Popis: The aim of this work was the development of a series of glass fiber reinforced composites (FRCs) for CAD/CAM applications in dentistry and the characterization of their structure by SEM, Raman and FTIR spectroscopy. A selection of 2 different types of resins (R1 composed from 25%Bis-GMA, 40%UEDMA, 35% DMTEG and R2 composed from 65%Bis-GMA, 35% DMTEG) with 2 different types of hybrid filler (F1 with 42% quartz, 42% radiopaque glass and 16 % hydroxyapatite and F2 with 90% quartz and 10% colloidal silica) and 3 different types of E type fiber glass geometries (veil 30g/m2, twill 163g/m2 and textile 300g/m2) in 4, 6, 8 and 10 layers were used in this in vitro study. Raman analysis, showed a powerful interaction between the polymer and the fiber glass. FTIR and SEM data revealed that the different fiber glass geometries were well incorporated inside the resin, resulting an acceptable homogeneity. Within the limitation of this study, it is possible to achieve a fiber glass reinforced composite for the use of CAD/CAM technology. Further investigation must be done in order to test all the properties of the new material.
