Abstract

Among the dental ceramics, zirconia has emerged as a resourceful and promising material because of its biological, mechanical and optical properties, which has certainly accelerated its routine use in CAD/CAM technology for different types of prosthetic treatment. The zirconia systems currently available for use in dentistry include ceramics with a 90% or higher content zirconium dioxide, which is the yttrium, stabilized tetragonal Zirconia (Y3TZP) and glass infiltrated ceramics with 35% partially stabilized zirconia. Zirconia based restorations are quite versatile and can be used for crowns, bridges, implant abutments and fixtures and as post materials. This article reviews the unique property of zirconia and its wide application in dentistry, with more emphasis on prosthetic uses.
