Polymerization shrinkage stress of resin-based materials have been related to several
unwanted clinical consequences, such as enamel crack propagation, cusp deflection …

Objective The objective of this work, commissioned by the Academy of Dental Materials, was
to review and critically appraise test methods to characterize properties related to critical …

Objective This study evaluated the effect of different restorative techniques for non-carious
cervical lesions (NCCL) on polymerization shrinkage stress of resins using three …

Objective To compare strain and displacement of sculptable bulk-fill, low-shrinkage and
conventional composites as well as dye penetration along the dentin-restoration interface …

Clinical Relevance Restoring Class V cavities with a regular bulk-fill composite presents a
more favorable biomechanical behavior than restoring with a regular nano-filled composite …

Silver phosphate is a semi-conductor sensitive to UV-Vis radiation (< 530 nm). Exposure to
radiation removes electrons from the oxygen valence shell, which are scavenged by silver …

Objectives To evaluate “low-shrink” composites in terms of polymerization kinetics, stress
development and mechanical properties. Methods “Low-shrink” materials (Kalore/KAL …

Objective This study evaluated the effect of quantity of resin composite, C-factor, and
geometry in Class V restorations on shrinkage stress after bulk fill insertion of resin using …

Objectives The purpose of this study was to evaluate the 2-year success of resin composite
restorations in non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) using the direct or semi-direct …

The purpose of this study was to analyze the fracture resistance and marginal leakage of
noncarious cervical lesion (NCCL) restorations made of different restorative materials …
