Popis: Objectives. The contraction stress of a silorane-based material and a new low-shrinkage nanohybrid composite were compared to three conventional dimethacrylate-based resin composites using two different measuring systems. It was hypothesized that the silorane-based material and the low-shrinkage nanohybrid composite would exhibit lower contraction stress than dimethacrylate-based composites irrespective of measuring system. Methods. materials tested were Filtek Silorane LS (3M ESPE), Venus Diamond (Heraeus Kulzer), Tetric EvoCeram (Ivoclar Vivadent), Quixfil (Dentsply DeTrey), and Filtek Z250 (3M ESPE). Shrinkage stress was assessed using a stressstrain analyzer consisting of two opposing attachments, one connected to a load sensor and the other fixed to the device, or a system fixed to a universal testing machine with an extensometer as a feedback system. All specimens were light-cured with 20J/cm2; the contraction force (N) generated during polymerization was continuously recorded for 300s. Contraction stress (MPa) was calculated at both 40s and 300s. Data were statistically analyzed by three-way ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc test (a=0.05). Results. Venus Diamond exhibited the lowest stress under both experimental conditions. Stress values scored as follows: Venus Diamond
