Course Summary

In this easy to follow, yet very detailed lecture, Dr. Hassall presents an overview of the three main ceramic materials that are currently in use:

1. Feldspathic layering: Infiltrated glass ceramic.  

2. Polycrystaline ceramic: Zirconia.

3. Pressed glass ceramic: e-max

Dr Dominic Hassall stresses that by understanding the science and the nature of these ceramic materials, the clinician is able to use this knowledge to provide the best restoration suitable to any particular situation.

Parafunction also plays an important role in the decision process and the possibility of chipping can rule out the use of the feldspathic layering in these situations.
