Hardness Evaluation of Dental Composite with Ceramic Fillers

Abstract:

In this study, new dental composites materials were developed. The two composites systems composed of zirconia (ZrO2), alumina (Al2O3) and silica (SiO2) (composites A) and zirconia (ZrO2), calcium (CaO), and silica (SiO2) (composites B) were synthesized through sol-gel method. These two systems were combined with urethane dimethacrylate and tetraethylene glycol dimethacrylate with 1% chitosan as coupling agent to build up the dental composites material. The resulting composites were subject to evaluation by microvickers hardness test and X-ray diffraction. The microvickers hardness test revealed that the hardness value for composites A and B were 24.48 and 21.9 VHN, respectively. Furthermore, the data were submitted to t-test (α=0,01) and it showed t count of both samples was 0,871 which means between the -t1-½α< t <t1-½α thus showing statistically the same average hardness value of both samples. Eventually, the new dental composites could be anticipated to apply in dental composites filler. The hardness results support the XRD result revealed that tetragonal crystal phase will help the transformation toughening mechanism and cubical crystal phase of zirconium dioxide. Both of the crystal phases were formed to stabilize the zirconia.
