AbstractZirconia dental ceramics incorporated with inert dental glass (IDG) were fabricated by digital light processing (DLP). The effects of the amount of added IDG on the physical properties and microstructure of sintered samples were investigated. Highly dense zirconia dental ceramic samples with a relative density of 98.9% were obtained by adding different amounts of IDG sintered at 1500°C. With the addition of 1 wt% IDG, the Vickers hardness, fracture toughness, and wear resistance increased to 13.03 GPa, 6.33 MPa m1/2, and 0.03 mg/(mm2 min), respectively. However, with the incremental addition of IDG at 3 and 5 wt%, a slight reduction in Vickers hardness, fracture toughness, and wear resistance was observed. The values recorded were 12.68 GPa, 5.90 MPa m1/2, and 0.05 mg/(mm2 min) for the former, and 11.86 GPa, 5.48 MPa m1/2, and 0.06 mg/(mm2 min) for the latter. Scanning electron microscopy observation suggested that 1 wt% IDG incorporated into zirconia dental ceramic samples resulted in an optimal microstructure, with IDG existing at triple junctions of zirconia grains to form a discrete secondary phase. The broken surface revealed transgranular fracture features. This investigation indicates that adding a proper amount of IDG is an effective method to enhance the properties of DLP‐fabricated zirconia dental ceramics.
