Abstract:
Nowadays, two of the most used dental ceramic materials alumina based on Al2O3 and zirconia-based on ZrO2 have been investigated regarding heating treatment process influences on manufacturing dental ceramic core for applied veneer and glazer in the dental laboratory. It was noticed that alumina ceramic is more affected at morphological level by the thermal process, predicting a grain size diameter control to a decreasing value, less or about dG = (1.137 ± 1.018) µm and almost constant pore diameter size dP ∿ 2 µm. Affected depth inside the material of alumina core caused by the thermal process, was estimated d = 7.40 ± 0.51µm. Smaller size for zirconia grains (morphologic not affected by the heating temperature process conditions involved in our study, just on structural level) is predicting modeling of alumina surface with zirconia acting as a grain stopper for the cooling period.
