Characterization of 3D Printed Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia Parts for Use in Prostheses

The main aim of the present paper is to study and analyze surface roughness, shrinkage, porosity, and mechanical strength of dense yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) samples obtained by means of the extrusion printing technique. In the experiments, both print speed and layer height were varied, accord...
