Cutting efficiency of different diamond burs after repeated cuts and sterilization cycles in autoclave.

摘要: Context: The aim was to evaluate the cutting efficiency of different diamond burs after successive cuts and repeated sterilization in an autoclave. morphology grit sizes were analyzed correlated efficiency. Materials Methods: Ten medium-grit five manufacturers investigated (KG, KG Sorensen; TH, Tri-Hawk; KM, Komet; HC, Heico; FD, Frank Dental). Changes on composite resin blocks measured cycles. Grit by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) data statistically using 3-way ANOVA Tukey's test (α = 0.05). Results: Significant differences observed for (P
