A Clinical Trial of the Impact of Speed and Conventional Sintering on Ultra-thin, Highly Translucent, Multilayered Zirconia Laminate Restorations

March 1, 2023 updated by: Hams Hamed Abdelrahman

Effect of Speed Sintering on Translucency and Microstructure of High Versus Low Translucent Zirconia Veneers: a Randomized Clinical Trial

A Minimally invasive esthetic restorative approach with the advancement of highly translucent multilayered monolithic zirconia ceramic can provide minimal thickness that affords high strength and esthetics without the need for layering porcelain. The effect of sintering conditions on yttria-partially stabilized zirconia is essential for the long-term success of such restorations.

The study aims to evaluate the clinical performance of speed and conventional sintering on ultra-thin, highly translucent, multilayered zirconia laminate restorations with minimum invasive tooth preparation.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in clinical performance
Time Frame: Baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months

Patients will be recalled every 3 months for one year follow up. The clinical evaluation and color measurement will be based on the modified California Dental Association (CDA)/Ryge criteria of evaluation as shown

Examiners will evaluate the zirconia Veneers for the following:

  1. Color match.
  2. Zirconia surface.
  3. Marginal discoloration.
  4. Marginal integrity.
  5. Clinical evaluation of the completed restorations will be performed using a double-blind assessment method
Baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months
