intro to DMS Flashcards
behaviour of dental materials affects:
selection preparation placement performance pt expectations
CE mark
safety
not a guarantee that it is the best available
force outcomes
stretch/compress
deform - temp or permanent
fracture - failure
force equation
m x g
gravitational acceleration 10ms-2
types of force
compressive
tensile
shear
stress equation
force/unit area
Pa or N/m2
strain equation
change in length/original length
stress strain curve - gradient
EM
stress strain curve points
PL
fracture stress
EM/YM/rigidity/stiffness
stress/strain
MPa
E vs D strain
E fractures at less strain than dentine
fracture
large force causes catastrophic destruction of material’s surface
hardness
ability of surface to resist indentation (KHN)
100g indentor - soft = larger indentation
abrasion
loss of material surface layers due to grinding, roughened
fatigue
repetitive small stresses cause material fracture
repeated loads - small flaws/cracks grow/propagate
