Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on advancements in the modification of zirconia. Original research articles and reviews are welcome.
In the literature, 3Y-TZP has been conclusively examined, especially with regard to its long-term performance. However, information about novel zirconia formulations (4Y-TZP, 5Y-TZP, …) and their clinical performance is, in comparison, still lacking. Novel zirconia formulations and compositions promise esthetic benefits and possess notable mechanical properties. This Special Issue thus welcomes the submission of research investigating the esthetic and mechanical properties of these novel compositions, as well as their manufacturing with regard to high-speed sintering protocols. The scope of this Special Issue also includes the bonding of advanced zirconia following adequate surface pretreatments and adhesive systems.
With a focus on advanced zirconia modifications, their esthetic and mechanical properties, and their manufacturing and cementation, this Special Issue will supplement the existing literature in this rapidly evolving field.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
