Abstract

An advanced wetting method is used to prepare a composite with a high content of ceramic particles in a matrix of photocured polymethylmethacrylate. The method allows for the preparation at minimum stirring of high quality samples with up to 59% solid in volume. The samples present reasonable flow characteristics prior to curing, with high hardness and fracture toughness in the fully cured state. Practical implications of the preparation method for dental restorative applications are studied. The method is also useful in the preparation of similar composites for other practical applications.
