Effect of Hydrothermal Degradation on Flexural Fatigue Strength of Various Cubic-Containing Translucent Zirconia

Abstract: Objective The aim of this study is to investigate the fatigue and hydrothermal degradation behavior among the cubic-containing translucent yttrium oxide stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP). Materials and Methods Four groups of commercial Y-TZP (T, ST, XT, and P), containing different amount of cubic crystal, were examined. Artificial aging was accomplished by autoclaving at 122°C under 2 bar pressure for 8 hours. Fatigue simulation parameters were set using an axial 50 N load, a total of 240,000 cycles. Flexural fatigue strength was evaluated. Statistical analysis: Two-way analysis of variance with Tukey's honestly significant difference test was used to determine the difference in fatigue strength values between various type of zirconia materials within control and aging with a significant level of 5%. Weibull analysis was conducted on the fatigue strength data. Results All groups showed the mean flexural fatigue strength had no significant difference in hydrothermally aged specimens compared with specimens without aging (p = 0.154). Group T showed significantly higher flexural fatigue strength followed by group ST, XT, and P. Group XT and P showed no significant difference in strength value (p > 0.05). Group T demonstrated a lower probability of failure than group ST, XT, and P whether with or without aging. Weibull modulus in group T and ST with aging condition was increased and higher than all the experimental groups. Conclusion Cubic-containing zirconia materials (group ST, XT, and P) exhibited lower flexural fatigue strength than non-cubic 3Y-TZP zirconia (group T). However, various cubic-containing translucent zirconia was assumed to have high resistance to hydrothermal degradation.
