Abstract:Objectives: To evaluate the effect of two thermal tempering cycles on marginal accuracy of crowns fabricated from two heat-pressed glass ceramics.
Materials and methods:Twenty-eight ceramic crowns were pressed from glass ceramic materials in two groups (n=14). Group (E): Lithium disilicate IPS e.max Press, Group (C): Zirconia reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS) Celtra Press. Each group was subdivided according to tempering temperature into (T1) 9% and (T2) 5% below pressing temperature of each ceramic. A stereom… Show more
