Objective: Understanding the mechanical properties of dental materials is essential for proper indication and a correct functioning in the oral cavity, as it allows the dentist to choose the material that presents better performance during mastication. The aim of this study was to evaluate the compressive strength of Ionofil Molar and Vitremer, according to the exposure time in artificial saliva. Materials: 5 samples were prepared for each material evaluated at 0, 168 and 504 hours in artificial saliva at 37o Celsius, according to the specifications suggested by ANSI/ADA specification N o 66. The compressive strength was determined by subjecting the samples to an Instron strength-testing machine at a load speed of 1 mm/min. A test of homogeneity of variance was conducted; normality was determined by Kolmogorov-Smirnov, and ANOVA. Tukey’s test was performed to determine if significant differences existed between variables. Results: Vitremer compressive strength did not show statistically significant differences over time (p=0.282), unlike Ionofil Molar, which did present differences between times (p=0.011). Besides, there were no statistically significant differences in the samples without submerging (p=0.091), unlike after one to three weeks of exposure, were a difference did exist (p=0). Conclusion: Vitremer has greater compressive strength over time, without showing significant changes in time after being immersed in saliva, unlike Ionofil Molar, whose resistance decreased significantly under the same conditions.
