The double-torsion technique has been used to determine critical stress intensity factor (K1,) values for a range of composites and glass ionomer cements used in restorative dentistry. From these values and determined elastic modulus ( E ) and tensile strength (cT) values, two other fracture propert

β¦ Synopsis
Abstract
Thermal conductivities were determined for five commercial composite restorative materials, one composite crown and bridge cement, two cavity βbases,β and poly(methyl methacrylate). In addition, the effect on thermal conductivity of concentration and type for five resinβreinforcing fillers was investigated. Depending upon type and concentration of filler, the composites ranged in thermal conductivity from somewhat less than that for dentin to slightly over twice that value. Because of their good marginal adaptation, the thermal conductivity of composites must either be closely matched to tooth structure or a base should be used in deep restorations.

## Abstract In the oral environment, dental restorative materials are exposed to temperatures ranging from 10Β° to 50Β°C. Since the properties of many polymeric materials are sensitive to temperature of this magnitude, it is important to define the effects of service temperature on the mechanical pro
Thermal conductivity data are presented for several samples: Gd2 (SO4) 3 8H2 0 pressed powders with and without copper fibres, pressed powders of NaCI and KCI, cloth base phenolic sheet, epoxy resin-bonded glass fibre laminate, and AGO T graphite in the presance of helium gas.

An instrumented dental wear test simulator was developed to simulate jaw movement in the chewing process between two molar teeth. It simulated the natural impact with sliding masticatory action, known as bruxing (defined as the gnashing, grinding, or clenching of teeth) type of wear, in order to sim
The degree of microleakage between a restoration and the cavity wall is difficult to quantify objectively. A silver-staining method is used and compared to the radioisotope method with results that indicate a superior definition and more accurate terpretation of film or, photograph. evaluation of mi
