The aim of this study was to investigate the extent of polymerization (Ep) in terms of polymerization rate of UDMA/TEGDMA resin mixtures and its composite resin, by using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) technique employing a photopolymerization apparatus. The resin mixtures used in this study consisted of urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) as a base monomer and triethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) as a low viscosity monomer. The concentration of TEGDMA in the mixed monomer was varied to 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 mol %. Additionally, using a base monomer consisting of 60 mol % UDMA and 40 mol % TEGDMA, four kinds of composites with silica filler of 0, 20, 40, 60, and 70 wt %, were prepared in this study. The general reaction profile and Ep values were obtained from the DSC curves. Increasing the concentration of TEGDMA resulted in a decrease in the viscosity of the UDMA/TEGDMA mixture, a delay in the time to maximum polymerization rate, and an increase in the Ep values of the resin mixtures. Furthermore, Ep values decreased with increasing filler content between 0 and 60 wt % but did not decrease further between 60 and 70 wt %.
