The Effect Of Thermocycling On The Fatigue Behavior Of Dental Composites, Noor Hayaty Abu Kasim Abu Kasim N.H.

Noor Hayaty Abu Kasim Abu Kasim N.H.

The effect of thermocycling on the fatigue behaviour of 2 microfilled composites; Silux Plus3 and Heliomolar2 and 3 hybrid composites; P502, Cleafil Photo Posterior3 (both light-activated) and Cleafil Posterior3 (chemically-activated) was investigated using a ball mill. Ninety specimens (2 x 2 x 25mm) of each material were used. The specimes were divided into 3 groups of 30 and were stored for 24 h in water at 37oC (Group A), subjected to 104 thermal cycle over 45 days (Group B) and stored in water at 37oC for 45 days (Group C). Ten specimens of each material were tested in a 0.5 …
