Abstract
Glass ceramics’ mechanical properties, esthetics and biocompatibility show an important improvement compared to traditional dental ceramics. Materials such as lithium disilicate ceramics are increasingly popular in dentistry today, due to their improved mechanical performance and natural appearance, an improvement from previous systems based on zirconia. Previous research showed dental ceramics can be sintered with Microwave Hybrid Sintering, in a reduced time consuming process that may improve the mechanical properties of the material.
The objective of this dissertation is to investigate if glass ceramics such as lithium disilicate can be sintered and improved with Microwave Hybrid Sintering.
