Abstract
The torsional fracture strength at the interface between a base plate and veneering material was evaluated for three kinds of veneered restoration: porcelain fused to zirconia (PFZ), porcelain fused to metal (PFM), and composite resin veneered metal (CRVM). The metal and zirconia base plate (30×4×0.4 mm) were prepared and these plates were veneered as test specimens using each material to a total thickness of 1.2 mm. Torsional force was applied to each specimen using a rotational speed of 1.0 deg/min until the veneering material underwent fracture or exfoliation. The torsional fracture values were measured and the data were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA. The torsional fracture strength for PFZ, PFM, and CRVM was 3.0, 3.1, and 11.1 N•cm, respectively.
