The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the effect of staining, glazing, and polishing on the wear behavior of stabilized zirconia with 5 mol% of yttrium oxide (5Y-TZP) opposing 5Y-TZP, leucite-reinforced ceramic (LC), lithium disilicate (LD), and microhybrid composite resin (MCR). Hemispheres of 5Y-TZP were divided into six groups (n = 10) according to the finishing procedure: C (control), S (staining), G (glazing), P (polishings), SG (staining plus glazing), and SP (staining plus polishing). The two-body wear test (2BW) was performed (20 N load, at 2 Hz, until 300,000 cycles). Vertical height loss of hemispheres (VHL) and wear depth of restorative materials (WD) were analyzed using a profile projector and laser confocal microscope, respectively. Data of VHL and WD were analyzed using a generalized linear model by the Wald test and t post hoc test with the Bonferroni adjustment (α = 0.05). The staining, glazing, polishing, and restorative material had a significant effect (p < 0.05) on VHL and WD. Polishing reduced VHL opposing MCR, LC, and LD. There was an increase in WD to G opposing LD and SG opposing MCR. The 5Y-TZP presented the highest wear resistance, while MCR presented the lowest. Polishing was recommended to promote staining durability and decrease wear rates opposing MCR and LD.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
