Laboratory Observations on the Behavior of Composite Dental Restoratives,

Abstract

Several properties of three composite dental restorative materials were determined. The overall behavior of two microfilled materials exhibiting organic-inorganic weight ratios in excess of 1.0 was inferior to that of a single-product containing significantly less organic matter. The routine clinical application of materials of the former type as alternatives to composites of more conventional composition (inorganic filler content greater than or equal to 70 per cent by weight) is not warranted.
