Aim: Newer zirconia materials may have greater strength degradation under cyclic fatigue with increased yttria and cubic content. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the flexural strength (FS) degradation of newer zirconia materials compared to more traditional tetragonal zirconia materials.
Materials And Methods: The following materials were tested: two 3 mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (3Y-TZP) materials (Lava Plus, 3M ESPE; Katana ML, Kuraray), one 4 mol% partially stabilized zirconia (4Y-PSZ) material (Katana STML, Kuraray), two 5 mol% partially stabilized zirconia (5Y-PSZ) materials (Katana STML, Kuraray; Lava Esthetic, 3M ESPE), and one lithium disilicate material (IPS e.
