Optical properties of advanced lithium disilicate
A variety of firing protocols are available for the IPS e.max lithium disilicate (LD) and can be used for new, 'advanced' LD (ALD). However, the impact of firing protocols on the optical properties of ALD is still unknown.The aim of the present study was to evaluate the color difference (ΔE00), the translucency parameter (TP00) and the whiteness index ...

ABSTRACT Objectives Margin design significantly influences endocrown biomechanical performance. Nevertheless, long‐term clinical data comparing margin designs within a singular zirconia‐reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS) system remain scarce. This study reports the 6‐year follow‐up results of a multicenter, prospective, randomized, assessor‐blinded ...

Effects of Different Polishing Protocols on Lithium Disilicate Ceramics [PDF]
Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different polishing protocols on surface roughness and morphology of lithium disilicate ceramics (IPS e.max CAD). Fifty ceramic bars (2.0x3.0x2.5 mm) were produced and randomly divided into five groups (n=10), according to surface treatments: C: Control; Cer: Ceramaster (60 s); CW: cloth ...
