College of Dentistry discussed M.Sc. Thesis entitled “Evaluation of Fracture Resistance, Surface hardness and Roughness of Monolithic Ceramic

Crowns Prepared with Different Techniques and Materials: An In Vitro Study”, on Tuesday, 29 April 2025 forwarded by Zahraa Ahmed Salman. The study evaluated the fracture resistance, surface hardness, and roughness of monolithic ceramic crowns fabricated using various materials and techniques. The study aimed to assess these properties in crowns made from lithium disilicate, nano-ceramic, and zirconia reinforced with lithium disilicate, utilizing pressing techniques, computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM), and 3D printing technologies.
