A Comparative Study on Relative Translucency of Four Dental All-Ceramic Core Materials

Article Preview

Abstract:

The aim of this study were to compare the relative translucency of four dental all-ceramic core materialsIPS e.max Press,Zenostar,Lava Zirconia and Upcera Zirconia.All core materials were fabricated into samples at the diameter of 10mm and the thickness of 0.50.02mm.The relative translucency of samples were determined with color difference meter and analysed with SPSS 13.0 software.It was showed that the relative translucency of 4 all-ceramic core materials were statistically different.There was a decreasing order of their relative translucency,IPS e.max PressLava Zirconia ZenostarUpcera Zirconia.IPS e.max Press has the hightest translucency,and it was advisably used to restore anterior tooth.Upcera Zirconia was the most opaque of 4 all-ceramic core materials,and it was suitable for post tooth.
