“…The clinical implication of this study is that the combination of preimpregnated glass fiber Stick and provisional material PMMA Jet, is a potential technique to avoid fractures in provisional partial dentures used for extended periods of time. The increased values of mechanical properties or resin materials reinforced with glass fibers compared to polyethylene were also reported in a literature review 26 …”

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of three different methods of fiber reinforcement (glass fibers preimpregnated, glass fibers nonpreimpregnated, and polyethylene fibers) on the flexural strength and modulus of elasticity of poly-methyl-methacrylate resin (PMMA) and Bis-Gma materials. Materials and methods:A total of 60 specimens of autopolymerizing PMMA resin specimens were fabricated using a stainless steel matrix with dimensions of (37.5 ± 2) × (3 ± 0.1) × (3 ± 0.1) mm according to the standards of ISO 10477. The autopolymerizing resins used in this study were: (a) JET, (b) TRIM, (c) PROTEMP. The fibers used in this study were STICK (Glass fiber preimpregnated), POLYDENTIA (Glass fiber nonpreimpregnated), RIBBOND (Polyethylene fiber). The specimens were tested by three-point bending test and the flexural strength and modulus of elasticity were recorded. The data of each resin type were analyzed by analysis of variance using a significance level of 0.05 to determine the mean differences. Results: The integration of reinforcing fibers in the mass of resins for provisional restorations increased both the flexural strength and the modulus of elasticity in all tested combinations compared to control groups. After the three-point bending test, the specimens were not completely fractured and the parts remained together due to the fibers. Conclusions: Fiber reinforcement is an effective method to increase mechanical properties of provisional restorative resins. Reinforcement with fibers enhances the flexural strength and the modulus of elasticity of the specimens compared to unreinforced (control) group. Clinical significance: The reinforcement of resin materials used for provisional restorations with fibers can increase mechanical strength and may improve the clinical performance and the longevity of provisional restorations during their clinical function.

“…The use of fiber of any type requires special attention to be paid to fiber careful filtration with the use monomers or specific adhesive materials. Proper fiber preparation ensures its good adhesion to composite [2,3,9,12,[17][18][19]. Location and distribution of fibers in a specimen is particularly important, and has been confirmed by numerous authors [10, 14-16, 20, 21].…”

“…The most commonly used composites are easily applicable, produce the desired aesthetic effect, exhibit lower polymerization shrinkage and strong adhesion to enamel and dentin. However, due to their relatively low flexural strength of approximately 90 MPa, attempts have been made to increase composite strength with a wide variety of reinforcing materials [1][2][3][4]. High tolerance to mechanical damage is particularly significant in composite restorations placed in premolar and molar region of jaws, where occlusal forces reach the value of 270 N [5].…”

Strength parameters of dental photopolymer reinforced with long glass and aramid as well as aramid-glass hybrid fibers was to comparison. Static strength tests of 40 light-curing composite specimens were performed with the use of Zwick 1435 testing machine and testXpert V.8.1 software. Flexural strength of aramid fiber reinforced polymer increased nearly three times, whereas flexural strength of polymer reinforced with glass fiber-twice.

Cechy wytrzymałościowe oraz niewielka masa spoczynkowa sprawiają, że materiały kompozytowe wzmocnione włóknem (FRC) znalazły szerokie zastosowanie w wielu dziedzinach stomatologii. W pracy przedstawiono tę grupę materiałów protetycznych z uwzględnieniem ich unikalnych cech charakterystycznych, postępowania klinicznego oraz opisu niepowodzeń, które mogą wystąpić w trakcie ich użytkowania w jamie ustnej. Materiały kompozytowe wzmocnione włóknem umożliwiają uzupełnienie braków zębowych różnej rozległości zarówno w przednich, jak i bocznych odcinkach łuków zębowych. Długoczasowa skuteczność leczenia sprawia, że FRC mogą być równorzędną alternatywą dla uzupełnień protetycznych, których retencję uzyskuje się wyłącznie w wyniku mechanicznego zakotwienia do zęba filarowego.
