Why are mechanical properties important in dentistry?
Why are mechanical properties important in dentistry?
- Restorative materials in dentistry are not subject to any force.
- Dentistry only focuses on the chemical properties of materials.
- Restorative materials in dentistry must withstand force during fabrication or mastication. (correct)
- Dentistry does not require materials to withstand force.
