Water sorption and filler characteristics of composites for use in posterior teeth. -

The purpose of this investigation was to determine the water sorption and solubility, as well as the filler composition and extent of chemical degradation in water, of eight different posterior composites.

Porosity in posterior composite resins -

The percent pore area and the mean pore size were measured in specimens made of nine brands of composite resin restorative materials. The overall percent porosity ranged from 0.01 to 4.5%

Development of carbon/graphite fiber reinforced poly (methyl methacrylate) suitable for implant-fixed dental bridges. -

Conventional bridge framework of gold alloys are expensive. After in vitro investigations, materials were selected for preparing bridges from carbon/graphite reinforced poly(methyl methacrylate) on titanium implants

Composites for use in posterior teeth: mechanical properties tested under dry and wet conditions -

The purpose of this investigation was to determine some mechanical properties of eight different posterior composites, and how they are affected by water sorption.

Implant-fixed, dental bridges from carbon/graphite fibre reinforced poly (methyl methacrylate) -

Conventional bridge frameworks of gold alloys are expensive. A method for preparing bridges from carbon/ graphite reinforced poly(methyl methacrylate) on titanium implants is described.
