Background/purpose: Pressable all-ceramic materials are widely used in dentistry. Determining the effect of repeated firing on flexural strength will help to improve these materials so that they can remain resistant to fracture in restorative work. The aim of this study was to determine the change in the flexural strength of pressable all-ceramic materials after repeated firings, which may be unavoidable when color and shape corrections are necessary for use in dental restorations.
