Abstract
To compare full and partial coverage crowns made with different CAD/CAM leucite reinforced ceramic blocks on fracture resistance and fractographic analysis. Full coverage and partial coverage crowns with finish line at 2 mm and 4 mm above the gingiva for molars made with IPS Empress CAD and Rosetta BM. After fatigue process, the fracture test and fractographic analysis were conducted. Although the fracture resistance of IPS Empress crowns did not show any statistical differences regardless of the design, both the partial coverage crowns fabricated using Rosetta BM showed significantly higher load at break and peak load than the full coverage crown. The crowns made with IPS Empress showed significantly higher fracture resistance than that made with Rosetta BM, regardless of the restorative design. The fracture resistance and fractographic analysis of CAD/CAM leucite reinforced full and partial coverage crowns were influenced by the restorative design of and material type.
