Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the fracture strength of the zirconia monolithic all-ceramic crowns according to the thickness(0.5 mm, 0.8 mm, 1.1 mm) and IPS Empress II ceramic crown of 1.5 mm thickness. Material and method: Eight crowns for each of 3 zirconia crown groups were fabricated using CAD/CAM system(Kavo, Germany) and eight Empress II crowns were made from silicone mold and wax pattern. Each crown group was finished in accordance with the specific manufacturer s instruction. All crowns were luted to the metal dies using resin cement and mounted on the testing jig in a universal testing machine. The load was directed at the center of crown with perpendicular to the long axis of each specimen until catastrophic failure occurred. Analysis of variance and Tukey multiple comparison test(p<.05) were applied to the data. Results and Conclusion: 1. The fracture strength of the zirconia monolithic all-ceramic crown was higher thickness increased(p<.05). 2 The fracture strength of 1.1 mm thickness zirconia monolithic all-ceramic crown was higher than the fracture strength of 1.5 mm thickness IPS Empress II crown(p<.05). 3. The fracture strength of 0.5 mm thickness zirconia monolithic all-ceramic crown exceeded maximum occlusal forces.

In this study, We tried to find out the fracture strength of zirconia coping all ceramic crown and collarless porcelain fused gold alloy crown as the compared group. Each of the collarless porcelain fused gold crown and zirconia all ceramic crown has been produced specimen 10 each. And after pasting them on the steel jig, it had load given at porcelain incisal edge by 130$^{\circ}$ and measured fracture strength by Universal Testing Machine and then We have results from that. 1. The average value of fracture strength suggested 950.49 N at collarless porcelain fused gold alloy crown, 656.81 N at zirconia coping all ceramic crown. 2. Fractured pattern showed that the whole of labial part was exposed in collarless porcelain fused gold crown, but porcelain of margin part did not show fracture in advance. In the practice, the concern that collarless might cause fracture strength to be weaken does not matter, we concluded zirconia all ceramic crown made fracture that only a part of labial porcelain was fractured. The combination of zirconia all ceramic crown and turned out to be excellent.

PURPOSE. This in vitro study aimed to analyze and compare the reproducibility of zirconia and lithium disilicate crowns manufactured by digital workflow. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A typodont model with a prepped upper first molar was set in a phantom head, and a digital impression was obtained with a video intraoral scanner (CEREC Omnicam; Sirona GmbH), from which a single crown was designed and manufactured with CAD/CAM into a zirconia crown and lithium disilicate crown (n=12). Reproducibility of each crown was quantitatively retrieved by superimposing the digitized data of the crown in 3D inspection software, and differences were graphically mapped in color. Areas with large differences were analyzed with digital microscopy. Mean quadratic deviations (RMS) quantitatively obtained from each ceramic group were statistically analyzed with Student's t-test (${\alpha}=.05$). RESULTS. The RMS value of lithium disilicate crown was $29.2\;(4.1){\mu}m$ and $17.6\;(5.5){\mu}m$ on the outer and inner surfaces, respectively, whereas these values were $18.6\;(2.0){\mu}m$ and $20.6\;(5.1){\mu}m$ for the zirconia crown. Reproducibility of zirconia and lithium disilicate crowns had a statistically significant difference only on the outer surface (P<.001). The outer surface of lithium disilicate crown showed over-contouring on the buccal surface and under-contouring on the inner occlusal surface. The outer surface of zirconia crown showed both over- and under-contouring on the buccal surface, and the inner surface showed under-contouring in the marginal areas. CONCLUSION. Restoration manufacturing by digital workflow will enhance the reproducibility of zirconia single crowns more than that of lithium disilicate single crowns.

PURPOSE. This study was to evaluate the marginal fit of two CAD-CAM anatomic contour zirconia crown systems compared to lithium disilicate glass-ceramic crowns. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Shoulder and deep chamfer margin were formed on each acrylic resin tooth model of a maxillary first premolar. Two CAD-CAM systems (Prettau$^{(R)}$Zirconia and ZENOSTAR$^{(R)}$ZR translucent) and lithium disilicate glass ceramic (IPS e.max$^{(R)}$press) crowns were made (n=16). Each crown was bonded to stone dies with resin cement (Rely X Unicem). Marginal gap and absolute marginal discrepancy of crowns were measured using a light microscope equipped with a digital camera (Leica DFC295) magnified by a factor of 100. Two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and post-hoc Tukey's HSD test were conducted to analyze the significance of crown marginal fit regarding the finish line configuration and the fabrication system. RESULTS. The mean marginal gap of lithium disilicate glass ceramic crowns (IPS e.max$^{(R)}$press) was significantly lower than that of the CAD-CAM anatomic contour zirconia crown system (Prettau$^{(R)}$Zirconia) (P<.05). Both fabrication systems and finish line configurations significantly influenced the absolute marginal discrepancy (P<.05). CONCLUSION. The lithium disilicate glass ceramic crown (IPS e.max$^{(R)}$press) had significantly smaller marginal gap than the CAD-CAM anatomic contour zirconia crown system (Prettau$^{(R)}$Zirconia). In terms of absolute marginal discrepancy, the CAD-CAM anatomic contour zirconia crown system (ZENOSTAR$^{(R)}$ZR translucent) had under-extended margin, whereas the CAD-CAM anatomic contour zirconia crown system (Prettau$^{(R)}$Zirconia) and lithium disilicate glass ceramic crowns (IPS e.max$^{(R)}$press) had overextended margins.

