Sintering Temperature-Dependence on Radiopacity of Bi(2−x) ZrxO(3+x/2) Powders Prepared by Sol-Gel Process

Bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) is an effective additive used to enhance radiography resolution for dental materials. However, there are potential concerns regarding its biocompatibility and connection to tissue discoloration. In the present study, we modified the radiopacity properties of Bi2O3 with zirconiu...
