[Comparative study on the abrasion behavior of composite filling materials].
Twenty-two commercially available composites, a new resin without inorganic filler and two amalgams have been investigated to compare their abrasive behaviour. In laboratory tests, an abrasion model of tooth against filling has been simulated. The results indicate a dependence of the abrasive behaviour on the type of filler in the different composites. Composites with quartz as filler have the greatest resistance to abrasion, whereas those with lithium-aluminium-silicate show the strongest abrasion. Mean abrasion values are obtained for the composites with barium-glass or a mixture of barium-glass and quartz as filler. The resin and the two amalgams have abrasion values comparable to the abrasive resistant composites.
