Translucency evaluation of an ultra-translucent monolithic zirconia and a super translucent multilayer zirconia: a pilot study on the thickness effect [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: The increasing application of zirconia as an aesthetic material has led to an evolution with improvement on its optical properties [1]. Nowadays, zirconia presents a compatible translucency with natural teeth. Depending on the clinical situation, you can choose a more translucent or more opaque zirconia.

Translucency and flexural strength of monolithic translucent zirconia and porcelain-layered zirconia
This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of monolithic translucent TZP with different colors and porcelain-layered TZP by evaluating their colors and strengths. Different mixing ratios of Zpex to Zpex-Yellow as translucent TZP, conventional opaque TZP (TZ-3YB-E) (Tosoh, Tokyo) as a control, and veneering porcelain (CERABIEN ZR, body porcelain ...
