One of the significant drawbacks of using zirconium dioxide as a framework for prosthodontic structures is its propensity for breakage. Paradoxically, the higher the optical performance of zirconium dioxide, the more its mechanical durability tends to decrease and vice versa. A detailed analysis of the technological process has uncovered divergent opinions and significant disparities in recommendations concerning the fabrication of zirconium dioxide prosthodontic constructs. There are different recommendations regarding the need for abrasive blasting and regeneration firing. Consequently, conducting an in-depth experimental study on this matter and implementing the resulting findings will significantly contribute to addressing the challenges of prosthodontic rehabilitation for patients utilizing zirconium dioxide.

The current study investigates and compares the biological effects of ultrathin conformal coatings of zirconium dioxide (ZrO) and vanadium pentoxide (VO) on osteoblastic MG-63 cells grown on TiO nanotube layers (TNTs). Coatings were achieved by the atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique. TNTs with average tube diameters of 15, 30, and 100 nm were fabricated on Ti substrates (via electrochemical anodization) and were used as primary substrates for the study.

Artificial N fixation via the electrocatalytic nitrogen (N) reduction reaction (NRR) has been recently promoted as a rational route toward reducing energy consumption and CO emission as compared with the traditional Haber-Bosch process. Nevertheless, optimizing NRR relies on developing highly efficient electrocatalysts. Herein, we report on the reliable and reproducible synthesis of two promising electrocatalysts in either the presence or absence of Ketjenblack (KB), namely, ZrO-ZrN@KB and ZrO-ZrN systems, synthesized through the nitriding of Zr.

Purpose: To analyze the repair effect of glass fiber post combined with zirconia all ceramic crown in tooth defects and explore the relevant factors affecting the therapeutic effect.
Methods: A total of 100 patients(142 teeth) with dental defects admitted to Shandong Provincial Chronic Disease Hospital from January 2018 to January 2021 were selected as the study subjects. They were divided into an experimental group (glass fiber post combined with zirconia all ceramic crown restoration) with 70 patients(98 teeth) and the control group (metal post combined with zirconium dioxide all ceramic crown) with 30 patients (44 teeth).

Objectives: To evaluate the influence of different dental implant materials within the exomass on the image quality in cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Material And Methods: Five pig jaws were scanned using four CBCT devices, first without any dental implants, followed by scans with three dental implants of the same material-pure titanium, titanium-zirconium alloy, and zirconium dioxide. Two fields of view (FOVs) were used for each device to position the implants in the exomass of a small FOV and within a large FOV.
