Dental composite materials: highlighting the problem of wear for posterior restorations

Le Roux, Andre Rayne; Lachman, Nirusha (South African Dental Association, 2007)

Manufacturers of dental composites promote their products as having ideal wear resistant characteristics. Evaluation of the problems that persist with wear of dental composites is made. Recommendations for further research ...
Flexibility of experimental alumina/feldspar and SR ADORO dental composites

Le Roux, Andre Rayne (South African Dental Association, 2010)

Introduction: Flexure of a dental composite can be detrimental to the success of a restoration. Flexibility considerations are thus important when comparing dental materials to optimize the success of resin restorations. Aims ...
Wear and flexural strength comparisons of alumina/feldspar resin infiltrated dental composites

Le Roux, Andre Rayne; Lachman, Nirusha; Walker, Mark; Botha, T. (South African Dental Association, 2008)

Introduction: Incorporating a feldspar chemical bond between alumina filler particles is expected to increase the wear-resistant and flexural strength properties. Aims and Objectives: An investigation was carried ...
