  • Title: The flow properties of dental cements.
    Author: Wilson AD, Lewis BG.
    Journal: J Biomed Mater Res; 1980 Jul; 14(4):383-91. PubMed ID: 7400193.
    Abstract:
    The flow properties of several major types of dental cements were investigated using slow compressive strength and creep techniques. Considerable differences were found in their behavior. Whereas the phosphate-bonded and glass-ionomer cements exhibited brittle fracture, the other cements tended to distort to a greater or lesser extent under load. All cements showed some creep under load but the extent of this varied considerably; the creep of phosphate-bonded cements being very small and that of the eugenol and related cements considerable.
