The purpose of this study was to compare the fatigue and tensile strengths of radicular dentin. Forty bovine lower central incisors were used, twenty teeth for the fatigue test and twenty teeth for the tensile test. Bovine teeth were each sectioned into coronal and radicular portions. Dentin slabs of 1mm thickness were prepared along the radicular tooth using a low-speed cutting machine and trimmed into dumbbell-shaped specimens. A dentin slab was harvested from each tooth. Subsequently, fatigue and tensile tests were performed in Hank's balanced saline solution at 37 °C. The staircase method was employed to determine fatigue strength and its standard deviation. Fracture surfaces were observed by scanning electron microscopy. Mean fatigue strength and tensile strength were 44.3±5.0 and 84.4±8.3 MPa, respectively. The fatigue strength of radicular dentin was significantly lower than the tensile strength. The fatigue strength of radicular dentin was only approximately one half of the tensile strength.

D007180 Incisor Any of the eight frontal teeth (four maxillary and four mandibular) having a sharp incisal edge for cutting food and a single root, which occurs in man both as a deciduous and a permanent tooth. (Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992, p820) Incisors

D003804 Dentin The hard portion of the tooth surrounding the pulp, covered by enamel on the crown and cementum on the root, which is harder and denser than bone but softer than enamel, and is thus readily abraded when left unprotected. (From Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992) Dentine,Dentines,Dentins
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D013314 Stress, Mechanical A purely physical condition which exists within any material because of strain or deformation by external forces or by non-uniform thermal expansion; expressed quantitatively in units of force per unit area. Mechanical Stress,Mechanical Stresses,Stresses, Mechanical
D013718 Tensile Strength The maximum stress a material subjected to a stretching load can withstand without tearing. (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 5th ed, p2001) Strength, Tensile,Strengths, Tensile,Tensile Strengths
D016880 Anisotropy A physical property showing different values in relation to the direction in or along which the measurement is made. The physical property may be with regard to thermal or electric conductivity or light refraction. In crystallography, it describes crystals whose index of refraction varies with the direction of the incident light. It is also called acolotropy and colotropy. The opposite of anisotropy is isotropy wherein the same values characterize the object when measured along axes in all directions. Anisotropies
