The spectrum of composites: new techniques and materials

D Fortin et al. J Am Dent Assoc. 2000 Jun.

Abstract

Background: During the past 25 years, advances in adhesive technology and composite-based resins have provided dentists and patients with new treatment options. This technology provides patients with more tooth-conserving and highly esthetic restorations.

Clinical implications: This article reviews advances in composite-based resin materials. It discusses composition and classification of current resin-based composite. It also reviews techniques for successful placement of these materials and provides a discussion of current concepts of polymerization.
