Book Ion Exchange Strengthening of a Leucite Reinforced Dental Ceramic

Download or read book Ion Exchange Strengthening of a Leucite Reinforced Dental Ceramic written by Jose J. Villalobos and published by . This book was released on 1997-07-01 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demand for improved dental esthetics has led to an increased use of ceramics in dentistry, specifically all-ceramic restorations. Unfortunately, the brittle characteristics of dental ceramics remain an area of concern and limit their applications. Metal-ceramic restorations have proven successful, but problems associated with the use of metal substructures exist. Numerous all- ceramic systems have been introduced, however strengths equivalent to metal- ceramic restorations have not been obtained. As a result, strengthening techniques are being actively investigated.

Book Strengthening Dental Porcelains by Ion Exchange Process

Download or read book Strengthening Dental Porcelains by Ion Exchange Process written by Humberto Naoyuki Yoshimura and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Porcelains have been used in dentistry for many decades because of their excellent aesthetic qualities, besides other favorable characteristics. Despite these desirable characteristics, porcelain restorations may fail in the oral environment due to fracture. Studies on the clinical success rate of porcelain onlays, inlays and veneers have shown that their fracture rate is relatively high and is among the main reasons for failure of these restorations. The fracture of dental porcelains is a consequence of its brittle nature and low fracture toughness. Porcelains are also highly susceptible to weakening during their lifetime in the oral environment, because the sizes of defects tend to increase by the slow crack growth phenomenon. Therefore, in order to increase the lifetime of porcelain restorations, it is necessary to enhance their overall resistance to crack propagation. Among the methods proposed to strengthen glasses and ceramics, a potential method to improve the mechanical properties of dental porcelains is the chemical strengthening or tempering by the ion exchange process. In this chapter, the effects of chemical tempering on mechanical behavior of dental porcelains are reviewed. Dental porcelains are based on alkali-containing aluminosilicate glass compositions and can have leucite (KAlSi2O6) crystalline particles dispersed in the glassy matrix. The ion exchange process can be carried out by the paste method using KNO3 salt at a temperature that is 80% of glass transition temperature (Tg) of porcelain during a short time (15 to 30 min). In this treatment, the small Na+ ions in the glassy matrix are exchanged by larger K+ ions from the salt, resulting in a K+ concentration profile that results in a steep gradient of residual compressive stress by the ion stuffing effect at the surface region of the porcelain. No significant variations in strengthening have been observed when temperature and time varied around the above indicated values, since the increase in these parameters enhanced the stress relaxation process, which hinders the effect of higher ion interdiffusion. Although few porcelains with high leucite content have no strengthening response to ion exchange process, most dental porcelains can be strengthened and significant increases in fracture toughness (up to around 150%) have been reported. The same level of increase in flexural strength has been observed, but the variability of fracture stress also increases due to the relative small thickness of compressive layer and the decreasing resistance curve effect. The lower reliability is counterbalanced by significant increases of the resistance to slow crack growth phenomenon, leading to higher strength retention after long lifetimes even at low levels of fracture probability. Therefore, it is expected that the application of chemical tempering (strengthening by ion exchange) can improve the lifetime of dental porcelain restorations.

Book An Assessment of Slow Crack Growth in Leucite reinforced Ceramics

Download or read book An Assessment of Slow Crack Growth in Leucite reinforced Ceramics written by Pakawat Chatriyanuyoke and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Purpose: To assess the slow crack growth parameters of a leucite-reinforced dental ceramic under constant stress rate condition and determine the influence of the environment and surface finish on the resulting parameters. Materials & methods: 130 ceramic plates (Pro-CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein) of 0.7 mm thick were prepared and one surface finished with 600 grit SiC slurry. Ten specimens were used to evaluate the inert strength and serve as the control group (Control). The remaining specimens were arbitrarily divided into 3 groups: In air @ ambient temperature (SCA), in water @ ambient temperature (SCW), and etched tensile surface in air @ambient temperature (HFA). All specimens were tested under constant stress-rate biaxial flexural strength in a manner similar to that described in ASTM C 1368. The specimens from each of the 3 experimental group were tested at four different cross head speed of: 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, and 1 mm/min, respectively using a displacement controlled universal testing machine. The inert group was tested in silicone oil at 1 mm/min. The flexural strength and stress rate were determined for each speciman and the SCG parameters n and D were calculated for each of the experimental groups. Results: The resulting SCG parameters for each experimental group were n = 38.19 and D = 143.34 for group SCA, n = -59.32 and D = 145.97 for group SCW, and n = 40.21 and D = 148.65 for group HFA. Group SCW showed the lowest resistance to stress corrosion (n = -59.32) compared to the other groups. The inert strength of the leucite ceramic resulted in the highest mean strength 180.4 MPa. Conclusions: There is no different in SCG parameter (n) from constant stress-rate test between group SCA and HFA for the ProCAD material tested. ProCAD more susceptible to subcritical crack growth when compared to ambient air.

This book provides readers with an interest in medical ceramics with the ability to start making their own glasses and glass ceramics, together with an understanding of the various factors that control the final properties of these medical and dental materials. In addition, the authors describe various industrial problems with current, clinically-used medical glass ceramics and discuss appropriate scientific solutions. Glasses and Glass Ceramics for Medical Applications will appeal to a broad audience of biomaterials scientists, ceramists, and bioengineers, particularly those with an interest in orthopedic and dental applications, as well as scientists and engineers involved in the manufacture of glasses, glazes, enamels, and other glass coatings for the medical materials industry. The book will also be of interest to undergraduate and graduate students in materials engineering and dentistry, and is suitable for use in courses on medical and dental materials.
