Clinical Evaluation and Laboratory Wear-Testing Methods

Being the hardest organ in body, human teeth have a very unique structure. To understand the wear behavior of human teeth, the properties of materials and structures need to be evaluated. There are several quantitative and qualitative methods to measure or assess these properties. This chapter reviews evaluation techniques to understand their unique properties for both mammal and human teeth. Chapter 6 gives a more detailed discussion on artificial dental materials.
