Description

The measuring errors and dependences on loading condition such as load, load-holding time and loading speed, were examined for Micro-Vickers hardness testing.The distribution of microhardness of human teeth especially cementum which was difficult to measure in the past, was determined.Micro-Vickers hardness of human dentin depends on load, load-holding time and loading speed.The measuring apparatus should be chosen strictly, because the measuring error increases with a lighter load.The distribution of microhardness of human cementum could be measured by this method of microhardness test.The microhardnesses of peritubular dentin and intertubular dentin could be measured using a supermicro load, 0.2g.
