4. 2. On core and bi-layered all-ceramic fixed dental prostheses, design and mechanical properties : studies on stabilized zirconiumdioxide

   Author : Deyar Mahmood Jallal Hadi; Malmö högskola; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Y-TZP; Zirconia; All-ceramic FDPs; connector design; radius; state-of-the-art; CAD CAM; multi-layer technique; veneering ceramic; split-file; over-pressing; dental porcelain; MECHANICAL PROPERTIES;

   Abstract : Loss of teeth can affect a person’s self-esteem, social life, appearance and oral function. Reconstruction of a missing tooth has scientifically been shown to increase self-esteem and quality of life and to maintain oral function. For many patients a fixed dental prostheses (FDP) is preferred, either tooth- or implant-supported. READ MORE
