Özet

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of pre-ceramic soldering on the marginal and internal fit of 4-unit zirconia fixed dental prostheses (FPDs) that have two abutments and two pontics. 4-unit zirconia frameworks (Zirkonzahn ICE Translucent) (Z Group) and monolithic zirconia (Zirkonzahn Prettau) (M Group) FPDs were manufactured. Groups were divided into two groups (n = 10) control (ZC and MC) and soldering (ZS and MS). Samples of ZS and MS groups were cut into two pieces under cooling water and soldered with a bonding material (DCM Zircon HotBond). The marginal and internal fit of the restorations were measured from 36 points of each sample and cement space volume was calculated using reverse engineering software (Geomagic Design X). The mean and standard deviations were submitted to Generalized Linear Mixed Model (GLMM) analysis (& alpha; = 0.05). Statistical differences between groups before and after pre-ceramic soldering on point measurements were found. In total cement spacing measurements, a significant difference was found amongst all groups (P < 0.05). However, in premolars, a statistically significant difference was found between ZC and ZS groups and MC and MS groups (P < 0.05). All discrepancies after pre-ceramic soldering were found to be lower than before.
