Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to assess how cement layer and veneer thickness affect the load-bearing capacity of teeth restored with hybrid ceramic (HC) and lithium-disilicate glass ceramic (LDGC) occlusal veneers.
- - Researchers used 64 extracted human molar teeth, testing different combinations of cement thickness (50µm or 200µm) and veneer thickness (0.5mm or 1.8mm) for each type of material.
- - Results indicated that thin HC veneers had a better load-bearing capacity than LDGC veneers of the same thickness and were less affected by changes in cement layer thickness.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of restoration bonding and type of preparation on load bearing capacity of a tooth restored with indirect glass ceramic or hybrid ceramic occlusal veneer restoration.
Materials And Methods: Occlusal surfaces of extracted human molar teeth were prepared for indirect occlusal veneers with or without circumferential chamfer. The occlusal veneers were milled either from CAD/CAM hybrid ceramic (HC) Cerasmart (GC), or lithium-disilicate glass ceramic (LDGC) IPS e.