이 연구의 목적은 파절강도와 반투명도 측정을 통해 Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM)으로 제작한 유전치 지르코니아 전장관의 임상적 적용 가능성을 확인하는 것이다. 기성 유전치 모형 중 #61을 스캔하여 얻은 3차원 형상 데이터로 CAD 디자인 프로그램을 이용하여 전장관을 디자인하고, 지르코니아 블록으로 CAM 밀링 기계를 이용하여 전장관을 제작하였다. 지르코니아 전장관은 두께에 따라 0.3, 0.5, 그리고 0.7 mm의 3군으로 나누어 1.0 mm 두께의 레진 전장관과 파절강도를 비교하였다. 파절강도는 만능시험기를 이용하여 30° 각도에서 1 mm/min 속도로 절단면에 하중을 가하여 측정하였다. 반투명도는 가로와 세로가 7.0 mm, 그리고 두께가 각각 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 mm 인 사각형 지르코니아 시편을 제작하여 분광측색장치로 측정하였다. 파절강도 측정 결과 지르코니아 전장관은 두께가 증가할수록 파절강도가 높아졌으며 모든 두께의 지르코니아 군에서 대조군인 레진 전장관보다 파절강도가 높았다(p < 0.05). 반투명도는 0.3 mm 군에서 가장 높았으며 0.5, 0.7 mm로 두께가 증가할수록 감소하였다(p < 0.05). CAD/CAM으로 제작한 지르코니아 전장관은 개별 치아에 맞추어 얇게 디자인 및 제작 가능하며, 얇은 전장관을 이용한 수복은 임상적으로 치아 삭제량과 치수노출 위험성 감소 뿐만 아니라, 더 심미적인 수복을 가능하게 해줄 것이다.

CAD/CAM을 이용하여 보철물을 제작할 경우 교합 접촉점의 위치, 면적, 형태를 원하는 대로 조절할 수 있으므로 보다 기능적인 교합의 부여가 가능하다. 또한 전통적인 Casting 기법을 이용한 주조금속 보철물이나, Porcelain의 축성을 통해 제작된 보철물에 비하여 제작과정 중의 오차가 감소하여 우수한 교합 정확도를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 기대되고 있다. 그리고 최근 소개되고 있는 CAD/CAM system에는 가상 교합기 기능이 추가되어 단일 수복물의 설계에서도 상악에 대한 하악의 운동을 재현함으로써 폐구 운동 뿐만 아니라 전/측방 운동시의 교합간섭을 고려할 수 있게 되었다. 그 동안 zirconia를 이용한 보철물의 변연 및 내면 적합도에 대한 연구는 많이 이루어졌으나 CAD/CAM을 이용해 설계된 zirconia crown의 교합 적합도에 대한 연구는 많이 이루어지지 않았다. 따라서 본 증례에서는 총 5명의 환자에서 CAD/CAM을 이용하여 제작된 7개의 지르코니아 크라운을 대상으로, 처음 설계된 zirconia crown의 교합 접촉점과 조정과정을 거쳐 구강 내 시적 후에 제작된 모델을 스캔하여 획득된 교합 접촉점을 비교하여 보철물의 정확도를 평가하고 교합조정의 양상을 파악해 보고자 하였다. 지르코니아 크라운에서 이루어진 교합조정은 대부분 기능교두 및 사면부위에서 이루어졌으며 15 - $60{\mu}m$의 분포를 보였다. CAD/CAM을 이용하여 제작된 지르코니아 크라운에서 어느정도의 교합조정은 불가피한 과정이며 이에 따른 물성저하를 보상하기 위한 추가적인 과정이 필요할 것이다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the fracture strength of the zirconia monolithic all-ceramic crowns according to the thickness (0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1.1mm) and metal-ceramic crowns (1.0mm, 1.5mm) Material and method: Twelve crowns for each of 3 zirconia crown groups were fabricated using CAD/CAM system (Kavo, Germany) and twelve crowns for each of 2 metal-ceramic crown groups were made by the conventional method. All crowns were luted to the metal dies using resin cement. Half of the specimens were exposed to thermocycling ($5-55^{\circ}C$, 1 Hz) and cyclic loading (300,000 cycles, 50N). Subsequently, all crowns were mounted on the testing jig in a universal testing machine. The load was directed at the center of crown with perpendicular to the long axis of each specimen until catastrophic failure occurred. Analysis of variance and Tukey multiple comparison test (P<.05) were used for statistical analysis of all groups, and paired t-test (P<.05) was followed for statistical comparison between each groups' fracture load before and after cyclic loading. Results: 1. The fracture strength of the zirconia monolithic crowns and the metal-ceramic crown increased as thickness increased (P<.05). 2. The cyclic loading and thermocycling significantly decreased the fracture strength of the zirconia monolithic crowns (P<.05). 3. The standard deviation of fracture strength of the zirconia monolithic crowns was very low. Conclusion: The fracture strength of the zirconia monolithic crowns for the posterior area tends to be higher with thickness increased and 0.8mm or over in thickness is recommended to have similar or over the fracture strength of metal-ceramic crowns.

Fabricating a surveyed prosthesis beneath an existing partial removable dental prosthesis (PRDP) is a challenging and time-consuming procedure. The computer-aided design/computer-assisted manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology was applied to fabricate a retrofitted, surveyed zirconia prosthesis to an existing PRDP. CAD/CAM technology enabled precise and easy replication of the contour of the planned surveyed crown on the existing abutment tooth. This technology ensured excellent adaptation and fit of newly fabricated crown to the existing PRDP with minimal adjustments. In this case report, a seventy-year-old male patient presented with fractured existing surveyed crown. Because the existing PRDP was serviceable, new crown was fabricated to the existing PRDP.
