| Popis: | Statement of problem The predictable nature of the hot pressing ceramic technique has several applications, but no study was identified that evaluated its application to the fabrication of custom implant abutments. Purpose The purpose of this study was to compare the fracture resistance of an experimentally designed pressable metal ceramic custom implant abutment (PR) with that of a duplicate zirconia abutment (ZR). Materials and methods Two groups of narrow platform (NP) (Nobel Replace) implant abutment specimens were fabricated (n=10). The experimental abutment (PR) had a metal substructure cast with ceramic alloy (Lodestar) and veneered with leucite pressable glass ceramic (InLine PoM). Each PR abutment was individually scanned and 10 duplicate CAD/CAM ZR abutments were fabricated for the control group. Ceramic crowns (n=20) with the average dimensions of a human lateral incisor were pressed with lithium disilicate glass ceramic (IPS e.max Press) and bonded on the abutments with a resin luting agent (Multilink Automix). The specimens were subjected to thermocycling, cyclic loading, and finally static loading to failure with a computer-controlled Universal Testing Machine. An independent t test (1 sided) determined whether the mean values of the fracture load differed significantly (α=.05) between the 2 groups. Results No specimen failed during cyclic loading. Upon static loading, the mean (SD) load to failure was significantly higher for the PR group (525.89 [143.547] N) than for the ZR group (413.70 [35.515] N) for internal connection narrow platform bone-level implants ( P =.025). Failure was initiated at the screw and internal connection level for both groups. Conclusions It is possible to fabricate PR abutments that are stronger than ZR abutments for Nobel Biocare internal connection NP bone-level implants. The screw and the internal connection are the weak links for both groups. |
