ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
This study aimed to evaluate the original (OR) and repair (RR) fracture resistance of a semi-interpenetrating polymer network (semi-IPN)-based short fiber-reinforced composite compared to dimethacrylate-based composite materials by means of the V-notch test. METHODS AND MATERIALS Circular specimens (5×2 mm) with a centrally machined 90° V-shaped notch were prepared. Four bulk fill (Filtek Bulk Fill, Venus Bulk Fill, TetricEvo Ceram Bulk Fill, SDR), three microfilled hybrid (GC-Anterior, GC-Posterior, Z250), one nanofilled (SupremeXTE), and two short fiber-reinforced (Alert, everX Posterior) composites were selected. EverX Posterior was the semi-IPN material. Specimens (n=12/group) were either dry or water stored for 7 and 30 days, respectively, at 37°C and then loaded in two-point load until fracture. One-half of each tested specimen was used for the repair procedure. Repairing surfaces were diamond-bur ground, etched, and treated with silane containing universal adhesive (Scotchbond Universal) before repair.RESULTS:
Three-way analysis of variance revealed a significant statistical difference between the groups ( p<0.05). The fracture resistance of dry-stored groups was greater than that of water-stored groups. The highest OR was observed for dry-stored Alert (23.4 N/mm), which significantly deteriorated in water (17.4 N/mm) ( p<0.05). The highest RR was observed for everX Posterior (20.0 N/mm), which did not deteriorate in water significantly (19.0 N/mm) ( p>0.05). The everX Posterior preserved the specimens' integrity at the final fracture load (ductile fracture), whereas all other materials fractured into two halves at the interface (adhesive failure).CONCLUSIONS:
The only material that provided enhanced repair strength that was close to the original cohesive strength of the material was everX Posterior. The endurance of repaired restorations can be improved by using semi-IPN-based filling material.
