    Sen, Sadri; Zamanlou, Hamid; Karabudak, Filiz; Süküroglu, Ebru Emine

    Gradual wear of opposing teeth is a normal phenomenon in human dentition. There is a need for quality dental restorative materials to repair or replace natural teeth to ensure a higher quality of life through dental health. One of the main physiological mechanism that exists in dental materials during normal muscle function is called abrasion. There are two types of that in teeth which are common; Two-body and three-body. If the teeth are contacted directly, it is referred to as two-body abrasion. However, when there is abrasive slurry-like food between the teeth, this abrasive is called to be three-body abrasive. Several types of materials are available in current dentistry for teeth restoration and replacement, and new materials are being promoted every year. Dental specialists need to understand the wear mechanisms of these new types of dental restorative materials, alone or in combination with either enamel or other dental restorative material. The present study evaluates the abrasive resistance of three restorative materials groups: direct composites, indirect composites, and ceramics. To define the resistance of the wear, the authors then perform a micro-wear test on chosen materials. The results show that the wear mechanism is abrasive due to its low hardness compared to zirconia ball. The wear path in the nanohybrid (Grandio (R), 87s% w/w (71s% volume) inorganic nanohybrid filler, BisGMA, UDMA, TEGDMA) sample was smooth and without particles. In this study wear FEM analysis calculated for all models and the answers compared with experimental data.

    As material science is integrated into medical science as in other fields, the variety, development and usage areas of biomaterials increase. One of the biomaterials in this variety is NiTi alloys. This study was focused on the coating of TiO2 layer by using the method of Micro Ark Oxidation with the aim of the improvement of surface and mechanical properties of Shapedmemory and bio material NiTi alloy. Structural properties of the coatings were analysed by of SEM and XRD. In vitro ability was investigated by soaking the coated NiTi samples in simulated body fluid (SBF) at temperature 37 degrees C for various time periods. After soaking, Ni+2 release was applied to the media where coated and uncoated shape-memory NiTi samples are available, and its control was made by means of ICP-MS device. The results also show that Toxic and carcinogenic effects of Ni+2 release is significantly reduced by the TiO2 coating. Thus, it is observed that the properties that limit the use of NiTi alloys has been substantially fixed by MAO coating. It was found that the bioactive properties of the TiO2 coated NiTi substrate increased by MAO method and at the end of the 72 hour, there was no statistically any cytotoxicity in cell viability compared to the NiTi substrate.

    Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films are suitable applicants for cutting tools due to their high hardness, low friction coefficient and wear rate. Doping metals in DLC films have been improved its tribological properties. In this study, titanium and tantalum doped hydrogenated DLC films were deposited by closed-field unbalanced magnetron sputtering system onto M2 high speed steels in Ar/N2/C2H2 atmosphere. The friction and wear properties of Ti:Ta-DLC film were investigated under different tribo-test conditions including in atmospheric pressure, distilled water, commercial oil and Ar atmosphere. The coated specimens were characterized by SEM and X-ray diffraction techniques. The bonding state of C-C (sp3) and C=C (sp2) were obtained with XPS. The tribological properties of Ti:Ta-DLC were investigated with pin-on-disc wear test. Hardness measurements performed by micro-indentation. Our results suggest that Ti:Ta-doped DLC film shows very dense columnar microstructure, high hardness (38.2 GPa) with low CoF (μ ≈0.02) and high wear resistance (0.5E-6 mm3/Nm).
