Abstract
The main challenges facing composite restorations are secondary caries and bulk fracture. The objective of this study was to investigate the Ca and PO4 release and strength of whisker-reinforced composites containing nano-sized dicalcium phosphate anhydrous (DCPA, CaHPO4) particles. A spray-drying process was used to synthesize the nano DCPA particles. Flexural strength (mean ? sd; n = 5) for the composite containing 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) at DCPA:whisker mass ratio = 1:2 was (156 ? 11) MPa. It was similar to (148 ? 9) MPa for the composite without HEMA, and (167 ? 23) MPa for the heat-cured composite (p > 0.1). They were higher than (103 ? 32) MPa of an inlay/onlay control and (118 ? 22) MPa of a hybrid control (pCitation
