Biaxial Flexural Strength of Lithium‐Based <scp>CAD</scp> / <scp>CAM</scp> Dental Glass‐Ceramics
All tested ceramics exceeded the ISO 6872:2015 minimum BFS threshold of 300 MPa. This confirms their suitability for single-unit restorations. Unbranded lithium disilicate ceramics provide acceptable mechanical reliability. Their variability in composition and lack of regulatory oversight require caution in clinical applications.
