Abstract Objectives Inlay-retained fixed partial dentures are conservative prosthetic restorations. Their failure resistance is influenced by the stress distribution that depends on the material properties as well as the loading…
Abstract Objectives The C-Factor has been used widely to rationalize the changes in shrinkage stress occurring at the tooth/resin-composite interfaces. Experimentally, such stresses have been measured in a uniaxial direction…
Abstract Objectives The study evaluates properties of an experimental dental composite consisting of a porous thermally sintered nano-silica as filler. The properties are compared with those of an experimental composite…
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the effects of silica (SiO 2 ) (0.5 wt%) and zinc oxide (ZnO) (0.25 wt%) dopants on the mechanical and biological properties of tricalcium phosphate (TCP)…
