Can fiber reinforcement enhance the load-bearing capacity of self-adhesive restorative materials? An in vitro study.

This study evaluated whether fiber reinforcement improves the load-bearing capacity and fracture behavior of two experimental self-adhesive restorative materials compared with conventional materials. The experimental materials were prepared by adding 20 wt% of glass fibers to the powder of a resin-modified glass ionome...

Comparative Study of Direct Resin Composites with Different Formulations

Objectives: The aim was to evaluate the mechanical, physical, and surface properties, as well as the microstructure, of three direct resin composites with different formulations (CLEARFIL AP-X, MAJESTY ES Flow, and MAJESTY ES-2) from the same manufacturer. Methods: Mechanical properties, including flexural strength, fl...
