Abstract

The evolution of dental ceramics over the past four decades has been remarkable in light of the increase in the diversity of materials and fabrication techniques that have become available. As a consequence, the applications and indications for all-ceramic materials continue to expand. The purpose of the present article is to review the evolution of dental ceramics from the various aspects of crystalline phases, glassy matrix, flaws and in vivo performance.
