Description
Hunaida Tayeb and colleagues compare three-dimensional printed crown materials with milled ones for strength and hardness, in a twenty twenty-five study. Printed crowns are now used as lasting tooth repairs, not just trial pieces. The team tested three printed resins and three milled blocks made for final crowns. They measured filler share, bending strength, and two kinds of hardness.
Milled blocks bent far less easily, with much higher strength scores than printed resins. Their hardness was also two to four times higher. The printed resins all scored near the same hardness. Filler share tracked with several strength measures. The authors say milled blocks still lead on raw strength, a fact dentists should weigh when picking materials.
