Crystallographic and morphological analysis of sandblasted highly translucent dental zirconia
Zirconia-based restorations are now frequently applied in dentistry, thanks to their esthetics, biocompatible properties, easier and even cheaper fabrication as compared to the conventional porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) restorations [1,2]. Since 2014, more esthetic highly-translucent zirconia has been introduced into dentistry. According to Makhija et al., full-contour restorations made by highly translucent zirconia are becoming the first choice to restore posterior teeth in the US [3].
