Book Description
In the early 1980s the industrialization of products based on the osseointegration principle discovered by Professor Per-Ingvar Brånemark started. The industrialization system has since gone through digitalization and automation, where now computer-aided imprisoning, design, and milling are standard features of a highly flexible production process for customized products. Lab production and central production are two ways of producing dental products. The central production principle offers the potential for better economy of scale and turnover of products, and the local dental lab can offer a higher degree of customization and personal service. Quality of dental products has always been of central importance and continues to grow. New technology and a highly digital treatment process are open for even better quality by the use of production simulations and tolerance analysis in all parts of the manufacturing process.

Book Description
Titanium and titanium alloys are considered standard materials for dental implants with very well documented, high rates of success and survival. Potential immunologic and aesthetic drawbacks associated with titanium implants have resulted in the development of alternatives like zirconia-based dental implants. Zirconia seems to be a suitable implant material because of its tooth-like color, mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and low plaque affinity. However, the use of zirconia in clinical implant dentistry is still controversial. The aim of this chapter is to review clinical and research articles conducted on zirconia dental implants, and to provide information on zirconia dental implant osseointegration, mechanical strength, and microbiology. Compared to titanium-based dental implants zirconia implants show promising results in clinical studies. However, there are a limited number of long-term studies on the outcome of zirconia implants and additional clinical research needs to be done to fully appraise zirconia-based dental implants.

Book Description
Feldspathic porcelains, leucite, and lithium disilicate glass-ceramics are important materials used in restorative dentistry for their biocompatibility, excellent aesthetic properties, good mechanical strength, and relative ease of use. As a general rule in clinical practice, the choice of material should be dictated by the specific clinical situation. It depends on the space available to build the aesthetic and functional restoration, but also on the nature of the underlying tooth or restorative structure. The best aesthetic results are obtained with feldspathic porcelain restorations directly resin-bonded to the tooth, whereas the best function is obtained with the stronger and tougher fully anatomical or veneered glass-ceramic crowns and bridges. The main limitation with these ceramics is their insufficient strength for use as posterior crowns and bridges. Possible means to obtain aesthetically pleasing and long-term performing posterior restorations are the development of stronger glass-ceramics, the use of translucent colored zirconia, or the use of the new class of more elastic hybrid polymer-ceramic materials.

Book Description
Tooth defects and missing teeth are common oral diseases that threaten the patient’s health, aesthetics, and self-confidence. Prosthodontics is a dental specialty with a long history of providing artificial prostheses to restore or replace the damaged or missing teeth and dentition of patients. Based on type and degree, there are three main categories of tooth damage: tooth defect, partial edentulism, and complete edentulism. Various prosthetic treatments are available for restoration, and each of them has its specific advantages and limitations. This means thect, the patient’s oral and general health condition, and the individual’s expectation. In thiat the decision to pursue prosthetic treatment should be made by fully understanding the characteristics of the defs chapter, background knowledge of the characteristics of tooth defects and edentulism are introduced in combination with commonly used prostheses. Despite the fact that there are no omnipotent prostheses, some general guidelines of prostheses selection are given.

Book Description
The mechanical reliability and aesthetic appearance of ceramic dental prostheses are strongly influenced by the presence of defects. When several processes are used during fabrication of ceramic dental prostheses, additional defects are unavoidably introduced in each process step; these are in addition to the ones that already exist in raw materials. To avoid the degeneration of material performance by the accumulated defect population, process optimization is needed to minimize the defects introduced. Standardized mechanical evaluations are usually performed on samples with carefully prepared surfaces in order to minimize the influence from the defects usually induced by fabrication processes. The results from such mechanical evaluation indicate the strength level that is achievable by the material with the given population of bulk defects. In order to avoid a reduction in the performance of the ceramic material by the additional defects normally induced by the fabrication process, it must be understood how these defects are introduced, and solutions must be found to reduce their size and frequency through modifications of the material and processes. The aim of this chapter is to elucidate the sources of defects that are common for ceramic dental prostheses and to determine how to minimize them.

Book Description
This chapter reviews the structure, mechanical properties, and biocompatibility of load-bearing ceramics used in dentistry. The development of this class of ceramic biomaterials is traced from the late sixties when alumina was introduced in dentistry. The literature on both polycrystalline and single crystal alumina dental implants is reviewed. The use of alumina declined when zirconia-toughened ceramics were introduced in orthopedics in the eighties. The use of yttria partially-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (Y-TZP) in dentistry allowed the production not only of dental implants and abutments, but also a broad range of load-bearing fixed partial dentures, such as multi-unit bridges and crowns, thanks to the development of CAD/CAM technology. Today, the trend is to use alumina and zirconia ceramics for making more aesthetic parts by improving their optical translucency.
