title: [Tensile strength of dental porcelains].
abstract: Flexural, compressive and tensile strength as well as the modulus of elasticity of 15 different dental ceramics were evaluated. Conventional dental ceramics differed insignificantly in their mechanical properties. By testing new products like Cerec 2 and especially In-Ceram there was found an evident increase in inner strength. For comparison the strength of some other new ceramics as Dicor increased slightly related to conventional ceramics.
