Abstract
The goal of this research is to prepare and characterize PMMA/TiO2 and PMMA/TiO2-GO nanocomposites for potential application as dental materials. PMMA/TiO2 and PMMA/TiO2-GO with various percentages (1 wt%, 3 wt%, and 5 wt%) of TiO2 nanoparticles were prepared using the manual mixing method. The mechanical and physical properties of nanocomposites were improved and compared with pure PMMA. According to the findings of this study, PMMA nanocomposites have the potential to be used in dental applications.
