Advances in Ceramic Materials (Paperback)

Dental ceramics are advanced biocompatible materials used to restore the function and aesthetics of teeth. They include porcelain glass-ceramics and zirconia-based systems valued for their natural tooth-like appearance high strength wear resistance and stability in the oral environment. Dental ceramics are employed in crowns bridges veneers inlays and implant restorations combining precision manufacturing techniques with modern digital workflows like CAD/CAM. Recent innovations focus on improving translucency fracture toughness and bonding making ceramics a cornerstone of modern restorative and aesthetic dentistry.
