Modern dental composite materials are thus a blend of glass or ceramic particles dispersed in a photopolymerizable synthetic organic resin matrix.
Properties of dental ceramics and composites.
Ceramic composition and properties atomic and molecular nature of ceramic materials and their resulting characteristics and performance in industrial applications.
The polymer materials are blended with the finely divided inorganic material such as barium aluminosilicate glass or other glass composition having an effective amount of radiopaque oxide that.

Ceramics are widely used for making artificial denture teeth crowns bridges ceramic posts abutments and implants and veneers over metal substructures 1 9.
Industrial ceramics are commonly understood to be all industrially used materials that are inorganic nonmetallic solids.
The concern that a ceramic will fracture in service remains a problem for ceramic alloy and all ceramic restorations alike although the newest crystalline ceramics see figure 14 3 are beginning to challenge this notion.

Their properties vary over a wide range.
Silica barium silicate glass barium glass barium borosilicate glass zirconia and short e glass fiber as fillers were used.
Suggested the effect of a short fiber as the filler on the physical and depth of cure properties of dental restorative composite materials and compared it with eight other commercial dental composites.
Esthetically these materials are preferred alternatives to the traditional materials in order to meet the patients 39.
New microstructures have also been developed by the industry in order to offer ceramic and composite materials with optimized properties i e good mechanical properties appropriate wear behavior and acceptable aesthetic characteristics.

The term dental ceramics comprises a wide variety of materials that reaches from filled glasses to nearly dense sintered ceramics from products that are shaped from powders and melts to components milled from blanks before or after sintering.
Ceramics or porcelains are chemically intimate mixtures of metallic and non metallic elements that allow ionic k2o and or covalent bonding sio2 to occur.
Part i an overview of composition structure and properties.
