    Feldspar gives the ceramic a natural translucency and forms the main structure. It is a mixture of potassium aluminum silicate (K2O.Al2O2.6SiO2) and ______.

    <p>albite</p> Signup and view all the answers

    Quartz, which is in the structure of silica (SiO2), acts as a filler in the matrix. It provides stability to the mass by preventing shrinkage that may occur as a result of firing process. Since the melting temperature is very high, it helps the restoration keep its shape at high temperatures. Kaolin, also called Chinese clay, is an aluminum hydrate silicate (Al2O3.SiO2.2H2O). It is quite resistant to heat, but it is very opaque and is used very little. Due to its adhesive feature, it acts as a binding agent for quartz and feldspar. It also facilitates hand-processing by giving elasticity to the ceramic dough (slurry). In the composition of the ceramic, besides these abovementioned three main substances, there may also be fluids or glass modifiers (fluxes), intermediate oxides, various color pigments, opacifiers or various agents that enhance the fluorescence property. Oxides, called fluxes, are sodium oxide, potassium oxide and calcium oxide. They reduce the softening temperature of the glass by reducing the amount of crosslinking between the glass-forming elements and oxygen. Iron oxide, nickel oxide, copper oxide, magnesium oxide, titanium oxide, and cobalt oxide are oxides used to give the ceramic the desired color. Zirconium, cerium, tin, and uranium oxides are also used to make the ceramic have the appropriate opacity. The composition of dental ceramics mainly consists of feldspar, quartz and ______.

    Ceramic slurry is obtained by mixing powder and sufficient amount of liquid. Too much liquid causes movement between dust particles, causing deterioration in the powder-liquid mass. The process of removing the liquid binder in the ceramic powder by bringing the particles together is called ______.

    <p>condensation</p> Signup and view all the answers

    The condensed ceramic mass is placed in front of the preheated oven, allowing the remaining water to be removed. If the condensed structure is placed directly in a hot oven, as a result of sudden heating, voids and large fracture areas occur on the restoration. After the preheating process, the ceramic is placed into the furnace and the baking process is started. During firing, ceramic goes through different stages according to the temperature of the furnace: Low-bisque firing, Medium-bisque firing, High-bisque firing. One of the important features that occurs during the firing of the ceramic is its ______, which depends on the particle size of the ceramic powder, condensation, humidity, and the firing temperature.

    <p>shrinkage</p> Signup and view all the answers

    Colorless glass powders applied to the baked ceramic surface to provide a polished surface are called ______ and this process is called “glazing”. The thermal expansion coefficient of the glaze ceramic should be slightly lower than the ceramic mass to which it is applied. If the glaze has a higher coefficient of expansion than dentin ceramic, it cools under radial tension. The resulting stresses tend to form fine cracks on the surface.

    Dental ceramics can be classified in different ways according to baking temperatures, usage areas, translucency levels, microstructures, and manufacturing techniques. Classification according to microstructures of ceramics is the most frequently used. Glassy Ceramics Dental ceramics that mimic the optical properties of enamel and dentin are glassy ceramics. Glasses are formed by the formation of three-dimensional network of atoms and they do not have a regular structure. Glasses in dental ceramics are made from a group of minerals called feldspar and are built on silica (silicon oxide) and alumina (aluminum oxide). Therefore, feldspathic porcelains are subset of ______ glasses. The glasses in Feldspar structure are resistant to crystallization (de-vitrification) during firing, have a long firing temperature range, and are biocompatible. Glassy ceramics are used in veneering of ceramic infrastructures, inlays, onlays, and veneers. Glass ceramics can be produced by mixing the powder and liquid and preparing the ceramic slurry, or they can be produced with the CAD / CAM (Computer Aided Design / Computer Aided Manufacturing - Computer Near East University, Faculty of Dentistry 6 Assoc.

    One of the important features that occurs during the firing of the ceramic is its shrinkage, which depends on the particle size of the ceramic powder, condensation, humidity, and the firing temperature. Generally, this shrinkage is reported to be 30-38% by volume and 11-15% linearly. Ceramics are processed larger in the shrinkage rate predicted according to their type and feature. Colorless glass powders applied to the baked ceramic surface to provide a polished surface are called “glaze” and this process is called “______”.

