Sumario:Purpose This in vitro study aimed to compare the marginal fit and internal adaptation of computer-aided designed and computer-aided manufactured (CAD-CAM) zirconia and hybrid ceramic crowns on heavy chamfer and shoulder finish line designs using silicon replica method. Materials and methods Forty die samples were divided into four groups of 10 dies each. Out of 40 diecasts scanned, zirconia crowns were milled on 20 casts (10 prepared with shoulder and 10 prepared with heavy chamfer finish line design), while hybrid ceramic crowns were milled on the rest of the 20 casts. After milling crowns, the silicone replica technique measured the marginal fit and internal adaptation. Results The heavy chamfer finish line design provided a better marginal fit than the shoulder finish line design for zirconia and hybrid ceramic crowns. Hybrid ceramic crowns had a better marginal fit and internal adaptation than zirconia crowns, both at heavy chamfer and shoulder finish line design. The gap at the margin was less than the axial and occlusal walls, and the maximum gap was observed in the occlusal area. In addition, the marginal gap was less than the internal gap, which showed a positive correlation with each other. Conclusion The study concluded that the difference in CAD-CAM materials and finish line designs influences marginal fit and crown restoration's internal adaptation. A heavy chamfer finish line design provides a better marginal fit for zirconia and hybrid ceramic crowns than a shoulder finish line design. Hybrid ceramic crowns have a better marginal fit and internal adaptation than zirconia crowns in heavy chamfer and shoulder finish lines.
