An overview of zirconia ceramics: Basic properties and clinical applications

TLDR
Clinical evaluations, which have been ongoing for 3 years, indicate a good success rate for zirconia FPDs, and newly proposed zIRconia implants seem to have good biological and mechanical properties; further studies are needed to validate their application.

Solution Combustion Synthesis of Nanoscale Materials

TL;DR: This Review focuses on the analysis of new approaches and results in the field of solution combustion synthesis (SCS) obtained during recent years, emphasizing the chemical mechanisms that are responsible for rapid self-sustained combustion reactions.

Scaffold Design for Bone Regeneration

TL;DR: This focus of this review is on the evolution of these scaffolds as bone graft substitutes in the process of recreating the bone tissue microenvironment, including biochemical and biophysical cues.

Survival of zirconia- and metal-supported fixed dental prostheses: a systematic review.

TL;DR: The frequency of veneer chipping was significantly higher in the zirconia F DPs than PFM FDPs, and as refined processing procedures have started to yield better results in the laboratory, new clinical studies with these new procedures must confirm whether the frequency of racking can be reduced to the level of PFM.

Zirconia as a ceramic biomaterial

TL;DR: This review takes into account the main results achieved up to now, and is focused on the role that microstructural characteristics play on the TZP ceramics behaviour in ball heads, namely mechanical properties and their stability, wear of the UHMWPE paired to TZp, and their influence on biocompatibility.

What future for zirconia as a biomaterial

TL;DR: The aim of this paper is to review and analyze the current knowledge on ageing process and on its effect on the long term performance of implants in order to distinguish between scientific facts and speculation.

Bonding to zirconia ceramic: adhesion methods and their durability

TL;DR: The hypothesis that adhesive bonding methods suitable for glass-infiltrated alumina ceramic can also be used to bond successfully to yttrium-oxide--partially-stabilized zirconia ceramic was partially proved and partially disproved as tribochemical silica coating of YPSZ did not result in a durable resin bond as it does on glass- infiltration alumin ceramic.

The effect of surface grinding and sandblasting on flexural strength and reliability of Y-TZP zirconia ceramic.

TL;DR: The results indicate that sandblasting may provide a powerful technique for strengthening Y-TZP in clinical practice and grinding may lead to substantial strength degradation and reduced reliability of prefabricated zirconia elements, therefore, sandblasted of ground surfaces is suggested.

A systematic review of the survival and complication rates of all‐ceramic and metal–ceramic reconstructions after an observation period of at least 3 years. Part II: fixed dental prostheses.

TL;DR: This systematic review of 5-year survival rates and incidences of complications of all-ceramic fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) and to compare them with those of metal‐ceramic FDPs found them to be similar.
