Rheology of Luting Cements,

Abstract

A rheometer has been developed to simulate the extrusion of luting cement from beneath a full crown during seating using clinically realistic shear rates. Five luting cements were studied and differences in rheological behavior were illustrated. These measurements demonstrate the importance of consideration of the effects of shear rate on viscosity when evaluating a cement for optimal clinical utilization. (Author)
