Background: Using ceramic veneers for restoration of non-esthetic teeth has
magnified with the increased demand of patient awareness. Several factors
affect prolonged prognosis of ceramic veneers. This study will help to
comparatively evaluate the effect of etching duration and loading conditions
on the resistance to fracture of ceramic veneers. Objectives: To evaluate the
fracture resistance of “Lithium disilicate ceramic veneers” at an angle of 60⁰
after exposure to 5% hydrofluoric acid for 20 secs and 40 secs then
comparative evaluation of the same. Methodology: Study comprises of 12
samples of freshly extracted permanent maxillary central incisors followed
by mounting them in self polymerizing acrylic resin, and preparing butt
joint design tooth preparation. Tooth preparation followe.. Read More»
