Abstract
Objectives
This study aimed to compare the flexural strength of monolithic zirconia with different thicknesses and two sintering techniques.
Materials and Methods
This in vitro, experimental study was conducted on 28 monolithic zirconia discs with 10 mm diameter and 0.5 (n = 14) and 1.2 mm (n = 14) thickness. Each group was divided into two subgroups (n = 7) for fast (60 min) and conventional (120 min) sintering at 1450°C. After sintering, the specimens were thermocycled and their flexural strength was measured by piston-on-3-balls technique in a universal testing machine (0.5 mm/min, 1.2 mm pin diameter). Data were analyzed by the Weibull test, one-way analysis of variance, and Tukey's test (α = .05).
Results
The flexural strength of specimens with 1.2 mm thickness was significantly higher than that of specimens with 0.5 mm thickness (p < .05). The flexural strength of 1.2 mm/120-min group was slightly, but not significantly, higher than that of 1.2 mm/60-min group (p > .05). The flexural strength of 0.5 mm/120-min group was slightly, but not significantly, higher than that of 0.5 mm/60-min group (p > .05).
Conclusion
The increase in thickness of monolithic zirconia increases its flexural strength; however, increasing the sintering time appears to have no significant effect on the flexural strength of monolithic zirconia.
期刊介绍：
Clinical and Experimental Dental Research aims to provide open access peer-reviewed publications of high scientific quality representing original clinical, diagnostic or experimental work within all disciplines and fields of oral medicine and dentistry. The scope of Clinical and Experimental Dental Research comprises original research material on the anatomy, physiology and pathology of oro-facial, oro-pharyngeal and maxillofacial tissues, and functions and dysfunctions within the stomatognathic system, and the epidemiology, aetiology, prevention, diagnosis, prognosis and therapy of diseases and conditions that have an effect on the homeostasis of the mouth, jaws, and closely associated structures, as well as the healing and regeneration and the clinical aspects of replacement of hard and soft tissues with biomaterials, and the rehabilitation of stomatognathic functions. Studies that bring new knowledge on how to advance health on the individual or public health levels, including interactions between oral and general health and ill-health are welcome.
