Abstract Objectives The polyacrylonitrile (PAN)–poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) core–shell nanofiber reinforced dental composites have been investigated for their excellent interface adhesive, and this kind of novel dental composite has the potential…
Abstract Objectives This study evaluated the effect of surface treatments on the bond strength of fluorcanasite and lithium disilicate glass-ceramics, with the possibility of eliminating HF etching of these ceramics….
Abstract Objectives This study evaluated the initial and the artificially aged push-out bond strength between ceramic and dentin produced by one of five resin cements. Methods Two-hundred direct ceramic restorations…
Abstract Objective The result of this research was to develop a quantum mechanically based QSAR model for polymer flexural modulus from structural features of small oligomers of the polymers. The…
Abstract Objective The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of the microtensile bond test (μTBS) and the microshear bond test (μSBS) in ranking four dental adhesives according…
Abstract Objectives Consumption of acidic soft drinks may lead to the dissolution and softening of human enamel, known as erosion. The first aim of this in vitro study was to…
Abstract Objectives The aim of this research was to compare two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) tooth measuring techniques after subjecting enamel samples to tooth wear in vitro on an erosion–abrasion…
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of shrinkage strain, modulus, and instrument compliance on the polymerization shrinkage stress measurement of light-cured composites, and to…
Abstract Objectives The aim is to demonstrate significant polymerization shrinkage stress reduction in model resins through incorporation of addition–fragmentation chain transfer moieties that promote network stress accommodation by molecular rearrangement….
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the cytotoxic effect of the monomers isobutyl methacrylate (IBMA) and 1,6-hexanediol dimethacrylate (1,6-HDMA), the plasticizer di- n -butyl phthalate (DBP),…
