Test of Relative Translucency for Four All-Ceramic Core Material after Veneering Ceramic

Article Preview

Abstract:

Objective: To study the relative translucency of 4 veneered and glazed all-ceramic systems core material, including Vita In-Ceram Alumina, Vita In-Ceram Zirconium, Ivoclar Vivodent Empress and Colored Zirconia. Methods: Under standard black and write background, the surface light reflectivity of 4 veneered all-ceramic systems core material was determined with contact color difference meter, and the ratio of Yb /Yw was calculated. Results: After veneered, the relative translucency of 4 core materials all declined, and ranged from 0.8015 of Colored Zirconia to 1.00 of In-Ceram zirconia, among of that Empress II and Colored Zirconia were most transparent. Conclusion: Among the groups, there is no significant difference between Empress II and Colored Zirconia(IL1,IL2,IL3). Compared with Vita In-Ceram Alumina and Vita In-Ceram Zirconium, Vita In-Ceram Alumina(AL1) has significant difference. There is no significant difference between Vita In-Ceram Zirconium and Vita In-Ceram Alumina(AL2,AL3,AL4).
