摘要

Statement of problem. Clinical reports of feldspathic porcelain veneered-zirconia crowns placed on teeth with knife-edge marginal finish lines have recently been presented but with data available for only a limited number of crowns in the anterior maxilla. Purpose. This retrospective study evaluated the clinical success and survival of feldspathic porcelain veneered-zirconia crowns fabricated with knife-edge margins in a private practice. Material and methods. One hundred and two teeth (51 anterior; 51 posterior) were prepared with knife-edge margins and restored with feldspathic porcelain veneered-zirconia crowns. The modified California Dental Association (CDA) criteria were used to clinically evaluate subjects recalled between May and December 2010. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics. Results. The mean follow-up time was 20.9 months (SD, 13.6; range, 10-72). One tooth had to be extracted because of an endodontic problem not related with the restoration, 2 crowns had minor chipping of the veneering porcelain, while no crowns exhibited fracture of the zirconia core. Conclusions. In this retrospective evaluation, feldspathic porcelain veneered-zirconia crowns with knife-edge margins provided clinical performance similar to that reported with other margin designs.
