This study aimed to evaluate the mechanical and bioactive performances of lithium disilicate
glass-ceramic mixtures produced from the SiO 2-Li 2 O-ZrO 2-K 2 OP 2 O 5-Al 2 O 3 system …

Glasses from the ternary system SiO 2-Li 2 O-TiO 2 with increasing titania content replacing
silica were prepared by melting-annealing technique. Structural FTIR, thermal and …

Lithium disilicate (LD) glass-ceramics have adequate mechanical properties and are
considered as a candidate for repairing large bone defects. However, LD glass-ceramic is …

Lithium disilicate (LD) glass-ceramics used for bone repair need to have good mechanical
properties and biological activity. Ion-exchange can lead a significant surficial strengthening …

A recently introduced material for dental restorations, Zirconia reinforced Lithium Silicate
(ZLS), is examined for its properties, in order to be used as a personal accidental …
