Abstract:Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding and airborne particle abrasion using aluminum oxide particles on the flexural strength of a joint between ceramic and cobalt-chromium alloys. Methods: The specimens were cast and welded using TIG, then divided into 6 groups (n = 10) and subjected to blasting with 250 μm, 100 μm, and 50 μm aluminum oxide particles. Ceramic systems were applied to the central part of all specimens. A three-point bending test using a velo… Show more
