Abstract
The wear resistance of six types of composite resin veneering materials was determined in vitro by use of a three-body wear-testing device. This investigation examined the wear characteristics of the veneering composite resins in heavy occlusal contact areas. After repeated cyclic loading, wear values were measured with a profilometer, and surface textures were evaluated with a scanning electron microscope. All of the composite resin veneering materials were significantly more wear resistant than unfilled acrylic resin; but the composite resin materials demonstrated rougher surfaces than unfilled resin. Three of the composite resins exhibited fractures in the contact areas.
