Provisional crown and fixed partial denture materials: Mechanical properties and degree of conversion
Dental Materials, 11/08/07

Balkenhol, M., et al. - This study aimed to investigate the flexural strength (FS) and flexural modulus (FM) of temporary crown and bridge materials (t-c&b) at different storage times and to identify possible correlations between the mechanical properties and the degree of conversion (DC)...FS and FM of t-c&bs significantly depend on the time after mixing. Dentists should be aware of the fact that the mechanical stability of temporary crowns is comparably low in the first hours after fabrication. The DC does not allow drawing conclusions about the mechanical stability of a t-c&b
