Statement Of Problem: Lithography-based additively manufactured (AM) zirconia has been used to fabricate dental implants and custom barriers for guided bone regeneration procedures. However, studies on the effect of AM zirconia on the biological properties of human osteoblasts are lacking.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the effect of milled and lithography-based AM zirconia on the biological properties of normal human osteoblasts (NHOsts), as well as to compare the chemical composition between the milled and lithography-based AM 3 mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (3Y-TZP) zirconia.
Material And Methods: Three mol percentage yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal disks (Ø6×2-mm) were fabricated using subtractive milling (Priti multidisc ZrO monochrome) (M group) and lithography-based additive manufacturing methods (LithaCon 3Y 210) (AM group) (n=10). NHOsts were exposed to different material extracts (1:1, 1:2, and 1:4) and cytotoxicity, cell migration, cell morphology, and cell attachment biological tests were completed. Additionally, for morphological and chemical analysis, a scanning electronic microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM/EDX) evaluation was completed. Data were analyzed by using 1-way ANOVA and the Dunnett test (α=.05).
Results: Substantial cell attachment and spreading were observed in both material surfaces. The presence of zirconium was evident in both groups, although the percentage of zirconium in the AM group (64.7%) was slightly higher than in the M group (52.6%). When NHOsts were cultured in the presence of the different material eluates, the M and AM groups exhibited similar NHOst viability and migration rates when compared with untreated cells; no significant differences were found (P>.05).
Conclusions: The lithography-based AM zirconia tested showed adequate cytocompatibility without differences when compared with the milled zirconia (M group) specimens. Slight chemical element composition differences were found between milled and lithography-based AM zirconia.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of artificial aging on the fracture toughness and hardness of three-dimensional (3D)-printed and computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) milled 3 mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystals (3Y-TZP).
Materials And Methods: Forty bar-shaped specimens (45 × 4 × 3 mm) were prepared using two manufacturing technologies: 3D printing (LithaCon 3Y 210, Lithoz GmbH, Vienna, Austria; n = 20) and milling (Initial Zirconia ST, GC, Japan; n = 20) of 3Y-TZP. The chevron-notch beam method was used to assess the fracture toughness according to ISO 24370.

This study aimed to assess the suitability of printed zirconia (ZrO) for adhesive cementation compared to milled ZrO. Surface conditioning protocols and disinfection effects on bond strength were also investigated. ZrO discs (n = 14/group) underwent either alumina (AlO) airborne particle abrasion (APA; 50 µm, 0.

Purpose: To evaluate the chemical composition, flexural strength, and Weibull characteristics of milled and lithography-based additively manufactured (AM) zirconia.
Materials And Methods: A virtual design of a bar (25×4×2 mm) was completed using a software program. The standard tessellation language file was used to manufacture all the specimens: 3Y-TZP zirconia (Priti multidisc ZrO monochrome) milled (M group) and 3Y-TZP zirconia (LithaCon 3Y 210) lithography-based AM (CeraFab System S65 Medical) (AM group) bar specimens (n = 20).

Aim: This in vitro study aimed to compare the mechanical performance of 3D printed versus milled zirconia blocks, when subjected to uniaxial compression load, and to investigate the microstructural characteristics of the 3D printed samples, before and after the application of the load.
Methods: Twenty zirconia blocks (5 × 5 × 5mm) were prepared: 10 (tests) were 3D printed with a Lithography-based Ceramic Manufacturing (LCM) printer (Cerafab S65®, Lithoz, Vienna, Austria), and 10 (controls) were milled with a 5-axis milling machine (DWX-52D®, DGShape, a Roland Company, Hamamatsu, Japan). Compression tests were carried out on all samples, using a load cell of 30 kN and crosshead speed of 0.
