Ceramic materials have been widely and increasingly used for dental restorations because
of their excellent esthetic appearance (adequately mimicking dental structures), good …

Background An important tool in materials research, development and characterization
regarding mechanical performance is the testing of fracture toughness. A high level of …

The work is devoted to the study of the effect of lithium doping on the structural and electrical
properties of ferroelectric ceramics Li x Sr 1-x TiO 3. The concentration of lithium dopant …

Objectives The load-bearing capacity of ultra-thin occlusal veneers made of 3D-printed
zirconia were compared to the ones obtained by fabricating these reconstructions by …

Statement of problem Long-term clinical data on the survival of pressed lithium disilicate
glass-ceramic when used with partial coverage restorations and the effect that different …

Statement of problem Long-term clinical data are lacking on the comparison of the survival
of adhesively luted pressed e. max lithium disilicate glass-ceramic complete and partial …

Objectives New lithium silicate/disilicate hot-pressed glass-ceramics are introduced into the
dental market. It is known that the mechanical properties of this material depend on the …

To evaluate the fatigue failure load (FFL), number of cycles for failure (CFF) and survival
probabilities of lithium-disilicate (LD) monolithic crowns manufactured by two processing …

Objective To evaluate the effect of internal roughness and bonding on the load to failure and
structural reliability (Weibull analysis) of a lithium disilicate-based glass ceramic under …

Objective To report the long‐term clinical survival and failure rates of single‐tooth
restorations made of pressable lithium disilicate ceramics (LS2) and CAD/CAM resin …
