Translucency of dental porcelains.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The translucency of comparable shades of five dental porcelains was determined. Both direct transmittance and total transmittance were measured at wavelengths of 400-700 nm. For 1 mm of porcelain, the values for direct transmittance were low and averaged 0.13 percent, whereas the values for total transmittance averaged 26.8 percent. Transmittance increased with increasing incident wavelength. These results indicated a high degree of light scattering.

Highly-translucent, strong and aging-resistant 3Y-TZP ceramics for dental restoration by grain boundary segregation.
Latest trends in dental restorative ceramics involve the development of full-contour 3Y-TZP ceramics which can avoid chipping of veneering porcelains. Among the challenges are the low translucency and the hydrothermal stability of 3Y-TZP ceramics. In this work, different trivalent oxides (Al2O3, Sc2O3, Nd2O3 and La2O3) were selected to dope 3Y-TZP ceramics. Results show that dopant segregation ...
متن کاملMasking power of dental opaque porcelains.
A technique was developed to qualify the masking power of undiluted opaque dental porcelain by dilution of opaque powder with a clear glaze powder and by extrapolation of quantitative data gathered by reflectance spectrophotometry. Quantification of reflectance data was made on dilute opaque porcelains using the scattering and absorption coefficients in the Kubelka-Munk equation. Qualitative co...
متن کاملInvestigation on the Tribological Behavior and Wear Mechanism of Five Different Veneering Porcelains
OBJECTIVES The primary aim of this research was to investigate the wear behavior and wear mechanism of five different veneering porcelains. METHODS Five kinds of veneering porcelains were selected in this research. The surface microhardness of all the samples was measured with a microhardness tester. Wear tests were performed on a ball-on-flat PLINT fretting wear machine, with lubrication of ...
متن کاملThe colors of mixtures of dental opaque porcelains.
The colors of mixtures of dental opaque porcelains and modifiers were measured with use of the CIE L*a*b* uniform color space. Mixtures of dental porcelains were tested to duplicate the range of human tooth colors. Vertical movements in the yellow and blue directions were obtained. Horizontal movements in the red and green directions were achieved. Reflectance measurements were made with use of...
متن کاملLeucite content of selected dental porcelains.
Leucite is a major crystalline component of dental porcelains. The presence of tetragonal leucite in dental porcelains increases their coefficients of thermal expansion due to its high coefficient of thermal expansion (20-25 x 10(-6)/degrees C). This is particularly useful for those porcelains designed for bonding to precious metals and nickel alloys. The purpose of this study was to determine ...
