Abstract(s)
The purpose of this study is to identify and compare
the fracture behaviour of the ceramic used in a
single tooth implanted supported, see figure 1. Two different materials are tested in the abutment
(ceramic and titanium). The implant is made of
Titanium. Different fracture behaviour is expected,
depending on the abutment material.
Considering the existence of two or more different
materials, with different biomechanical properties
(thermal and mechanical) and also the adherence
between them (bond strength), it is expectable to
foresee problems under clinical conditions.
Failure of the restoration is dependent on several
factors. Optimum clinical design should require
knowledge of failure mechanism. Besides the
previous mentioned factors affecting failure,
adverse environmental conditions, such as moisture
and other fluids may also contribute to decrease life
of this implant.
