Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluates the mechanical and physical properties of 21 different dental dam sheets used for isolation, measuring parameters like thickness, rupture force, elongation, and ultimate tensile strength, alongside their costs.
  • Testing involved cutting samples and using a universal testing machine to assess properties while also examining the sheets' structure and composition through various methods including scanning electron microscopy.
  • Results showed variations in thickness and mechanical performance, with Flexidam being the thickest and the non-latex Sanctuary dam exhibiting the highest elongation, while the Bassi dental dam had the best ultimate tensile strength.
