Abstract

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the effect of modified framework (MF) design on the fracture resistance of IPS e.max Press anterior single crown after thermocycling and cyclic loading. Materials and methods: Two types of IPS e.max Press frameworks were designed (n = 10); standard framework (SF) with a 0.5 mm uniform thickness and MF with a lingual margin of 1 mm in thickness and 2 mm in height connected to a proximal strut of 4 mm height and a 0.3 mm wide facial collar. The crowns were cemented to resin dies, subjected to 5,000 cycles of thermocycling, and loaded 10,000 cycles at 100 N. A universal testing machine was used to load specimens to fracture, and the modes of failure were determined. Results: The mean and standard deviation (SD) of fracture resistance were 219.24 ± 110.00 N and 216.54 ±120.02 N in the SF and MF groups. Thus, there was no significant difference (p = 0.96). Mixed fracture was the most common failure mode in both groups. We found no statistically significant difference between the groups (p = 0.58). Conclusion: The MF design did not increase the fracture resistance of IPS e.max Press crown. Clinical significance: Framework design is an essential factor for the success of all-ceramic restorations and its modification might be regarded as an approach to increase fracture resistance. Furthermore, the modified design was evaluated in metal–ceramic or zirconia crowns while less attention was paid to the IPS e.max Press crowns.
