Abstract

Zirconia is widely used as a dental biomaterial in recent years. As zirconia undergoes a transformation toughening mechanism dental zirconia shows increased fracture toughness and bend strength. The disadvantage of zirconia was its opaque appearance resulting in compromised esthetics. To overcome the poor translucency and grayish-white appearance a new translucent zirconia is introduced. New translucent zirconia has been developed to match the strength with improved esthetics. This article aims to review the optical and the Magical properties of the newly developed translucent zirconia.
