Abstract

The excellent mechanical properties of zirconia (Y- TZP) allow it to be the choice system for posterior fixed dental prostheses (FDP). However, problems related to porcelain veneer crack persist. The lack of framework support to porcelain and the residual stress of the porcelain veneer are indicated as possible cause. Twenty maxillary 3-unit FDPs with second premolar pontic were fabricated (Ceramil Amanngirbach, Koblach, Austria) to comprise the following groups: 1) Y-TZP even: even framework thickness of 0,5 mm and 9 mm2 connector area; 2) Y-TZP mod: Y-TZP with modified framework (2 mm lingual collar with 3,5 mm height proximal struts) and 12 mm2 connector area). The porcelain veneer (IPS e.max Ceram Transpaclear) was hand layered and the open furnace at 450° C for glaze firing was respect. Forty composite-resin replicas of both first premolar and first molar prepared crowns were fabricated, cemented (RelyX-U200, 3M-Espe), and subjected to cyclic loading in water (1 million cycles or until fracture with load range from 30-300 N, at 2Hz, 3.18 mm radius lithium disilicate indenter) at 37°C. After the fatigue test, a precision diamond saw will cut parallel to occlusal surface to obtain one flat piece with 1 mm of thickness that will be ground in water and polished with diamond suspensions. Fifteen indentations with 10 µm of minimum separation from four different surfaces of each crown will be nanomechanically (TI 950 TriboIndenter) evaluated under dry. The specimen will be loaded to a peak load 4 µN, without hold constant and unload. Elastic modulus (E, GPa) and hardness (H, GPa) will be computed. (AU)
