Statement Of Problem: The ceramic 5-mol% yttria-stabilized zirconia (5Y-ZP) has been developed for dental use in the esthetic zone with greater translucency than 3-mol% yttria-stabilized zirconia (3Y-ZP). However, studies on the wear behavior of 5Y-ZP zirconia against clinically relevant antagonist materials are lacking.

Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the wear behavior of 5Y-ZP zirconia against the antagonists 5Y-ZP zirconia, lithium disilicate, palladium alloy, and human enamel.

Materials And Methods: Flat specimens (n=8) were fabricated from 5Y-ZP zirconia, lithium disilicate, palladium alloy, and human central incisor enamel. A custom wear-simulating device with a sliding pin-on-plate configuration was used for a total of 120 000 wear cycles at 1.6-Hz frequency under a 49-N vertical load while submerged in distilled water at room temperature. The wear volume and maximum wear depth of flat specimens were evaluated with a 3D profilometer. Scanning electron microscopy was used to analyze the characteristics of the worn surfaces.

Results: After wear simulation, the 5Y-ZP zirconia and palladium-silver alloy specimens exhibited the least amount of material loss, both in terms of maximum wear depth and wear volume (0.079 ±0.042 μm, 0.001 ±0.001 mm and 0.637 ±0.307 μm, 0.001 ±0.000 mm, respectively). This was followed by human enamel (6.034 ±1.086 μm, 0.009 ±0.001 mm) and by lithium disilicate, which showed excessive material loss (38.342 ±2.569 μm, 0.213 ±0.024 mm). Scanning electron microscopy revealed variations in wear mechanisms among the materials.

Conclusions: The 5Y-ZP zirconia and palladium-silver alloy exhibited the lowest wear, followed by human enamel and lithium disilicate. Slight grain dislodgement was displayed on worn 5Y-ZP surfaces, while more apparent grain dislodgement and wear grooves were found on lithium disilicate. Plastic deformation of worn palladium-silver alloy accumulated at the end of wear track. Cracks were detected in the human enamel specimens.

Background: E-max is a more aesthetic material than traditional zirconia. In addition, the bond strength of traditional zirconia with adhesive cements is lower. There are not enough studies on how the aesthetic values and bond strength of 5-YZP, the new generation zirconia, compare to e-max and traditional zirconia.

Effects of Different Air Particle Abrasion Protocols on the Biaxial Flexural Strength and Fractography of High/Ultra-Translucent Zirconia.

Materials (Basel)

December 2021

Department of Restorative Dental Sciences, College of Dentistry, King Saud University, P.O. Box 93504, Riyadh 11683, Saudi Arabia.

In this study, the biaxial flexural strength (BFS) and fractography of high/ultra-translucent monolithic zirconia ceramics subjected to different mechanical surface pretreatments were evaluated. A total of 108 disc-shaped samples (12 mm diameter, 1.2 mm thickness) of three zirconia materials (5Y-ZP KATANA Zirconia UTML (ML), 3Y-TZP DD Bio ZX2 (DB), and 5Y-ZP DD cube X2 (DC)) were used.

Translucent zirconia, manufactured by increasing the yttria content, offers improved translucency, but may have a negative effect on esthetic outcomes under clinical conditions such as discolored abutment because of the reflection of the underlying color. The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the translucency parameter and masking ability of 3 mol % yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (3Y-TZP (Katana HT)), 4Y-ZP (Katana STML), and 5Y-ZP (Katana UTML) with those of lithium disilicate (Rosetta SM). Zirconia and lithium disilicate specimens of 10 mm diameters and 0.

Objective: To assess the surface roughness and residual flaws in two translucent zirconia substrates following simulated clinical adjustment and intra-oral finishing/polishing.

Materials And Methods: Specimens were prepared from two translucent (5Y-ZP/8Y-ZP) and one conventional (3Y-TZP) zirconia substrates (n = 84 p/g). Arithmetic mean roughness parameter (R) was determined for all experimental groups at four stages (n = 21 p/g): (1) as-sintered, (2) surface grinding using a zirconia cutting diamond bur, (3) polishing using 1-step, 2-step or 4-step intra-oral polishing kits, and (4) laboratory polishing/glazing.
