Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare two testing methodologies employed for assessing the polymerization shrinkage stress of dental resin composites. Ten commercial resin composites were investigated (EverX Posterior & Flow; G-ænial Anterior, Posterior, A'CHORD & Universal Injectable; Filtek One Bulk Fill & Universal Restorative; SDR flow+ and Aura Bulk Fill). Photoelastic and contraction forces measurement methods were performed. The slope of the linear trendline and C-factor of specimens were calculated. The shrinkage stress values (range between: 6.4-13.4 MPa) obtained by the photoelastic method were higher for all resin composites than the values obtained by contraction forces measurements (range between 1.2-4.8 MPa). However, there was a strong linear correlation between these methods (r=0.8). The use of both investigated methods revealed important information about the shrinkage behavior of the restorative resin composites.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
