Overview

Randomized trial assessed clinical performance and patient satisfaction in zirconia and lithium disilicate crowns, highlighting distinct advantages.

Key Points

  • Zirconia crowns had a survival rate of 89.2% after five years, compared to 84.2% for lithium disilicate crowns.
  • Lithium disilicate crowns achieved higher esthetic satisfaction scores, but faced more mechanical issues after five years.
  • This randomized controlled trial involved 240 patients receiving either zirconia or lithium disilicate crowns using CAD/CAM workflows.
  • Findings suggest material-specific recommendations for all-ceramic crowns based on the application and patient needs.
