The intaglio surface trueness measured at four different areas of the crown was less than 50 µm, regardless of the type of zirconia. No significant P in wear volume loss of antagonists were detected among the groups (P > .05). Both the type of zirconia and aging showed statistically significant effects on fracture resistance (P < .05). CONCLUSION The full-contour crowns of FSZ as well as 4YZ or 5YZ with high-speed sintering were clinically acceptable, in terms of intaglio surface trueness, antagonist’s wear volume loss, and fracture resistance after simulated mastication.

Abstract
This study analyzed the traditional and high-speed firing of dental ceramics based on zirconia. The types of furnaces for sintering zirconia, the basic principles of traditional, high-speed and super-speed firing, as well as the effect of the sintering protocol on the structure, physical, mechanical, optical properties, wear and marginal fit of zirconia were evaluated. The analysis showed that it`s necessary to develop a special optimal sintering technique using particular protocols in specific types of furnaces for each dental ceramic material based on zirconia, taking into account the composition and structure of the ceramics. To write this review, articles from the electronic databases of Medline, PubMed and the websites of dental journals were used.

Influence of high-speed sintering protocols on translucency, mechanical properties, microstructure, crystallography, and low-temperature degradation of highly translucent zirconia. Dent Mater 2021; 38:451-468. [PMID: 34961644 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2021.12.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2021] [Revised: 12/15/2021] [Accepted: 12/15/2021] [Indexed: 01/24/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Impacts of high-speed sintering on the optical and mechanical properties, microstructure, crystallography, and low-temperature degradation of commercial yttria-partially stabilized zirconia (Y-PSZ) were investigated. METHODS Five commercial Y-PSZ products (KATANA HT, KATANA STML, KATANA UTML, Zpex 4, and Zpex Smile) were investigated. Specimens were sintered following speed-sintering (~90 min) and conventional-sintering protocols (~7 h), and a group of KATANA STML was super-speed-sintered (18 min). Dimensions of the zirconia specimens after sintering were 14.5 mm (diameter) and 1.2 mm (thickness). Translucency was assessed using a colorimeter. Biaxial flexural strength was measured using a universal testing machine, followed by Weibull analysis. Scanning electron microscopy was used for microstructure assessments. X-ray diffraction was used to analyze the crystallography before and after hydrothermal aging. Low-temperature degradation (LTD) tests were performed at 134 °C under 2-3 bar water vapor in an autoclave. RESULTS The translucency and flexural strength were not affected significantly by the sintering programs (p > 0.05). The conventionally sintered KATANA STML and speed-sintered Zpex 4 presented the highest and lowest Weibull modulus, respectively. The conventionally-sintered Y-PSZ had a larger average grain size and smaller fraction of fine grains than those of the speed-sintered specimens. The fractographic analysis of the speed- and conventionally sintered Y-PSZ yielded comparable results. The speed-sintered Y-PSZ exhibited a lower c-ZrO2 content than that of conventionally-sintered Y-PSZ, except for KATANA HT and KATANA STML. LTD tests indicated that some of the speed and conventionally-sintered Y-PSZ exhibited similar monoclinic volume fractions. SIGNIFICANCE Speed-sintering programs are acceptable for Y-PSZ zirconia.

Abstract
Fit accuracy and fracture strength of milled monolithic zirconia (Zi) and zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS) crowns are important parameters determining the success of these restorations. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the marginal and internal fit of monolithic Zi and ZLS crowns, along with the fracture load, with and without mechanical aging. Thirty-two stone dies acquired from a customized master metal molar die were scanned, and ceramic crowns (16 Zi Ceramill Zolid HT+ and 16 ZLS Vita Suprinity) were designed and milled. Absolute marginal discrepancies (AMD), marginal gaps (MG), and internal gaps (IG) of the crowns, in relation to the master metal die, were evaluated using x-ray nanotomography (n = 16). Next, thirty-two metal dies were fabricated based on the master metal die, and crowns (16 Zi; 16 ZLS) cemented and divided into four groups of eight each; eight Zi with mechanical aging (MA), eight Zi without mechanical aging (WMA), eight ZLS (MA), and eight ZLS (WMA). Two groups of crowns (Zi-MA; ZLS-MA) were subjected to 500,000 mechanical cycles (200 ± 50 N, 10 Hz) followed by axial compressive strength testing of all crowns, until failure, and the values were recorded. Independent sample t tests (α = 0.05) revealed no significant differences between Zi and ZLS crowns (p > 0.05); for both internal and marginal gaps, however, there were significant differences in AMD (p < 0.005). Independent samples Mann–Whitney U and Kruskal–Wallis tests revealed significant differences between the two materials, Zi and ZLS, regardless of fatigue loading, and for the individual material groups based on aging (α = 0.05). Multiple comparisons using Bonferroni post-hoc analysis showed significant differences between Zi and ZLS material groups, with or without aging. Within the limitations of this study, the ZLS crown fit was found to be on par with Zi, except for the AMD parameter. As regards fracture resistance, both materials survived the normal range of masticatory forces, but the Zi crowns demonstrated greater resistance to fracture. The monolithic Zi and ZLS crowns seem suitable for clinical application, based on the fit and fracture strength values obtained.
