Q

Why’re ceramics so popular

A
  • Used widely because of their optical similarities to teeth
  • can mimic shade, translucency and lustre of tooth structure better than other materials

Q

Disadvantages of ceramics

A

•Brittle in nature (can undergo very little deformation before they fail)

microstructure and defects/flaws play a major role in determining strength

Q

Feldspathic Ceramics (Porcelain)

1
Relative flexural strength?

2
Why is it used in aesthetics?

3
Is it mechanically strong?

A

1
typically 60-80MPa
- relatively weak

2
- Translucent in nature
- Can closely match the shade, translucency and luster of natural dentition

3
- But is low strength and prone to mechanical failures
- Addition of other crystal phases (e.g. fluorapatite) in contemporary materials increases mechanical performance

21
Q

SINTERED ALL-CERAMIC RESTORATION:
ALUMINA-BASED MATERIALS

1
Is it still used?

2
Alumina formula and % added?

A

1
Rarely used system now – but many functioning crowns out there

2
•Alumina is an aluminum oxide, Al2O3
•Typically added in levels of up to 40-50% by weight

22
Q

SINTERED ALL-CERAMIC RESTORATION:
ALUMINA-BASED MATERIALS

Key problems with it?

A
  • shrinkage during sintering leading to dimensional inaccuracies
  • During sintering procedure shrinkage between 10-20% can occur
  • opacity of core necessitates veneering with glassy material to achieve esthetics
