ClearWear of ceramic-based dental materials
Researchers compared wear rates and failure mechanisms of several ceramic-based dental materials using a laboratory test simulating chewing contact, finding that zirconia showed the lowest wear and lithium disilicate the highest, with microcracking and microplasticity (small-scale plastic deformation) identified as the key material-removal mechanisms.
