About this document

Fracture Resistance of Y-TZP Bridges by Mostafa Medhat is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This study evaluated the fracture resistance of yttrium oxide partially-stabilized zirconia (Y-TZP) all-ceramic bridges after veneering and mechanical fatigue testing. Three-unit Y-TZP bridge frameworks were subjected to dynamic loading, heat treatment similar to veneering, and veneering with two different ceramics. Their fracture resistance was then tested and compared to untreated frameworks. Heat treatment and veneering reduced fracture resistance compared to untreated frameworks. However, the results in
