Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine and compare color differences of pressed lithium disilicate ceramic specimens after repeated firing cycles. An additional objective was to determine and evaluate correlation of CIEDE2000 values analyzed by X-Rite Color i5 Spectrophotometer, VITA EasyShade Advance 4.0 and Adobe Photoshop.
Material And Methods: Tile specimens (N=36) with 8 x 10 x 1.5mm dimensions were prepared by IPS e.max Press lithium disilicate MT Monochromatic ingots and IPS e.max Multi Press lithium disilicate Multichromatic ingots. Specimens were exposed to 7 repeated firing cycles. Color analysis was performed after the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, and 7th firing cycles. CIE L*a*b* values were measured by X-Rite Color i5 Spectrophotometer, VITA EasyShade Advance 4.0 and Adobe Photoshop. CIE DE*2000 (ΔE*00) was calculated to estimate color differences.
Results: Linear regression and multiple comparison analysis (Tukey's HSD test) showed a statistically significant (p<.001) color difference ΔE*00 after multiple firing cycles. Statistically significant differences (p<.05) were also noted in different shade groups and between different instruments used for shade evaluation. Moreover, significant differences (p<.05) were found in interactive effects between different shades tested by different instrument, different shades tested after multiple firing cycles and different instruments after multiple firing cycles.
Conclusions: Lithium disilicate material shows significant color differences after repeated firing cycles tested by three color analysis instruments. Measuring instruments used to evaluate CIE L*a*b* color values showed significant differences in color values analysis, which may lead to altered level of interpretation, particularly to determine perceptibility and clinical acceptability thresholds.

Statement Of Problem: Currently there is no regulatory requirement or international standard for the wear resistance of dental materials and therefore no need to test prior to market launch.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate and compare the total volumetric wear characteristics of milled polymer infiltrated ceramic network (MPICN) and printed polymer resin (PPR) as substrates opposing five antagonists, human enamel (EN), lithium disilicate (LD), zirconia (ZR), MPICN, and PPR, and to evaluate and compare the volumetric wear of these same materials as antagonists.
Material And Methods: Ten of each antagonist for a total of 50 EN, LD (IPS e.

This study aims to investigate the effects of material compatibility, variable cooling rates, and crown geometry on thermal stress development in porcelain-veneered lithium disilicate (PVLD) and porcelain-veneered zirconia (PVZ) dental crown systems, and subsequently anticipate parameters for their optimum performance. An anatomically correct 3D crown model was developed from STL files generated using 3D scans of the experimental crown sample. Next, the viscoelastic finite element model (VFEM) based on the 3D crown model was developed and validated for anatomically correct bilayer PVLD and PVZ crown systems.

Background: Resin cements often require substrate-specific pretreatment. Recently, universal adhesive systems have been introduced, simplifying procedures by eliminating the need for multiple adhesives and offering options that do not require light curing. This study investigated the bonding performance of universal adhesive systems combined with dual-polymerising resin cements on enamel, dentin, zirconia, lithium disilicate ceramics (LDS), and resin blocks.
