No all-ceramic restoration has been shown to have a life span equivalent to that of metal-ceramic restorations.
Both types of ceramic materials have potential as hard, wear-resistant coatings.
Considerable variation in ceramic fiber composition can be achieved by varying cure conditions and pyrolysis atmosphere.
The successful outcome of ceramic-on-ceramic artificial joint prostheses may be attributed to the low biological activity of ceramic particles, as evidenced here.
The authors advocate revision with ceramic-on-ceramic couplings after ceramic liner fracture.
Since the normal stresses concentrate along a narrow ceramic layer for ceramic-rich or metal-rich compositions, a balanced in-plane material composition distribution of ceramic and metal would be useful to avoid probable local ceramic fracture or damage.
The results of this study indicated that metal-ceramic strips are sensitive indicators of stress development caused by a thermal contraction mismatch; however, the magnitudes of the residual deflections do not necessarily correlate with the stress magnitudes in the ceramic.
Thus, a substantial portion of ceramic assemblages that have been interpreted as ‘trash’ may, in fact, represent important elements of the technology of ceramic‐using societies.
Different island contexts, which cause post-depositional chemical transformations in ceramic sherds, do not hinder the provenance assignments.
This pilot evaluation provides evidence 1) for an effective and innovative strategy to reduce lead exposure from LGCs and 2) of the feasibility of substituting lead-free alternative cookware for traditional ceramic ware in a rural indigenous community, when delivered in a culturally appropriate manner with health education.
They have the potential of replacing the conventional ceramic materials, due to theire flexible nature.
This study suggests that residual PFOA is not completely removed during the fabrication process of the nonstick coating for cookware.
These findings may have a significant impact on ceramic engineering.
SIGNIFICANCE Ceramic cleaning methods after try-in procedures have a significant influence on the resin-ceramic bond strength.

Recently, scientists have shown that by eliminating the defects, a new, refined ceramic material — polycrystalline ceramic — can be produced.
All-ceramic restorations may have limitations when used in combinations with other treatment modalities.
These innovations made possible to counteract the general decline in consumers interest towards non-stick aluminium cookware, due to news – later proved unfounded – about the alleged toxicity of PTFE, having these products a good market success.
Nonetheless, patients considering ceramic-on-ceramic bearings should be counseled with regard to this phenomenon.
This, together with results from sequential runs with the same ceramic sample, suggests that the vacancies in the ceramic materials are intrinsic to their synthesis and do not result from radiation damage, as has been suggested.
