Fracture Resistance of 3-Unit Zirconia Fixed Dental Prostheses Differing in Wall Thickness Fabricated by Either 3D-Printing or Milling
Although 3D-printed zirconia FDPs still show lower fracture resistance values than their milled counterparts, all tested FDP configurations clearly exceed the clinical reference thresholds and can therefore be recommended for clinical use.
