Summary: | Objectives
This study aimed to analyse loss of enamel worn against composite, leucite glass ceramic or enamel antagonists under non-erosive and alternating or simultanuous erosive-attritive conditions.
Materials and methods
Flat human enamel specimens were loaded (1 Hz, 300 g loading weight, each subgroup
n
= 12) with antagonists made from a hybrid-composite (Z250, 3 M Espe), a nano-composite (Filtek Supreme XTE, 3 M Espe), leucite glass ceramic (IPS Empress CAD LT, Ivoclar Vivadent) or enamel. Specimens were either submitted to mechanical loading in mineral solution (60 s) or to loading under alternating or simultaneous erosive conditions. For alternating erosion-attrition, specimens were eroded by citric acid (pH 2.6, 60 s) and then loaded with the respective antagonist for 60s. For simultaneous erosion-attrition, specimens were loaded with the respective antagonist while being immersed in citric acid (pH 2.6, 60 s). After each cycle, specimens were stored in water for 1 h. After 18 cycles, enamel loss was calculated profilometrically and statistically analysed by two-way ANOVA and Tukey’s post-hoc tests (
