Evaluation of Wear Resistance of TrueDent™ Denture Teeth.

Comparison of TrueDent denture to materials currently on the dental marketplace.

To produce long-lasting, aesthetic dentures and temporaries, an appliance’s polymer material must show adequate resistance to wear, which is caused by a tooth’s contact with other teeth and other external forces. Wear is a multifactorial phenomenon and caused by Attrition and Abrasion. 

In 2022, Dr. John A. Sorensen, DMD, PhD, FACP, a professor in the Department of Restorative Dentistry and Director of Research for the Graduate Prosthodontics Program at the University of Washington, conducted a study on the wear resistance of various denture teeth, including TrueDent monolithic dentures  3D printed on the Stratasys J5 DentaJet with TrueDent resin.
