Abstract
Abstract The aims of the present study were to develop a dental composite filled with silanized nanoalumina and then to investigate the effect of nanoalumina filler on the two-body and three-body wear behavior under distilled water and food slurry medium, respectively. The dental composites were fabricated by adding silane treated nanoalumina filler particle in the weight percentage of (0–3 wt.%) to the matrix of BisGMA, TEGDMA, CQ and EDMAB. Two-body and three-body wear tests were performed in dental wear simulator machine with varying parameters such as normal load, chewing speed and chamber temperature in such a way as to simulate mastication process. Taguchi’s orthogonal array (L16) design, steady state condition and ANOVA were applied to evaluate the optimum parameter for minimum wear and effect of each parameter on the wear performance of dental composites. The finding of the result indicated that mean volumetric wear rate of dental composite in distilled water (i.e. two-body abrasion) was 33.23% more than that of the same composite in food slurry condition (i.e. three-body abrasion).
