Abstract

The thermal properties of dentine and tooth enamel affects the rate of response of the tooth nervous system to the temperature changes to which the tooth is exposed on a daily basis. Today almost all manufacturers of dental materials in their certificates of material quality describe material chemical composition, mechanical properties, process ability and aesthetic characteristics, while information about thermal properties (thermal conductivity, thermal capacity and temperature diffusivity) are not available. Within the interdisciplinary teamwork, thermal properties of five selected dental materials were measured and analyzed by modern Transient Plane Source (TPS) method in accordance with the standard ISO 22007-2. Thermal properties were measured at temperature interval between 0°C and 50°C.
