This study investigated the shear bond strength (SBS) between veneering porcelain and zirconia substructure using lithium disilicate glass-ceramic as a liner. The mineral phases and microstructures of lithium disilicate glass-ceramic at temperature range of 800-900°C were preliminarily investigated. SBSs of porcelain-veneered zirconia specimens with and without lithium disilicate glassceramic liner fired at the same temperature were determined. Results showed that SBSs of veneering porcelain and zirconia with lithium disilicate glass-ceramic liner was notably increased (p<0.05). Specimens from the group with the highest SBS (59.7 MPa) were subject to thermocycling up to 10,000 cycles and their post-thermocycling SBSs investigated. Though weakened by thermocycling, SBSs were above the clinically acceptable limit (25 MPa) of ISO 9693. Fractographic analysis revealed mixed cohesive and adhesive failures. It was concluded that lithium disilicate glass-ceramic is a potential liner which generated high SBS between veneering porcelain and zirconia.

Statement Of Problem: The effect of food-simulating solvents (FSSs) on the staining susceptibility and mechanical properties of partially and fully crystallized lithium disilicate glass-ceramics (LDGCs) remains unclear.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the color change, hardness, flexural strength, and reliability of LDGCs exposed to FSSs.
Material And Methods: Two machinable LDGCs, partially crystallized (IPS e.

Background: Short clinical crowns/abutments (SCC) pose a challenge in achieving adequate retention. Auxiliary retentive features (ARF), such as grooves, are commonly employed to enhance retention. The marginal gap (MG) and internal fit (IF) of restorations are critical factors influencing clinical success.

Ceramic restorations have become a cornerstone of modern dentistry. Color stability is crucial for dental ceramics to maintain the esthetic appearance of restorations over time. Given the widespread consumption of staining agents like coffee, tea, and cola, this study aimed to assess the color stability of three ceramics after thermocycling in different solutions.
