   Dental composites. Glass ionomer cement - composite resin spectrum of restorative materials used in dentistry. Towards the GIC end of the spectrum, there is increasing fluoride release and increasing acid-base content; towards the composite resin end of the spectrum, there is increasing light cure percentage and increased flexural strength.

3. Dental material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_material

   Dental restorative materials are used to replace tooth structure loss, usually due to dental caries (cavities), but also tooth wear and dental trauma. On other occasions, such materials may be used for cosmetic purposes to alter the appearance of an individual's teeth.

   Chrome-cobalt disc with bridges and crowns manufactured using WorkNC Dental CAD/CAM. CAD/CAM dentistry is a field of dentistry and prosthodontics using CAD/CAM (computer-aided-design and computer-aided-manufacturing) to improve the design and creation of dental restorations, [1] [2] especially dental prostheses, including crowns, crown lays, veneers, inlays and onlays, fixed dental prostheses ...

5. Resin-retained bridge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resin-retained_bridge

   Composite is usually fibre-reinforced with glass, ultra-high molecular polyethylene or Kevlar fibres. Areas predicted to have high stress, benefit from having fibres in one direction (unidirectional) which can improve the mechanical properties. These bridges can be fabricated in the mouth during a single visit or indirectly in a dental laboratory.

6. Dental compomer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_compomer

   Compomers absorb water more rapidly than dental composites due to the addition of hydrophilic resin monomers within the matrix (see Composition section above). As such, water equilibrium is reached within days rather than weeks, months or even years in the case of dental composite materials. This property has the advantage of compensating for ...

7. Bis-GMA - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bis-GMA

   Bis-GMA (bisphenol A-glycidyl methacrylate) is a resin commonly used in dental composite, dental sealants. [1] [2] and dental cement. It is the diester derived from methacrylic acid and the bisphenol A diglycidyl ether. Bearing two polymerizable groups, it is prone to form a crosslinked polymer that is used in dental restorations.
