Abstract
The purpose of this investigation was to determine a static elastic modulus of dentine using a three point beam test and a dynamic modulus in the frequency range of 0.1 Hz and 10 Hz across a temperature range of 27-37 degrees C. At body temperature, the mean static modulus was 8.6 GPa, (standard deviation 0.86 GPa). The dynamic test produced a range of modulus values. At 0.1 Hz the modulus ranged from 14.3 to 15.2 GPa; for 1.0 Hz the range was 14.6-15.5 GPa and for 10 Hz the range was 14.9-15.8 GPa. The results are of value in the design and analysis of restorative materials.Entities:
