Intermediate restorative material (IRM®) is the most commonly used temporary filling material. This research mixed IRM with Polyamide 6 (Nylon 6) fibers, forming the Nylon/IRM tooth root composite filling materials. Tests such as setting time, degree of solubility, compressing strength, and micro-leakage were carried out to examine the properties of the Nylon 6/IRM® composite material. The result showed that there was no significant difference in the setting time and degree of solubility after adding the Nylon 6 fibers. The loading after the yielding point of the Nylon 6/IRM® was more than 250 N; micro-leakage was found on the 13th day.
