Figure 6

Comparison of edge grinding of maxillary CT (group 2) and mandibular CT (group 3) at varying rotational speeds. Data for maxillary CT pulp horns 1 (n = 20) and 2 (n = 20) were recorded during grinding the buccal tooth edge, data for pulp horns 3 (n = 16), 4 (n = 20) and 5 (n = 19) were collected during grinding the palatinal tooth edge. Data for mandibular CT pulp horns 1 (n = 18) and 2 (n = 18) were collected during grinding the buccal tooth edge, data for pulp horns 3 (n = 17), 4 (n = 16) and 5 (n = 17) were recorded during grinding the lingual tooth edge. a) Grinding of buccal and palatinal tooth edges of maxillary CT (group 2) at 6,000 rpm. b) Grinding of buccal and palatinal tooth edges of maxillary CT (group 2) at 12,000 rpm. c) Grinding of buccal and lingual tooth edges of mandibular CT (group 3) at 6,000 rpm. d) Grinding of buccal and lingual tooth edges of mandibular CT (group 3) at 12,000 rpm.
