Four aromatic, thermosetting, composite dental restorative materials were evaluated for their mechanical and physical properties. The properties of two materials approached those of dentin and dental amalgams. One of the materials tested appeared to have the necessary requirements for use as both an anterior and posterior restorative material.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
