What is it about?

To evaluate the fatigue survival, failure mode, and maximum principal stress (MP Stress) and strain (MP Strain) of resin-matrix ceramic systems used for implant-supported crowns.

Why is it important?

All resin-matrix ceramics crowns demonstrated high probability of survival in a physiological molar load, whereas Shofu Hard and Cerasmart outperformed Enamic and Shofu HC at higher loads. Material fracture comprised the main failure mode.

Perspectives

•Resin-matrix ceramics systems demonstrated high reliability at functional loads. •Resin-matrix ceramic fracture, chipping or catastrophic, is the chief failure mode. •Cracks originated by quasiplastic deformation under compression loading.
