Popis: The present study evaluated the flexural properties of a new temporary splint material, G-Fix, for use in dental trauma splints in comparison with other resin materials. Four types of resin materials were considered in the present study: MI Flow II, light-cured composite resin (MI); G-Fix, light-cured resin for splinting teeth (GF); Super-Bond C&B, adhesive resin cement (SB); and Unifast III, self-cured methyl-methacrylate resin (UF). The flexural properties of these four materials were tested according to ISO 4049. The flexural strength significantly increased in the order of UF (64.9 MPa)
