Effect of Cavity Design on the Strength of Direct Posterior Composite Restorations: An Empirical and FEM Analysis
The aim of the present study was to verify the hypothesis that cavity design does not affect the strength of direct composite restorations as do material properties. Finite element modeling (FEM) and empirical testing were done for two cavity designs: a box shape (cube) and a concave shape (U). Two...
