Article Synopsis
- The study uses the finite element method to examine stress distribution in both monolithic and bilayer ceramic crowns, focusing on how variations in the elastic modulus of the core ceramic and cement affect this distribution.
- It was found that the stiffness of the core ceramic and cement significantly influences tensile stress, with higher core stiffness leading to increased stress in low-stiffness cement and a general increase in stress within the cement as its stiffness increases.
- The findings suggest that selecting an appropriate modulus of elasticity for the cement is vital for enhancing the fracture resistance of ceramic crowns in dental applications.
