Flexural Strength of Translucent Zirconia Materials Produced with Different Multilayer Technologies: An In Vitro Study.

Multilayered zirconia materials produced with different yttria contents by layer have lower flexural strength than those produced with gradient shade technology and the same yttria content for each layer. Therefore, various factors such as the type of prostheses, nesting strategies of prostheses within the zirconia disc, and the desired aesthetical requirements should be considered when selecting the multilayered zirconia materials.
