Dental filling materials are subjected to cyclic compression in the mouth. Nine resin-based composite filling materials were subjected to 2000 compression cycles between either 0 and 12 kg, or 0 and 40 kg. Surface deformation was measured as the diameter of the compression scar and surface microhard

The flexural fatigue test equipment developed was used to study the fatigue behavior of dental restorative composites, using a "staircase" approach. Three commercial composites were tested after dry and wet storage conditions. The findings indicate that the method is accurate and reliable, and that
Fatigue crack propagation in a notched specimen under cyclic loading was investigated for a series of experimental composite resins and six commercial composites. The fatigue resistance was measured as a function of filler content, water absorption, and post-curing temperature. Constants A and rn of
