The efficacy of reinforcement of glass fibers and ZrO2 nanoparticles on the mechanical properties of autopolymerizing provisional restorations (PMMA)

Objective: to investigate and compare the reinforcing effects of glass fibers (GFs) and ZrO2 nanoparticles at different ratios on the Flexural Strength (FS), Microhardness (MH), and Surface Roughness (SR) of autopolymerizing provisional PMMA. Methods: A total of one hundred and twenty specimens of a...
