Abstract
ABSTRACT The temperature dependence of ageing in the commercial zirconia ceramic is crucial in the applications of dental implants. This study investigated the relationship between structure and mechanical properties of the zirconia dental ceramics and their susceptibility to human body temperature in a prolonged time. Commercial samples were put into exaggerated low-temperature degradation (LTD) as per ISO standard and three-quarters of its ageing temperature to see its effect on LTD in zirconia-based ceramics. The results reveal a negligible effect of LTD on the material at a temperature lower than 134°C, which is the standard LTD temperature for zirconia.
