AbstractPreload is the primary reason why pre-tightened tooth connections (PTTC) can transfer relatively large loads. However, creep of the composite would cause the preload relaxation, resulting in reducing bearing capacity of the connection. To study the preload relaxation of PTTC caused by the creep of composites, a prediction formula is deduced by converting the viscoelastic problem to an elastic problem using Laplace transform. Meanwhile, long-term experimental research on the preload relaxation of composite pre-tightened tooth connection with different initial preloads and different geometry sizes was made. The theoretical results are compared with experimental data obtained by long-term experiment, and the results indicate that the calculation formula can predict the preload relaxation well in linear viscoelastic state. The preload relaxation mainly occurs at the beginning of loading and it tends to be steady in the middle and later periods.
