An abrasion test for composite resins.
An abrasive wear test for composite resins was proposed. A slurry of glass pearls and abrasive particles were used. The abrasive effect was examined for different particle sizes. Particle sizes were found which gave the same order of wear as found clinically for an amalgam, a composite resin, and unfilled resin.
