Abstract

Prosthetic crowns are made in accordance with the principles of clinical procedures while taking into account the rules of endurance, biocompatibility, and aesthetics. Depending on the biomaterial and manufacturing technology, crown frameworks are veneered with an appropriate set of ceramics with selected thermal expansion. The veneering layers responsible for tribological cooperation in occlusal contact should properly adhere to the framework. The aim of the research is to conduct the microscopic and EDS chemical analysis to evaluate the process of shaping veneering layers on frameworks produced using new digital technologies, i.e. the technology of milling and laser sintering. The research material consists of specimens produced in perpendicular cross-sections through the layered structures of metal-ceramic, ceramic-veneered glassceramic, and zirconium crowns. The microscopic examinations were carried out using the specimens and included the elemental EDS analysis performed on the surfaces and in certain points. The structures of metal and ceramic frameworks, ceramic veneering layers, and adhesive zones were determined.
