To compare the marginal and internal fit of monolithic zirconia (MZ) 3-unit fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) fabricated using two CAD/CAM workflows: full-chairside (FCH) and lab (LAB).The right maxillary first premolar and first molar were prepared for MZ 3-unit FDPs on a typodont. CEREC Primescan digitized the typodont model 15 Omes. A total of 30 FDPs was fabricated using two processes: FCH (n = 15) and LAB (n = 15). FCH and LAB FDPs were designed using CEREC SW 4.5.1 and Exocad and milled using CEREC MC X and Zirkonzhan 600/V3, respectively. A fast-sintering protocol was used in both groups. A dual-scan technique was used to assess the cement space at the occlusal surface (OC), axial wall (AX), and margin (MA). Statistical analysis of the results was performed using univariate ANOVA with Scheff. post hoc test (a = .05).Measurements in the FCH and LAB groups were within the clinically acceptable marginal and internal fit. The fit of FCH FDPs at MA, AX, and OC was 77.50 ± 29.99 μm, 99.67 ± 21.58 μm, and 150.03 ± 30.78 μm, respectively. The fit of LAB FDPs at MA, AX, and OC was 100.27 ± 27.06 μm, 116.53 ± 17.90 μm, and 142.30 ± 19.00 μm, respectively. The difference between the two groups was not statistically significant.MZ 3-unit FDPs fabricated using FCH have clinically acceptable marginal and internal fit. This result verifies the ability of FCH workflow to fabricate MZ mulOunit FDPs in a single visit.
