Title: Effects of cement bases on the stresses in amalgam restorations. Author: Farah JW, Hood JA, Craig RG. Journal: J Dent Res; 1975; 54(1):10-5. PubMed ID: 1053748. Abstract: A computerized dental model was used to study the stress induced in a Class 1 amalgam restoration when supported by bases of varying materials and thickness. Under the same load, the maximum tensile stresses and deflections in the amalgam restoration increased at least threefold with a zinc oxide-eugenol base as compared with a ZnPO4 cement base.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
