[Relative abrasion of toothpastes--a toothpaste for everyone].

Since our last publication in this Journal in February 1988, many new dentifrices have appeared on the market, prompting us to revise our scale of relative abrasion for the most current ones. This relative abrasion scale is determined by weight loss of mechanically brushed specimens (methyl methacrylate) with a slurry from each dentifrice.

Materials Testing

[Bond strength of etched enamel to direct composite resins, to indirect composite resins and to etched and silanized porcelain].

The adhesion to enamel of composite resin inlays are not documented as much as porcelain inlays and direct composite resins. This study evaluates the adhesion of a light cured composite resin (P-50) used in an indirect technique and secondarily polymerized by heat. No significant differences were found between adhesion of P-50 used with an indirect technique and adhesion of porcelain (Mirage). P-50 used with the direct technique yield adhesion values significantly lower than the indirect techniques.
