Off-axis sliding contact reliability and failure modes of veneered alumina and zirconia
Dental Materials, 06/12/09
Santana T et al. - Failure modes for alumina specimens were deep penetrating partial cone cracks and cementation internal surface radial cracks. Y-TZP specimens showed only surface damage with deep penetrating partial cone cracks extending to the veneer core interface, with no cementation surface radial cracking, which overall agrees with clinical finding. Angled sliding contact appears to better simulate oral function.
