Özet
Statement of problem. Data are lacking on the fracture resistance of monolithic zirconia inlay-retained fixed partial dentures as a conservative treatment for a single missing tooth. Purpose. The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the fracture resistance of inlay-retained fixed partial dentures produced from 3 different monolithic zirconia materials and based on 2 preparation types and applications with and without thermocycling. Material and methods. A model with missing right and left mandibular first molars was used for different cavity preparations. A tube-shaped cavity and a box-shaped cavity were prepared. Seventy-two epoxy resin casts were prepared from an additional silicone impression. Twenty-four inlay-retained fixed partial dentures from each monolithic zirconia material (Prettau, Zirkonzahn; Katana, Noritake; and Copran, Whitepeaks) were fabricated for each preparation type and cemented to their epoxy model with dual-polymerizing adhesive resin cement; 50% of all specimens were thermocycled for 10 000 cycles. The specimens were subjected to a fracture resistance test using a universal testing machine with a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. Fracture surfaces were examined with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and a specimen from each group was examined for structural changes with differential thermal analysis (DTA). Results. No statistically significant differences in terms of fracture resistance were found among brands with both cavity designs and with and without thermal cycles (P>.05). However, SEM and DTA results showed some changes in monolithic zirconia structure after 1 year of aging. Conclusions. The brands and cavity preparation types for single posterior tooth loss generated similar fracture resistance.