    In CAD / CAM systems, digital data of the tissues from which the restoration will be produced are obtained primarily by ______ or by scanning the conventional impression / model with the laboratory scanner. While the restoration design is done in computer environment using this data in the CAD unit; the design is obtained by subtracting from a prefabricated ceramic block in the milling device guided by a computer. Different opacity and translucency options are available. In addition, there are also polychromatic blocks, which show opalescence and fluorescence properties and simulate the optical properties of different dental tissues. 4.2 Particle Reinforced (Filled) Ceramics Filler particles are added to the basic glass composition to improve mechanical properties and control optical effects such as color and opacity. Glass ceramics reinforced with ______ The first filler used in dental ceramics is crystalline mineral particles of potassium alumina silicate (SiO2.Al2O3.K2O) structure, called ______. This filler has been added in metal-supported ceramic restorations to ensure that ceramic can be fired successfully on the metal substructure. Ceramics that are thermally compatible with dental alloys are obtained during baking by adding ______ with a higher thermal expansion / shrinkage coefficient of 17-25% compared to feldspatic glasses. The use of ______ for full ceramics was realized with the ______ (Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein) system, which was developed at the University of Zurich in 1983 and introduced to the market in 1990. The most important advantage of this system is that the ______ crystals distributed homogeneously inside the material form a barrier that counteracts the stress that causes the formation of micro-cracks. The wax modeling of the restoration that is desired to be produced in the ______ system is prepared, invested with the phosphate-bonded investment material, and the negative is obtained with the lost wax technique. Ceramic tablets containing 35-55% ______ by mass are placed into the furnace and sent into the mold at 12000C heat and under pressure. The combination of heat and pressure allows the shrinkage of the ceramic to be reduced and to have a higher bending strength. However, 120-140 MPa flexural resistance limited the indications of this ceramic to inlay, onlay and single-unit crowns. In 2006, ______ CAD blocks were developed for use in CAD / CAM systems. Blocks with higher flexural resistance (160-180 MPa) have high (HT) and low (LT) translucency options. The 'Multi' type blocks developed in recent years are produced to provide a more translucent appearance towards the incisal area in the cervical region in order to mimic the optical property differences between the dental tissues. Near East University, Faculty of Dentistry 7 Assoc. Prof. Dr. Özay ÖNÖRAL Glass ceramics reinforced with ______ In all-ceramic restorations, one of the fillers used to strengthen the infrastructure is ______ (Li2Si2O5). The microstructure of ______ consists of very small crystals that are dispersed and interlocked in a versatile way. These crystals increase the durability by preventing the spread of cracks in the material. ______ 2 (Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein) system was developed with the addition of 70% by volume ______ to the felspatic glass structure. In this system, as in ______, the material is sent to the mold by injection method under heat and pressure. The resulting substructure (infrastructure, coping terms can also be used) is veneered with a ceramic whose thermal expansion coefficient is compatible. The difference in the microstructures of ______ and ______ 2 resulted in ______ 2 having a higher bending strength (360 MPa) but lower translucency. ______ 2 can be used in single member crowns and anterior 3 member bridges. In 2005, ______ (Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein), which was strengthened with ______, was introduced to the market. In this restorative material, improved physical properties and translucency in comparison with ______ 2 were achieved. ______ contains 70% ______ crystals embedded in glassy matrix and these crystals are 3-6 μm long. Compared to ______ 2, ______ has smaller crystals in its structure and its bending resistance is reported as 370-460 MPa. ______ is indicated for inlay, onlay, veneers, anterior and posterior crowns, 3-unit anterior and premolar-region bridges, and implant superstructures. The homogeneous distribution of coloring ions in the structure of the material inside the glass structure prevents color pigment errors in the microstructure. Apart from this, different translucency options such as high, medium and low translucency, high and medium opacity increase the aesthetic success of the final restoration. Apart from production under heat and pressure, blocks of ______ ceramics, called ______, have been developed for use in CAD / CAM systems with different color, opacity and translucency options. There are also perforated CAD / CAM blocks for the production of a custom abutment. ______ blocks are partially crystallized (pre-crystallized) called 'blue state' and contain 40% ______ in addition to ______ crystals. Pre-crystallized blocks have a bending resistance of about 130 MPa, easy to mill and take a short time in CAD / CAM systems; it also ensures less wear of the milling tools.
