Physical Properties of Materials

Density: The mass of a material per unit volume, affecting its strength, durability, and radiopacity.
Thermal Conductivity: The ability of a material to conduct heat, influencing its behavior during temperature changes.
Thermal Expansion: The change in material size in response to temperature changes, affecting its fit and stability.
Optical Properties: Refractive index, transparency, and opacity, influencing the material's appearance and aesthetic appeal.

Solubility: The ability of a material to dissolve in a solvent, affecting its durability and resistance to corrosion.
Reactivity: The material's ability to undergo chemical reactions, influencing its stability and compatibility with oral tissues.
Corrosion Resistance: The material's ability to resist chemical degradation, ensuring its longevity and performance.
pH Sensitivity: The material's response to changes in pH levels, affecting its behavior in the oral environment.

Strength: The material's ability to resist deformation and fracture, ensuring its durability and performance.
Toughness: The material's ability to absorb energy and resist crack propagation, influencing its resistance to fracture.
Hardness: The material's resistance to scratching and abrasion, affecting its wear resistance and durability.
Elasticity: The material's ability to return to its original shape after deformation, influencing its fit and stability.

Biocompatibility: The material's ability to interact with oral tissues without causing harm or adverse reactions.
Toxicity: The material's potential to release toxic substances, affecting its safety and compatibility with oral tissues.
Biodegradability: The material's ability to break down over time, influencing its longevity and potential for adverse reactions.
Immunogenicity: The material's potential to trigger an immune response, affecting its compatibility with oral tissues.

Color: The material's ability to match the natural color of teeth, influencing its aesthetic appeal.
Translucency: The material's ability to transmit light, affecting its natural appearance and blend with surrounding teeth.
Opacity: The material's ability to block light, influencing its ability to mask underlying structures and stains.
Surface Texture: The material's surface roughness and smoothness, affecting its appearance and ability to resist stains and plaque accumulation.
