Effect of orientation on the in vitro fracture toughness ofdentin: The role of toughening mechanisms

Journal Article · · Biomaterials

A micro-mechanistic understanding of bone fracture thatencompasses how cracks interact with the underlying microstructure anddefines their local failure mode is lacking, despite extensive research nthe response of bone to a variety of factors like aging, loading, and/ordisease.
