Wear of human teeth: a tribological perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The four main types of wear in teeth are attrition (enamel-on-enamel contact), abrasion (wear due to abrasive particles in food or toothpaste), abfraction (cracking in enamel and subsequent material loss), and erosion (chemical decomposition of the tooth)

Benchmarking matching color in composite restorations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The purpose of this study was to investigate the color samples (A2, A3 and B1) of three different brands of resin composites using dentine masses. 135 discs were prepared (5 plates for each thickness, color and brand of composite material).

Polymerization shrinkage of dental composite resins [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine, 2001
Aesthetic materials have always been a priority for the restoration of anterior teeth; increasingly, they have also gained prominence in the restoration of posterior teeth. This has been due to their advantages as an alternative to amalgam. Their drawbacks however, can include poor marginal adaptation, postoperative sensitivity and cuspal movement ...

A review on enhancements of PMMA Denture Base Material with Different Nano-Fillers

open access: yesCogent Engineering, 2021
Poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) is the dominant acrylic that is widely used to produce partial and complete dentures. Denture fractures are caused by fatigue owing to repetitive masticatory, flexural and impact loads produced by dropping.

Fibre-reinforced composites for dental applications [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2008
Publisher Summary A new group of non-metallic dental biomaterials that are increasingly being used in dental applications are Fibre-Reinforced Composites (FRCs). FRC is a material combination of polymer matrix and reinforcing fibres. Fibres of the composite act as the reinforcing phase when the load is applied to the composite. Load is transferred to–
