TLDR
The In-Ceram technique uses alumina ceramics and glass in a two-step firing procedure to create a high-strength core material for single-tooth restorations as well as small fixed partial dentures.Abstract:
The In-Ceram technique uses alumina ceramics and glass in a two-step firing procedure to create a high-strength core material for single-tooth restorations as well as small fixed partial dentures. Fine-grain alumina particles are sintered to form a porous substructure, which is infiltrated with molten glass. The combination of these two processes gives the material its outstanding properties. The sintering process is almost without shrinkage, providing an excellent fit, while the glass infiltration leaves practically no porosities, resulting in high strength.read more

Marginal and internal fit of all-ceramic CAD/CAM crown-copings on chamfer preparations
A. Bindl,W. H. Mörmann +1 more
TL;DR: The fit of conventional and CAD/CAM all-ceramic molar crown-copings covered the same range of gap width confirming the assumed hypothesis.

All-ceramic fixed partial dentures designed according to the DC-Zirkon technique. A 2-year clinical study.
TL;DR: FPDs made of pre-sintered HIP ZrO2 core material veneered with a compatible ceramic is an acceptable alternative in the fabrication of FPDs with the extensions investigated in this study, within the limitations of this 2-year clinical follow-up study.

A comparison of the marginal fit of In-Ceram, IPS Empress, and Procera crowns.
TL;DR: There were no significant differences among the various stages of the crown fabrication: core fabrication, porcelain veneering, and glazing, but the facial and lingual margins exhibited significantly larger marginal discrepancies than the mesial and distal margins.
