Effect of Repeated Preheating and Light Curing Distance on Flexural Strength and Degree of Conversion of Two Resin-Based Materials
Dena Safwat Mustafa
Abstract:Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of resin-based material, repeated preheating and light curing distance on flexural strength and degree of conversion.
Materials and Methods:A total of 220 specimens were used in this study. One-hundred sixty rectangular specimens measuring 12mm x 2 mm x 2mm were dedicated for flexural strength (FS) using three-point bending test. Sixty disc-shaped specimens measuring 4mm x 2mm were dedicated for degree of conversion (DC) using ATR-FTIR spectrophotomete… Show more
