Evaluation of near-field communication technology for labeling dental ceramic crowns: An in-vitro pilot study

An innovative and simple labeling of dental ceramic crowns was developed using surface marking to fabricate NFC-tagged ceramic crowns. Their demonstrated durability and readability during dental laboratory disinfection highlights the potential of this technology for clinical and forensic applications. However, this study evaluates resistance to specific disinfection protocols rather than long-term durability under extended clinical use.
