Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate the fracture-behavior of monolithic crowns made of lithium disilicate (IPS e.max CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent; IniBal LiSi Block, GC Dental) and zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (Celtra Duo, DeguDent; VITA Zahnfabrik) materials before and after cyclic fatigue aging.
Materials and methods: Four groups (n = 22/group) of CAD/CAM fabricated upper incisor crowns were produced. All crowns were luted on metal dies with an adhesive dual-cure resin cement (G-CEM LinkForce, GC Dental). Half of the crowns in each group (n = 11) were statically loaded until fracture, without aging. The remaining crowns were subjected to cyclic fatigue aging for 120,000 cycles (Fmax = 220 N) and then loaded statically until fracture. The fractured models were then visually examined. Scanning electron microsopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) were used to evaluate the microstructure of CAD/CAM ceramic materials. The data were statistically analyzed with two-way ANOVA followed by the Tukey HSD test (α = .05).
Results: Before cyclic aging, there was no statistically significant difference in load-bearing capacity among the four groups (P = .371). After cyclic aging, load-bearing capacity significantly decreased for all groups (P = .000). While the e.max CAD blocks had significantly higher load-bearing capacity (1061 ± 94 N) than both monolithic ceramic crowns (load-bearing capacities of the groups) (P < .05), no significant difference was obtained with the Initial LiSi Block group (920 ± 140 N) (P = .061).
Conclusions: The mechanical performance of monolithic ceramic crowns fabricated from lithium disilicate was befer than zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate after cyclic fatigue aging. Int J Prosthodont 2023;36:e29-e37.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
