Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The assessment parameters are average[Ra] roughness and total roughness[Rt] through optical 3D profilometry. Remaning calculus index[RCI] , Loss of tooth substance index[LTSI] and Roughness loss of tooth substance index[RLTSI] through scanning electron microscopy.Timepoint: One time assesment post invitro instrumentation.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary assessment parameters are root mean square roughness [Rq] and average maximum deviation [Rz] using optical 3D profilometry.Timepoint: One time assesment post invitro instrumentation.
