Abstract
An apparatus and method for determining the tensile strength of dental materials utilizing a mold. The dental material is placed in the mold and is adhered to a surface. The mold containing the dental material is then engaged with a pulling device which subjects the mold to a measured force to disengage the dental material from the surface. This provides a measure of the tensile strength of the dental material.
