A 3D analysis of mechanically stressed dentin?adhesive?composite interfaces using X-ray micro-CT

Evaluation of microleakage in class V composite restorations using dye penetration and micro-CT

“…This process is repeated along the length of the specimen, and with the use of specific algorithms, it may be possible to generate a 3D reconstruction of the specimen. In some recent studies, the 3D reconstructions have already been used for the evaluation of composite polymerization shrinkage, interface leakage, and analysis of the structures at the dentinadhesive-interface [24][25][26][27].…”

Non-Destructive Examination of Interfacial Debonding in Dental Composite Restorations Using Acoustic Emission

“…To see whether debonding has occurred inside the restoration, these methods require destructive sectioning of the specimens which may introduce more uncertainties to the results due to possible machining damage. As an alternative, nondestructive methods, such as X-ray micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), have received much attention in recent years in the study of interfacial bonding/debonding of composite restorations [19]. Micro-CT is a computer-aided, 3D reconstruction of a structure or material that can be sliced virtually along any direction to gain accurate information on their internal geometric properties and structural parameters.…”
