Comparison reveals milled zirconia has superior strength and fewer defects than 3D-printed zirconia, indicating better performance.
• Milled zirconia shows higher flexural strength than 3D-printed overall • Printed 3Y/5Y multilayer zirconia matches flexural strength of milled 3Y/5Y • Printed 5Y zirconia matches the flexural strength of milled 5Y zirconia • Milled zirconia has higher Weibull modulus and fewer defects than printed • Monoclinic phase occurs in 3Y regions; cubic phase only in milled 5Y
