Abstract
This study indicates that fractographic analyses can be productively performed on ceramic whole-crown failures. Optical examination under low incident lighting and wake hackle mapping were developed as promising techniques. Hoop stress was implicated as a concern in the three studied specimens, and should be considered when analyzing other whole-crown failures.
