Excerpt from The Science of Ceramic Machining and Surface Finishing II Machining and surface finishing operations play a vital role in the production and reliable use of ceramics. It is essential, therefore, that the full scope of this technologically important subject be periodically reviewed and evaluated. One of the most effective ways of accomplishing this is through meetings, such as this Second Symposium on Ceramic Machining and Surface Finishing. These meetings provide the necessary forum for the direct exchange and discussion of new data, recently developed techniques, and advances in our understanding of underlying principles. This Symposium, in particular, has focused on both the scientific and technological advances in ceramic machining and related topics. The interaction that has occurred at this meeting between science and technology will provide many direct benefits and, hopefully, will act as a stimulus for further progress. Through publication of these proceedings, the information presented at this symposium, together with any derived benefits, can be shared with the scientific and industrial community at large. The National Bureau of Standards is pleased to be responsible for this publication, and to have joined with the Air Force Office of Scientific Research, the Office of Naval Research, and the American Ceramic Society in sponsoring the symposium.

The surface finish of ceramic restorations is important with respect to esthetics, strength, wear of opposing teeth. Hence, glazing has always been advocated as the last surface treatment before final cementation. It is a common practice for clinicians to adjust the porcelain surfaces of dental prostheses. Various options are available like unglazing, polishing and glazing. The change in surface roughness after different surface finishing techniques has attracted the attention of prosthodontist regarding wear of opposing teeth, the strength, plaque retention and appearance of restorations.Currently there exists a considerable controversy over applying the best method to achieve the smoothest and strongest porcelain restoration. In the literature contrasting opinions have been reported by different research groups regarding testing different ceramic materials and surface finishing techniques i.e. auto glazing, over glazing and polishing with a variety of instruments.

Handbook of Ceramics Grinding and Polishing meets the growing need in manufacturing industries for a clear understanding of the latest techniques in ceramics processing. The properties of ceramics make them very useful as components—they withstand high temperatures and are durable, resistant to wear, chemical degradation, and light. In recent years the use of ceramics has been expanding, with applications in most industry sectors that use machined parts, especially where corrosion-resistance is required, and in high temperature environments. However, they are challenging to produce and their use in high-precision manufacturing often requires adjustments to be made at the micro and nano scale. This book helps ceramics component producers to do cost-effective, highly precise machining. It provides a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of ceramics—their properties and characteristics—and of the abrasive processes used to manipulate their final shape as well as the test procedures vital for success. The second edition has been updated throughout, with the latest developments in technologies, techniques, and materials. The practical nature of the book has also been enhanced; numerous case studies illustrating how manufacturing (machining) problems have been handled are complemented by a highly practical new chapter on the selection and efficient use of machine tools. Provides readers with experience-based insights into complex and expensive processes, leading to improved quality control, lower failure rates, and cost savings Covers the fundamentals of ceramics side-by-side with processing issues and machinery selection, making this book an invaluable guide for downstream sectors evaluating the use of ceramics, as well as those involved in the manufacturing of structural ceramics Numerous case studies from a wide range of applications (automotive, aerospace, electronics, medical devices)
