Chemical, optical, and morphological properties of TPU and PET-G samples after aging in artificial saliva: an in vitro study

Abstract Background Thermoplastic materials, such as glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate (PET-G) and thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), undergo alterations due to environmental factors in the oral cavity, which can affect their composition and surface properties over time. While previous studi...
