title: Sintering flaws in Flexoceram inlay porcelain.
abstract: The development of processing flaws within Flexoceram inlay porcelain prior to fracture strength testing was assessed qualitatively. The firing procedure recommended by the manufacturer was used except for the end-firing temperature which was varied. Sintering for 10 minutes produced less porous samples which were better than the manufacturer's recommended time of 9 minutes.
