Dentistry. Polymer-based crown and bridge materials. | Status: Superseded, Withdrawn

1 Scope This International Standard classifies polymer-based dental crown and bridge materials and specifies their requirements. It also specifies the test methods to be used to determine compliance with these requirements. This International Standard is applicable to polymer-based dental crown and bridge materials for laboratory-fabricated permanent facings or anterior crowns that may or may not be attached to a metal substructure. It also applies to polymer-based dental crown and bridge materials for which the manufacturer claims adhesion to the metal substructure without macromechanical retention such as beads or wires. This International Standard is not applicable to polymer-based materials that are used to make crowns, veneers or repairs in the operatory, nor does it cover the application of those materials to stress-bearing areas of posterior teeth.
