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),…
Abstract Objectives This study aimed to investigate the durability of four adhesive luting systems bonded to dentin with and without simulated hydrostatic pulpal pressure (PP). Methods Composite blocks were bonded…
Abstract Objectives To carry out a meta-analysis in order to assess the influencing factors on retention loss and marginal discoloration of cervical restorations made of composites and glass ionomer (derivates)….
Abstract The effect of ageing in phosphate-containing solution of bioactive calcium-silicate cements on the chemistry, morphology and topography of the surface, as well as on in vitro human marrow stromal…
