Clinical Acceptance of Digitally Produced Zirconia and Metal Post and Cores: Impression Method Impact

Posted: November 20, 2024
This article explores the clinical acceptance of digitally produced zirconia and metal dental posts and cores, emphasizing the pre-cementation phase often overlooked in existing literature. The study investigates the suitability of posts for cementation based on the type of impression: digital versus conventional. Utilizing CAD-CAM technology for customized zirconia and Co-Cr post and cores, the research highlights the superior adaptability and toughness of 3D printed metal posts. Findings reveal a higher acceptance rate for conventionally obtained zirconia posts compared to digitally obtained ones, while no significant difference is found in metal posts. This study underscores the importance of impression method in determining the clinical acceptance of dental posts, offering valuable insights for dental practitioners aiming for optimal treatment outcomes.
