Resin-based dental composites for tooth filling

摘要: Abstract Since the introduction of direct resin composite in mid-1950s, there has been a driving force toward progressive development such materials. The growing esthetic demands with conservative approaches led to great shift use various restorative procedures. Resin main constituents are matrix, reinforcement fillers, silane coupling agent, initiator–activator system, inhibitor, and optical modifiers. Properties dental dictated by influence each these components. Different shortcomings composites still raising concerns researchers clinicians keeping room for continuous enhancement. drawbacks materials polymerization shrinkage, technique sensitivity, wear, discoloration, cytotoxicity. This chapter will discuss different classes regarding their composition, properties, clinical applications. In addition, recent compositional manipulative modifications aiming improve success durability less sensitivity be reviewed.
