Aim: The purpose of this study is to assess the amount of surface wear and opposing wear of four Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing materials consisting of three hybrid materials (Vita Enamic, Cerasmart, Lava Ultimate) and a feldspathic ceramic (CEREC Blocs) after artificial aging. Materials and Methods: Samples were 400,000 mechanical loadings simultaneously with 500 thermal cycling, by using antagonist abrasive balls. The surface wear and roughness results were evaluated with one-way variance analysis and multiple comparisons were evaluated using the post-hoc LSD analysis methods (p =.05). Results: The surface wears of Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing materials were, in order from lowest to highest, CEREC Blocs, Vita Enamic, Cerasmart, and Lava Ultimate. The differences among all groups wear results were statistically significant (p <.05). After the chewing simulations of the antagonist balls were evaluated, there was only significant difference between the Cerasmart and Lava Ultimate (p <.05). Conclusions: The hybrid materials showed more surface wear than the feldspathic ceramic.
