Relation between in-vitro wear and nanomechanical properties of commercial light-cured dental composites coated with surface sealants

Relation between in-vitro wear and nanomechanical properties of commercial light-cured dental composites coated with surface sealants

This work investigates the correlation between the in-vitro wear resistance and the nanomechanical properties of dental sealants commercially available. Mechanical properties, namely hardness (H) and elastic modulus (E), were assessed by nanoindentation technique. The coated samples presented lower...
